Politicians Blame COVID for Their Own Mess
For most of us, Covid has been a disaster. For the elites, it’s the gift that keeps on giving. Especially politicians and bureaucrats. First, the China virus gave them the excuse they’d been waiting for to enact “states of emergency” and seize virtually unlimited, unchallenged power. For faceless
Victoria Police Try to Ban Media from Filming
Victoria Police are so desperate to stop the press from revealing what they’re doing in Melbourne right now that they’re actively trying to impose a media blackout. You know, communist China and North Korea style. First, they tried and failed to ban aerial protest telecasts when three mainstream
The Mysterious Case of the Climate Celebrity Who Didn’t Want to Be There
Are the wheels finally falling off the climate catastrophe scam? While some of us caught on well over a decade ago – it’s hard to believe it’s been 12 years since the “climategate” emails blew the lie wide open – the slower kids are still playing catch-up and the
‘Party of the Worker’ Turns on Workers

Thought Police Come Calling in VicSoc
Many BFD readers will have seen footage taken by ordinary Kiwis when police turn up on their doorsteps “for a little chat” about their social media posts. “Hold my capsicum spray”, say Victoria police. In footage that has to be seen to be believed, citizens in Australia are sharing with
Berejiklian’s (Half-Hearted) Commitment to Freedom
So far, only one political leader in Australia has had the guts, let alone even a lukewarm commitment to liberty, to announce a path to freedom for all – vaccinated or not. As I recently wrote for Insight, at least the pandemic has shown me exactly who are the born bullies,
South Australia’s Big Battery Goes Flat
Anyone remember South Australia’s Great Big Green Battery? The one they paid Elon Musk a cool $90 million to build? Spoiler alert: It doesn’t work. South Australia’s big Tesla battery is being sued for allegedly failing to live up to its promises to help rescue the power

Fake News Smears Freedom Protesters
As I wrote recently, the ongoing protests in Melbourne and around the world are fundamentally about the destruction of public trust. The naked power-grabbing and lies of the media-political elite have destroyed what little faith ordinary people had left. But, rather than show a humility and start telling
Has Scott Morrison Just Lost the Next Election?
For all the sound and fury of activists and their cheerleaders in the mainstream media, climate politics has never been an election-winner in Australia. Sure, Kevin Rudd banged on about “the great moral challenge of our time”, but that wasn’t why people voted for him. When push came
