As I’ve written before for The BFD, Victoria is Australia’s wokest state, and, one way after another, they’re paying the price for their “progressive” virtue-signalling. From rampant African gang crime to failing energy infrastructure, Victorians are reaping the rewards of electing socialist Daniel Andrews. Twice. What’
Did New Zealand also have a “cultural cringe”? For BFD readers perhaps unfamiliar with the term, the “cultural cringe” was the wide-spread belief (at least among the elites) that Australian culture was inherently inferior, to British culture especially. Literature, music, painting – it was all supposedly better if it came
Viv Forbes saltbushclub.com Green Folly closed forest tracks and gates, expelled foresters and timber-workers and prevented property owners from removing flammable fuel from their own land and adjacent roads, parks and forests. Those responsible for these follies should face Class Action. Green Folly promotes electric vehicles but not
Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and
As Australia suffers through its bushfire crisis, some have dug up some alarming Islamist propaganda from a few years ago. U.S. officials monitoring terrorist web sites have discovered a call for using forest fires as weapons against “crusader” nations, in what may explain some recent wildfires in places like
If bullshit were rain, then Australia’s bushfires would be doused in an instant by the tidal wave of effluent pouring out of legacy media and social media alike. Much of the most egregious verbal sewage is spewing from the mouthpieces of the green-left, but the right aren’t
Truth might be the first casualty of war, but it doesn’t do so well in natural disasters either. The legacy media and the green-left are repeating endless lies, such as that “funding for fire-fighting has been slashed!”, despite the fact that even the Rural Fire Service Commissioner
When a Tasmanian conservative politician dares criticise the darling of the local media-elite, the resultant indignant screeching on social media is as predictable as it is moronic. How dare a wicked conservative disagree with a green-left idol? The only problem for the social media peanut gallery is that
Rosemary Williamson University of New England Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been harshly criticised for being on holiday in Hawaii as the catastrophic bushfires were burning Australia. Since his return, he has visited stricken communities – most recently, on Kangaroo Island yesterday. He has acknowledged the emotional toll on victims and
Tim Flannery’s climate muppet show of retired, city-based fire chiefs might be dutifully chirping along from the alarmist hymn sheet, but the people actually fighting the fires see it differently. The environmental lobby is desperately denying that “green tape” led directly to the catastrophic build-up of vegetation
As already reported in The BFD, the political jackals of the green-left are pouncing on Australia’s bushfire crisis before the ashes are even cool. First, there was Tim Flannery’s climate muppet show, the “Emergency Leaders for Climate Action”. There being no show without Punch, GetUp have quickly
It’s bad enough that, as Australia’s bushfire crisis rolls on, we have to put up with green vultures swooping to exploit the tragedy for both political and monetary gain. But, the most truly disgusting human jackals are arsonists and looters. Police arrested 183 people for lighting bushfires across
It’s true that disasters bring out the best in some people – and they also bring out the worst. Where’s there’s a disaster, there are always looters and other opportunistic scum. Then there are the green vultures who swoop on the first whiff of smoke. Bullying left-wing
Isn’t it odd that every proposed “solution” to climate change requires either massive overreach by governments, or mountains of taxpayer’s cash, or most often both? The biggest, most expensive climate boondoggle foisted on long-suffering taxpayers is without a doubt “renewable” energy. Renewables, their advocates insist, are just
