The grand theatre of global climate politics sees the West starring as the earnest protagonist, vowing heroic sacrifices, enacting sweeping policies, and preaching virtue to the world. Enter China: the sly antagonist who nods along, utters vague promises, and then quietly builds coal plants while the curtain falls on Aussies. As Leith van Onselen's...
If you've been dodging skyrocketing rents or scrolling endless "no pets, no kids, no hope" listings, you're not alone. Leith van Onselen's latest dispatch paints a grim reversal: Queenslanders, once the kings of sunny escapes, are trickling south to Victoria for a sniff of affordability. Brisbane's median pad? A wallet-busting $936,000, 13% pricier...
If you've been tracking the post-pandemic fallout, you've likely heard whispers of "turbo cancers," aggressive malignancies allegedly accelerating in the vaccinated. Until now, sceptics dismissed it as anecdote or alarmism. But two blockbuster population studies, one from Italy and now a colossal South Korean analysis of 8.4 million adults, are sla...
At London's Global Progressive Action Conference on September 26, 2025, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer unveiled a plan that sent shockwaves through civil liberties advocates: a mandatory digital ID system, dubbed "BritCard," required for every working adult in the United Kingdom, citizen or not, to prove their right to employment. Framed as a bulwa...
As John Leake and Dr. Peter McCullough lay out in their recent book, Vaccines: Mythology, Ideology, and Reality (2025), the COVID era didn't just roll out shots, it erected a full-blown faith where jabs were the saviour, and doubters were heretics. But here's the sting: this "religion" isn't about divine intervention; it's armoured with legal shiel...
Picture this: You're at a dinner party, tossing out a spicy take on, say, free speech or the delusions of climate policy. Half the table nods furiously if it aligns with their tribe; the other half? Eyes glaze over, jaws clench, or worst case they ghost you forever. Sound familiar? According to philosopher Nina Power's recent chat on The Joll...
Today, I'm diving into a topic that's as thorny as it is timely: the corruption bubbling under the surface of academic research. This isn't some fringe conspiracy; it's a systemic rot that's eroding trust in science, wasting billions, and derailing real progress. Inspired by that recent Lancet editorial, "Research integrity—a challenge not a crisis...
If you've been scrolling the news feeds lately, you know the feeling: America's not just polarised; it's fracturing. Mass shootings in churches and waterfront bars, federal troops rolling into Portland like it's a war zone, tear gas choking the air in Chicago suburbs, and far-Left networks openly calling for "carnivals of war" against ICE. Michael ...
In the annals of military history, few summons carry the weight of absolute secrecy and logistical absurdity as the one issued on September 26, 2025, by US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth: Virtually every U.S. general and admiral, roughly 800 flag officers from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and domestic commands, must converge on Marine Corps Base ...
On YouTube firearms knowledgeable people have succeed in replication the supposed shot type that killed Kirk using a 30-06 round, fired against a ballistic dummy wearing level III plate armour. The ricochet does occur, and a neck strike is possible. But here is the problem: it seems Kirk was not wearing body armour at the time, as confirmed by Cand...
Andrew Hastie, the SAS vet turned shadow home affairs minister, isn't mincing words: If the Liberal Party doesn't advocate slamming the brakes on net overseas migration, it "might even die as a political movement." In an Instagram broadside that's ruffled more feathers than a cockatoo in a china shop, Hastie ties the surge to a "housing demand cris...
Picture this: A billionaire contrarian, fresh off bankrolling a vice president and peddling surveillance software to armies, takes the stage in San Francisco to whisper sweet nothings about the Antichrist. Not the horned harbinger of Revelation, mind you, but a bogeyman born from ... paperwork? Peter Thiel, the PayPal co-founder turned Palantir pro...
We live in a world where biotech start-ups promise to disrupt everything from meat to milk, the latest frontier is the most intimate: human breast milk. Companies like Biomilq, despite filing for bankruptcy amid IP disputes earlier this year, have touted lab-cultured mammary cells as a game-changer, producing components like casein and lactose in b...
Under the shadow of Michael Snyder's stark warning on Substack, where he invokes a Rutgers study forecasting 5 billion starvation deaths in a US-Russia nuclear clash, the world feels like it's teetering on a razor's edge. As of today, headlines scream of UN Security Council showdowns, with Russia and China scrambling to delay Iran sanctions sn...
After a tragedy, the human mind seeks patterns, anything to impose order on chaos. The assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, has unleashed a torrent of online speculation, much of it fixated on a 27-year-old thriller starring Nicolas Cage: Brian De Palma's Snake Eyes. What began as a niche observation on social ...
President Trump's UN zinger, "This 'climate change,' it's the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world," struck a chord with John Leake, the erstwhile Greenpeace foot soldier turned sceptic. Leake, in his September 26 Substack dispatch, nods vigorously, channelling his inner environmentalist gone rogue to spotlight Texas scorcher records from...
Here our wide brown land of vegemite and venomous critters, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, affectionately dubbed "Commissar Albo" by his detractors, has taken his government's draconian social media ban for under-16s on a world tour. At a slick side event during the UN General Assembly in New York, Europe's Ursula von der Leyen hailed Australia's...
The cacophony of culture wars: where feelings often eclipse facts, Richard Dawkins emerges as a voice for reason, ignoring his atheism for this post. His latest salvo, excerpted in the anthology The War on Science (edited by Lawrence Krauss and published by Post Hill Press), skewers the mantra "trans women are women" as not just misguided but "scie...
It's a move straight out of a Philip K. Dick novel: Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer unveiled plans recently for a mandatory digital ID scheme, the so-called "BritCard," that would turn every working adult in the UK into a walking barcode. No more casual job starts or flat rentals without flashing your app-linked creds against a central database, al...
The fevered haze of 2020: COVID gripped the globe, and disposable face masks morphed from niche medical gear to ubiquitous emblem, a badge of virtue, a shield against the unseen. Governments mandated them, celebrities flaunted them, and the Left embraced them as a progressive sacrament, symbolising collective care over individual liberty. Yet, fast...
