Slowly and steadily, the globalist elite are giving up even pretending any more. National sovereignty is being steadily crushed under the foot of transnational oligarchies. Few worse than the UN. Despite its foundational principle of the sanctity of national sovereignty, the UN is behaving more and more like a global
If BFD readers think that their mainstream media are ludicrously paranoid about the festering racist underbelly of the Land of the Long White Supremacy, rest assured that even Paddy Gower has nothing on the arse-clowns in the Australian media. For over a week last month, the Nine Entertainment mastheads and
As I wrote recently, clearly the focus groups in Victoria have shifted their sentiment on lockdowns and curfews. How else to explain Daniel Andrews’s sudden turnabout to backing PM Scott Morrison’s roadmap for ending lockdowns and opening up Australia? Shifting polls remain the almost certain reason for Andrews’
Well, now we can add another phrase to the lexicon of authoritarianism: ‘‘medical retirement’’. This is the Orwellian phrase coined by the CEO of a mega-corporation to justify forcing medical procedures on its employees. CEOs have a knack for spinning snazzy euphemisms for vile behaviours: “downsizing”, “unallocated”, “normal involuntary attrition”

John Maynard Keynes famously said that when the facts change, he changed his mind. Your average politician would say, instead: “When the polls change, I change my mind.” Victorian premier Daniel Andrews has changed his mind. Clearly, the polls have changed. Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has largely backed Prime Minister
It’s a flashback to the most searing images of the Cold War: families separated by a border wall and police patrols. Except, we’re not talking about Berlin, 1961. No, 60 years later it’s Australian families who are being kept apart, even on Father’s Day, by a
Mary Politicians in Australia are digging themselves a deep hole in their efforts to coerce mass vaccination of the population against Covid-19. The problems arise at several levels. First, it is now very clear that the protections offered by the Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines are not long-lasting. Israel, with one
“Nudge theory” is the idea that the hoi polloi are too stupid to be left to their own devices so it’s up to their “betters” to herd them with carrots and sticks. This has been the ruling conceit of the elite classes ever since Plato grumbled that all that
How ever did we win World War II? Were we always this fearful and risk-averse? Or are we reaping the grim harvest of generations raised in padded cells by an obsessively safety-first culture? Once, at least some of us seemed to really believe that “Who Dares, Wins”. The ruling creed

For most of the last year or so of the Covid pandemic, New Zealand and Australia have looked on the United States with smug contempt. The shoe is very much on the other foot, now. We here in the Antipodes remain under the harshest lockdowns outside of a welded-shut apartment
Forget kangaroos, surfers and Crocodile Hunters. Australia is, apparently, the Land of the Vaxholes. Led by the nose by a shameless media pack, Australians have swung from panicking that Covid vaccines were going to kill us all, to insisting they’re the absolute greatest thing, ever. Now it’s anyone
Our neighbour Australia has woken up to the fact that trying to get rid of Covid doesn’t work. Even places like NSW and Victoria have woken up. NZ Herald reports. There have been 107 Covid-related deaths since the Sydney outbreak began in mid-June, and there are currently 957 people
It’s official: nothing, but nothing, is safe from the “diversity and inclusion” crowd. Once upon a time, it was your Obergruppenfuhrer types who dedicated all their time to meticulously analysing racial quotas. Now, it’s the Cancelkulturfuhrers of the Twitterreich casting their gimlet eyes over everything, even children’s
