Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has praised World Economic Forum President Klaus Schwab on his recent win in the French general election.
Emmanuel Macron swept to victory on Saturday night, but it was Schwab who was the real victor according to Scomo.
“I’d like to congratulate Klaus on yet another win for his team of WEF leaders and continuing the total sham that is democracy and voting. It was important that the granny fucker got back into power for the sake of the WEF,” Morrison said.
“France is now long term proper fucked, but as we’ve seen the last two years the Great Reset is exactly what the country needs to get back on it’s feet.”
Morrison said that he wasn’t fazed if Albanese won the Australian election, as the implementation of telephone and digital voting will help swing the vote whichever way the WEF needs it on election night.

I’m pretty sure his family is cabal central too, but I think he has been flipped to white hat.

EU Dirty Trick Against Le Pen to Block Her Becoming President May Well Backfire
The French will see right through the latest dirty trick of the EU to smear Le Pen
https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2022/04/19/eu-dirty-trick-against-le-pen-to-block-her-becoming-president-may-well-backfire/
PS: Good to see Strategic Culture back up and running again.
I saw the news headlines yesterday about the sigh of relief that Macron won. No one has actually looked at the numbers.
2017: Le Pen got 30 something percent of the vote
2022: Le Pen gets 40 something percent of the vote.
I remember chatting to a French guy after the 2017 election and he said “they are patting themselves on the back that Macron won, but a significant number voted Le Pen and that number is rising. She will win the next election or one after that as no one is asking why people vote for her”.
That’s if demographics don’t catch up with them. Imo they’re going to be a civil war in between now and then.
Given that Policy, I can’t help but wonder how it is that every ABC reporter, news reader, and program anchor consistently refers to Marine Le Pen as “Far-right candidate Marine Le Pen”.
Since when are the concepts of impartiality and objectivity faithfully served when one sets out to ideologically brand (or stigmatize) candidates participating in a free democratic election?
And who in the ABC decides what is “Far Right”?
The ABC wouldn’t recognise impartiality if it jumped up and bit them on the arse.
It is an organisation that is compromised beyond repair, and no longer presents news but agendas.
see the catch 22, “within the community”.
who’s to say what are the community “strands” and more important who’s to contest this. Contesting would be like trying to fill up a bucket using a sieve.
Stunning backflip by McGowan in WA eliminating masks, vaccine passports, capacity restrictions heading into winter of all times to do it.
It’s like he’s not even pretending that the ‘science’ matters anymore just politics as what it’s always been about of course.
The subjects of EZFKWA have achieved a soft landing on COVID through welcoming and embracing restrictions on freedoms of movement and gathering, and largely unproven medical experiments.
I am pleased to announce that the requirement for a third jab, which we previously advised was necessary based on solid medical and scientific advice, is not required, as is masking indoors.
We have always listened to the rapidly changing and evolving health advice and acted accordingly to extend the restriction of freedoms on our subjects. We are now able to come out of this period of pandemic with some of the best health outcomes in the entire world.
Starting this Friday, our great state of WA will welcome full capacity for all sportsball venues, weddings, funerals and other social gatherings. We are also removing all restrictions on hospitality venues, so the 3% of antivaxers can enjoy a pint and a meal to relieve pressure on our severely understaffed food delivery service industry. We are working with our Federal counterparts to ensure that this critical skilled occupation is addressed as quickly as possible by removing G2G passes for all travellers into WA.
I would also like to thank all of the health staff state-wide for their hard work over last two years that masked under-investment in the healthcare sector in EZFKWA. This pandemic has been created to exceed all of our expectations, and EZFKWA subjects deserve full credit for the last two years.

