Instapundit last week:
Sending love letters to Charles Manson is really weird. Just putting this thought out there girls.
Why is Australia leading the charge?
Because most of our first waves of inbound will be from China, India, Africa and Lebanon?
..
Yes, well that’s the problem. Which is why we have to concentrate on blokes standards.
As men, can’t possibly know what goes through the brain of a critter who has been trained for years in childhood to understand that being cute gets you stuff and approval rather than a smack in the head.
“Two months ago Mr O’Keefe was charged with slapping, kicking and spitting on his doctor girlfriend in a row over an ice pipe she claimed he was carrying at a party.”
He was subject to a DVO, which he didn’t even attempt to have set aside.
He has now (alleged) breached that DVO.
If true, Mr O’Keefe is in a lot of trouble, and will find it very hard to avoid either rehab or a community protection order (home detention).
Because of COVID, I’d punt on the home detention.
If he was some bloke from Mount Druitt without two cents to rub together, he’d be detained already.
..
Which will be different from everyone else in Victoria currently exactly how?
You’re all guilty of something.
So true Roger.

I’m guilty of Unkind Thoughts. If I finally escape house arrest it might escalate to Dirty Looks.
After that…things might get really tense.

And if you think I’m joking you don’t know what QLD police used to get up to and what politicians winked at in the Joh years.
But I think Dan & Vikpol have taken it to a new level.
The question is…will Victorians reward him for it at the next election?
If so, they really do deserve him.
I’m guilty of Unkind Thoughts.

Gronk attack!!
This is an example of what I mean when I say the government isnt content to let people dissapear on the margins anymore.
Speculating here , but that looks to me a bit like a gentleman of the street (the bag of assorted belongings on the path) who has been stopped and given an order/fine or fuckaround by the lady constables.
Most of these people have active drug and/or mental problems but our “caring’ society would rather they be ‘invisible’ on the margins than treated and rehabbed.
Come the pandemic and the government wont treat & rehab them, but it also wont let them be invisible anymore and seeks to control people whos whole lives are just chaos.
Hoboman is lucky the policettes partner chose to run away and not tazer/shoot him. But at some stage that is going to happen because you cant push on the metally ill without serious consequences for everyone involved.
30 years ago a person could up stumps, drop out of society and effectively disappear into the countryside or margins of the city.
Our wise idiots in government dont like this as people not being controlled scares them.

