Contrary to what the Greens would have us believe, some new research has painted a different story about the plastic in the oceans. It is not from us landlubbers but from those who should be more interested in looking after the environment that they work in. It seems that merchant
It seems that anti-farmer activism doesn’t begin at home for animal activist Chris Delforce. Delforce is the activist behind the insidious “Aussie Farms” map, which lists the location and contact details of every farm in Australia. The map, along with Delforce’s nutty “documentary”, Dominion, have been the driving
Education has been one of the most extraordinary victories for the Marxists’ Long March through the institutions. Universities have become a wasteland of leftist groupthink, where the only differences of opinion allowed are between left, far-left and communist. Those academics have in turn inculcated generations of teachers in a dismal
We are drowning in people who talk a lot and do very little, so it’s refreshing to find someone who doesn’t say much but actually does something useful. Boyan Slat is passionate about tackling pollution but he’s no social justice warrior because Boyan does stuff more than
“Politics,” said Groucho Marx. “Is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.” Never was that truer than in the ridiculous green campaign against plastics. While plastic pollution in the world’s oceans is undeniably a problem, the greens are comprehensively
As we endure the bratty antics of scowling ignoramus Greta Thunberg and her idiot parade of “climate-striking” infants, it’s easy to be fooled into thinking that the younger generation is going to hell in a handcart. That’s nothing new: oldies have been grumbling about the “youth of today”
As I reported recently, nuclear energy is emerging as yet another issue on which the Labor party is moving further and further from its blue-collar base. One of Australia’s biggest unions, the Australian Worker’s Union is advocating that Australia drop its sanctions and adopt nuclear power. A new
The watermelon cultists of the Church of Gaia delude themselves that the wind turbines and solar panels they fetishise are going to save the planet from the evil sky-dragon, climate change. This is rubbish, of course. Wind and solar, despite decades of taxpayer-funded indulgence, still account for a bare 1%
Meet the Plonkers. Plonker-in-Chief is an Austrian-born socialist control-freak with a mental disorder. I’m not sure the world is ready for another one of those. Nevertheless, she is here, ready to cripple the capital’s transport movements on Monday, extolling her charges to face arrest if necessary, to further
Jeremy has never been renowned for his love of cyclists and in our recent chat with him, he had plenty to say about them. Ferociously expensive cycle lanes, sweaty armpits and even their impact on the environment – it’s fair to say he didn’t hold back. If you have
The behaviour of virtue-signallers is always marked by hypocrisy and ignorance. Hollywood eco-crites jet from mega-mansion to climate summit in their fleets of private planes. A British study found that the most ostentatiously “green” lifestylers tend to have the biggest ecological footprints, mostly on account of their addiction to overseas
The manufactured delirium of the “school’s climate strike” is not just nonsense, it’s wicked nonsense. Nonsense, because not a jot of its hysteria is founded in scientific fact; wicked, not just because it is being exploited by dangerous political ideologies, but because it is diverting desperately needed money
As Labor leader Anthony Albanese’s struggle to oust union strongman John Setka from the party stumbles along, another rift is opening in the Labor movement. Labor is still unable to make up its mind whether it wants to return to its blue-collar roots, or just keep on its disastrous
