How Soon Before We Pay for the Luxury of Cash?

I recently leased a PO box for business purposes. It turns out to have been an unintentionally prescient move: Australia Post has mooted plans to cut residential delivery from daily to every two days. We’ve come a long way from the ‘primitive’ 19th century, when mail was delivered twice

Zey Have Veys of Making You Electrify

Remember when it was a crazy conspiracy theory that they were going to take your gas cooking and heating away? Oh, yes, you can guess where this is heading. California is already banning gas appliances. Australia’s wokest state, Victoria, is banning them in new constructions. Now, they’re coming

Biden Boldly Goes Where Albo Only Grovels

Biden Boldly Goes Where Albo Only Grovels

It’s a fine state of affairs when even the doddering, demented Biden administration is far tougher on the Chinese communist regime than the Anthony Albanese government in Australia. It almost makes one yearn for halcyon days of the Scott Morrison government. Say what you will about Scotty from Marketing:

It Was Basically a Con Game

It Was Basically a Con Game

I am sure there are many people on the BFD and elsewhere who don’t truly believe me when I tell them that the left wing – the Labour party – has basically been a con game. Many probably, having spent their lives ‘swallowing it whole’ (and proving my point), secretly think

Why Would You Trust Them Again?

Why Would You Trust Them Again?

Yet again, the real Long Covid strikes: the snowballing public health disasters as a consequence of panicked, despotic Covid policies. We’re already seeing the devastating affects of worse-than-useless Covid policies on children, a generation plagued by developmental delays and declining mental health. Preventable diseases in adults are spiking due

Focused On ‘Grayndler, Not Gaza’

The fallout from the Albanese government’s craven betrayal of Israel continues. It was bad enough that Albanese joined with Luxon and Trudeau in issuing a mealy-mouthed, gutless joint statement which is effectively a green light to Hamas. (Although even that was too harsh for the snaggle-toothed madwoman screeching and

Still Think It Was About the Science?

Does anyone still really believe Covid policies were ‘all about the science’? If so, please get in touch: I’ve got shares in the Sydney Harbour Bridge I need to sell, cheap. From the earliest months of the pandemic, it was increasingly obvious that Covid policy was being driven not

Tax and Squeeze: Labor All the Way

Tax and Squeeze: Labor All the Way

Taxes up, working and middle-class Australians being squeezed of every penny, the beneficiary class ballooning… Tell me this isn’t a modern Labor government. Just don’t try and tell me that Labor is “the party of the worker”. It hasn’t been true in decades. Labor is now unapologetically

A Craven Betrayal of a Brave Ally

A Craven Betrayal of a Brave Ally

Can you imagine, while the Battle of Britain was raging, the USA urging Britain to dump Winston Churchill and negotiate an immediate ceasefire with Hitler? Negotiations which include conceding territory to the Third Reich? Because, after all, innocent civilians were suffering from the bombing. Neville Chamberlain is rightly condemned by

Husic Nudges and Winks at Western Sydney

Jeez, it’s getting so an anti-Semite can’t bellow, “Gas the Jews!” any more without being judged, or something. In fact, it’s so bad, that a politician desperate to pander shamelessly for Muslim votes has to stump for anti-Semites’ rights. Labor frontbencher Ed Husic has defended the ability

Big NZ Dwarfs Big Oz

As I recently reported, the Albanese government is trying to convince Australians that a paltry 10 per cent reduction of record-high immigration levels is some kind of big deal. Australians aren’t falling for it. Would that New Zealanders could wring even that much concession from their elites. Immigration has

Plucka Ducks Out While the Ducking’s Good

That’s it. With the resignation of Annastacia Palaszczuk, that’s the last of the Branch Covidian dictators gone from Australia. Every single state premier who presided over the dictatorial regimes of lockdowns, and forced vaccines and masks, is out of politics. Although, scandalously, each of them was allowed to

… And a Diet Cola

It’s Claytons all round, today. A Claytons apology, and a Claytons immigration cut. Does the term “Claytons” have the same meaning in New Zealand as it does in Australia? Like “Tui, yeah, right”, it comes from an advertising slogan (from the 70s, for a non-alcoholic drink packaged to look

2.3 Million Reasons to Ask Questions

According to her testimony, Brittany Higgins now employs a legal babysitter, “so I can’t do anything dumb”. Whoever the poor soul is, they’ve got their work cut out for them. On her last day of cross examination, Higgins publicly confirmed what had so far been confidential: that she

Battle of the Box Tickers

The Bruce Lehrmann defamation action against Channel 10 and Lisa Wilkinson will wrap up, soon, but there’s still plenty of legal entertainment to come. There’s Alex Greenwich v Mark Latham action, for instance. In that case, an openly homosexual MP is suing the famously pugilistic Latham for, essentially,