Interesting new restrictions on ivermectin.”
*********
Their three reasons for banning most Australian doctors from prescribing it for covid are:
(a) creating shortages for other uses – well, at least that’s explicable;
(b) a bunch of transnational stooges have ranted against it – why should a qualified Australian doctor be prevented from treating a specific patient according to the patient’s specific need just because some trough-snouting bugpeople are trying to maintain big pharma’s monopoly?
(c ) and this purler…
“Secondly, the doses of ivermectin that are being advocated for use in unreliable social media posts and other sources for COVID-19 are significantly higher than those approved and found safe for scabies or parasite treatment. These higher doses can be associated with serious adverse effects, including severe nausea, vomiting, dizziness, neurological effects such as dizziness, seizures and coma.”
But why ban doctors prescribing it? If they’re telling us that Australian health professionals aren’t competent to use a drug that’s been widely used for decades because they’ll gullibly fall for internet memes, then why are we supposed to trust health professionals telling us to take the mRNA vaccines?
I knew it was a political hit job. It failed spectacularly for Labor here in NSW with McKay losing her leadership job……plus I thought the left celebrated “sex work”…I description I loathe because it demeans sex and work.
“Dumped Nationals MP Michael Johnsen reveals all on rape allegations
Dumped Nationals MP Michael Johnsen has revealed clandestine details about his trysts with a sex worker — in a bush, under a bridge and at her house — but has vowed he will “never” pay for intimacy again after being accused of rape.
Dumped Nationals MP Michael Johnsen has revealed clandestine details about his trysts with a sex worker in a bush, under a bridge and at her house but has vowed he will “never” pay for intimacy again after his detractors accused him of rape in parliament.
In an exclusive interview with The Daily Telegraph, the former Upper Hunter MP revealed he was still eyeing a return to politics and has found solace with new love Karla who has supported him in the wake of claims made in parliament that he raped the thirty-something sex worker.
Speaking candidly about the “anguish” he suffered after rival Labor MP Trish Doyle used Parliamentary privilege to state he raped a prostitute and was embroiled in a lewd Question Time sexting scandal, he said: “I made mistakes, I’m an imperfect human, I was messy, my divorce had a huge impact on me.”
“I saw a sex worker and, yes, it was not my first dalliance — but I’ve never seen one while in a committed relationship.
“It was titillating and exciting — I was finding myself again after thirty years of marriage. I married at the age of 21 and had never played the field.
“I’m a red blooded male, sorry if I get turned on. But rape? It just didn’t happen.
“It’s caused deep anguish, I lost control of myself, my self esteem and emotions.
“It was stitched up over the Upper Hunter seat. But I was stupid to be texting the sex worker in parliament.”
Mr Johnsen said he had no hard feelings towards the woman, or “the oldest profession in the world,” but believes she took umbrage over a tweet he wrote asking how many Black Lives Matter protesters also demonstrated in favour of full term abortions.
The woman complained to police and her local MP Trish Doyle who 18 months later in March, under parliamentary privilege, stated “a sitting MP” raped a woman at a lookout in the Blue Mountains in September 2019.
Details emerged that he sent her lewd text messages. One dated September 24 said, “Not fair, I‘m sitting in the chamber with a hard on now”. Another read “I’m in QT and f*** I’m horny and want you so bad — need you, I want you and I can’t wait to f*** you over and over again xxx.”
She claimed he sent an obscene video of him masturbating while parliament was sitting.
Mr Johnsen identified himself after Ms Doyle’s speech after his name was leaked to the media.
He was booted out of the National Party and resigned from state parliament triggering a by-election in May in which the Nationals retained the Upper Hunter turning the seat into one of the most marginal in the state at 0.5 per cent.
“I’m Catholic and I was adopted as a child, my mum never aborted me, and gave me the chance to be here today,” he said, defending his tweet.
“I met the sex worker through Locanto personal ads, for three times in three weeks — the first at the Yellow Rock lockout in the Blue Mountains — when she claimed I raped her — yet she agreed a second encounter, at her home in the Blue Mountains, and the third, under a bridge,” he said.
“She continued to send me topless photos, it was still flirtatious until the end.
“I don’t hate sex workers, they provide a service, it’s the world’s oldest profession, but would I go back? Never. I have Karla now — our brains connect as well as everything else.”
The sex worker claimed Mr Johnsen raped her at the look out and sent her lewd texts during Parliamentary Question Time and offered $1000 to have sex in parliament.
“That text doesn’t exist,” he said, adding, “Nor does the video in which she claims I was standing in a toilet holding a tablet masturbating while filming myself — unless you’ve got three hands that’s impossible.”
Police, with the DPP ruled last month there was “insufficient admissible evidence” to proceed with charges.
Mr Johnsen says he suffers anxiety from the ordeal but a relationship with education sector worker Karla, whom he had dated for several weeks when the scandal broke, has given him a fresh start.
He has written to Speaker of the NSW Legislative Assembly, Jonathan O’Dea, asking the lower house to refer Ms Doyle’s actions, and then-Opposition leader Jodi McKay’s, who he said “conspired”, to the privileges and ethics committee. He wants Ms Doyle sacked.
Karla, whose home he shares in the Upper Hunter country, said she was “surprised” he had been at Yellow Rock but adds: “I love Michael, call it women’s intuition, he could never rape.”

“The longer term is the most important position because that underpins a permanent management plan for climate change,” Bragg said.
“Environmental risk is like any other economic risk, it needs to be managed, which is why I have always been attracted to the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) framework, which is a way of making these risks measurable and folding them into an economic paradigm.

Lib’s have their swamp creature in Layzell who will rubber stamp everything Gladys proposes. Johnsen had a habit of voting with his conscience at times.

If you knew anything about that town you’d realise it is a joke.
You were the one who told me to “stay in my own lane” when I stated that those not vaccinated would be subject to restrictions. You refuted the idea outright. Three days later it was all over the news. So spare me the cheap insults because you couldn’t see the fucking obvious.

And as for texting the whore whilst he was sitting in parliament….what an adolescent. Anyway, he’s clearly met a good strong women now and he should steer clear of grubby whores.
It would appear he’s accepted advice to double down on the agenda now becuase the mid-terms are going to be very ugly.

