Covid-19
Not Quite the Grim Reaper We Were Told to Expect
The Delta strain — it’s new! It’s highly infectious! It’s deadlier than ever! Except, only two of those statements are remotely true. That’s not to say, of course, that Delta, any more than earlier strains of the Wuhan bug isn’t infectious or deadly. Of course, it

Well Done David Seymour
Sir Bob Jones nopunchespulled.com What a brilliant response ACT leader David Seymour wrote in the Herald to the abominable contrived media beat-up over his vaccination publication. I didn’t think I’d live to see such truth-telling in this ludicrous age of Maori wonderfulness propaganda. It’s
Do as I Say, Not as I Do, Because I Know More Than You

9/11 and the Age of Panic
It’s sobering to realise that my own children, now in their 20s, have lived with the “War on Terror” as the background to their entire lives. They can barely remember 9/11, of course; they were toddlers, playing, oblivious to the telly on which those shocking images transfixed the
