And they’re all the same. It’s almost a rule that the bigger they are the worse they are. Telstra, Optus, Qantas, the big banks, Coles, Woolworths. All run by wildly overpaid ‘chief executives’ who would rather wrestle crocodiles than actually encounter a customer. Fuck ‘em all.

Christ I hate corporate Australia. They take your money quickly enough but, when they don’t deliver, they run for cover. For all the bullshit about customer care, when it goes wrong they shunt you to some call centre in Mumbai or Manila where nobody has a clue how to fix things.

Challenged from without and from within, there's now a real danger that we might be living through the twilight of the West, facing not just geopolitical challenges, but civilisational eclipse as people lose the beliefs that once sustained them. Western Civilisation, especially its English-speaking variant, once seemed unassailable; because what else has produced societies that were free, fair, rich, and safe in a way that no others were. But that restless curiosity and capacity for self-criticism has now metastasised into a corrosive form of civilisational self-loathing. Western Civilisation is worth believing in, and it is worth fighting for. My address to the next generation of Western leaders at @uaustinorg.

How’s Pauline Hanson going to run a country, if she can’t answer a simple question from a rookie reporter from channel 9? This grifting, old feral hag is trying to emulate her pedophile idol Trump. 😂🤡 #auspol #abc730 @PaulineHansonOz @SkyNewsAust

Every few years our political class goes looking for the “quiet Australians.” In 2019 they found a flattering fiction…..the aspirational mortgage-belt couple, the franking-credit retiree, the tradie worried about his ute that was being threatened by EVs. It was all BS. There was zero data behind any of it. But it told us exactly which Australians our political and commentariat class are willing to lend agency to. It’s almost never the people who actually are the real quiet Australians. The real ones don’t read the opinion pages. They empty your bins. They wipe your parents in aged care. They clean the office after you’ve gone home. They work the night shift at the meatworks. And the political class treats their labour as the one cost that can always be squeezed and the one claim that can always be deferred. Watch what happened when 7,000 ASU members stopped Melbourne’s bins this year. The councils blamed the state’s rate cap. The state said the councils were sitting on healthy surpluses and crying poor. Each side pointed at the other, and the garbo, a human being who just wanted to stop picking up weekend shifts to break even, dissolved into the gap between two institutions. That’s the bet our political class makes again and again: muddy who’s responsible, and the public will shrug and move on. But voters aren’t fooled, and this is where the political class keeps getting it catastrophically wrong. In Hume, the council that told 17,000 households their bins were a casualty of state stinginess is the same council that found $24 million to restore the Broadmeadows Town Hall. The money is always there for the building, the precinct, the plaza, their own renos. It’s the people who keep the suburb from drowning in its own waste who are told the well has run dry, that there is no money to help them feed their kids. This is why the system is being turned over. We keep telling ourselves the revolt against the major parties, the surge to One Nation, is a story about culture or grievance or misinformation. A moral failing in the voter to be fixed with better messaging. It is nothing of the sort. It is an entirely rational response from an outer-suburban, mortgage-stressed working class that has watched its political class find money and agency for everyone except people like them. My article on why Garbos are just as important as health workers - below.

This woman likes laying the blame on others but keeps quiet when she is the centre of unwanted attention. She loves rorting the system. Nationals Senator Bridget McKenzie billed public to attend son’s wedding smh.com.au/politics/victo…

Another night, another firebombing in Melbourne. The city is under siege. Same in Brisbane. There they attack you in your own home at night. While you sleep. Tonight at 5pm, the Victorian Opposition Leader Jess Wilson and QLD Police Union President Shane Prior come together.
