Australia?s Conservatives Are Paying the Price of Kowtowing to the Left Sat Apr 26, 2025 11:00 | Dr James Allan
As the Australian Right-of-centre Liberal party stares down the barrel of another election defeat, it's further proof, says Professor James Allan, that there are no prizes for conservatives who kowtow to the Left.

The WHO?s Pandemic Treaty Consolidates the Pandemic Preparedness Scam Sat Apr 26, 2025 09:00 | Dr David Bell
The WHO's new Pandemic Agreement, set to be agreed next month, consolidates the pandemic preparedness scam, says Dr David Bell. Built on a heap of falsehoods about the true health risks humanity faces, it must be rejected.

Ed Miliband's brazen claim that UK electricity prices are high because of gas ? even though over half the cost comes from renewables charges ? confirms him as the UK's major source of Net Zero disinformation.

for asking John Kerry some questions

The Youtube video link below shows a student being arrested and tazered for asking John Kerry, among other things, why he conceded the presidential election when he allegedly would have known it was rigged. The student was doing nothing other than asking questions which Kerry did not want to answer. He was not violent in any way, nevertheless he was bundled off by security men in front of a large audience not one of whom responded to his cries for help - despite having been clapped by a number of them just moments earlier. He was handcuffed and then tazered while completely defenceless. The only apparent attempt to help him on the video is the sound of a lone woman screaming at the police to stop what they were doing.

This story should be national front page news coverage all around the world. The land of the free and the home of the brave exposed for what it is. The US is in no position to lecture any other country about democracy or human rights abuses:
