Winston Focuses on Survival
Winston is the longest survivor in the gladiatorial palace we call parliament, but the last week has shown that he is not invincible. Although clearly not done for yet, questions are now being asked about how much longer he is likely to survive, and also what will happen to NZ
Dr Willie Soon Demolishes the Extreme Weather Panic & Other Hysterical Arguments
How much longer can these mental midgets at the IPCC and the “Greenies”, carry on with their total nonsense with so much growing scientific evidence that refutes what they are saying. If you have a great Youtube or Vimeo video to share send it to videos@thebfd.co.nz
Eco-anxiety: We’re All Gonna Die
Well, we are all going to die; only that and taxes are certain on this planet. However, the current tsunami of climate gloom, led by St Greta of Thunberg, the Extinction Rebellion crowd and school strikes for climate are having an actual and real harmful effect on children. When you
‘Climate Emergency’ Fail of the Day – 2
As the media have collaborated to bombard the populace with environmental and climate doom propaganda, it is only fair and reasonable to hold their feet to the fire (as it were) and examine past media promoted predictions that have failed to materialise. From the New York Times, August 10 1969
Sunday Nightcap
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and other Democrat leaders nationwide announce that students can skip classes Friday (9/20/201) to join the global climate strike aimed at protesting man-made climate breakdown. Is this just a craven political move, at the expense of taxpayers and of student learning,
Now We’re a Threat to Our Children
Tim Flannery is a Professorial Fellow at the Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute, University of Melbourne, and a climate change true believer.

Friday Nightcap
The Institute of Public Affairs launch of Ian Plimer’s new book from Connor Court Publishing, ‘Not For Greens’, in Melbourne on Tuesday 22 July 2014.
They’re Not Even Pretending It’s Not a Scam Now
Next week’s climate beano at the UN is shaping up to be a bit of a fizzer. Rare as it is for the hangers-on and blood-suckers of Big Climate to turn down some free wine and cheese and business class flights, as we’ve already reported on
Victoria Dammed to Socialist Oblivion
Victorian premier, socialist left faction leader Daniel Andrews, seems determined to turn that state into Australia’s very own little Venezuela. Whether it’s promulgating the creepy Marxist nonsense of “Safe Schools” (the template for New Zealand’s “Mates and Dates”), greedily trousering billions from the Chinese communist regime, or
Disposal Problem Number Two
The BFD has canvased the EV battery disposal problem here: https://thebfd.co.nz/2019/09/troy-runs-the-jag-off-the-road/ Dr Woods wants us to build 4.5 windfarms per year. Very fortunately, this is another CoL target that is being comprehensively missed as no one wants
The Unintended Climate Consequences of Green Dogma
