NZ Climate change
Face of the Day
What a bunch of cowards the Wellington Extinction Rebellion activists are, hiding behind the skirts of the elderly and children. HOW DARE THEY!
It’s Because She’s a Girl!
Radio host and psychologist Kyle MacDonald opines in a paper that the reason Greta Thunberg is given a hard time is because Greta is a girl. Bad things happen when we don’t listen to children. It wasn’t that long ago we sent them up chimneys, and worked them
World-Class Plonkery, Writ Large
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
Militant Vegans Need to Take a Long Walk off a Short Pier
Karl du Fresne writes about the po-faced, weirdo, wowsers starting to infiltrate our supermarkets while annoying good, normal, meat-eating, Kiwi shoppers: My wife and I don’t always agree about things – just choosing a paint colour for the bathroom can take months. But we celebrated a moment of instant accord
Rich, Old, Pale, Stale, Male Manipulates Climate Strikers
How ironic that a rich, old, pale, stale, male, one-percenter (or more likely a 0.01%er) should be the one that has galvanised the oppressed comrades on the left to ‘strike’ for climate. Soros, ranked at 178 in the rich list, is reputedly worth $US8.3 billion. A member
Muller Mangles the Message
Todd Muller has posted some thoughts on Friday’s School Strike for Climate on his Facebook page. As he predicted, there has been a bit of a ‘pile on’ in the comments because he wasn’t alarmist enough. The climate reality deniers cannot handle anything but complete subservience to the
The Quiet Revolution
We all want a cleaner, more sustainable environment, but effective changes won’t come from loony Greens or ranting adolescents. They will come from sensible decision making based on scientific data, not emotional rage. We should remember this when we are assaulted by strident demands from a generation which rejects
A Climate of Fear
By George Isn’t it ironic that the flagship policy this year presented by this COLs, led by Ardern, was to focus on mental health and wellbeing? Hundreds of millions of dollars have been targeted to alleviate what is perceived to be the declining state of emotional stability within society,
Climate Change Contemptibles
Those promoting climate change would have us believe it is out of control when it is becoming increasingly obvious it is they who are out of control. The use of a sixteen year old girl at the U.N. to parrot off a speech on a subject she has been
Things That Make Me Go Hmm
At all the ‘Meet the Candidates” evenings for the Local Body elections in Tauranga and the Western Bay of Plenty the earnest folk at the ‘Carbon Reduction Group’ have been handing out these flyers: They did not even bother to claim that it was printed with non-petroleum based inks or
Come Back Down to Earth, Jacinda
Jacinda’s reception at the UN this year was not as starlit as it was in 2018. She was a novelty last year. The gloss does seem to be wearing off nowadays for Jacinda, as she pursues pet projects such as trying to control the internet, which nobody other than
Jacinda Is All Talk
As if we didn’t already know… Bryce Edwards writes for The Guardian this week and expresses disappointment that Jacinda, known as the anti-Trump, is clearly nothing of the sort. To be honest, I am somewhat relieved that she does not appear to have been as rude to him as
A Novice on the World Stage
I have long held A Newspaper in such regard that I refuse to pay for its premium content. The few articles worth reading amongst endless pieces of mundane dross means the economics just don’t stack up. Content about Ardern is freely available as she doesn’t rate premium content
Massive Waste of Taxpayer Money for Virtue Signalling Companies
A major new government campaign to convince companies to cut down on their carbon emissions has splashed the cash in a big-budget one million dollar production. The 90-second long ad opens with Martin Luther King Jr’s ‘I have a dream’ speech (which has NOTHING to do with carbon) and
