    I am interested to find out where my readers stand in the political spectrum so I have created a poll to find out.
    While we are at it there is the question of religion

The Latte sippers idea of Justice

Rape is a terrible crime on so many different levels, to its victims it is devastating, in some instances they feel that being murdered would have brought them less suffering. Victims are forever scared by this horrid crime. Prosecutors hate the crime because the evidence upon which they must act is far too often only [...]

Recognise the problem

Instances of Muslim-on-unbeliever violence inspire the victim school to dig up new and imaginative excuses. Colorful examples (drawing on my article and weblog entry about denying Islamist terrorism) include:

1990: “A prescription drug for … depression” (to explain the assassination of Rabbi Meir Kahane)
1991: “A robbery gone wrong” (the murder of Makin Morcos in Sydney)
1994: “Road [...]

The fence sitters delima

Now this is a turn up for the books, who would have thought that the spokesman for the boat load of Sri Lankians detained by the Indonesians is not what he claims to be?
You can bet the Latte Sippers who want to insist that every claimant is Kosher will be trying very hard to avoid [...]

Take them at their word

I “love” the way that my Latte sipping friends want to insist that Islam and its nutters do not want to conquer the world . Mainly because it seems to me to be a valiant imitation of the ostrich’s defensive head burying behaviour. The fact of the matter is that among the motivated believers  a [...]

Drink driving

When I was active in the Apex Club one of our members worked as a delivery driver for a lagre soft drink company and his name badge proudly proclaimed that he was a “Drink Driver”, The double entendre of that badge made all of us laugh most heartily. Of course driving while pissed is never [...]

Down and UP

Although I enjoy the security of owning my own home I have a great deal of respect for the idea of public housing that is available to people at a reasonable rent and with secure long term tenancy, If you leave aside the investment potential of home ownership the most important thing that everyone needs [...]

“CSIRO managers had written to the journal’s editor demanding the paper not be published.”

When I first heard that the government of Brother Number One was planning to tackle “Global Warming” with an ETS I immediately had a vision of the great leader trying to control a very large bus from the back seat by tying a couple of strands of soggy spaghetti to the steering wheel and [...]

Double or denial

KEVIN Rudd is preparing to double the size of Australia’s Christmas Island detention centre in a stark confirmation that his government expects a continuing flood of asylum-seekers from Sri Lanka.
The multi-million-dollar upgrade, sparked by a sharp increase in boatpeople arrivals in the past month, is expected to lift the facility’s capacity to as much as [...]

“They don’t need to integrate if they don’t want to or find it difficult.”

While the world burns under the pressure of mass migration the Latte sippers chill out believing in a “we are all one ” paradigm that will be laughed at (with more than a few tears) by the future generations who will face a world where  Europeans become a minority people  in their own countries…

How did [...]

Those evil vegetarians are at it again

Is anyone actaully surprised that the most vociferous proponents of the Warminista faith are vegetarians? Now I have absolutely nothing against the idea of eating a diet that contains a high proportion of Veg. But the thought of never having a large slab of dead animal again sounds too much like [...]

Leftist Social Engineering stuffs the Poms

The lesson in Melanie Philips’ piece is that you deliberately try to re-engineer a whole country at your peril.

In its 1997 election manifesto, Labour promised ‘firm control over immigration’ and in 2005 it promised a ‘crackdown on abuse’. In 2001, its manifesto merely said that the immigration rules needed [...]

In the Egyptian river

When I wrote a piece denouncing Brother Number One’s faux indignation the other day some commentators expressed disbelief that Tuckey could have a point. One even suggested that Tuckey deserved “ to be punched in the head” for his quite reasonable suggestion that it was possible for a would be terrorist to hide [...]

An outburst of contrived indignation

If there is one thing that anyone given the task of protecting this nation from the terrorist threat can not do it is to rule out any way  that a would be terrorist could get into the country. However if you are a minion of the left the appropriate response to the quite reasonable [...]

Just fronting up here in a leaky boat does not make someone a “refugee”.

I have argued that the definition and administrative treatment of such claimants is far too simplistic and that if they ultimately succeed in getting residency here after a relatively short period of time it will be like putting up a large neon sign saying that Australia as a destination for people smugglers is THE [...]

“The CCTV showed the sickening, brutal and repeated attack.”

As a younger man I just never heard of the sort of behaviour by women that the story I quote below reports, quite simply women did not feel emboldened enough to act the way that this “gang” did.

The women – all from the same family – targeted Matthew Campbell, 38, at random, kicking and stamping [...]
