If you think it’s a clever idea to send out a malware bot as a major recruitment campaign and still barely manage to suck in more than a couple of thousand confused Boomers, you just might be a “youth climate activist”. The “clever” online campaign was the brainchild of
As the weather warms up, it’s time for Australians and New Zealanders to gird themselves for the annual emergence of the Climate Cult from their long, winter semi-hibernation. By all accounts, this one is going to be a doozy. After a disappointing (for the Cultists) run of mediocre, wet
With voting day in the Indigenous Voice” referendum drawing closer, and polls showing support falling even lower, the question naturally becomes: then what? Politics will, after all, continue, regardless of the referendum outcome. For Anthony Albanese, a referendum loss will be a deadly blow to his leadership. Not immediately fatal,

Britain has long been a case study in the madness of “Net Zero”. The UK faces the prospect of widespread power outages for the first time since power was rationed in the early ’70s. Even barring full blackouts, tens of thousands of British households have to choose, every winter, between
Even if Australian PM Anthony Albanese survives the “Indigenous Voice” referendum, there’s an avalanche of political pain bearing down on him, courtesy of his government’s “Net Zero” obsession. Pollsters have noted that, as the Voice vote sinks lower and lower by the week, Australians are growing increasingly frustrated
The rural revolt against Labor’s “Net Zero” plans is a gathering storm that threatens to swamp the government in country seats. It’s hardly surprising that country people are arking up against this insanity, of course: after all, it’s country people who face the prospect of seeing their
Another day, another hilarious story of another EV failure. I really have to thank Elon Musk and the Climate Cult: if it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t have an endless supply of these stories to mock. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Whether the cheap laughs
I’m not saying Australia’s Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, is dumb, but if you want to keep him occupied, show him two shovels and tell him to take his pick. This is, after all, the guy who repeatedly asserts that wind and solar are the
Anyone who prattles about a “climate emergency”, or that climate change is an existential threat to life on Earth, almost certainly hasn’t read the scientific literature. Instead, they’re relying solely on the mainstream media, who are parroting press releases, written by activists, for politicians. Anyone who thinks that
Hmmm, let’s see: child slave labour and toxic pollution, adding to the massive strain on already-stressed power grids, massive weight threatening the integrity of car parks, the same weight causing them to rip through tyres and make even more pollution, the toxic nightmare of disposing of batteries, guzzling taxpayer’
As I wrote recently, Australia’s Nationals, unlike New Zealand’s National, are finally recovering some testicularity in the face of the Climate Cult. The Nationals, the old Country Party, are facing a grass-roots backlash from their constituents, over “Net Zero” policies in general, and “renewables” in particular. Because, unlike
Despite the similarities in their names, the Nationals in Australia should not be confused with New Zealand’s National party. There are similarities, of course – the Nationals are in coalition, after all, with the real trans-Tasman cousin to National, the Liberal Party – but key differences. The Nationals are what used

Something happens to the very rich, to their detriment: they lose the presence of people to tell them, “No”. When, as invariably happens, the wealthy and powerful surround themselves with sycophants, there’s no one around them willing to tell them, “That’s a stupid idea. You’re making an
