A Federal Opposition With Its Eyes Elsewhere

10 January 2026 Roswell 5

One could be forgiven for thinking the federal opposition has been elected to represent another country. Not officially, of course. There has been no announcement, no constitutional amendment, no quiet referendum slipped through while we […]

A Week of Peak Absurdity

The Spider in the Room

The Art of the Deflect

15 November 2025 Roswell 3
