There’s an old saying that the more a man goes out of his way to assure you of his honesty, the more closely you should watch your pockets. In politics, the more a party blatherskites about “integrity”, the more you know that they’re more crooked than Dan Andrew’
It’s one thing to realise that the loudest climate-botherers are the world’s biggest hypocrites — quite another to see, in stark figures, just how monstrous their hypocrisy really is. Sure, flying fleets of private jets to “climate summits”, and owning vast mansions, is a bad look. But the

John Maunder This week over 40,000 people will attend COP 27, the 27th gathering of the Conference of the Parties dealing with climate change. By contrast, 37 years ago a small group of 100 scientists met in the small town of Villach in Austria to begin talks on climate

Well, the mask’s off, now. They’re not even pretending, any more: “climate change” is just the motte — the bailey is, and always was, a Marxist revolution. Of course, plenty of us have been pointing that out, for years. But it’s one thing for we “right-wing conspiracy
Imagine if you were in a vehicle careering downhill toward a cliff edge and, instead of applying the brakes or bailing out, the driver insisted on pushing harder on the accelerator. All this, after you’ve already watched a few of your mates’ cars plunge over the cliff and smash
Dear Editor, Hi, my name is Benjamin and I am twelve years old. I am writing this letter to say that, unlike my peers, I’m excited about climate change. Why? Well, I’ve always wanted to live on a farm and I also want to visit Antarctica. So I’
Insanity, it is said, is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. In which case, we have to conclude that the Climate Cult is absolutely barking. I mean, as if we didn’t know that already, but it’s one thing to see liberal

If you’ve tried reasoning with a religious cultist or an Amway representative, you know how it goes. They’re completely immune to evidence and persuasion. Every time you show where they’re wrong, they simple switch to the next rote-learned talking-point that’s been debunked a dozen
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
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