Is it our fault for not getting more involved at grass roots levels?
Where to you think the enemy identifies & destroys any real threats?
And now here we are, separated, confined, watched, spied on & having our lives & livelihoods destroyed, assaulted, arrested, charged, convicted & gaoled for daring to protest govt overreach, but somehow we’re also supposed to believe that the Govts doing it to us will allow us to voted them out?

This is my point though with Clive. Whilst LDP and Hansen’s party are prob mostly funded by the members, Craig bragged that they have a massive war chest. If it is Clive’s money – then the Party will ultimately be hostage to his whims (and not the members / voters).

Exactly.
Look I understand why Craig Kelly has gone with Palmer…. it’s the dosh! Kelly knows that the Liberals will throw money at Hughes and GetUp will also throw lots of money at the seat.
But nothing is free with Palmer…there are always strings attached.
Saying that, there is a risk that LDP, UAP, Hansen, Fishers etc and any independents will split the votes and the Uniparty will scrape in.
The smaller parties MUST co-ordinate between each other [it’s not collusion in politics – it’s exchanging preferences :)] and more importantly, education their supporters that they – if they want change – must preference the Hansen’s, Clives, Leyonhjelms ABOVE the uniparty … no matter how distasteful that may be.
This is critical as when knocked out the preferences remain live and not snagged by the Uniparty.
Students taught to check their privilege and ‘deconstruct’ the Australian flag
Federal Education Minister Alan Tudge says students should be taught to defend symbols of their country, not tear them down, after controversial new lessons about the flag.
By James Morrow in The Daily Telegraph
State and federal education ministers have slammed divisive third-party learning plans promoted by the NSW Department of Education in the name of anti-racism, saying students should be taught to “defend our key institutions and symbols, rather than trying to destroy them”.
The learning plans were developed by third parties and linked to from the department’s website, though some of the links vanished last week as part of what the department called a website upgrade.
Among other things, the lessons called on students to “deconstruct” symbols of Australia including the flag, Australia Day and the national anthem.
In the flag exercise, developed by a group called “Cool Australia” and using a documentary about footballer Adam Goodes as a jumping off point, students are asked to “examine” the Australian flag and analyse it to see “who is included” and “who is excluded or not visible”.
The worksheet also asks students to summarise criticisms and defences of Australia Day as part of a project of “deconstructing symbols of Australia”, and points to a number of resources, almost all of them in favour of changing the date.
These include a Buzzfeed video titled Aboriginal people respond to Australia Day, links to ABC articles urging that the national day be changed, and an article on the website of The Ethics Centre that states “the date will change” as a matter of fact, adding, “the only reasons … for opposition to changing the date is white privilege, or perhaps even racism”.
An accompanying teachers’ guide suggests that to be marked correct, students should say that it “Erases Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander sovereignty and custodianship of land”, and “Celebrates colonisation and erases the colonisers’ violent history towards Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples”.
While there are no firm figures as to how many schools use the resource, the teachers’ website Education Matters claims “hundreds” of schools use the Goodes documentary in their classrooms.
Federal Education Minister Alan Tudge said the curriculum should “focus on how to defend our key institutions and symbols, rather than trying to destroy them”.
“Our flag represents the greatest country on Earth – one which 100,000 have died defending. It ought to be respected, not torn down,” he said.
NSW Education Minister Sarah Mitchell agreed, saying students “do not need incendiary external resources pushed into the classroom from third parties”.
Bella d’Abrera, director of the Foundations of Western Civilisation Program at the Institute of Public Affairs, was similarly scathing.
“The state government has no place actively promoting radical race theory to Australian children, who will grow up believing that Australia is irredeemably racist,” she said.
I haven’t worked out yet whether Fitzy’s noteworthy Sir Robin performance today is because PHON will win Hunter, or due to the ALP tofu-mafia monstering him. Election in six months, which is the magic time period for such announcements.

