What’s been particularly noticeable about the progress of the Chinese virus pandemic in Australia is that the worst clusters of outbreaks are directly associated with the incompetence of those at the top. The North-West Regional Hospital in Tasmania and the nursing home in Western Sydney. The Ruby Princess
Australia’s universities certainly have more front than Myers, as the old saying goes. Not only have they allowed themselves to become blatant enablers of Chinese Communist Party influence in Australia; as the Chinese virus pandemic first began to come to light, they blatantly undermined Australia’s early border control
As I’ve said many times, there are a few hard and fast rules for dealing with the mainstream media. First, never believe a headline. Second, when an article claims, “science says…” or “new study shows…”, automatically assume that it doesn’t. Third and most important of all, always, always,
The Babylon Bee recently published a satirical article, claiming that the Chinese Communist Party had disbanded its propaganda team, “as American media doing their job for them”. In a case of life-imitating-satire, an Australian university is doing Beijing’s dirty work for them: harassing and persecuting a student
Nothing shows the complete disconnect of the media-political class from the reality of everyday Australia than immigration. The elite just love immigration. Mass immigration, especially. Like a sugar-junkie gorging on an endless river of chocolate, they can’t get enough of it. The merest suggestion that they ought
Scott Morrison is at least showing that he is the bigger person in the trans-Tasman relationship, by throwing Jacinda Ardern a bone she has done little to merit. At every turn in their relationship, Ardern has sniped, cry-bullied and hectored Morrison and Australia. Realistically, Australia is naturally going
Mining billionaire Andrew Forrest might be keen as mustard on getting back to business as usual with China and getting those billions in iron ore contracts flowing back into his pockets, but ordinary Australians aren’t quite so keen. Public disquiet has been quietly growing for years, as premium Australian
Perhaps mining magnate Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest has got used to the idea that he can boss around Australian governments, after his 2010 campaign against the Minerals Resource Rent Tax contributed directly to the downfall of then-PM Kevin Rudd. Perhaps he is just eager to bootlick the Communists who pour
Poor lefties. They were cheated out of indulging in their annual orgy of bashing all things male and white when ANZAC Day services were cancelled this year. Even worse, ordinary Australians and New Zealanders still got to show their patriotism and respect, as millions of candles flickered at dawn from
Dieuwe de Boer and Tim Wilms discuss the latest news and developments happening in the Tasman. This week the show will focus on the latest developments as New Zealand and Australia slowly begin their move away from COVID-1984 restrictions.
Clive Hamilton has written that the Silent Invasion of Australia is being enabled by the foolish, mendacious and greedy at all levels, but most especially in politics, academia and business. “Apologists for China in Australia know that the Chinese state is repressive…but they manage to set it all aside,
One Nation NSW leader Mark Latham has taken to Facebook to ask, “Who says Indigenous life expectancy has fallen?” Latham is referring to an ABC story which, if taken seriously, would suggest that some Aboriginal Australians live for a century or more. The story was, of course, about the upcoming
Dave Pellowe davepellowe.com Jane Caro – novelist & social commentator – typed a piece yesterday titled “Our Leaders Agree With Science When Science Agrees With Them“. In it, she gives credit to the conservatives (among other national and state leaders) who have heeded the doomsday predictions of discredited pandemic models and
China is clearly feeling the heat on all fronts as it steps up its propaganda war in the wake of the Chinese virus pandemic. Many have wondered if the Chinese virus pandemic will be China’s “Chernobyl” moment: a disaster so monstrous and so damaging to the rest of the
As a billion Chinese already know, China’s totalitarian panopticon state misses nothing. As millions of Chinese dissidents also know, the communists resolutely seek out and punish anything and everything the Party disapproves of. Countless Chinese students have learned the hard way that the Party’s tentacles reach all the
China is behaving with imperial arrogance as governments around the world echo the fury of ordinary citizens at Beijing for its lies and cover-ups which (perhaps intentionally) unleashed the Wuhan pandemic on the world. Having grown used to bullying and punishing its own people the instant they step out
