They just won’t learn. Yet another multi-billion dollar corporation has shed a massive slice of its value, just to pander to creepy autogynephile men. Whether it’s Bud Light, Hershey, Gillette or Adidas, companies continue to pay more attention to their uselessly parastic ‘DEI officers’ and ignore their infuriated
Grab the popcorn, the left are about to start fighting again. Once again, the in-fighting is brought on as a consequence of unions actually remembering to back the interests of workers rather than inner-city, laptop-class leftists. Major unions are pressing the federal government to reduce the ability of “clueless activists”
Success, as they say, has many friends, while failure is an orphan. And when the grandiose schemes of the unelected elites go bung, they vanish faster than a black father who went to the store to buy cigarettes. Where, after all, have all those “experts” who showered their wisdom on
As I wrote recently, the repeated insistence that illegal immigrants in the US are less likely to commit crimes than citizens is a myth based entirely on a handful of crank “studies” by a single pro-open borders activist. Nevertheless, by dint of endlessly repeating the lie, the left-media have erected
The famous saying is: “If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog”. Kevin Rudd might want to start touring the animal shelters for a mate or two. The congressional Republicans most likely to come to Kevin Rudd’s defence after he endured sharp criticism from Donald Trump have
Remember when Jacinda Ardern wanted to make “happiness” the centrepiece of her achievements? First, there was the “wellbeing” budget, then “Gross National Happiness” — a measure, curiously, only elsewhere used in the Kingdom of Bhutan. More about that later. So, how did New Zealanders’ happiness fare, under the benevolent iron fist
You have to love it when the left eat their own. Not only is it invariably comedy gold, but some telling truths can inadvertently fall out. Imagine, for instance, if there was a debate on banning Nazi insignias and Eric Abetz weighed in on behalf of the National Socialists by
Have we indeed reached Peak Woke? By which of course, I do not mean a peak of Wokeist drooling idiocy. Like all human stupidities, that one is a never-ending river of lunacy. No, what I mean is that we appear to have reached the end of the tether of normal
If you’ve never been to Hobart’s Museum of Old and New Art (Mona), well… you’re not missing much. Well, that’s not entirely true: you’re missing an architecturally stunning building — filled with absolute, overpriced tat. I’ll give owner David Walsh credit for giving back to
At last, Donald Trump has finally said something that all Australians (minus one) can agree on! Donald Trump has declared Kevin Rudd “not the brightest bulb” and suggested the former Labor prime minister wouldn’t be welcome in Washington as ambassador under a second Trump presidency. In an interview with
Kiwibuild? Oh, you lot across the ditch are so amateur when it comes to obviously ludicrous housing policies. 100,000 new homes in ten years? Pfft. Albo upped the ante on Jacinda by promising to build one million new homes in five years. Take that! And, of course, it’s
Better hold off on that cash-splashing for a while, Britt. Ever since she trousered $2.4 million of Australian taxpayers’ hard-earned, Brittany Higgins and her boyfriend have been whooping it up in exotic locales from the Seychelles to the South of France. But, even as the payout was made, eyebrows
The towering art critic Robert Hughes once remarked that, if we thought ’80s art was bad, ’90s art was going to be even worse. Things haven’t improved in the decades since. Hughes never, to my knowledge, ventured an opinion on graffiti “artist” Banksy before his death, but I can’
So-called “Critical Social Justice Theory” is an inbred, bastard offspring of Marxism, so willfully stupid absurdity is in its DNA. According to its cretinous tenets, there are only two classes: the oppressed and the oppressors. The supposedly oppressed are ipso facto virtuous, and united in their struggle against the evil
As I reported for The BFD, the Chinese Communist Party poured rivers of money into getting Labor elected in 2022. They can’t say they haven’t got their money’s worth. The Albanese government has reportedly removed ASIO boss Mike Burgess and ASIS chief Kerri Hartland from its National
In an early Pogues song, The Boys from the County Hell, Shane McGowan promises, “lend me ten pounds and I’ll buy you a drink”. But that “Irish logic”, as my grandmother used to call it, is a paragon of generosity compared to the Albanese government. After bleeding Australians dry
