The West wakes up? This story has been OBE'd (overtaken by events).

BRICS nations are developing a new common payment system and a new trade currency "UNIT".

BTW Indonesia joined BRICS in Jan 2025.

Petition: say no to Herzog visiting Australia NOTE: Hundreds of Jewish Australians have signed this open letter to be published in The Age and SMH. Although the […]

I did a GoogleAI search which suggested that 60,000 Australians had signed a petition opposing the visit.

Also, a letter specifically for Jewish people had attracted support from 500 notable people such as Ben Elton & Miriam Margolyes.

I’m at a loss why half the Jews in Australia are labelled fanatics for opposing genocide and why the government only speaks to the 50% who support the ongoing slaughter.

A graphic stating that if Google is correct there is in the region of 116,000 Jewish people living in Australia.
More than half (over 60,000) have signed a petition opposing Hertzog’s visit.
I’m at a loss to understand why the Australian government insists on going ahead with this invitation (via Jewish Council of Australia!

⬆️There's something sick inside the ALP

We see state premiers trying to dictate which writers can speak, and which get de-platformed.

It is undemocratic. Authoritarian.

But at the same time, the rest of the Labor Party is staying silent while this happens. This is democracy being destroyed

No wonder they were refusing to release them. Someone at the DOJ’s let these through. Some have been deleted but had already been screenshot.

Surely something has to be done now?

Major Epstein Files Update: Bombshell Documents Released, I Reviewed Thousands Good afternoon, everyone.

Major update: I have reviewed thousands of Epstein files released today.

From serious allegations against President Trump to communications between Elon Musk and Epstein about visiting Epstein’s island.

I also caught Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in a major lie.

NZ has refused to join Trump's 'Board of Peace'. What about the rest of the world? New Zealand has declined Donald Trump's invitation to join his Board of Peace and is calling for "clarity" over the proposal. Here's where other countries stand.

Even the NZ Tories have the courage to say no to Trump.

Does the ALP?

When an Australian government isn't doing enough for its citizens, it doesn't grow the left, it grows the right and the right adjacent. The great misunderstanding in Australian politics is confusing why people do that, and how what they want is different to the ideology attached to where they went.

Give it up David Speers - you’re no match for Jim Chalmers.

Vacuous commentary and irrelevant talking points.