Excellent.
It’s got a big star and some smaller ones. The big star is called the Sun, and it defines climate on Earth. It caused most of the warming last century, not CO2. The smaller ones can be used to work out where you need to go: just extrapolate them to the line bisecting the Centaurs and you know where south is.
The lines in the flag give our heritage. The thing in the upper left corner is the combination of the English flag, the Scots flag and the Irish saltire. Given that many if not most Aussies are derived from Poms, Scots and Paddies that is excellent. I comprise the full set!
Sadly what they mean by deconstructing the Australian flag isn’t likely to be what I regard as deconstructing it.
Or this, perhaps:
Not woke enough I suppose.
Sovereignty? What sovereignty?
Yes, I know it is the Federation Star and the points correspond to the states. But I’m emulating the teachers’ unions in their silly this means this stuff. It’s a reasonable rationalization after all, if you are an impressionable kid.

But it’s all very well the NSW Education Minister saying it’s wrong. Why isn’t action being taken? Fire a few of the people who allowed this in the door in the first place.

We find it laughably stupid someone burning an Australian flag, Rones. Most of us would laugh at such a ridiculous act that was obviously copied from the US. Most regular people don’t take it seriously.
Probably no real uproar for the simple reason that most people find the idea of an aboriginal flag to be a complete joke.
Enough of your low IQ outrageous outrage, you dullard.
Hmmm.
How can you have regular close contact with aboriginal people & arrive at that conclusion?
How many aboriginal people would you speak with each day?

If they go apeshit over the aboriginal flag being burnt then that shows just how fragile they are about their symbol. It says more about them, Rones, you moron .

You know, all 367 of them (or however many it was).
One seriously has to wonder about a “Catholic group” when not a single member is named.
Who are they? I’d be guessing there’s about two of them – if that.
But their ABC runs with the story.

Let me also add the following, which will highlight why I never had much time for your comments (leaving aside the dishonesty and all the other crap, such as pubbling, outbacking and Mick Dundeeing).
Let me continue.
Your pal made an obviously stupid comment about flags. You decided to intervene like you often do when I’m beating the Rones around the ears for being the classic underachiever at everything.
To Summarize:
1. The Rones made a silly about the Aboriginal flag inferring that lots of people would be angered if someone burned their (aboriginal) flag.
2. I responded that if they did go nuts about their flag being burnt they are clearly demonstrating fragility whereas as most other Australians are singularly robust.
You responded all this is in your typical stupid, irrelevant style. Driller, explain to the readership, how the hell does the lived experience even enter in this discussion, you nimrod?
Go!
Rones..
Come on, you know you want to say it.
It’s the boiling water shtick. Go on. One more time for the memories. 🙂

Yes, which is why I put the quote marks around it. Virtue that’s not really.
Thinking they have it because they wear a mask when in the open air.
Or wear one when having a meal and drinks at the club, continually dropping and raising the stupid thing.
Or dobbing in neighbours for a perceived breech of visitation numbers.
Or telling everyone to “just get vaccinated “ via Facebook.
Self bestowed virtue, as unearned as a vultures meal.
We have already seen it all and more in our little town.
Hmmm, the bolding didn’t work.
*Sigh* Time for bed.
Good question.
It has to be what is now termed a ‘mental health episode’ of some sort. The fact we haven’t been told what ails him means that he has fucked up somehow.
I agree, AFL 360 is much better with the former players rotating through. Be even better if they got rid of Whateley as well.

‘Unaware that he was on a hot mic and being broadcast live on a TV station, Israeli health minister Nitzan Horowitz admitted that vaccine passports were primarily about coercing skeptical people to get the vaccine.
“Imposing “green pass” rules on certain venues is needed only to pressure members of the public to get vaccinated, and not for medical reasons, Israeli Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz said on Sunday, ahead of the weekly Cabinet meeting,” reports Jewish News Syndicate.’”

reminds me of: Alleged right-wing extremist Mitchell Priest arrested at country NSW home with Nazi flag on wall
A man who police say holds extreme right-wing views has been arrested in country NSW over allegedly possessing instructions to 3D-print a gun.
Nothing about what actual crime was committed, except wrongthink.
Perhaps because I said “four” and was reflecting on thumbs and how useful they are.
Definitely Warren Brown this morning, Tom.
My reaction to Warren’s was to say “oh’ no!” Then laugh a lot. I wonder what Gladys response will be?
Thanks Tom!
Meanwhile, in other news some flags are more equal than others
It is no secret that ‘vaccine passports’ are intended to pressures refusniks.
President Macron in France was very frank about that.
A Herald Sun headline:
Are these people not listening, do they have their fingers in their ears, are they slow learners, or is it just part of that pantomime for the public that Solzhenitsyn described?
The.vaccine.doesn’t.stop.the.transmission.of.the.coronavirus.
P.S. It would appear that lockdowns don’t either.
It isn’t just that it’s not “woke” enough, Calli.
It’s that our flag actually stands for something – our country, our heritage, our place, our hopes – rather than for nothing.
The woke hate and automatically desire to destroy anything that others actually value.

