Now That’s a United Voice!

You know, I’m not even mad when gibbering leftists and screeching, suspiciously pale “indigenous activists” scream and stamp their feet and burn the Australian flag. On the contrary, keep it up, I say. These clowns are doing more to make the “No” case for the upcoming “Indigenous Voice” referendum

Where the Flag Can’t Be Flown

It’s the next logical step in the local front of the Woke War on the West: an Australian council has banned the Australian flag. Should we really be surprised? The Australian left, for all that they sneer at all things “American”, are slavishly imitative of the American left. Whatever

Is the System Really Broken?

In predictable “New Zealand Disease” fashion there has been a lot of pearl-clutching and hand-wringing about the recent local body elections. In particular, they are asking whether the system is broken because of the low voter turnout in most parts of the country. No, the system isn’t
