When I received my new kettle a few days ago, it whistled and yelled loudly that it had arrived.    Poor Shaydee was very upset at the noise.   Noise has become something that many people no longer like.   Especially when it is shrill and high pitched.   Like so many young people today.   So many lefties love to screech.   Maybe, like my kettle, they are just letting off steam?    Perhaps they are frustrated because they are told what to think and not how to think. 

Have you ever wondered how and why the Youth of today are  holding rallies ,  their loud voices proclaiming all sorts of alarming predictions for the future.   Using people like Greta Thunberg to speak with fire and brimstone about the end of the world.   Pretending that young kindergarten  children  have important things to say about what they think the future holds.   Even using "old white  men " who should know better to say the end is nigh!      People who are easily conned into believing things that all the Scientists are telling us is untrue. 

Maybe young people today are like my kettle? Screaming and letting off steam because no one will let them have ambition and think for themselves. 

Yesterday, Pauline Hanson did something that many might think as being very clever. Others? Not so much. She announced that former Liberal MP Craig Kelly, who had lost membership in the Liberal Party, and had become the leader of Clive Palmer's United Australia Party, had defected from Clive and joined her in order to get traction in the NSW parliament. So where does that leave us? 

How one can summarise what has happened in one sentence is a tough ask. But that is about the best I can do. For now. 

Was it a good move? For Pauline or for Craig? For myself, I genuinely don't know. I do have to ask myself if Clive is the big loser. Or, perhaps, could Craig and Pauline have benefited from Clive's financial input? What a pudding fest this is. The situation is certainly a bit of a quandry. 

Should one laugh or cry at the news ABC is dumping its so-called “fact checkers” at RMIT University? ABC news director Justin Stevens emailed staff last week explaining that the national broadcaster’s seven-year partnership with RMIT won’t be renewed. [Cue laughter]. But Stevens also announced that the ABC would set up an in-house “fact-check” unit called ABC News Verify [Cue tears].

ABC News Verify – doubtless modelled on “BBC Verify” which launched a year ago – will maintain the rage against whatever contradicts the ABC’s version of truth-telling. For example, that renewables are cheapest, Trump won in 2016 by colluding with Putin, men can become women and vice versa, and Dark Emu author Bruce Pascoe, Australia’s leading fauxborigine, is of Yuin, Bunurong and Tasmanian Aboriginal ancestry.[1]