https://larouchepub.com/pr/2022/20220425_russian_gas.html
Next month is shaping up to be a big one
This is interesting stuff.
who knows how the physical aspect of this works? Assuming Europe stops buying Russian gas altogether – Can Russia simply stop extracting the gas out of the ground?
or do they really have to keep pumping it, just like the oil producers did, even though the price of oil went negative, a couple of years ago?
https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/russia-halts-natural-gas-supplies-poland-european-energy-prices-spike-local-reports
In other news Poland will hit their 2025 emissions targets
methinks this is all short term posturing as alternatives are untenable for long terms and besides Pootin does not have any conditions that are not unreasonable and simple (only demand is currency for payment). Above all, every single restriction is self inflicted by Pole dancers and it will probably last until a “victory” of some self declared type is achieved.
Alternatively Poles will buy the gas from Krauts whom will badge engineer it to become a non-ruskie gas. Options are a plenty.
Yes, this certainly is a possibility. From what I read, this would be a similar structure to the Latvian blend of oil, where only 49.9% of the oil is of Russian origin, thereby making it fully acceptable under current sanctions to be used.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/04/23/latvian-blend-russia-bends-rules-keep-oil-flowing/
There are several problems with this, as I see it:
Note that the first two canaries in the gas shaft are Poland and Bulgaria. Poland has been staging reinforcements for Ukraine from US/EU, as well as sending its old Soviet period armaments into Ukraine. Ditto Bulgaria.
when needed for “noble” purposes, the creativity which is always punishable in the 2nd and all lower class EU member states becomes allowed for the premium members.
Krauts could modify 50.1% of ruskie gas making it palatable as non-ruski and then sell it to Poles. Become merchants. Any creative mean to mask the gas as non-ruski will be acceptable subject to limitations purely by limitation of imagination.
if PL defaults, they’ll just change traffic signs front Gdansk to Danzig and notify the world of the “administrative” change
I heard through the grapevine that Danzig signs are still usable after 80 years of storage…
There are also reports that Russia notified Bulgaria that it will not receive any more gaZ starting 27 April, unless paid in rubleZ

