For Heaven’s Sake, Scotty — Lead!

If Scott Morrison can stand up to Xi Xinping, surely he can stand up to Daniel Andrews, Mark McGowan and Annastacia Palaszczuk? In fact, given that the first two are more-or-less puppets of the CCP, gormless little Mini-Xi’s, it should be even easier for Morrison to find the set

At Last a Sensible Suggestion

Finally, we have had a sensible suggestion from a politician, and it wasn’t from Jacinda Ardern either. Aussie Prime Minister Scott Morrison has suggested we stop talking about cases. A focus on case numbers was very important when we knew nothing about this virus and whether our hospital system

Why We Shouldn’t Throw Open the Doors to Afghan Refugees

On the blessing side, there’s Scott Morrison the international statesman, resolutely standing up to China’s bullying. But the curse is his evil twin, the Scotty from Marketing of domestic

Australia Repeats Its Grim History as an Island Prison

Australia Repeats Its Grim History as an Island Prison

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” George Santayana famously wrote. Australians, by and large, are quite ignorant of their history. They have been condemned to repeat it, in the 2020s. After 230 years, Australia has reverted to being an island prison. And, in an echo

Victoria: Where the Young Die in Secret

Victoria: Where the Young Die in Secret
