As Australia’s political show-trial of the century (so far) winds down to its close, the opposing arguments have boiled down to what rape cases almost always do: he said, she said. Rape accused Bruce Lehrmann’s lawyer has told jurors they can’t “be satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt”
No wonder “A Curse on the Jews” extremist academic Jay Tharappel feels right at home in the Labor party. His new leader doesn’t just post chummy selfies with the odious Jeremy Corbyn, he follows eagerly in his anti-Semitic wake. The Albanese government has ignited a diplomatic furore with Israel
One never hears stories of Germans in the 1930s clamouring to get their yellow stars. Because who would actually want to be oppressed? Yet, for all that we’re told how systemically oppressed Aboriginal Australians and Maori are, there’s a notable rush to “identify” as “indigenous”. Suddenly, everybody wants
It looks as though we’re living in the 70s again. No, I’m not talking about the fashionable left’s renewed sympathy towards normalising paedophilia, which reached its previously oleaginous apex in the “sexual liberation” 70s — I’m talking about the weather. Namely, that it’s bloody cold and

The Great Reset rolls on. Europe is already at the “forced collectivisation” stage — with New Zealand and Australia not far behind. Almost as if they’re operating to a plan, left-wing governments on both sides of the Tasman are following the exact template laid out in the Netherlands. “Cow taxes”
Has anyone heard from Tim Flannery, lately? Australia’s formerly vociferous Climate Commissioner, who is usually as averse to grabbing a headline as Siouxsie Wiles is to grabbing a quick dip in Judges Bay during lockdown, has been unusually silent for months. I’m beginning to get a bit worried

The backlash against the ubiquitous, fatuous “Welcome to Country” nonsense in Australia is growing. And it’s not just coming from unruly soccer crowds or right-wing politicians. A growing number of Aboriginal Australians are going public that they’re fed up with “bullshit” symbolism in their name. For the unfamiliar,
As the trial of Bruce Lehrmann, accused of raping Brittany Higgins at Parliament House in 2019, remains on hold, the social media left are in full flight. Higgins has been “unavailable to take the stand”, mid-testimony, all week. That hasn’t stopped her supporters screeching day and night. How dare

Scratch a sanctimonious Green and you’ll find a raging hypocrite scarcely concealed beneath the surface. This has been true of the left, of course, since the earliest days of socialism, when the Bloomsbury Circle would privately sneer at the “awful” working classes they pretended to champion. The Soviets had
Nothing tells us that “green” is a massive scam so clearly as that it’s attracting so many scammers. Flies are irresistibly attracted to honey, and the biggest honey-pot right now is the massive piles of taxpayer’s “green” cash. A close second is the virtuous gullibility of “green” consumers,
Policy made in a panic rarely makes for good policy. Neither does the union tail wagging the Labor dog yet again. Both are on full display in Anthony Albanese’s panicked rush to be seen to be doing something on energy prices. The panic is understandable, of course. Energy prices
The contemporary left are tantrum-throwing toddlers whose sole moral compass is infantile resentment. Resentment mostly at the giants who founded the very liberal democracy that allows them to have their little hissy-fits without being summarily put against the wall and shot. Burning flags and smashing statues is getting old. Defacing
