Caught like a Possum in the Headlights

This past weekend has seen an unusual sight, a haggard and worn looking Prime Minister no longer in command of the narrative with nothing to hang her hat on for demonstrable achievements, lying to various media about how grand her vaccine rollout has been. In her keynote speech to the

A Request from the Moderation Team

HR Hi everyone. The BFD is humming even more than usual with 1.7 million or so people being in lockdown until recently and highly likely to be locked down again. The hot topics are, of course, covid, the government and the media. Emotions are high and commenters obviously want

Why We Need Your Support

The landscape for conservative media is getting darker and darker. The BFD is faced with competitors that are hock deep in Government funded troughs and social media giants that stifle freedom of expression. Last month The BFD copped a second 30-day ban on Facebook. Our first one was for posting

British Medical Journal Investigation into Pfizer

Information Opinion A week ago, The BFD published a review of the Pfizer vaccine trials in which I analysed the actual data released by the company.

Comparing Apples with Apples: The Spinoff and The BFD

The Spinoff has the same size audience as The BFD but the similarities end there. The BFD is funded 95% by our one thousand plus members and 5% by our advertising revenue. The BFD serves a broad church of political views that includes libertarian, centre-right, and conservative readers of whom

Red Queen Has Lost Her Crown

The Red Queen can barely show her face around the country without hecklers and demonstrators showing up, as evidenced in the last few days in Northland and Whanganui. The third appearance of the PM was a non-event due to this opposition. “Hear ye! Hear ye all! The Red Queen is

Jacinda Caught in the Middle of Robertson/Hipkins Fight

David Seymour ACT Leader Jacinda Ardern hasn’t made a decision on whether Aucklanders will need a time slot to leave to city because she’s lost control of the Robertson/Hipkins spat. On Newshub Nation this morning she refused to rule out time slots for Aucklanders to leave the

The Tyrant Cannot Take Away Our Summer

It is doubtful that Jacinda Ardern would recognise actual kindness because it is distinctly different from the fake variety that she and her tyrannical ministers peddle. They rage like roaring lions over a populace where many are still fearful, fully expecting to be locked down over summer if Auckland DHBs

What Happens If the ‘One Source of Truth’ Is Lying?

We were told from the outset of the pandemic that we could only trust the Prime Minister and her officials when they spoke. All other sources of information were to be discounted. That was backed up by various ministers also claiming they were the one source of truth from the

The Angela and Jacinda Show Is Coming

The Angela and Jacinda Show Is Coming

It’s hard to know just where to start the snark. Fran O’Sullivan’s gushing puff-piece about Jacinda Ardern meeting Angela Merkel is what the military folks call “a target-rich environment”. It’s also a rich study in my-side blindness. Consider the opening sentence: German Chancellor Angela Merkel will
