As Victoria edges ever closer to the abyss of a new round of COVID infections, the Victorian authorities are once again struggling to differentiate their arses from their elbows. As reported earlier by The BFD, just a handful of new cases saw the government’s contact tracing regime fall to
Last year, New Zealand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade took the extraordinary step of briefing the Minister of Foreign Affairs about hate and incitement to violence being taught in United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) schools partly funded by New Zealand. MFAT waved away
“I knew you would sell your mother for an Etruscan vase. But I didn’t know you would sell out your country and your soul… to the slime of humanity” Prof. Henry Jones (Sean Connery), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. There’s been plenty of back-and-forth over the merits
As The BFD reported recently, the Victorian government is teetering on the edge of making exactly the same mistakes which resulted in the Wuhan plague outbreak last year. The outbreak which resulted in the government imposing the first military curfew in Melbourne’s history, and plainclothes goons handcuffing a pregnant
The road to Hell, as the saying goes, is paved with good intentions. And it’s paid for and laid out and maintained by ‘kind’ and ‘well-meaning’ busybodies who think it’s their state-given right to pry and interfere and impose their own, bigoted version of morality on everyone else.
It’s not hard to notice that the “progressive” left has a rather problematic relationship with religion. Not to put to fine a point on it, they hate religion. It’s all “sky fairy” myths and child abuse and holding humanity back from reaching the great, communist, Star Trek sci-fi
As I recently wrote, Australia has, like it or not, become the pivotal power in facing down China. China’s diplomatic and trade bullying of Australia, and the Morrison government’s firm resolve not to cave, has made us the focus of global efforts to check the increasing efforts of
There’s not too many silver linings to be found in a global pandemic, even one as ridiculously over-hyped by doom-mongering “experts” as the Wuhan flu. But, just as even the Black Death had the surviving side-effect of providing a boost to the rights and wages of low-status workers, the
If you don’t pay any attention to the news, you’re uninformed. If you only pay attention to the mainstream media, you’re misinformed. And if you’re letting Big Tech decide for you what news you can and can’t see…you’re willfully misinformed. So forgive me
I’ve already written at some length about how the Australian state of Victoria descended into a medically-induced tyranny. Using the ridiculously-over-hyped excuse of what, on all available evidence, is very, very far from the deadliest pandemic in modern history, Victorians meekly, even gratefully, submitted to an elected dictatorship never
Many years ago, there was a fellow in Australia widely dubbed “the serial pest”. Peter Hore grabbed headlines with a series of stunts that had no clear agenda aside from grabbing headlines. Hore’s successful headline grabs included everything from running onto the field of the Melbourne Cup to gatecrashing
Australian prime minister Scott Morrison too often lives up to this “Scotty from Marketing” nickname by treating issues as if they were just another PR campaign. Occasionally, though, he finds his mettle, such as in standing up to China’s bullying and lies. Defending Australia’s national day from the
For years, Australians have watched in helpless fury as more and more of the Aussie “farm” was sold off to China-based entities. From wineries to Australia’s oldest company, from strategic ports to entire islands, China has been gobbling up more of Australia’s land and critical infrastructure, while successive
Australia has blocked a Chinese military-linked company from taking over a major construction company – and China is not happy. Like any bully who gets a long-deserved punch in the nose, Beijing is lashing out. China has accused Australia of “weaponising the concept of national security’’ after a $300 million bid
Can we keep Michael McCormack as Acting Prime Minister? In just two days, Big Mac has done more to take the fight up to the left than Scott Morrison has done in nearly three years. First, McCormack got the left’s knickers in a twist by attacking Twitter’s ban
The plan to steamroll an Aboriginal ethnostate in Australia proceeds apace. Of course, its enthusiasts won’t call it that. They prefer to call it a “Voice” – whatever that means. Don’t bother asking what it means, because they won’t tell us. As an American politician famously put it,
