Ignoring Won’t Make It Go Away
Here’s a test of famous sayings by two powerful women on each side of the world and the political spectrum. First, American journalist Ann Coulter: “The longer we go without being told the race of the shooters, the less likely it is to be white men.” “Coulter’s Law”
CNN: As Fair and Impartial as Ever
Recent presidential debates have blown out of the water any lingering claims the American mainstream media might have had to “objectivity”. In 2016, hosts CNN primed Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton with leaked questions. In 2020, Democrat Joe Biden was allowed to get away with spouting blatant whoppers, denying the veracity
What Are the Groomers up To, Today?
For all the furious denial from the LGBTEIEIEO lobby that their movement has become a grooming front, even the most pathologically “progressive” parent surely can’t help but notice all the, well, actual grooming going on. At this point, so-called “Pride” looks like little more than NAMBLA with rainbow
What They Won’t Say about Egypt
When Egyptian president Anwar Sadat signed a peace treaty with Israel, Islamists within the army orchestrated his assassination. This dichotomy – official co-operation with Israel, coupled with covert sympathy for anti-Semitic Islamic ideology within the military – persists in Egypt today. The Egyptian military, like Iran and Qatar, knows Hamas’
The Global Greenlash Isn’t Looking Good for the Greens
The Australian Greens have rarely garnered more than 11–13 per cent of the vote. Moreover, their vote is almost exclusively concentrated in the wealthiest, inner-city suburbs of the biggest cities. But it’s notable that, every time they’ve wielded political clout – always courtesy of a Labor government
It Really Isn’t Easy under Albanese
So, how bad is inflation in Australia? Just ask anyone who works in retail. As one retail worker recently told me, a customer was irate to discover that, in a matter of weeks, one of their favourite products had nearly doubled in price. It’s an extreme example, perhaps, but
Not the Messiah They’re Telling You
Frankly, I’d hoped to avoid having to write anything about Julian Assange, I really had. Unfortunately, the puzzling fangirling of so many on the right for this unpleasant propagandist, and their strangely credulous willingness to parrot the talking-points of the left, conspired to force my hand. Many years
The Antarctic Is Just Fine
Whenever an eco-alarmist tries to scare you, they almost always employ one or both of two gambits: ‘x amount per year’ and ‘on record’. With regard to the first, it always sounds scary, but what does it actually mean? One we’re all familiar with is the Amazon rainforest:
Who Are the Rats, Now?
Any doubts that the Australian Labor Party have sold their souls to pander to the Muslim vote have been dispelled for good. The party’s kid-gloves treatment of ‘rat’ Fatima Payman gives the jig away for all to see. Western Australian senator Fatima Payman has crossed the floor to
It’s Good to Be the Ruling Elite
If there’s one thing the new elite are good at, it’s looking after themselves. ’Twas ever thus, of course, but to damn them with faint praise, the old money at least had some vague notions of noblesse oblige. Today’s elites have only one moral compass: gimme, gimme,
Plenty of Clowns Left in This Circus
The circus that keeps on giving just keeps rolling on. I’m referring, of course, to the Lehrmann-Higgins saga. If you thought it was all over with the defamation trial which sensationally ended with a judge just totally reckoning that Bruce Lehrmann probably did rape Brittany Higgins. That despite,
Bobbing Back to the Top of the Punch Bowl
Metaphors of putting monkeys in charge of the banana plantation come to mind. Forget the inmates running the asylum: that happened decades ago. But the appointment of Matt Kean as the new head of the Climate Change Authority is a new low, even for that benighted taxpayer-funded sinkhole. Kean
The Pylon Fell Over
We really do live in a Clown World. The official explanation for the pylon collapse that blacked out the entirety of Northland reads like something from an old John Clarke and Bryan Dawe satire. Transpower chief executive Alison Andrew has confirmed maintenance crews removed all the nuts at the bottom
