The natives really are getting restless in Melbourne. If “Dictator Dan” Andrews thought that sending in the goon squads to kick down doors, pile onto journalists and handcuff pregnant women in their jammies was going to win hearts and minds, it appears that he was sadly mistaken. The videos of
If there’s one thing you can say about the Long March left, they’re persistent. And, like the Maoists their strategy takes its name and inspiration from, dab hands at sneakery and treachery. The Maoists took persistent advantage of the naivete and openness of Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalists

When I wrote yesterday’s Insight article, comparing Victoria under Wuhan pandemic lockdown to past tyrannies like communism, even I worried that I was being overly hyperbolic. Lo and behold, the very next day, a refugee from Poland’s communist regime makes the same comparison. The restrictions in Victoria on
When the Morrison government agreed to conduct a royal commission into the banking sector, Australia’s academics weren’t backwards in coming forward with their pious opinions about the wicked capitalists.
