Imagine if the CIA and FBI were disinvited from the US National Security Council, and replaced by the head of the EPA. Because this is the grotesque level of government incompetence Aussies are enduring.

Political Power Shift: More Voters Refuse to Swallow Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Lie

Opening a crushing power bill while sitting freezing (or boiling) in the dark focuses attention on the obvious and only cause: heavily subsidised and hopelessly intermittent wind and solar. Delivered according to the whims of mother nature rather than the demands of human industry, activity and endeavour, wind and solar power were never going to […]

The apparent object of the wind and solar ‘transition’ is to destroy reliable and affordable power supplies. The evidence suggests we are well on our way. Hijacked by ideologues with arts degrees and bankrolled by crony capitalists ready to make a fast buck, at your expense, energy policy is playing out as one almighty nightmare […]

Chris Trotter writes – THERE WAS A TIME when a leftist’s definition of “leftism” corresponded pretty closely to everybody else’s definition. The term identified a coherent worldview – to the point where knowing where someone stood on one issue enabled them to predict with surprising accuracy where they stood on a host of others. If […]

That this editorial appears in the premier journal Science, and is one of a growing number of pieces urging us to respect “indigenous ways of knowing”, suggests that the woke movement has sprouted a new branch. It’s one I’ve discussed many times with respect to Māori “ways of knowing” (Mātauranga Māori, or MM) in New […]

In this 20-minute video, Bari Weiss makes two points. First, the testimony of the MIT, Harvard, and Penn Presidents before a House committee was antisemitic and reprehensible, and reflects a widespread lack of “moral leadership” in universities. Second, this moral leadership requires the elimination of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in higher education. Weiss […]

It’s hard to believe I know, but what other conclusion can be made based on what Green MP (and superstar) Chloe Swarbrick said the other day at the “Pro-Palestine” rally in Auckland: … after what we’ve witnessed, I want to say strongly, clearly and vehemently, the Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand stands for a […]

“Today the West faces challenges without and threats within. But no greater threat exists than that which comes from people inside the West intent on pulling apart the fabric of our societies, piece by piece. By assaulting the majority populations in these countries. By saying that our histories are entirely reprehensible and have nothing good […]
