Women, Know Your Place

Women, Know Your Place

As the controversy over trans rights trampling women’s rights continues, the media-political left are making their allegiances clear: sorry, girls, you lose. Women — real women — your only option is to shut up and know your place. Independent NSW MP Alex Greenwich has called for an end to the “culture

Deves Just Gives Us Some Truth

Deves Just Gives Us Some Truth

As J. K. Rowling has drily observed, transgender activists might better persuade us that they’re not a threat to women, by not actually threatening women so often. Like any woman who speaks publicly against transgender ideology, Rowling has been subject to a barrage of death threats, including having her

If Not Morrison, Then What?

If Not Morrison, Then What?

There ought to be few illusions that PM Scott Morrison is fighting the 2022  election against the odds. While Morrison should not be underestimated as a campaigner — and so far, he has scarcely set a foot wrong — he has apparently spent the last three years doing everything he could to

A Force to Be Reckoned With

I need to pay more attention to minor party announcements, because I had no idea One Nation launched their Tasmanian campaign at Launceston’s Tailrace Centre last week – with none other than the Great Lady herself hosting. Make no mistake, I loathed Pauline Hanson when she first exploded on the

Election: Albo Out for a Week

Election: Albo Out for a Week

As we near the end of the second week of the Australian election campaign, events are taking a turn for the dramatic again. Opposition leader Anthony Albanese has been forced off the campaign trail by Covid, Labor’s China ties are coming back to bite, and PM Scott Morrison has

“Each Way Albo” Strikes Again

“Each Way Albo” Strikes Again

“Each- Way Albo” and “Scotty from Marketing” are both at it again on what is emerging as the defining Culture Wars issue of the election: transgender ideology versus women’s rights. PM Scott Morrison, who first backed, then backed away from, Liberal candidate Katherine Deves’ stance on transgender “women” competing

Labor Sails Right Back into Boats Trap

Labor Sails Right Back into Boats Trap

You’d think Labor would have learned to stay a million miles away from the issue of illegal immigration, by now. No matter what the nosey-nannas and inner-city pearl-clutchers might say, Australians long ago made up their minds about queue-jumpers in people-smuggling boats crashing our borders. Every time it’s

What Are the Second Bananas up To?

While most of the attention of the Australian election campaign is focussed on the main stage and the two headline acts, there’s plenty of action going on in the sideshows. In fact, the sideshow alley of this election is in many ways the one to watch, given that a

What Ardern Could Teach Aus Pollies

What Ardern Could Teach Aus Pollies

Ok, this is basically the sentence from my worst nightmares, but if Anthony Albanese wins the Australian election, he needs to take just one leaf from Jacinda Ardern’s playbook. Ooh, I feel a little queasy after typing that. In fact, whoever wins the election should follow Ardern’s lead,

Mediscare III: The Return of the Fib

Word on the hustings is that Anthony Albanese’s disastrous first week has forced Labor strategists to frantically re-calibrate their campaign. Policy announcements are apparently being hastily re-scheduled — including what presumably would have been Labor’s last-week big guns. The frenzied re-scheduling is also playing havoc with Labor’s preferred

Albo’s Got Them Ol’ Campaign Blues

With the Easter break over, the Australian federal election campaign is set to renew in earnest. But if Anthony Albanese was hoping for a campaign resurrection after the tribulations of last week, he has another thing coming. As BFD readers may recall, Albanese fell flat on his face out of

Easter Brings a Welcome Break from Campaigning

Easter Brings a Welcome Break from Campaigning

Well, it’s good to know that the legacy media even in Australia are playing catch-up to The BFD. The day after we ran the headline Can’t Tell His Arse from His Albo, the West Australian ran an almost identical headline on its front page. While it’s almost
