While China’s tweeting of a fake image of an Australian soldier killing a child is grabbing headlines – for all the wrong reasons – around the world, it scarcely exceeds the bastardy being meted out to Australia’s soldiers by military brass at home. The Brereton Report, which found evidence of
China is now showing its true face to the world: a brutal bully, too gutless to pick a fight with the biggest kid in the playground, so it tries to shove around someone smaller. For decades, the communist state has tried to soft-soap a gullible world that it’s a
The Morrison government is facing multiple challenges, both domestic and foreign. Some are “events”, as Harold MacMillan might put it, such as responding to the Wuhan plague and mostly state government actions like lockdowns. But many others are direct attacks from left-wing enemies. But while the Chinese communist regime tries
When is the Morrison government going to learn the lesson that repeatedly has beaten it over the head? Turning teal is not a vote-winner. Coalition voters want a party that offers a clear alternative to the Labor-Green watermelon monster. Nothing should have hammered home that lesson more brutally than the
As China escalates its war of trade and words against Australia, the Morrison government has won the unequivocal support of its key ally, the United States. For now, anyway. Another key ally, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is taking a rare risk of angering the communist giant by raising
Beijing is clearly feeling under pressure, as it ramps up its trade and diplomatic attacks on Australia to near-hysterical levels. China has apparently singled out Australia as its post-COVID whipping-boy, not least for Australian PM Scott Morrison’s determination to force an international investigation to get behind China’s non-stop
One of the most remarkable turnarounds in modern history is that of bitterest enemies becoming fast allies within less than a century. The depth of the enmity between Australia and Japan in WWII cannot be overstated. The treatment of Allied POWs in Japanese camps is legendary for its brutality. For
The Wuhan plague is, if nothing else, shaking the fault lines in Western society. It’s being exploited by the unscrupulous and power-hungry at all levels, whether state health bureaucrats on a Little Hitler trip or the globalist elite-of-the-elite. More notably, it’s showing us peasants without doubt just who
Finally, one Australian government at least has learned something from its COVID stuff-ups. While Dan Andrews in Victoria continues to lie like a Beijing Party official about the disastrous hotel quarantine scheme, the South Australian government has quickly moved to overhaul the obvious idiocy of the policy. Burned badly by
If there’s one thing that’s characterised the Wuhan plague, it’s the astonishing incompetence of so many governments and bureaucracies. Despite their conceit that it’s their place to run our lives to the level of ruling just how many people we’re allowed to have at weddings
Back when I still punching the clock every day, I was a member of my relevant union. Not because of ideology, but from simple, practical consideration. Union membership brought a raft of benefits, from discount movie tickets to free legal representation. These were the basic worker benefits that unions were
Here’s a great comparison of capitalism vs communism: The Australian government offers incentives of $2000 for Kiwis and $6000 for Australians to pick fruit and vegetables in Australia. In response, Jacinda Ardern threatens that people should not take up Australia’s offer, because she will severely punish them on
When governments and bureaucrats gleefully seized the opportunity for a naked power-grab enabled by the Wuhan virus, critics argued that not only do such authoritarian responses as lockdowns not work, but that the concomitant toll in other diseases and suicides would be even worse. The evidence still shows the inefficacy
I’m not a huge fan of Tasmanian Liberal senator Eric Abetz, but he is one of the few Australian politicians to clearly see and publicly speak out against the the Chinese communist regime. Having myself several times called Xi Xinping’s regime the 21st century’s Nazi Germany, it’
According to the media and her own breathless propaganda, Jacinda Ardern “eliminated” the Wuhan plague in New Zealand. If that’s the case, though, why is New Zealand exporting the virus to Australia? There are fears COVID-19 could have been brought into the country from New Zealand after a locally
