Nothing to See Here: Police Say So

Nothing to See Here: Police Say So

Is it any wonder that people don’t trust the authorities, much less the legacy media, any more? The legacy media’s reputation slides further down the s-bend every day. Almost nobody trusts the government. Even the thin blue line is slipping in the public eye. Maybe they should

The Deep State in Australia: Part 2

The Deep State in Australia: Part 2

“O’Sullivan’s First Law” states that “any institution that is not explicitly right wing will become left wing over time”. The truth of this adage is repeatedly demonstrated in everything from state bureaucracies to NGOs to service clubs. One consequence of O’Sullivan’s First Law is that the

Morrison Delivers on Emissions While Others Just Talk

Morrison Delivers on Emissions While Others Just Talk

There are, of course, lots of differences between conservatives and progressives (I hesitate to say “liberals”, because most are, in fact, thoroughgoing authoritarians), otherwise, they wouldn’t be in opposition to one another. But one of the big differences, some argue, is that progressives are more focussed on emotions than

Australia’s Deep State Flexes Its Muscles Pt. 1

When conservatives in the US first began to talk about the “Deep State”, they were dismissed as conspiracy theorists and cranks. Except that they were right. The past five years and more have seen a slew of revelations which prove that an unelected and deeply embedded bureaucracy is working steadily

Euthanasia: Concern Grows in the Suicide State

Euthanasia: Concern Grows in the Suicide State

As I wrote some time ago, there is a deep moral cognitive dissonance at the heart of the “right-to-die” movement. In our society, suicide is regarded with such horror that its very name cannot be mentioned by the media. Suicide is seen as an overwhelming moral harm. On

Not as Easy as It Looks, Is It, Celeste?

When Celeste Barber was making mocking pastiches of celebrity Instagram photos, it was funny and fresh. The problem, though, is that it made Barber a minor celebrity in her own right, and, like all celebrities, she has proceeded to use her fleeting moment in the C-grade sun as a

Victoria: the Death State

Victoria: the Death State

“Progressives” just love claiming “expert opinion” for their political conceits – except when actual experts disagree with them. Despite the opposition of doctors’ groups like the AMA and the World Medical Association, the “progressive” Andrews government steamrolled ahead with its legalised suicide euthanasia legislation. Any worries that crossing the Rubicon of

Judge: Australian Jihadis Too Dangerous to Release

Gary David is more-or-less forgotten, these days, but there was a time when he dominated news and politics as Public Enemy Number One. David was institutionalised, in orphanages, boys’ homes and ultimately prison, for 33 of his 38 years. From a life of petty crime, David graduated to

Some Rotten Green Apples in Tasmania

Some Rotten Green Apples in Tasmania

If you were to believe the green movement’s propaganda, they are the only squeaky-clean troupe of ideologically pure, selfless servants of the people in the entire Australian polity. Graft, corruption, secrecy, dirty politics…there’s none of that kind of goblin mischief going on, down in Fairy Dell.

Australian Government Hits Back at High Court Judicial Activism

Australian Government Hits Back at High Court Judicial Activism

As already reported on The BFD, a slim majority of activist judges on Australia’s High Court have handed down a shocking decision that threatens to impose a new regime of magic-inspired “progressive” racism in Australian law. By virtue of just four judges, Australia is now in the situation

Activist High Court Judges Impose Magical Legal RACISM on Australia

A “shameful”, “paternalistic”, “absurd” and “radical” decision by Australia’s High Court has exposed, for all to see, the danger of the current push for “constitutional recognition” of Aborigines, and of unelected judges taking it upon themselves to usurp the power of parliament and the people who elect it. Especially
