France Reaps the Reward of Open Borders

Remember when Melbourne didn’t have a problem with violent African gangs? Just ignore all those violent crimes committed by African “networked criminal offenders”.

There’s an old saying that the more a man goes out of his way to assure you of his honesty, the more closely you should watch your pockets. In politics, the more a party blatherskites about “integrity”, the more you know that they’re more crooked than Dan Andrew’

Someone Does Something… Don’t Ask What

While the brow-furrowing Establishment is warning New Zealanders to keep a distrustful eye on little white girls with braided hair and flowers, there’s a very real wannabe terrorist fronting court. Something tells me he isn’t likely to be into children’s clothing unless it’s Size 6

The Poll That Dooms the Queen of Hearts and Daffy Duck

For some time it has been obvious to me that the polls have failed to reflect the true mood of the country. There seems to have been a lag between what the poll numbers were throwing up and where the country actually was. The numbers for Labour have seemed on
