Lessons the Left Refuse to Learn
The “shock” Australian election result wasn’t that much of a shock to me. In fact, it all seemed eerily familiar. Any one with the ability to get outside their bubble and actually feel the pulse of the electorate knew that there was no great mood for change. Sure, the dislike …
The Assange Problem
Regular readers of this irregular and somewhat erratic publication know where I stand on the treatment of Julian Assange. Some may have noted my apparent silence after his extraction from the Ecuadorian arrest and subsequent sentencing. Social media followers may have seen my constant re-tweeting of Julian’s supporters posts but …
Julian Assange Should Be an Election Issue
At the time of writing, there is genuine fear circulating among Assange supporters. Ecuador have been making noises about handing Assange over to the UK (ostensibly for a bail violation but in reality to extradite him to the US). There has been a unified response from supporters on both the …
Thoughts About The Melbourne Free Assange Rally

Is ABC Australia the Deep State’s Bitch?
It’s Your ABC Isn’t It? For most of my life, I have regarded the ABC as an Australian national treasure. I bought the 19c a day campaign. I bought the independent and fearless line that it’s high profile current affairs shows implied. I grew up watching 4 corners, listening to …
Pathetic, Conflicted and Corrupted: Welcome to Fake News
Regular readers will know that I have a deep abiding mistrust of “mainstream” media, it’s sources and the narratives it runs. It wasn’t always that way. For much of my life I’ve had a deep respect for many news institutions. That respect has gradually ebbed away as the MSM has …
Top 10 Songs By The Sweet
The Sweet were the first band that I really ever followed and I kind of accidentally got there. My brother was a big fan of Fox on the Run and I heard it a couple of times without really getting it, then somehow I heard Hellraiser on the radio. It …