Facebook Documents Reveal a Secret Elite That Is Exempt From Its Rules
In private, the company has built a system that has exempted high-profile users from some or all of its rules, according to company documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. At times, the documents show, the system has protected public figures whose posts contain harassment or incitement to violence, violations that would typically lead to sanctions for regular users.

Churches can’t stop patients’ deaths
Faith-based hospitals will not be able to deny entry to outside doctors to help terminally ill patients die after the Queensland government rejected pleas by the churches.
Firstly, will this mean that religious institutions will shut down faith-based hospitals? If so, I don’t blame them.
Secondly, what is the LNP in QLD saying and doing about this travesty or is it just the usual silence and acquiescence from them because they’re….as always….to shit scared and spineless to actually speak up about something?
Thirdly…..memo to the spineless, craven federal Liberals…where’s that federal religious freedom bill?
Footage on the noos this morning.
A couple of ladeeee policey girls (LPGs) from NSW encounter Mr X on the street. The LPGs will never make the Australian chick basketball team, but that’s all right because Mr X also appears to be a midget.
Mr X is delivering some knees to the midsection of LPG 1, MMA-style (without the usual effect), while LPG 2 stands back and watches from ten or twelve feet away. Presumably at this point, LPG 2 is resorting to screeching as a defensive mechanism as no equipment is being used against Mr X, let alone any lefts or rights.
Mr X then runs away, and the viewer is then informed that he is pinched around the corner and down a bit. I will make the assumption that bloke cops over 5 foot 3 completed this task. Mr X then apparently plays up like a secondhand lawn mower at the station and is binned.
Someone from the brass then does a presser, where he intones ‘no police officer expects this when they go to work’.
Well if they don’t, they fucking should because like it or not that’s part of the job. If you are not prepared to a) wear the occasional decent smack in the chops while removing a piece of shit from normal people, and b) convincingly win that particular melee, then you can go and find another line of work where others won’t have to continually do your job for you.
Two scenarios – one, Mr X is a proper crook and the LPGs wanted to arrest a violent piece of shit, which is their job and they should expect to be belted while doing it.
Two, Mr X was not wearing a mask or something and was double-covid-Karened by the LPGs, in which case they should also expect to be belted while doing it.
Every now and again I have a look at Dash Cat…..and I always regret it. I haven’t posted there for weeks and won’t ever post there again. The Jew hatred is sickening. It should now be renamed Bird Shat.
Cassie,
DashCat’s a useful vehicle for bear poking with sticks and subsequent comedy value, but that’s about it.
I think AdamD said he was in quarantine jail with a brood of kidlets, which obviously isn’t helping.
And why not. They get away with it every time.
Dorsey even had the gall to impersonate Osama Bin Laden while while doing so.
“DashCat’s a useful vehicle for bear poking with sticks and subsequent comedy value, but that’s about it.”
Yep…I admire anyone who has the stomach to be on there for any longer than a few minutes. I now know why Sinc was so ruthless in dealing with the Jew hating Bird. He’s grotesque.
“LNP leader David Crisafulli is yet to declare his position”

And now MARKA has moved his LAME PIX to the Furniture Warehouse more will, likely, be dropping off!…
If faith-based hospitals allow outsiders onto their premises, with the sole intent to murder their patients in their beds, then they are no longer “faith-based” hospitals.
LNP leader David Crisafulli is yet to declare his position, but his deputy and legal affairs spokesman, David Janetzki, is set to move amendments to the bill, granting institutions the capacity to conscientiously object.
That would be the first slightly useful thing that useless oxygen thief and waste of space Janetzki has done.
He’s on a nice little earner, all without having to raise his head above the parapet.

