Ever since ditching the execrable Malcolm Turnbull, the Coalition under Scott Morrison has steadily been turning a paler shade of the deep teal it had become. Although reviled by the left-media as a deep-blue conservative, Morrison is steadily flushing greener as he endlessly panders to the shrill left on issues
Jacinda Ardern is steadily chipping away at the trans-Tasman alliance. Ardern’s incessant fish-wife scolding of her Australian counterparts might play well to her cronies and lickspittles in the NZ media, but she is relentlessly alienating New Zealand’s most important ally – at the same time that she is cosying
As I’ve written elsewhere, the Chinese Virus seems to have eaten away at whatever passed for brains in the Western political class. How else to explain such lunacy as the announcement allowing adults to sit on a park bench with one other, or COVID-infected people being rushed out of
Does the Chinese Virus rot the brain? Surely nothing else can explain the collective outbreak of mass lunacy that’s struck a great deal of the Western world – including the entirety of its media-political elite. They’ve all gone completely insane. Utter, stark-raving, barking mad. Collectively lost their ever-lovin’ minds.
How much longer will Victorians continue to #StandWithDan? In what can only be regarded as a mass-outbreak of Stockholm Syndrome, Victorians responded to being placed under virtual house-arrest, due entirely to the astonishing ineptitude of the Andrews government, by loudly cheering for the corrupt clowns who locked them up – and
If the Greens and the ALP were to be believed, Australia is just one solar panel away from banishing those nasty fossils fuels for ever. Electricity will come free from the sun, there’ll be no more bushfires and we’ll all hold hands and skip into the glorious green
Eliora The incumbent Premier of Victoria, Australia, Daniel Andrews wants a law that will make it hard for religious organisations to maintain their religious identity and culture. A Victoria government plan to crack down on Churches using prayer to change LGBI people has been branded as the biggest threat to
First, it was former union chief and MP Jennie George warning the Labor party to wake up to itself over its “zero emissions” delusions. Now, serving backbencher Joel Fitzgibbon is telling his colleagues to get a grip, ditch the watermelon fantasies, and avoid electoral oblivion. I was, I should admit,
As I reported recently, Victorian premier Daniel Andrews displayed his hitherto-unsuspected talent for stand-up comedy, when he claimed that Victoria had “higher standards” than any other state when it came to pandemic management. Dan is keeping them rolling in the aisles by following up with a classic banana-peel pratfall. Victoria
She’d almost certainly hate the comparison, but Tasmanian senator Jacquie Lambie reminds me a lot of Donald Trump. By that, I mean that she’s a political outsider almost accidentally thrown into the national spotlight and that she’s also what commo pontificator Phillip Adams calls a “maddie”. “Maddies”
When I visited New Zealand in the glorious, pre-COVID days of 2019, I was somewhat sceptical of Aucklanders who warned me about the traffic. Then I spent an hour crawling just a couple of kilometres along the Southwestern Motorway. But, if I thought Auckland traffic was bad, nothing prepared me
As we continue to slide, hell-for-leather, down the rainbow slippery-slope, the far-left lurches from one straw-man to the next. First, it was “homophobia”, actually almost non-existent in a nation where more than 80% of adults say homosexuality should be accepted – one of the highest results in the world. Now it’
Who knew that among Victorian premier Daniel Andrews’s hitherto-hidden talents was a penchant for stand-up comedy? Well, if the nation-wide chorus of guffaws that greeted “Dictator Dan’s” latest podium pontification are anything to go by, Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr might as well hang up their mics and
Once upon a time unionists and Labor politicians actually worked for a living – at least for a while – before plonking their arses on the velvet and sucking on the public teat for life. This at least gave them some sense of what their constituents’ needs and priorities were. Not any
Governments across Australia are facing a crisis at the moment. How do they hang on to dictatorial emergency powers when there’s no actual emergency? Easy: keep the fear whipped up to panic level by any means necessary. There are bugger-all Chinese virus cases in Australia right now, certainly none
It’s said that you can judge a person by their enemies. Jacinta Price has made some very powerful – and very telling – enemies, not least the leech-like Aboriginal industry which sucks away at the $30 billion of taxpayers’ money poured every year into “indigenous spending”. Price is also loathed by
