The phrase “loony vegan” may seem to be a tautology, but there are some vegans who are so unhinged that they make the twits padlocking themselves to moving conveyor belts seem sane. They’re certainly doing nothing to improve the public image of vegans as deranged extremists desperately seeking attention.
If Australians want to know what an “Indigenous Voice” to Parliament would look like in practice, they only need to look to Victorian Greens senator Lidia Thorpe. Her nickname, “Snow Woke”, is well-earned. A veteran trougher, appointed by her party to fill a vacancy, rather than elected, Thorpe has spent
Dune author Frank Herbert once said that his most important message was that “Governments make incredibly stupid decisions and lie to protect themselves”. After 18 months of the Chinese virus, no one should doubt that. Australian and New Zealand governments, like so many around the world, panicked and made the
One of the enduring images of the Cold War was the defector. Communism was, after all, such a great system that communist nations had to actively stop their people fleeing. People wishing to travel outside communist countries faced a gruelling process to obtain an exit visa. What does it say
The ABC, Australia’s taxpayer-funded leftist propaganda network, is supposed to be bound specifically by law: the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Act 1983. Instead, the ABC apparently thinks that this entitles it to be a law unto itself. For a supposedly public-owned operation, the ABC is notoriously secretive, whether it’s
The Morrison government is being pressured to kiss Beijing’s arse and beg forgiveness. Quisling state premiers and greedy corporates are practically begging the federal government to shut up and take China’s money. But, to their credit, the Morrison government are holding firm. On the defence front, the informal
As we’ve recently learned, for all their skiting at today’s youngsters, it’s the Boomers who are the most narcissistic generation of snowflakes. Are they also the greediest? Comedian George Carlin (born before the Boomers) certainly thought so: whiny, narcissistic, self-indulgent people with a simple philosophy: “GIMME IT,
How quick we have been to hand over our hard-won freedoms, out of fear. A hysterical global campaign of fear-mongering over what, by historical standards, is a pretty run-of-the-mill pandemic, has exposed the modern West for the snivelling poltroons that we are. The Chinese virus is roughly on a par
As I warned yesterday, China is luring a starry-eyed and greed-blinded Jacinda Ardern into a debt trap that threatens New Zealand’s very sovereignty. Across the world, the CCP regime is using the “Belt and Road Initiative” to bring naïve and greedy governments under its heel. But it’s not
The most constant feature of the Chinese virus pandemic, aside from the lies and power-grubbing hysteria, is the utter hypocrisy of the elite. David Clark breaking lockdown to get in a run on the beach. Prof. Neil Ferguson breaking lockdown to get into someone else’s wife. Bureaucrats shutting down
Free Press ACT Party The Haps ACT’s Honest Conversations tour kicks off in the South Island this week. If you’d like to meet ACT’s MPs, please check out the schedule for when they’ll be near you. The Prime Minister says she could have communicated her Hate
Adrian Esterman University of South Australia Professor Esterman’s first degree was a BSc(hons) in statistics at the University of Bath, UK, followed by an MSc in Medical Statistics from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Prime Minister Scott Morrison has received criticism from the general public
I’m not much of a fan of Rebel Wilson, nor of celebrities using social media as a bully pulpit. But I’m even less of a fan of elite hypocrisy. And I’m absolutely a fan of free speech. The great philosopher of free speech, John Stuart Mill, wrote
Australia’s taxpayer-funded leftist propaganda machine likes to claim that it is uniquely beloved by Australians. But it seems strangely reluctant to put that to the acid test of the market. Ratings show that less than one in ten Australians tunes into the ABC. Yet all Australians are forced to
Another day, another story of staggering COVID incompetence in Victoria. No matter what the “IStandWithDan” fanatics might say, there’re damn good reasons why Victoria is far and away the COVID capital of Australia – and they all lead straight to the government and the state bureaucracy. Hiring quarantine staff over
