Local Council Votes to Hold Drug Users’ Hands
It seems that there’s no nanny-state soapbox too pointless that local councils can’t work themselves up into a virtue-signalling lather about it. Once upon a time, ratepayers laboured under the impression that the role of local councils was to see to it that the rubbish was collected, local
Demented, Deluded & Deranged
By John Not a day goes by without the publication of an illogical rant by some unhinged politician of the Left. These poor deluded creatures, deceived by their own beliefs, are only succeeding in making themselves the laughing stock of normal thinking people. Unfortunately, much of what they have to
Playing Gender Politics While Men Die
You can’t help but notice that feminists’ obsession with “gender imbalances” seems more than a tad mercenary. The same gender warriors who faint and clutch their pearls if there are 50.1 percent males in some lucrative boardroom, are strangely silent about the fact that teaching and nursing are
The Confiscation Blow-back Debacle
Advocates for liberty are watching New Zealand as we speak, quietly admiring the individual resistance (quite obviously on display) from members of the firearms owning community in, so far, failing to participate willingly in the confiscation of their devices. Let me say, from the outset, I have no skin in
Prisons: Punishment, Rehabilitation or Training Grounds for Extremists?
As another round of terror raids in Sydney unfolded recently, a depressingly familiar refrain emerged: “Radicalised in prison”.

Trotter Could Take a History Lesson from Australia
At The Daily Blog, Chris Trotter has dared say the un-sayable and point out that there’s a rather large, grey pachyderm in the corner of the room that everyone seems determined not to notice. The elephant is, of course, immigration, and the sheer scale and speed of the demographic
A Little Bit Racist?
I watched the first part of TVNZ’s series ‘That’s a Bit Racist’, and it was the most biased, one-sided and in itself racist programme that I had ever seen. It was brought about, of course, by the dreadful Christchurch massacre, but that was the first mistake. The mosque
