Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) are an important arm of civil society in liberal democracies. “Service Delivery” NGOs are some of the most recognisable brands in the world. In Australia especially, NGOs like the Country Fire Authority, State Emergency Service and the Country Women’s Association are some of our most venerable
Michael Crichton’s State of Fear revolves around the plot in which climate change zealots attempt to stage mass murder in order to publicise what they believe to be the dangers of global warming. Crichton’s particular plot device might sound far-fetched – but not by much, to anyone familiar with
Australia’s Minister for Indigenous Australians – himself indigenous – has rapped the knuckles of the pampered cry-babies in the NRL who whine about playing the national anthem. Not only are these whingeing ingrates alienating the very people who line their pockets, frankly, they’re crying through their collective arses. Minister for
Leftist darling Tim Flannery is well known for his unfortunate habit of making dud climate predictions, then flatly denying ever having made them.

I’m not a Catholic. I abhor paedophilia. I’m not particularly enamoured of George Pell. Yet, I can’t escape the uneasy feeling that the most egregious miscarriage of justice in Australia since the Chamberlains has been perpetrated in Pell’s case. What’s even more telling is that
“Fake news” is rarely just making things up and telling straight-out lies. In fact, the most insidious forms of fake news are “misleading use of information to frame an issue or an individual”, especially via misleading headlines and biased or slanted reporting. The Guardian has gone full Fake News in
For all the political left’s furious “MeToo” grandstanding, it might reasonably be asked if the only reason they think all men are rapists is because they judge all men by the men of the left. As The BFD readers will be well aware, there seems to be an ongoing
Australia once led the world in education standards. Then we had the Long March through the institutions. Australian education became “progressive” and “inclusive”. The “latest pegagogies” and “21st century learning styles” were embraced by education bureaucrats and teachers’ unions alike. And the results are in. Australian education rankings have steadily
The Greens – where do they find ‘em? In a party rife with old-school Stalinists, anti-Semites, and candidates who openly brag about shop-lifting and drug abuse, you’d think the Greens couldn’t go any lower. Hold my skinny almond latte, says a Sydney Greens candidate. A Greens candidate running for
