Helen Haines' words as people rushed to help her after the vile attack on her perhaps beautifully sums up our country. Most Australians (of all politics) are decent and caring, even on the very worst days.
"Thank you, you lovely people,” she said, “I appreciate your help.” 🇦🇺

60% of the French say their country is undergoing replacement by non-European populations.
66% of the French view this negatively, and a refreshingly small 9% view it as favorable.

The fact that France already has social healthcare, paid family leave, 35 hour work weeks, and spends more than 50% of GDP on welfare puts these riots in such a hilarious context
WTF do they even want

The sister of Breaking Bad star RJ Mitte gives a heartbreaking tribute to her older brother, says he acted like a father to her.
"RJ Mitte was my older brother, but I not only just lost a brother, I lost my father."
"My mom was a single mother, and when I was 2 weeks old, she was in an accident that paralyzed her from the waist down for the first few years of my life. And my brother immediately took on the father role."
"I don't have many words that I can put together. But all I can say is that every part of me is RJ."
Incredibly sad. Pray for her.

In Australia you are 23 times more likely to be a millionaire than be homeless
everyone thinks for some reason that they are closer to becoming a millionaire than becoming homeless.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Recent polling shows a majority of US voters believe they are more likely to become homeless than a millionaire. US data show roughly 23.6 million millionaires versus ~746,000 experiencing homelessness on a given night.

The reduction in homicide experienced by El Salvador is the most extreme fall ever recorded.
My latest article is about El Salvador.
The country has become safe--I've rigorously documented that and shown that every objection falls flat--but will that lead to growth?
Will El Salvador become rich?

Floyd's death was legitimately tragic in a classic American sense. He was in many ways a victim of corrupt policies that intersected to end his life.
he had gotten clean, was working out again and working, when Covid lockdowns put him out of a job. This photo is from his job as a nightclub doorman. he was well liked and said to be a good worker.
he loses his job, gets back on Fent, which is only in the country due to open borders anyway, somehow gets a fake $20, and the full force of the cops come out over something the Fed does as PUBLIC POLICY.
the Federal Reserve debases and manipulates currency as policy. George was just trying to buy a snack with a fake $20, which is only a crime because the Fed needs to send a message to anybody else moving in on printing money. Nobody arrested Yellen for doing worse by a few trillion.
guy was old stock. family has probably been here for 400 years. and he's dead because of open border policies that allowed a virus to freely come into the USA, drugs to freely flow into the country, and policies that led to him losing his job and ultimately his life.
RIP George. See you at the corner store on the other side.
Post Script - the pregnant woman he robbed... was an illegal from South America lmao

Suspected scrap metal thieves have stolen bronze plaques bearing the names of 88 fallen soldiers from a 102-year-old war memorial in Adelaide, leaving locals devastated.
"They will make a dollar with your beautiful bronze plaque"

Andrew Hastie is 1000% right here.
Big business love international students on temporary visas because they can exploit them and 50% earn less than half minimum wage of $15 an hour.
The journo rightly points out this SHOULD be a left wing policy.
Then Albo cheers at the legal minimum wage increasing 4% but that means fuck all when there’s over a million on temporary visas working for $14 an hour cash.
We have a massive shadow economy we can’t question without being called racist

There is a lot amount of support for new mums in Australia, at least in Sydney anyway. Nurses do home visits in the first two weeks, and there are community run mum groups all over the place.

The ABS inadvertently making some of the pro high migration narratives look silly.
