Scott Morrison’s election victory was a quiet mass protest by “the Quiet Australians” against the tiny, noisy clique of left-elites. Bob Brown’s pathetic clown-parade of screeching rainbow macaws was vocally rejected by town after town. The tiny clique of upper-middle-class almond-fussers playing dress-
Countdown seems to be run by Wombles, Muppets and the perpetually woke now. First, they removed plastic bags and forced us all to borrow their plastic baskets to take our groceries to the car. Then they imposed age limits on energy drinks so that customers had to be at least
2019 was the third consecutive local body election in which I have compiled a voting guide. In 2013, it was a couple of pages knocked together, with a considerable amount of self-interest invested into it.

As a brand new website, The BFD has now completed phase one of its launch and it is now ready for phase two. Phase two cannot be completed and launched without our readers’ financial support. You can help us to launch phase two sooner rather than later by grabbing a
What Stuff is doing is classic gas lighting. Implying that people are mentally ill for disagreeing with them. Unpleasant narcissistic behaviour. They are a disgrace as a Newspaper. SonovaMin After reading SonovaMin and Phil View’s comments yesterday in General debate I just had to check out the offending Stuff
Danny Bright Unless there’s some form of miracle between now and when votes close on Saturday, Auckland seems destined for another three years of Phil Goff as mayor. This is not because the people of Auckland have an overwhelming love for Mr Goff, his policies or the way he’
Otago University professor James Flynn has told Sky News host Andrew Bolt that one of the best things about free speech is that “you often learn from your opponents”.
