Xbolt So China has mounted a cyber attack on our closest ally and brothers in arms, the Australians. Where is the ANZAC spirit? Where are New Zealand cries of “we stand with our best friends and allies”? Is it because there is so much Chinese money invested in our politicians
As comedians from John Cleese to Jerry Seinfeld have pointed out, Political Correctness has killed comedy. It might have been hoped that we larrikin Aussies would have resisted this stultifying censoriousness better than any others, but, I’m afraid to say, the Australian sense of humour has been suffocated, too.
While the Labor opposition in Australia openly crawl to the Chinese Communist Party, the Coalition government’s attitude is somewhat ambivalent. On the one hand, Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Treasurer Josh Frydenberg talk a good game about curtailing Chinese interests buying up Australia’s strategic assets – while the Foreign
Old Mate David Shoebridge is having a hard time keeping out of the news, these days. Whether it’s employing Marxist vandals or getting in Rich People Fights with his neighbours, Shoebridge continues the Greens’ tradition of mouthing off hard-left platitudes while living the most bourgeois lifestyle imaginable. He’s
NSW Labor have long had an unenviable reputation for corruption. With the likes of Eddie Obeid and Sam Dastyari amongst its alumni, “Sussex Street” (the party headquarters) was (and is) virtually a byword for branch-stacking and bribery. “Hold my chardonnay,” says Victoria. Victorian minister Adem Somyurek handed over thousands of
In news that should surprise absolutely no-one, it turns out that some of the Red Guards embarking on a wave of tantrum-throwing vandalism are employed by none other than Australia’s very own Stalinist party. The NSW goverment is considering tougher penalties for people who deface statues after two women
Pauline Hanson really has become the national gadfly. Her outrageous habit of saying out loud in Parliament what ordinary Australians are thinking continually irritates the media-political elite – and continually exposes their cosy groupthink for all to see. Pauline has a particularly gauche habit of tabling motions that challenge the nation’
Thanks a billion, “Black Lives Matter” morons. That’s the estimated cost of your weekend of copy-cat protests by Australian leftist rent-a-crowds jumping on the latest leftist fad imported from America. Black Lives Matter protests are expected to delay the easing of COVID-19 restrictions by at least a week, potentially
It seems to have dawned on even the dim wits of the elite that they overplayed their hand with last weekend’s copy-cat demonstrations. Australians are venting their pent-up fury after being subjected to months of unnecessary, devastating restrictions, and then seeing thousands of bandwagon-jumping rent-a-crowds jamming into cities for
Pauline Hanson is keeping up her inconvenient habit of saying the sort of things that ordinary Australians think without the approval of their masters in the political-media elite. One Nation leader Pauline Hanson says she finds it “frustrating (and) hypocritical of the government” that businesses were shut down due to
In his How the World Was Won, Tasmanian writer Peter Conrad argued that American culture came to dominate the world because people just like it. Notably, this egalitarian triumph peeved the elitists no end. “The whole fucking world is going 100% American,” grumbled Henry Miller. “It’s a disease.” The
They’re not even bothering to hide it any more. “Stay home, save lives” was a con. A power grab by grubby politicians and authoritarian bureaucrats. In case anyone was still gullible enough to doubt it, their blatant political cronyism has been laid bare. Victoria Police closed a popular Mornington
Dieuwe de Boer and Tim Wilms discuss the latest news and developments happening in the Tasman. The prevailing narrative has shifted, but have things changed? COVID-19 has been vapourised and the remaining restrictions have been nullified by the actions of BLM protesters. Social distancing hypocrisy is rife amongst the elites.
It’s a matter of definition that socialists are collectivists – especially when it comes to ideas. Followers to the core, they can’t have an idea unless every single one of their fellows loudly sings a chorus of agreement. Conversely, whatever one lot of them does, the rest are quick
You’ve got to hand it to Australia’s universities: the buggers have got more front than Myers. After years of denigrating Australia, undermining its national security by crawling to the Beijing regime and ruthlessly persecuting any of their students who dared speak out, Australia’s university sector is holding
