Well, prior to the last federal election, I brought you the news that both of our major parties, Liberal and Labor, had promised that they would return ownership of the Port of Darwin into Australian hands if they were elected. Well, it’s been brought to my attention thanks to the excellent work of Senator Malcolm […]
The Liberal Party under Sussan Ley are sleepwalking into oblivion, being guided by opinion polls and by shallow advice from the very same people that led them into the wilderness in the first place. People like Senator Andrew McLachlan, who has told Sussan Ley that a true conservative would back strong action on emissions reductions […]
Well, some wonderful news has come out of South America over the weekend that Javier Milei, the president of Argentina, has had a wonderful result at their president, their non-presidential rather, their midterm elections. It’s all a little bit arcane and very different to Australia’s electoral system. So, I thought who better to discuss it […]
The UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has provided a little more detail on how the UK’s digital ID, also known as the Brit card, will work. And if he thought that these new comments were going to reduce opposition, then he is sorely mistaken. As we watch these videos, note that he’s been quite careful […]
Australia’s e-safety commissioner Julie Inman Grant says she’s ready to leave the role, claiming that threats to her family and online trolls have made her walk away. It’s quite an admission from the woman who was given extraordinary powers by the Morrison government, who expanded her office and powers in 2021. If she can’t handle […]
Anthony Albanese just got lucky and Australia has once again proved that we are the lucky country. Although that’s not as great a thing as you might presume. I’ve spoken before about the fact that Donald Horn, who wrote the book The Lucky Country, wasn’t being nice. He was observing that so much of Australia’s […]
You don’t hate the media enough. It’s been said time and time again. And yet somehow the media keep giving us more examples of how that is true. The most recent example is Channel 7 and other commercial networks selectively editing comments from a senior police officer stating plain as day that it was left-wing […]
Nothing says failed state quite like taxpayers hiring private security guards to patrol their suburbs and then those private security guards needing guns for their own protection. But Victoria is in exactly that failed state situation as was reported by the Age this morning. I’m going to go through this article because it paints a […]
Did you hear the story about the brothel worker who used pepper spray to protect herself from an unruly client? Well, it’s a great story. Gets a little spicy, but it has a happy ending. No, you didn’t get it. Neither did he. All jokes aside, I absolutely love this story for so many reasons, […]
Senator Lidia Thorpe is no stranger to attention-seeking behavior, but threatening to burn down Parliament House in support of the Palestinian cause isn’t just attention-seeking. In my view, it’s incitement. And I would know because I’ve been arrested and charged with incitement for doing far less. Let’s have a listen to what she said. [From […]
