Is it the end of cash? Or a baseless scare? What you need to know about the cash mandate.

Cash is king. It seems like every other week there’s yet another story of a grid collapsing like it did in Spain or of a telco outage like what happened with Optus recently or of payment gateways and banks having outages or with Amazon Web Services going down worldwide causing absolute chaos. But despite these […]

Every time Keir Starmer opens his mouth, he makes it worse.

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 […]

These claims are lies… how do they get away with it? 

We keep being told over and over again that renewables are the future. And in fact, we get told that they are cheaper. Quite recently, there came a report which attracted an enormous number of headlines claiming that electricity generation would have cost up to 50% more or their prices would be 50% higher if […]

Are we going to let the E-Karen just walk away? 

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 […]

Those ‘cheap renewables’ sure need a lot of cash to keep them alive…

Energy is life and cheap abundant energy enables a cheap abundant living standard for us all. That’s what makes the energy grid and this net zero debate in Australia so important because net zero based on real world experience rather than the models has only driven prices up and made living more expensive and more […]

You own nothing… you just don’t know it yet. 

About a month ago, I brought you the story of Toobeah, the small Queensland town that has been claimed by an Aboriginal tribe that doesn’t even live there. With a man-made watering hole that was created after European settlement that’s now been claimed as a culturally significant site for the Aboriginal tribe that again doesn’t […]

Even Albo was laughing at Rudd’s expense.

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 […]

Left wing violence is the excuse for more government power.

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 […]

I’ll say the un-sayable: We need guns for self defence in Australia.

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 […]
