Climate Activist MP Secretly Pockets Coal Cash

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

Politicians Break Faith on Religious Freedom

Politicians Break Faith on Religious Freedom

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

An “Invisible Man” Isn’t Good Enough

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,

Is Defending the Indefensible Really Good Enough?

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,

Is Aged Care the “Mining Vote” of the Next Election?

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

ACT Chief Minister’s Sneer at Convoy

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

Scott Morrison Thinks He Can Win over the ABC

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?

Can Scott Morrison Stand For Anything?

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’

Canberra Clamps Down on the Honkening

In 2020, Melbourne’s police not only stood by, but joined in massive Black Lives Matter protests. Scant months later, they used rubber bullets and capsicum spray on anti-lockdown protesters. Where BLM protesters were not so much as fined, police smashed lockdown protesters, including old ladies, into the concrete. The
