Another Woke Troughocracy Eats Itself

Another Woke Troughocracy Eats Itself

Ah, me, there’s no greater spectator sport than watching the left eat itself. If only they did it with their own money. SBS is Australia’s taxpayer-funded “multicultural” broadcaster. Which means that it’s even woke-er than the ABC – and watched by even fewer people. SBS has long been

Vaccine Unsafe For 80% Of Australians

Vaccine Unsafe For 80% Of Australians

Is it any wonder that Australians are so “vaccine hesitant” when it comes to the COVID vaccines? Unlike the British, who have basically been locked in their homes and told they can’t come out until they submit to “the jab”, Australians aren’t exactly rushing to bare their arms

‘Should Be Withdrawn from Classrooms’

‘Should Be Withdrawn from Classrooms’

Hoaxes are very easy to pull off, but very tiresome to debunk. Consider the Orson Welles radio broadcast of War of the Worlds: newspapers ran wild with claims that it sparked mass panic. That is absolutely untrue, yet the hoax is still widely believed. Crop circles immediately grabbed the tiny

The Three Deadly Myths about Aborigines

The Three Deadly Myths about Aborigines

Anthony Dillon is one of those Aboriginal people that the left-media don’t like. You’ll rarely see Dillon on The Project. You won’t see Jacinta Price or Warren Mundine, either. It would be merely churlish to suggest that that’s because Price, Mundine and Dillon are distinctively Aboriginal,

Another Hatchet Job on Morrison Falls Flat

Nikki Savva really doesn’t like Scott Morrison. We know that, because she never misses a chance to remind us. Nikki was a huge fan of Malcolm Turnbull (remember him? Anyone?). Like many female journalists of a Certain Age, Nikki wet her “Depends” when Lord Turnbull of Wentworth ascended to

Health Fascism: It’s for Your Own Good!

Studying 20th century history at university, I often wondered what it must be like to watch everything around you slide into the “Dark Valley” of totalitarianism. I wonder no more. Because I’m living it. Of course, it’s not on the scale of a Chinese in 1949 watching the

The BFD Nightcap

After spending 17 days in jail, with most of that time in solitary confinement, Pastor Paul walked out of the Metropolitan Remand Centre in Ravenhall, Victoria, last night and into the arms of his loving wife.

ABC Luvvies to Go West

ABC Luvvies to Go West

It’s getting hard for satirists to keep ahead of the left. Even the magnificent Titania McGrath, and The Babylon Bee, have barely managed to keep one step ahead of the left’s descent into barking madness. Indeed, their satire has been so frequently mistaken for the real thing that

Even the ABC Is Embarrassed By the ABC

Even the ABC Is Embarrassed By the ABC

Let’s get this straight: the ABC is biased. This is beyond obvious – except to the ABC. Any suggestion that the ABC might be even the teensiest bit biased is met with furious denial from its tiny cohort of dedicated “friends” in the inner suburbs of Sydney and Melbourne. And

Another Green Zealot Tries to Bullshit about EVs and Utes

Another Green Zealot Tries to Bullshit about EVs and Utes

Jacinda Ardern is not the only trying to pull a swifty over electric cars versus utes. Notoriously, Ardern is trying to subsidise luxury EV cars for wealthy people at the expense of tradies and ordinary car-owners. Which is exactly what her dewy-eyed fans across the ditch at Australia’s ABC

It’s Anchor Babies Aweigh! For Australia

It’s Anchor Babies Aweigh! For Australia

So “anchor babies” are now a thing in Australia. For years, Australia has been praised or damned, depending on one’s political leanings, for its “tough” border policies. Certainly, the policies have been sufficient to end — twice — the more than daily arrivals of boats of illegal immigrants. But the truly

‘World’s Greatest Leader’ Snubbed by G7… Again

This year’s G7 summit should be of special interest to New Zealanders, not because of who was there and what was discussed — but who and what wasn’t. The G7 itself includes, of course, Britain, the US, Canada and Japan. This year Australia was invited for the second time

Damned Lies, Statistics and Self-Flagellation

The issue of Islam and domestic violence briefly stirred the cobwebs in the heads of Australia’s chattering classes a few years back. First, a Muslim cleric lectured that it was OK for Muslim men to beat their wives into submission, if they refused sex, for instance. Then a pair

Bob Carr Is in Denial

Bob Carr Is in Denial

Yesterday, The BFD reported that senior Labor senator Penny Wong had condemned the Queensland branch of the party for parroting “talking points disseminated by Hamas”. Now, Labor elder statesman Bob Carr is furiously denying the obvious: anti-Semitism is a spreading stain on the Labor party. Former foreign minister Bob Carr
