Audience in Melbourne are completely surprised by this incredible performance when Boris Johnson breaks into Homeric Greek. This video is a clip from the ABC show Big Ideas where Boris recites an extract from the Greek Poem “The Iliad”. Hilarious and apparently impromptu. If you have a great Youtube or

Labour, still refusing to face reality after their election drubbing in the UK, are continuing to remain utterly deluded. There are none more deluded than leadership aspirant Rebecca Long-Bailey. She has declared that she will stick with the socialist policies that were soundly defeated in the election. The Guardian reports

TV historian Prof David Starkey analyses the 2019 general election result. Is this the new British revolution? How will history remember the last Parliament of 2017-19? Why did Labour lose? Should Boris take his chance to scrap the licence fee? Should we reform the civil service? If you have a
During the John Key led government we saw Labour here in New Zealand blame stupid voters for being hoodwinked into voting for that nice Mr Key. That behaviour led to ignominious defeat under Phil Goff and again under David Cunliffe. National is now exhibiting the same delusion, that the voters
The world’s most spoiled brat has been given ecumenical status yet again, this time on the cover of Time magazine, as ‘Person of the Year’. Indeed, Time is so woke these days that choosing a real hero would have been an anathema to their bleeding liberal hearts. The sad
