    Who is Anthony Albanese and what is hiding behind his Communist connections and ideology?

    The Federal Election has not been called yet but electioneering is well underway in my neck of the woods.
    I am seeing posters for Labour, Greens, Teals and Liberals all over the place.
    I don’t much like any of those parties but the Libs are the least worst.
    I will vote for Freedom Friendly Minor Parties as far as possible.
    So far I have seen a little bit of activity from Gerard Rennick (Freedom First) amd Clive Palmer (Trumpets of Patriots). Are there any others I should look out for?

      I’d give Clive’s party a wide berth. I don’t trust Clive as far as I could dropkick him.

      Freedom First and One Nation would be my leanings.

        Please don’t dismiss Clive.

        Look at the Trumpets of Patriots (formerly UAP) performance of the Senator for Victoria, Senator Babet.

        Few if any members of the Thinking Community would disagree with anything he says inside or outside Parliament. He is fully on track with people here.

        Check out his YouTube channel https://youtube.com/@senatorbabet or Farcebook.

          David Maddison,

          Few … would disagree with anything he says…

          That’s as may be, but it’s what he *does* that matters. What he has done in the past seems a pretty good reason to dismiss him.

    “Net zero by 2050 ‘impossible’ for UK, says Badenoch”

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly3pnjyzp4o

    Also in Tuesday’s ‘Daily Telegraph’ …
    Whilst it is a break with the uniparty consensus, Badenoch – perhaps to avoid frightening the horses toooo much – still wants Nut Zero some day.
    “In a speech, Badenoch said net zero cannot be achieved by 2050 “without a serious drop in our living standards or by bankrupting us”. The Conservative leader did not set out an alternative target date, but said she would consider doing so if her party found a better way of delivering net zero.”

    Usual misdirection – or lies – from the BBC – “Electricity is increasingly generated from renewable energy in the UK, and the cost of renewable generation has significantly fallen in the past decade.”

    Well, one step forward from a Tory, I suppose.
    Many more steps needed.

    From Newsmax.

    Climate change campaigning billionaire, Mike Cannon-Brookes burns at least 5.6 metric tons per hour of carbon dioxide in his newly purchased private jet.

    His trip from Sydney to Melbourne in the Bombardier 7500 jet to attend The Australian Formula One would have consumed 450 gallons of fuel per hour, according to published plane specifications.

    Mr Cannon-Brookes acknowledged experiencing a “deep internal conflict” over the purchase but ultimately went ahead with it for several personal reasons.

    6 tons of CO2 is roughly the amount of emissions produced by one and a half typical households over the course of a year.

    According to a world climate change calculator, it would take around 272 mature trees a year to offset that amount of carbon.

    I’m glad his “deep internal conflict” over purchasing the private jet didn’t prevent him from attending the “bread and circuses” event of the Formula 1 Grand Prix when there are constant commercial flights between Sydney and Melbourne.

      Tonyb,
      What that article doesn’t mention is where this “network of ultra-fast charging devices” is going to come from. A small garage with just 4 “nozzles” will need to deal with peak power of 4 MW. To put that in perspective, the whole Westmead Hospital precinct (pdf report) has a peak power consumption of about 40 MW.

      IOW, ten small garages need as much capacity as an entire hospital district. These 5-minute fills won’t come cheap.

    This is unbelievable.

    Australian “academics” in “universities” in receipt of US taxpayer money are complaining that they are being asked questions like whether they are also being funded by countries hostile to the United States, and whether they support the official US Government policy of “only” two genders and whether they support free speech etc..

    They they turn around and have the chutzpah to complain of interference with Australian sovereignty. It’s the US taxpayers’ money FFS. They have every right to know how Australian “academic” lowlifes are mis-spending it and can withdraw it for any reason they feel like and I hope they do.

    Here are some typical comments from an Australian “university”:

    https://www.scu.edu.au/news/2025/tc-trump-influence-on-australian-universities/

    The US government has sent a 36-point questionnaire to some Australian researchers who are working on joint projects with US colleagues.

    ABC Radio National reports at least eight Australian universities are involved. Their research areas include foreign aid, medicine, vaccines and defence. The New York Times reports a similar document has also been sent to other overseas organisations with US funding links.

    The questions are wide-ranging and cover academics’ links to China as well as their projects’ focus on topics such as diversity, inclusion and gender identity, as well as climate change.

    Some of the specific questions include:

    Can you confirm that your organisation has not received ANY funding from PRC People’s Republic of China, Russia, Cuba or Iran?

    Can you confirm that this is no DEI [diversity, equity and inclusion] project or DEI elements of the project? [sic]

    Does this project take appropriate measures to protect women and to defend against gender ideology as defined in the below Executive Order?

    Can you confirm this is not a climate or “environmental justice” project or include such elements?

    The survey also covers issues such as secure borders with Mexico, ending government waste, terrorism, the war on opioids, and “eradicating anti-Christian bias”.

    The Group of Eight says the US has already suspended or terminated research grants with six of its eight member universities.

    The National Tertiary Education Union also labelled the survey “blatant foreign interference”.

    A spokesperson for Education Minister Jason Clare says Australia is “engaging with the US government to understand what these measures mean for future funding and collaboration”.

    You can download the full document of US Government questions at the link.

    Note to US taxpayers. You have absolutely nothing to gain by giving your hard earned taxes to these “universities” who ceased doing genuine scholarship decades ago and who are typically anti-American, anti-Australian, anti-Western, Communist and anti-Judeo-Christian religion in orientation. Contact your congressthing and demand the funding be withdrawn.

    “Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to halt airstrikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure but rejected a full and immediate 30-day ceasefire and called for an end to military aid for Kyiv in a lengthy, “frank” phone call with US President Donald Trump…“will begin with an energy and infrastructure ceasefire, as well as technical negotiations on implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea, full ceasefire and permanent peace”…He emphasised a key condition “should be the complete cessation of foreign military aid and the provision of intelligence information to Kyiv”.”

    https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/putin-agrees-to-limited-ukraine-ceasefire-after-call-with-trump-white-house-20250319-p5lkm6.html

    So the Russians get America out of the missile launches, America gets Russia out of their arms shipments via the Black Sea, and the Russian Army gets to grind forward as usual.

    Any bets on who breaks the agreement first?

      21st Century Colonialism is being played out by 3 high rollers:
      One side plays chess
      Another plays Mahjong
      And lastly, cards.

      Currently, the chess player has the card player on the defensive. The card player has laid down a card, and the chess player neatly sidestepped the challenge by moving a pawn to one side.
