As an Australian citizen I am constantly bewildered by the antics of my nation's government, which has all the appearances of having gone insane, lost the plot, has a few Kangaroos loose in the top paddock and have been carried away by delusions of their own grandeur. Do they really believe they can out-compete a... Continue Reading →
No “Back To The Future” For The West…
...So says Stan Grant, an Australian First Nations descendent of the Wiradjuri people (though if Australia was one nation I would not need to make that distinction), news presenter, journalist, and Professor of Global Affairs at Griffith University in Queensland. Stan is a man who knows a thing or two, though not quite perceptive enough to not see China as... Continue Reading →
How Foolish of Australia: Send a Kangaroo to Slay a Dragon?
The Scomo government of Australia is responsible to the Australian people for the loss of $20 billion of national revenue (so far - things could, no, will, get much worse) from the nation's now majorly pissed off major trading partner, China. Australia is being run by idiots of the highest order, backed by other 'useful... Continue Reading →
Australia’s Choice – Lowbrow Political Stunts
'Political Stunts' are revealed as being Australia's 'Low Ceiling', 'Lowbrow', best option, perhaps 'Only Option', for China Policy. That is the sad and lonely path along which is where being a toe-rag of the US (at least one level down from 'lapdog') takes you. It is guaranteed not to end well - for Australians. I...

I find it sickening that... Continue Reading →
Australia, In A Pickle, “Has Only Itself To Blame”
Australia is in a pickle - a quaint old English saying, meaning to be in a situation that is decidedly unpleasant - and, as the article shared in full below says, "has only itself to blame". I am continuing my recent practice of sharing in full, articles I deem to be of significant importance. Purely... Continue Reading →
Australia – Prime Example of Government by Stupidity and Cowardice
"Australia is Learning the Hard Way the Price of its Adherence to US Foreign Policy" - NEO Another welcome article by James O'Neill for the New Eastern Outlook. Very precise. Very open. Very clearly stated. Very true. Australia is governed stupidly. Primarily due to the cowardice (or greed, but mostly I would say cowardice) of those... Continue Reading →
Aussies – Circling The Gurgler’s Rim
Australia continues to circle its own economic future dangerously around the rim of a certain death spiral, apparently willing to lose itself completely if the nation does not pull back from its current untenable position vis-à-vis having chosen the wrong side of the US instigated US-China struggle. Illustration: Tang Tengfei/GT Without a turn-around or at... Continue Reading →
When Will Australia Stop Its Anti-China Madness?
I love my country of Australia. It is my chosen country, which somehow has more meaning than being simply the place where I happened to be born. But Australia has changed over the years, especially since the start of the current century, and I believe is now heading in a direction which is at distinct... Continue Reading →
