As I reported yesterday, it’s plain which Australian political party China wants in power. The Chinese Communist Party is doing everything in its power to buy the next election for Labor. Whether its Labor powerbrokers lobbying for China and hobnobbing with accused Chinese spies, CCP-connected businessman handing over literal
“Fancy having one of them lovely things, with its Heat-Ray wide and free!” — H. G. Wells, The War of the Worlds. While Trevor Mallard makes a goose of himself with childish tactics like turning on sprinklers and playing Barry Manilow, the Australian Federal Police are not playing such silly games.
An alleged Chinese spy has been caught trying to bankroll CCP-“sympathetic” candidates and buy influence in parliament. After the last two years of relentless diplomatic and economic warfare against Australia by China, not to mention China’s threats of launching actual warfare against our friends and allies, you’d
Nobody does hypocrisy quite like the green-left. Especially wealthy women in the elite suburbs. These are the women who screech about “the glass ceiling”, even though they earn one hundred times what most women ever will. They clutch their pearls about [asylum seekers] illegal immigrants, even while they remain ensconced
As Judith Collins once said of Jacinda Ardern’s constant professions of “kindness”, the more earnestly a man reassures you of his honesty, the more carefully you should watch your pockets. As Ardern’s behaviour in recent months especially has shown, her self-vaunted “kindness” looks more like cheap window-dressing for

Playing up sectarian divisions has never gone well in Australian politics — especially not for Labor. This is probably why, since the days of the Labor split, Catholic voters abandoned the party in droves over its embrace of communism. The split condemned Labor to decades in the wilderness. Half a century
As I’ve written elsewhere, Scott Morrison’s campaign slogan for the upcoming election seems to be, “Hey, at least I’m not Anthony Albanese!” To which, long-suffering Coalition voters might feel entitled to respond, “Are you sure about that?” Well, to give what little credit Morrison might be due,
With an election only months away, conservative apologists for the Morrison government — if there’s any left — are going to have to come up with a better campaign slogan than At least he’s not Anthony Albanese! Because it’s beginning to look like all they’ve got. Peta Credlin,
As I recently wrote, Australian PM Scott Morrison’s announcement of cash bonus payments to aged care workers is a long-overdue recognition of what is a poorly-paid workforce of predominantly middle-aged, blue-collar women. New polling suggests that many voters agree, and that boosting the pay of aged-care workers could be
Canberra is a special kind of place. “Special”, in the sense of the sort of “very special” people the Hallmark channel makes teary melodramas about. In the sense that we don’t let Canberrans play with the sharp scissors. Of course, as they never tire of telling you, Canberra has

Did you hear about Scott Morrison giving Labor and the Greens $1 billion to fund their election campaigns? Well, not quite: not even ScoMo is that incomprehensibly stupid. But he’s done the next most idiotic thing, handing the ABC and SBS $3 billion over the next three years. Making
Can Scott Morrison stand for anything? With an election due in months, more and more, exasperated Coalition voters are asking why they should even bother. If they wanted a weak, left-wing government they’d vote for the Greens — and at least know that the Greens believe their woke garbage. I’
