Media Watch host Paul Barry caused a storm on his own network this week, when he suggested that the ABC was captured by a trans lobby group. Barry pointed out that the ABC ran a slanted agenda on its trans coverage. That included ignoring significant developments, such as the closure

It looks as though we’re living in the 70s again. No, I’m not talking about the fashionable left’s renewed sympathy towards normalising paedophilia, which reached its previously oleaginous apex in the “sexual liberation” 70s — I’m talking about the weather. Namely, that it’s bloody cold and
The Great Reset rolls on. Europe is already at the “forced collectivisation” stage — with New Zealand and Australia not far behind. Almost as if they’re operating to a plan, left-wing governments on both sides of the Tasman are following the exact template laid out in the Netherlands. “Cow taxes”
Sadly, these young activists don’t seem to think their actions through, and their behaviours are counter-productive to their causes. A selection: Young adults from Just Stop Oil glue their hands beneath van Gogh’s “Sunflowers”: theguardian.com and newshub.co.nz. And again, more from the ‘let’s glue
Nothing tells us that “green” is a massive scam so clearly as that it’s attracting so many scammers. Flies are irresistibly attracted to honey, and the biggest honey-pot right now is the massive piles of taxpayer’s “green” cash. A close second is the virtuous gullibility of “green” consumers,
Policy made in a panic rarely makes for good policy. Neither does the union tail wagging the Labor dog yet again. Both are on full display in Anthony Albanese’s panicked rush to be seen to be doing something on energy prices. The panic is understandable, of course. Energy prices
John Maunder The chart below shows that since 1979, when reliable satellite observations became available, there has been an overall small warming trend in the average tropospheric temperatures, apart from, at times, milder temperatures since about 1999, but with three significant warm periods associated with the El Nino events in
The economic wizards of the Labour Party have launched their farms emissions scam, where it is their stated goal to start taxing cow and sheep farts, burps and wees, as well as to reduce herds by 16-20%. Apparently, this will have minimal impact on prices and lead to the world
Remember when Anthony Albanese was promising to lower everyone’s power bills by $275? Oh, how we laughed. We’re not laughing now. Australia faces a new cost-of-living shock, with power prices forecast to soar by at least 35 per cent in 2023 as the early closure of coal-fired
So, we’re at the “forced collectivisation” stage of the Great Reset. Are we happy, yet? If you’re the sort of smart cookie who doesn’t rely on the legacy media for information — more than likely, given that you’re here, reading The BFD — you’ll recall that the
The European political landscape has been shifting for some time, with Brexit leading to a rising tide of discontent with the administrative state that is the EU. After Brexit, bureaucracy in Brussels moved quickly to reassure remaining states that it was an unfortunate aberration; that all was well with the
It used to be that at least in the winter months we could look forward to a break from non-stop climate propaganda. Climate alarmists used to be strictly warm-weather creatures. After all, they look a bit silly, chanting “It’s getting hot in here!” when an unseasonal blizzard has driven
Every day, I breathe a sigh of relief that our kids made it through 12 years of public education and, in one case, a university degree, without being brainwashed into climate’n’gender zealotry. You can say that the fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree, but I wouldn’
UN rep at a WEF event gloating about “owning the science” with big tech platforms helping suppress alternative scientific opinion and debate. I wonder what other science besides climate “science” is being manipulated and bought pic.twitter.com/645aMdgseQ — Rukshan Fernando (@therealrukshan) October 2, 2022 If you would like to
