THE motto of Australia’s political class could well be the reverse of that old saying, “Comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable”.
The May release of more fake than usual unemployment statistics has exposed the emptiness of the propaganda slogan ‘We’re all in this together.’
SUCH is Australia’s success that politicians boast about their performance and citizens are regularly congratulated for their obedience in conforming to government dictates, including shutting down businesses and closing schools. But not all are happy.
NO ONE should be surprised that the Imperial College’s “Professor Lockdown” (Neil Ferguson), has been exposed as a practitioner of the elites’ fundamental rule ‘Do as I say; not as I do’.
In flagrant breach of the very lockdown he advised, he arranged secret assignations with his mistress.
THREATS of a second wave have been around for months, but always in the context of a second wave of COVID-19. The real second wave, however, will not be defined by new cases.
It will be a wave of realisation, when Australians finally understand what has been done to the economy and to their livelihoods, for the sake of only 100-plus lives.

CHINA’S abrupt ban on Australian beef this week is the first shot in an escalating trade war – and not just a petty labelling dispute, as some are calling it.
If Australians fail to recognise this and don’t respond accordingly, the nation will suffer not only short-term pain but crippling generational consequences.
THE head of Australia’s Parliamentary Tax & Revenue Committee has launched a blistering attack on heartless councillors after they increased rates – and their pay packets – mid-pandemic.
The chair of the federal committee Jason Falinski said some councils had failed to “stand up” during the Coronavirus crisis.
IN A previous post, I took the NSW Government to task for playing silly buggers when it instituted a criminal enquiry into the Ruby Princess debacle. The announcement of a general enquiry put my concerns to rest, but only temporarily. It is extremely disappointing that they are still at it, muddying the waters to shield the decision-makers.
