In my recent chat with Cam on Reality Check Radio, I mooted the possibility that the “Indigenous Voice” referendum may be called off. After all, Anthony Albanese hasn’t announced an actual date. Under electoral law, the referendum isn’t locked in until a date is announced. Albanese keeps delaying
If the past two weeks have been the “best yet” for the Yes campaign in the “Indigenous Voice” referendum, then they really are rooted, to use a great Australian vernacular. After all, the past fortnight saw the release of polls showing that even women voters are deserting them in droves.

There’s no imported idea so bad or demonstrably so that the Albanese government isn’t prepared to fail at it, too. From nonsensically parroting the American “First Nations”, to “Net Zero”, there’s nothing that’s proved so disastrous that Albo and crew aren’t eagerly shouting, “We want
How long before Australians start booing the tedious, fatuous, insulting, endless “Welcome to Country” nonsense? So far, a great many of us have so far settled for quietly rolling our eyes as we are browbeaten with this fabricated nonsense at weddings, school assemblies, sports matches and even every day plane
Make no mistake: Dan Andrews absolutely will survive the debacle of the Commonwealth Games cancellation. This is Victoria, after all: the Stockholm Syndrome State. The state where a premier mired in multiple scandals and corruption investigations, who unleashed the world’s longest lockdowns and the worst Covid figures in the
It’s been quite the couple of days for the IStandWithDan crowd. If you thought the sight of thousands of North Koreans ecstatically singing, His brilliant ideals represent our goals, the Brilliant Commander’s will is the people’s victory, was the most robotic display of mass indoctrination you’ve
It’s funny, how choosey the left can be when it comes to statistics. When it suits them, they’ll bellow and shriek about a disproportionate statistic relating to their chosen victim groups. Especially when it suits their narrative about supposed “racism”. Other statistics that show the same groups in
Will losing the Commonwealth Games be Dictator Dan’s last hurrah? In a recent chat on Reality Check Radio, Cam raised the future prospects of Victorian premier, Dan Andrew. I pointed out that his last election victory was far from as emphatic as most think. Much of the heavy swing
As I repeatedly warn BFD readers, “Always assume a ‘fact-checker’ is trying to bullshit you”. That’s because “fact-checkers” are in reality almost always Confirmation Bias Machines whose purpose is to mislead and to reinforce biased narratives. The ABC and its partnership with RMIT FactLab is a case in point.
As I’ve asked several times: are these people barking mad? Or just colossally stupid? I’m talking, of course, of the zealots of the green-left and their one, big idea: “Net Zero”. People like Australia’s Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen. No wonder Anthony Albanese wants
A couple of interesting things happened in Australian politics over the weekend. One drew a lot of attention, the other passed almost without mention. Yet, both signal trouble ahead for the Albanese government. The first was the Fadden by-election, which delivered a thumping win to the Coalition. Of course, as