Yes, David completely misreads the room
the long suffering MB faithful have been waiting a decade for the housing Armageddon
and now he wants to take it from them (again)
Armageddon! (you do need to click the link! earphones are helpful though)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTrOb8zyrZk&t=26s
Good. But he doesn’t give a toss about them. If any of them are saving a house deposit and paying MB membership, they might as well be paying someone to mug them.
🤦♀️🤦
lols… just like each year for the last 5 years!!!
it’s pretty sad, isn’t it?
after being so wrong on the way down, MB has now decided to be wrong on the way up?!
This is the interesting thing to me – he could never accept his position was contradictory
-house prices down
-interest rates down
you can’t have both , it’s one or the other
I tried to tell him until I was blue in the face
amazing that someone could live in complete denial of reality for 10 years
typical of academic Wonks too stuck in their models to realise that they don’t represent how the world works.
here is how the world works:
if interest rates are 6%, maybe that loans is $500,000, so they buy a house for $600,000.
if interest rates are 2%, maybe that loan is $800,000 – so they buy a house for $900,000.
simples.
they don’t sit there thinking about whether houses are expensive or whatever. they spend what they can spend – $900/week.
Houses cost what they cost; they buy what they can buy.
MB doesn’t understand the simplest concepts and will call you names and ban you when you disagree with them.
For example; totes says water is absolutely not an obstacle for mass immigration. Where the fuck have these idiots been to misunderstand how it’ll unfold? More expensive water, plenty of water for the elites. Then add the gigalitres presently wasted by the plebs.
Then there’s the enormous benefit of religion to society, these woke clowns can’t understand. They ridicule Christianity and I fucking hate them for it (even though I’m not religious)
I have zero respect for MB, smithy, or gunnaidiot. Pack of naive fools, that can’t justify their positions, yet assume the higher ground and superior intellect.
Someone keeps saying I was mirroring Palmers slogans, and that’s why I was banned, despite having said the same thing for over 10 years.
Fuck MB, and the fools still believing their BS.
Yes, yes and yes.
why does it bother you?
the world is full of tools that can attract the counter-mainstream mobs and you could expose naked both Llewdo and Bleato as idiots, another one will be there in a jiffy.
If someone “cannot understand” something it is always your fault because:
From previous discolure, we know that 1 is false, hence the 2.
Coming,
Yes, you absolutely can! It is a rare event, but it did happen before, and the driver is ability of people to borrow. This would affect markets that experienced bubbles more.
Example: US rates fell from 2007 – 2010 from ~5.25% to ~0.1%
https://www.macrotrends.net/2015/fed-funds-rate-historical-chart
US home mortgage rates fell for the same period from ~6.25% to ~5%
https://www.macrotrends.net/2604/30-year-fixed-mortgage-rate-chart
US median home values (CPI adjusted) fell ~20% for the same time period. Some areas (Florida, Las Vegas) had declines of 85%.
https://dqydj.com/historical-home-prices/
So it is rare, but it happens.
The US has 30 year mortgages, not most of the population on variable and the rest up to 5 years maximum
now do australia
Flyover states on fixed, yes, hence smaller loss on the median house price. Bubble states on NINJA/variables, hence larger loss.
All I wanted to illustrate that there are times when both rates and house prices go down, but these are as rare as hen’s teeth. You know, exceptions to the rule and all that.
I didn’t say I agreed with MB 🙂
If inflation adjusted rates are still low or negative, housing can move up fairly quickly despite rising rates. That’s why I laugh at boomers complaining about their interest rates in the 70s/80s.
That’s what I’ve always felt too. A blog that initially seemed be based on reducing house prices somehow became captured by a bizarre MPLOL zeitgeist and a wet dream of negative rates never made any sense to me at all.
But the inconsistencies continued – it was interesting that in 2019 DLS championed a vote for the Liberal Party despite the opposition having policies on removing Negative Gearing. Visas for Indian grannies was the thing that supposedly influenced that view, but it wasn’t like the government didn’t have similar policies.
Together with his recent rantings about RBA hikes, one might wonder if he is actually heavily mortgaged and if any property bears still frequenting that site have been conned.
yeh, it’s been real fifth-column stuff from MB in relation to the housing bears, etc.
something that I’ve been turning over in my mind is that the MBblokes are actually fundamentally mainstream. Like the mainstream, they have always lusted after inflation^. (and we all know that they are terribly afraid of deflation 🐓 )
Their view on house prices were, perhaps, premised on the belief that high house prices were “holding back” the much needed inflation. A purely instrumental view; not an end in itself.
If they now see that inflation can gallop even when house prices are high, then they’ve got no beef with high house prices.
but it hasn’t been working that way for decades, as far as I can tell – rather it has been doing the precise opposite.
I don’t understand why anyone would fight off a rate hike when inflation is pushing +5% and wages half that. If there is a global recession brewing they can cut rates when it hits. We’ll be worse off if these maniacs keep cranking a bubble right into a recession and the cash rate is sitting at 0.1%. Bonkers!
Did anyone notice the sentence:
A global recession is on the way and it will automatically deflate prices, probably sending them deeply negative in 2023 in a rerun of what happened in the post-Spanish Fly great deflation of 1920/21. Equity markets are beginning to price this, and it is coming faster than anybody realises.
Was this just a typo, or a Freudian slip?
I wonder what sort of deflation would have occurred post-Spanish Fly?
Also raised an eyebrow at that comment.
Y is next to U on the keyboard so it could be a typo.
Then again, DLS sometimes comes across as being drug affected on videos, so it may be a clever nod to him using aphrodisiacs.
Ok… so what is “Spanish fly”?
Oh, Peachy…….such admirable innocence 🙂

Minister says China timed Solomon Islands security deal to damage Coalition’s election chances
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-04-27/minister-says-china-timed-solomons-deal-to-damage-coalition/101018476
So they are trying to pick up a sympathy vote by turning one of the most spectacular foreign relations cock-ups in decades into a sinister plot to interfere with our election process and give the ALP a leg-up.
Honestly…..you couldn’t make this stuff up…….oh, hang on, they just did.
The Minister also said that China-loving Labor should be held responsible for recent floods, as it is China that is predominantly responsible for climate change.
In other news, Minister praises various Coalition-affiliated persons accused of sexual misconduct of various degree for committing the offenses and leaking those to the media far enough from the election as to not affect the outcome of the election.
