This weekend the world's third largest economy, Germany, has a federal election. You've probably been told the AfD is a 'nasty far right' party. Until recently I had fallen for that ... but the AfD are a conservative-libertarian party. I stand with Elon Musk. I endorse the AfD.

Driving up to Scone through the Hunter Valley and keep seeing the massive trains, all loaded up with beautiful coal … on their way to China. This coal underpins the prosperity of NSW … and these exports just demonstrate how insane our self-destructive ‘renewable rollout’ is.

Earlier today I visited the Aussie Cossack at the Russian consulate where he’s been holed up for over three years. It was a welfare check on a mate. I can report he’s holding up quite well and is in good spirits. For background please watch video in comments.

🚨 Last week I moved an amendment to Premier Minns anti-free speech laws ... that would have protected non-vocal forms of political expression (like tattoos). I argued that yes we'd all love to live in a society where none had a desire to exhibit extremist symbols etc ... but passing laws prohibiting them only fuels an angry underground. "Free speech should not be the plaything of politicians. There'll be another crisis and we'll come back here and ban more stuff. We are slowly heading towards a society which George Orwell warned us about. What we need more than anything in this country is a referendum to change the constitution. I know that referendums typically fail ... but I can absolutely promise you, if the Australian people (after this barrage of anti free speech legislation) get a vote on a US-style First Amendment they'll vote for it.'

🚨 Premier Minns now has the laws in place for police to start door knocking citizens over social media posts. 40 people a day are getting door knocked in the UK. My hunch is it's about to start in NSW. Here are some guidelines of what to do if the cops come for you. (*Disclaimer - this is not legal advice etc). Libertarian Party NSW (Liberal Democrats)

🚨 Excited to announce the launch of a new podcast: The Political History of Australia. The link in this post is an introductory sample episode: A Day at the Cricket with Edmund Barton. This introductory episode is a sample of what's to come when we get to the 1870s. It's a little known but colourful insight into how our first PM became a public figure overnight. The first four official episodes will be released later this week ... and then I'm aiming for one episode a week. Suspect there'll be around 100 in total that will take us from the pre-Captain Cook era to the present day. The next post has a general promo of the series. Listen and subscribe at YouTube here - Listen and subscribe at Rumble here - And this link will take you to either Apple Podcasts or Spotify - Please tune in and share.

🚨 One of the most heroic COVID resistors was Aussie Cossack. He has since been treated with gross malice by the authorities and has effectively been in solitary confinement for over 1000 days. Please take three minutes to learn about this sorry saga. #FreeAussieCossack

When low IQ Jacinda Ardern was PM of New Zealand, the low IQ Aussie corporate media couldn’t stop fawning over her. But Aussies barely hear about the new NZ govt … because it’s so good. Here’s the NZ minister for mining speaking in Sydney today.

🚨 Today in parliament I spoke up in defence of John Adams and his efforts for the public to know what the ABC was platforming in 1975 ... which was blatant pedophilia (listen to tape in comments). The ABC initially denied the tape existed ... and now that Mr Adams has released it, they are threatening legal action. The ABC should withdraw that threat ... but if they follow through and it goes to court they will only make John Adams are hero.

Reporter: “Mr Dutton why is it so hard just to say ‘climate change’ and acknowledge it exists?” Dutton: ‘I believe in climate change. I’ve been very clear about that. We’re the only party with a credible pathway to achieve net-zero by 2050.’ Is it too late for a #LibSpill?

🚨 Two simple steps to crash petrol prices in Australia. The Iran War is not going according to plan. When wars start, the protagonists often assumes it'll be a short, sharp operation ... but they do have a habit of dragging on and on. Usually costs around $95 to fill my car ... today it was $165. If this goes on for much longer, we are going to be smashed by a recession (ask your grandparents about 1973). The federal government can fix this right now with two simple moves: 1. Lift the 2014 ban on importing Russian oil. We are already importing a heap of Russian oil ... but we do it via India who refine it and take a big mark-up which is paid by you at the bowser. So pre-war the sanctions were pointless but now they are a national security threat. The US has done this. Chris Bowen has said it is under consideration - good. 2. Scrap the federal fuel tax (they call it an “excise” to sound fancy). That tax adds 52.6 cents a litre. I’d prefer both gone permanently, but if our leaders can’t stomach that, suspend both measures until the Strait of Hormuz is back to full capacity. It is prudent to assume that will not be for some time.

Thank you Ben Fordham Live for having me on to discuss why I marched on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Ben and Nyunggai Warren Mundine AO were surprised when I said, 'Bibi funded Hamas.' I thought everyone knew that - every major news outlet has stories on it. Below is a report from the Times of Israel.

🚨 Defending Karl Stefanovic. Companies are free to hire and fire. The public is also free to call out when corporate media tries to decide which ideas Australians are allowed to hear. Nine and its Fairfax predecessor have gone through at least seven major rounds of significant staff cuts in the past couple of decades. Every time, management swears “this is the last one.” Then revenues keep falling and another round arrives. Corporate media can’t compete with the open, messy marketplace of ideas on the internet. Karl going solo will probably do what it did for Tucker and Piers - make him more interesting once liberated from corporate bosses with a woke agenda. Libertarian Party NSW (Liberal Democrats)
