Andrew Bolt's Blog,6/5/19; Yesterday Andrew Bolt put up a post. Here is what he didn't say; LNP and the economy 1st to 21st:






via Poll wrap: Newspoll and Ipsos have contrasting leaders' ratings trends; Abbott trails in Warringah

 The Sun-Herald reported that a Lonergan poll of Warringah for GetUp, conducted May 1 from a sample of 805, gave independent Zali Steggall a 56-44 lead over incumbent Tony Abbott. The only primary vote reported was Abbott’s at 38%, down from 51.6% in 2016.
 These aren't all Abbott haters Bolt

HOW SCARY ARE THE ABBOTT HATERS?

The campaign against Tony Abbott in Warringah has brought out people seemingly deranged by hate. They include some of our biggest activist groups. From my editorial on The Bolt Report: why the haters are the real problem, and why their candidate, Zali Steggall, is a strange global warming extremist. What, no solar panels?

To be in opposition to Abbott defines "hatred" according to Andrew Bolt. What is the opposite of hatred then, Tony Abbott ofcourse. So yes if you're against Tony Abbott, you must hate him as he's an exemplary person around and around Bolt goes forgetting the man's political past altogether.  There is no mention here that Abbott's been riding the on again off again climate denier carousel and is back a warmist supporting the Paris agreement when he was once was Trump insisting on getting out of it.
No mention transition which occurs over time and when asked at the turn of the last century what people wanted were faster horses and not cars. Does Bolt still burn coal in his lounge room in support of the fuel he loves so much? Has he invested in coal or technologies to make it cleaner? No, he hasn't, but he's laughing at warmists because they still fly and drive petrol driven cars. Just as those did way back when they thought the only problem was faster horses.
You know what hate is it's not booing Tony Abbott it's shutting the door in the face of a refugee. It's Tony Abbott telling his sister she's not good enough to raise her kids. It's calling the abused children of priests liars, and it's sending our airforce to the Middle East to indiscriminately bomb families and then say we thought they were the enemy. Even worse it's an Army that denies they even did it and government that has turned collateral damage into an "on the water matter" and hides their misdoings from the public. 
Abbott is not facing haters Bolt he faced them when he was dumped as PM he facing wrath not of outsiders in Warringah. He's facing the wrath of his peers the residents who will vote for him and you are abusing them for being vocal that ought to impress and help Abbott swingers. Calling them shits if they dare vote against him...Great PR move it's scary!!

Death toll rises in Gaza as Israeli PM orders 'massive strikes' against Hamas

Rockets and missiles from Gaza killed four civilians in Israel while Israeli strikes killed 19 Palestinians, more than half of them civilians, in surging cross-border fighting on Sunday, according to Gazan officials and the Israeli military.

 Let's get some perspective on Andrew Bolt's Paywall post of yesterday shall we? Something else was happening that Bolt wasn't referring to yesterday when he posted




'WE WILL CHOP OFF THEIR HEADS'. WELL-TRAINED CHILDREN CHANT

Children say the cutest things. Check the children at the Philadelphia Muslim Society: "We will chop off their heads, and we will liberate the sorrowful and exalted Al-Aqsa Mosque. We will lead the army of Allah fulfilling His promise, and we will subject them to eternal torture."
4hYesterday Bolt drew attention to children reciting words that seemed hateful about Israel. However when you actually consider that 66% the population of Gaza is under  25 and 45% under 14 it becomes no surprise that the words of Israeli far right and Rabbi's are out to kill children as if they were vermin. It's no surprise Israel kills more civilians than it does Hamas, and it's no surprise that Gaza is seen as the worlds biggest prison. If you consider half are women what are the odds you are going to kill civilians. Andrew Bolt intentionally tried to make out that children under 10 were a major enemy of the great nation of Israel that is one of the worlds leading weaponised countries that get billions in aid from the USA in the form of weapons and has the IDF one of the worlds foremost fighting forces.

