New Zealand’s media is flat out at the moment bemoaning expressions of unapproved views on social media. “Why are they so hateful” they whine. Well, yes, why is there so much discontent, and although there’s no accounting for some of the really venomous opinions, its strange how the left seem so ignorant of the simple…
It might be hard to believe, but once there were two political parties in New Zealand, with opposing views. There must have been, for why else would the National Party’s founding principles emphasize opposition to socialism and communism? Well, whatever, that opposition doesn’t exist today, because the Nats have been asleep at the wheel for…
To paraphrase Mr. Churchill, never in the field of political conflict has so much hypocrisy and cant been revealed by so many leftists in such an extraordinary short time. Since Twitter’s expulsions of people they perceived as “right wing’ from their platform last week, all across the NZ internet, the left has suddenly discovered a…
If you’re undecided about the Trump issue, here are some simple questions that should help you make your mind up. Are you comfortable being in the mainstream media camp? That’s in summary CNN, MSNBC, etc in the States, the ABC & CBC in Australia and Canada, the BBC in the UK, and RNZ, Newshub, and…
Not going to waste too many words on the defeat of the National Party. They were running a close second to Labour until the Covid19 crisis gave Jacinda Ardern the opportunity to pose every day in front of the television cameras as the saviour of the nation. Or until the same crisis was used to…
Police are claiming they have prevented a terrorist act in Christchurch. After a tip from the Antifa associated group Paparoa, two men were originally apprehended, with the help of a SWAT team. One has since been released, the other charged with threatening to kill and will be in court tomorrow. If the scenario is as…
She demands loyalty, but it was her disloyalty to her former leader that was key in bringing about his downfall. Bridges was stabbed in the back by a pack of liberal leftists in the party who had undermined him for almost the whole two years of his leadership. Judith Collins was one of those leftists,…
The widespread use of the term “war on drugs’, usually followed by the claim that said war has failed, is in the main a piece of partisan propaganda. Usually used by (so called) Libertarians & other drug use advocates, its not really true, for there is no war on drugs in the West, there never…
New Zealand’s media is pretty much fully captured by the progressive left. Most political comment especially is delivered from this perspective, and as such political ideas have also infiltrated our science institutions, there exists a coalition between media and science that keeps the NZ public completely in the dark as to alternative views on scientific…
NZ’s politically corrupt mainstream media were in financial trouble well before the Covid19 crisis struck the country. There are numerous reports of meetings with Labour’s Broadcasting Minister Chris Faafoi and media representatives far before the virus reached our shores. The virus’s arrival exacerbated their position initially. Later they were saved by the public’s piqued interest…
I have had a Eureka experience. Not in the bath. I was driving actually, and thinking about political strategy as is my unfortunate habit, when it suddenly hit me. We’ve been doing it wrong. For years, decades even, we’ve been doing it wrong. Basic strategy is that you identify your target, isolate it, and attack…
No citizen with the ability to think rationally (there are some remaining) should be surprised at the New Zealand election outcome. The left have gradually, over the years, managed to shift the country’s political center far to their side of the spectrum. Jacinda Ardern’s party would be seen as extreme left some decades ago, but…
Sure, there is a problem with media bias in New Zealand. They’re mostly all a bunch of left wing/ progressive stooges. Have been for decades, as I’ve pointed out interminably myself. So what’s with all the recent whinging? National’s not getting a “fair go”? So what, they’ve never had a fair go. Worse, they’ve never…
Alinsky’s strategy is to turn every event to a political advantage, & that is what Antifa did with the death of George Floyd. Whereas the Black Lives Matter group exists as an organisation rooted in Cultural Marxism and Critical theory, there were people at their demonstrations who felt genuinely aggrieved by the circumstances of Floyd’s…
Lies everywhere. Like quicksand. We struggle to escape, but the mire just gets deeper, and we sink further into it. The truth is beyond reach, and any attempt to bring truth, or even to suggest there’s something not quite right, is met with thundering disapproval. It rains down in torrents on anyone who in the…
Sky News reported last night that the Black Lives Matter Group in Brisbane Qld couldn’t get to the demonstration, so they handed it over to the Australian Communist Party to organise. This change went unnoticed by the crowd, who gathered in Brisbane and gasped and applauded and cheered over the ghastly rhetoric pouring from the…
This article was written by Fred Reed, a prescient writer I admire so much. His work is hard to find today, so I’m republishing this article here. Not only is it (IMHO) one of the best he wrote, but it is so accurate, and even more so when we look at our world today. Drowning…
If by any kind of strange desire, you wish to see someone doing an imitation of a stick insect on speed, then you need to watch Jack Tame’s interview of Todd Muller on NZ Q and A last night. Tame asked some fairly simple questions of Muller, that he should have had ready answers for…
Nats claim the matter of who voted for Bridges and who voted for Muller is a caucus issue and the voters do not deserve to know. That’s too cute. Voters should know if their representatives can be trusted to be loyal to the leader, or not. It says a lot about an MP if they’re…
Simon Bridges was unpopular with the left, so in an example of either craven cowardice, or rank stupidity, the National Party did as the left wanted them to do so badly, and removed him as leader. Why did the left hate Simon Bridges? Because he was a fighter, and prepared to take it to the…
OK, so the left now fully control both major New Zealand parties. Labour, at least true to their principles, and the National Party, hopelessly infiltrated by the left and now, following the coup by Muller and Kaye, an opposition in name only. Not that it is really much of a loss, given the Nats have…
The Covid19 crisis has in many cases brought bad polling figures for all opposition parties across the globe, as incumbent political leaders make the most of their chance to get their faces in front of the public. Take Australia & New Zealand for example. Scott Morrison’s Liberal Party has received a big boost. Anthony Albenesi’s…
Polling to be released today or tomorrow is predicted to be bad news for the National Party and its leader Simon Bridges. Labour can be as joyful as they wish. The reality is that today’s poll doesn’t matter. Its the one held on election day that matters, and if Jacinda Ardern & Labour are still…