I believe that Covid won’t kill or harm me, and that vaccines won’t stop the largely harmless ‘rona nor the tyrannical behaviour of governments. That being said, I’ve just had my first vaccination. Here’s why.
I am currently working in France. Here I am a second class citizen because they have vaccine passports. I have just the workplace, chemist and supermarket available to me. I was supposed to be flying home to Perth this week, however due to the pathetic Premiers and the gormless Prime Minister who have halved flights into Australia, my flight has been delayed three months.
My mate, also from Perth, has had his flight delayed a few days and is being sent to quarantine in Adelaide. Who knows what McClown will do regarding the border before he flies back home. The dickhead has previously turned Adelaide flights back from Perth airport after someone catches a cold in South Australia while the plane was in flight.
My wife who is from Sydney, will spend her second Christmas away from me, because last year when I was also working in France (a planned trip), the government wouldn’t let her out of
East GermanyAustralia with me. McClown also wouldn’t let her go to Sydney to visit her son or siblings. Same again this year.Despite the mixed messages coming from various politicians around Australia, vaccine passports are coming. The process has already started. If you want to travel in future, you will need one.
I have faced the fact that we anti-vaccers have lost and have joined the ranks of the weak and gullible.
“If faith-based hospitals allow outsiders onto their premises, with the sole intent to murder their patients in their beds, then they are no longer “faith-based” hospitals.”
Perfectly said.
But just watch the LNP fold and go along with this. This relates to my thread that I uploaded about the hollow men and women in the federal and state Liberal and National parties….they just end up acquiescing with everything Labor and the Greens put forward. Once upon a time there would have been big demonstrations against this…..state sanctioned murder. This is Nazism.

Great comment Jupes….and I understand completely why you’ve had the jab.
Someone from the brass then does a presser, where he intones ‘no police officer expects this when they go to work’.
FACT CHECK : TRUE .. it is the right of the plod to administer violence ……. unhindered especially when NOT wearing a mask is involved ……..
I can’t believe my eyes.
Iron Ore $US124/t.
Met Coal $US352/t.
This has never happened before.
Jupes, you have tried. You have not given “informed consent”. You have been bullied and coerced by denying your right as a free man to enter your own country and see your family. Political chicanery dressed in a lab coat.
They held a gun to your head and a needle to your arm.
Come home, spend Christmas with your family, and never ever forget what they did to you.
Poor ol’ Mavis. Even he is having trouble with the Liars as Bambi attempts to keep her snout in the trough at Teh Paywallian.
Jupes, it seems like only moments ago when we were comparing all the good things of France and hot spots to visit. Like Ragu, you know so much about the place and I definitely benefited from that in my travels.
Those days will never return, they are gone. Those waiting to be vaxxed for travel will find that all is not as it seems, carefree travel will be at the whim of political masters, curtailed at the drop of a hat. The wall fell, only for the whole world to go Soviet.

The response is simple: close the hospitals.

Time for the churches to man up.
Sorry to hear of your awful situation, Jupes. What a mess-up hotel quarantine is, and the very idea of quarantining us forever from the rest of the world was and still is more than stupid, it is a failure of vision and forward planning. A degree of home quarantine with light supervision would have been a better option from the start, of the sort we did in late March 2020. Ok, a few may not comply, but that would have let Covid slowly spread through our community and it would have been much more handlable than the Great Australian Unexposed Populace we are faced with now under the elimination policy and hence the urgent vaxx push. If normal viral spread and population resistance had been allowed to develop, fewer people may have been pushed, as you have been, to vaxx when they really didn’t want to and our cultural norms of freedom may not have been so severely abused either.
Re Covid not being much of a threat – well maybe it is not in overall terms, but when it does grab you it can still be very nasty. I’ve read enough personal accounts of this, and talked to British friends about their own experiences, to know that. Anyone over 50 can be caught out. Younger ones only occasionally. Some younger nurses who have had very high exposures have died in Britain, but again, numbers there are low. Still, when it’s someone you love, it still counts a lot and is something that you might want them to avoid – and at any age. And to avoid yourself. Hence I am glad there is a vaxx of sorts for those who feel at risk, as I do. I’d like a better vaxx to be developed though, and I expect that will happen. It should always be accepted on a voluntary basis though. Never any compulsion. An attenuated viral vaxx would be far more popular anyway than less than fully tested mRNA ones.