Australia’s economy has deteriorated under the Coalition

Australia’s economy has deteriorated under the Coalition

 

In 2013, Australia’s economy was the best-performed in the world by a significant margin. It had been the best since 2009. This has been affirmed by many independent economists and world leaders. It now ranks 21st in the world on the IAREM, a multi-factorial measure of overall economic management.
Scott Morrison wrote in his Saturday email (and on the Liberal Party website):

‘The Labor Party has shown that they cannot manage money. If you can’t manage money, you can’t run the country.’
All the actual data shows that it is the Coalition, not Labor, which cannot manage the economy. The difference is not marginal. It is the difference between the best in the world and 21st.

I BLAME YOU FOR THIS TOXIC ELECTION

COLUMN I blame voters. They’re turning this election campaign into one of our most dishonest, irrational and frightening. They are turning this election toxic by rewarding conmen, hysterics and bullies. They are accepting what they should reject, and Labor and GetUp are getting away with murder.

1h Bolt

The Economy that's meant to be "booming" has slid from 1st in 2013 to 21st in 2019. Marriage Equality was voted for by Australians in a "referendum" is being ignored and has remained unaccepted. Remember the LNP promise "no cuts" to the ABC their budget was cut by $395 million the equivalent of what it was in 1984. The NBN is incomplete and has us now at 62nd in the world from 32nd in terms of speed. Should I go on about, what is toxic and what isn't? What it is toxic is a government that's been fighting itself since 2013 and Bolt now blames voters? The man lives in cloud cuckoo land. The voters are individuals and not dishonest. All one needs to do is look at the front pages of the Murdoch papers around Australia and the meaning of dishonesty and toxicity is self-evident. Bolt is looking at himself in a mirror when he's calling out "toxic".

 Andrew Bolt is an enabler and radicaliser of hate. The company he works for was banned in NZ for their continued video of a mass murderer in Christchurch. Sky News was pulled from the air. Bolt for years has been promoting hate and division in Australia so much, so we have seen a significant rise in Islamophobia. The Herald Sun printed some 3000 negative articles on Islam in 2017 alone, and Andrew Bolt was a significant contributor. Bolt helped run Yassmin Abdel-Magied out of the country while pleading for the cases of racists to be let in Milo just one. A policy to ban Andrew Bolt is minor compared with what ought to be done to recruiters and radicalizers of hate. False advertising is forbidden, and Bolt as a propagandist is an advertiser of hate and deserves to be banned.



SHORTEN'S SOCIALISM HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT

Chris Mitchell is right: "The media story of the campaign is... Labor is surfing into government with the biggest policy-shifting agenda since Gough Whitlam but with little of the scrutiny Whitlam, Bob Hawke and Kevin Rudd faced when they led parties that turfed out sitting Coalition governments."

Andrew Bolt dreams of retirement in his beloved Netherlands one of the most socialist countries in the EU. Australia is Capitalist by far in comparison. Andrew Bolt loves Amsterdam a city with twice the population of Melbourne as multicultural if not more but with a more significant community of non-Caucasians and non-Christians and a city that is more Socialist than anywhere in Australia. Shorten's dreams are far less left wing than the city Andrew Bolt dreams of retiring in. Who is the con merchant the PR man not to be trusted?
Abbott was riding high as if on cocaine riding the Chinese Free Trade Train. Bolt joined Turnbull to destroy that relationship. He even supports Trump who is about to sign a deal that will leave Australia out of the trade loop built by the ALP. The Murdoch press made every effort to diminish our trade relationship with China and China has obliged.
News Corp is allowed to do what it wants as a private corporation. It can choose to be as biased as it wishes as it's private. But then so is Rugby Australia why isn't the AFL and Rugby Australia allowed to operate under the same conditions as News Corp? Filou's is a contract issue, not a religious one. Filou has every right to believe what he wishes and follow the rules of his faith he also signed a commercial contract with Rugby Australia that limited what he can and can't do. The decision now is whether or not the two parties can agree it's certainly not Bolt's.
Bolt is a stickler for rules only when they support his views. How many times has he claimed the ABC has not obeyed its charter only to be laughed at when the results of all investigations prove him wrong. The Filou case isn't a case of free speech but a case of contract and prior agreement.
