We all know Victorians are mad — after all, they voted in Dan Andrews twice, and by all accounts they’ll do it again. Of course, I’m being merely cynical and disparaging, here. Because Victoria really does have a massive mental health problem — and it can largely be sheeted home

Thomas Sowell has written that one of the most destabilising forces in modern times has been second-generation-bourgeois “intellectuals”. These are people who inherited the hard-won wealth of parents or grandparents, and who are often the first of their families to attend university. Lacking any real struggle in their lives, and
Who can forget the unedifying sight of Jacinda Ardern, pontificating and mugging for the adoring press, at the 2019 Pacific Islands Forum? But Ardern wasn’t only playing to the cameras: watching with smirking approval as she lambasted Australia was the Chinese delegation. The Pacific panjandrums just held their hands
As you should all be aware, Lushington Dalrymple Brady is a nom de plume, and it’s a lot more interesting than my real name, believe me. But, despite its ordinariness, it’s amazing how many people manage to misspell it. Especially baristas. Mostly, this just amuses me. But, according

Every time I think we’ve reached peak climate stupidity, the climate cult goes right ahead and proves me wrong. The latest lunacy from the fool’s parade who’ve been glueing themselves to roads and infuriating commuters with their fancy-dress parades is a monumental folly to be dumped in

1980s rock group Little Heroes sang that Melbourne Just Isn’t New York. They’re being proved right, yet again. Although it might be a bit like the old East Berlin. New York’s Central Park is indelibly associated with the iconic horse-drawn carriages. In more recent years, Melbourne has
Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.” It was actually Ernest Benn who said it, not Groucho Marx — although I’m sure Groucho would have agreed wholeheartedly. Especially if he’d lived to see Australian Prime Minister Scott
Plus ça Change, as they say in France: “the more things change, the more they stay the same”. It’s coming up on three years since Victorians made Jeff Kennett premier, and, as it was back then, the state is an economic basket-case, thanks to a Labor government. Of course,

Have you ever noticed that the loudest woke screechers are almost invariably the most privileged? We have the likes of Barack Obama lecturing working shmos about their “privilege” from any one of his mansions. Then there’s the odious Megan Rapinoe. Sporting a perpetual sourpuss, the purple-haired harridan — whose own
In a dark day for Australian democracy, Victoria’s “Dictator Dan” seems certain to get the absolute power he’s always wanted for Christmas. In return, Victorians are getting protected wombats and more rubbish bins. Welcome to Parliament of Wombats, where a gaggle of micro-party MPs almost no-one’s ever
