  • Housing is Cooked: How they sold out Australia
    Feb 13 2025

    Aussies are being priced out of their own country while foreign investors and institutional landlords laugh all the way to the bank. The latest move? Tax breaks for BlackRock, Vanguard, and offshore billionaires to snap up housing stock, turning home ownership into a distant dream for young Australians.

    Meanwhile, the pollies in Canberra. Labor and Liberal continue to prioritise donors over democracy. Want to buy a house? Good luck competing against super funds and overseas investors who don’t even live here. Want affordable rent? Too bad, the system is rigged to keep you paying off someone else’s mortgage forever.

    David Pocock is asking the right question: is housing for wealth creation or strong communities? The answer, if you follow the money, is pretty clear. The real fix? It’s staring us in the face, but there’s no political will to make it happen.

  • Free speech and the great Egging Scam
    Feb 9 2025

    Allegra Spender scammed by egging hype, ABC and Antoinette Lattouf, Peter Lalor SEN, woke beer and Peter Dutton blows the man whistle. Watch the latest Scam of the Week as we break down the media circus, political blunders, and why journalism in Australia is under attack.

    Summary by Chat-GPT:

    This video takes a cheeky dig at media hype, politics, and the weaponising of "woke" culture in Australia. It kicks off with a so-called "terror attack" in Bondi, which turned out to be teenagers throwing eggs. Despite the overreaction, it led to Parliament ramping up hate speech laws.

    The video also pokes fun at a beer company backtracking on an environmental campaign, ABC’s legal dramas, and media narratives around Peter Dutton. It wraps up with a fundraiser update and a sarcastic “Scam of the Week” award for a politician pushing egging laws.

  • Trump's trade war
    Feb 5 2025

    Trump's inane trade war will hit US consumers - inflation, plus the world economy. Why is he doing it? Political bribes, sorry donations, data is out, and we check Rex Patrick's FOI jihad. Where will we dumping that American nuclear waste?

    Summary created by Chatgpt:

    Donald Trump has launched a trade war, imposing tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China, and Europe. These tariffs are effectively taxes that push up prices on food, fuel, and goods, hurting both businesses and consumers.

    Markets have reacted negatively, with rising inflation likely to impact Australia through higher costs and reduced demand from China—our biggest trading partner. The video warns that escalating tensions could even lead to military conflict, with Australia, as usual, backing the US. Additionally, it highlights concerns over Australia's role in nuclear waste disposal under the AUKUS deal. The message: trade wars benefit no one.

  • Israel's Other War : Foreign Influence and Hasbara
    Jan 24 2025

    It highlights perceived hypocrisy and double standards in global politics and calls out Australian media and politics for being influenced by external agendas. The speaker urges more focus on truth, peace, and fair representation in discussions about these issues.
