Ray Hadley is a bully.
My view is he’s making shit up to see where he sits with the new premier.Exactly.
The Dapto Dogcaller loves the Kung Flu crisis.
Same as Nanny Neil Mitchell in Melbourne.
Every morning there is a smorgasbord of Covid Porn numbers, a conga-line of concerned Karens on talk-back and a pre-prepared cohort of outcasts to beat up on.
The show writes itself and ratings are booming.
Dishlicker man doesn’t want to let that go. -
In Moron and Micron news:
AUKUS submarine deal with Australia was ‘clumsy’, US President Biden tells French President Macron
Mr Biden didn’t formally apologise to Mr Macron, but conceded the US should not have caught its oldest ally by surprise.
“I was under the impression that France had been informed long before,” he added.
What does this red button do?

Here’s a great discussion, uploaded yesterday on The New Culture Forum Youtube channel. Peter Whittle and David Starkey have a conversation…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rIeU_Enpn4
I particularly liked David Starkey’s description of bloated universities in 2021 as akin to the bloated church in medieval Europe….and Starkey says that the structures of academia need to be blown apart and there needs to be an academic reformation.

Everything is ready Rabz.
Nikes have arrived, boarding passes printed, black tracksuits are neatly folded and purple satin squares have been ironed (God, satin is a bitch to iron).
We are controlling the trajectory of the Hale-Bopp comet and boarding will be on schedule.
Heaven’s Gate awaits and we will begone! -
I think some may have misread my comment.
I am not the one wanting to “travel”. Unless it’s out the back door and into the garden. I’m more than content with my garden and family and friendship groups and hobbies.
The other half, though, has been Walter Mittying over itineraries and airline bookings for nearly two years. I married him for better and for worse and, it seems, for endless traipsing here and there.
Won’t happen. The logistics are impossible on today’s “travel” model. Which I have been telling him for months now – only just now has he realised the horrid truth.
You guys, of course, have always been ahead of the curve.

Biden administration refuses judge’s request to hold off on firing unvaccinated employees seeking religious exemptions
If I’m reading it correctly, it wasn’t a request but an order. Total contempt for the rule of law.After reading Steve Waterson’s description of the Pandemic Management Bill, if it gets through Victoria will never have to worry about such things again because it will easily handle such minor annoyances as appeals to justice.

Had your operation yet Sancho?
German on Trial for Castrating Men on His Kitchen Table (29 Oct)
A German electrician went on trial Thursday accused of murder in the death of one man, and mutilating several others by performing illegal operations on their genitals.
The 66-year-old told a regional court in Munich that he performed the procedures at the men’s request.
Germans do kinky with the same extreme attention to detail that they apply to everything.

I’ve yet to see a single person here resisting ‘on principle ‘ that doesn’t also claim the vaccines are useless/make you sick/ are dangerous and, mostly, anyone that’s had one is a traitor/a fool/a coward.That’s it you’re the fool. Not because of being frightened of believing the so called experts, who changed tack with every fresh breathe of wind. Which experts did you believe because just about every single one has said the opposite of what another has said.
‘ that doesn’t also claim the vaccines are useless/make you sick/ are dangerous
Just these vaccines fool. They are not vaccines in any form but you know that. What makes you a fool is you keep doubling down. When the Novavax becomes available I will most likely have it after a year or so to see if it really works or what sort of side effects it has. One thing I can say about the so called vaccine side effect is it throws rationality out the window in a lot of cases and causes a rabidness that would see a dog put down. You’ve turned into Karen. Where has it got you? Take a deep breathe and reflect on what you say. People on this site generally care about others even if they disagree. You’re heading in the fixated direction, its never too late too pull back.

The Dan bots are still blaming NSW for their misery and quote the deaths in the current outbreaks as a victory for the Chairman.
NSW 510
Vic 280
Taken over the length of the outbreaks Dan is still in the worst at every measure.
NSW 3.49 deaths per day.
Vic 4.91
Adjusted for population it’s worse again naturally.
237 cases in NSW today. The Armageddon promised by the “experts” gets another rain check.
How long before the bleeding obvious gets noticed by the media and they call on the experts to account for the hype? -

Not true at all. What about me?
They are dangerous and useless. These. Are. Facts. There are better ones available or on the pipeline . It is part of the reason why I don’t want them. Principle is the other part.
I have never bought into the nano wrigglers or traitor nonsense, please don’t conflate the two perspectives.
As for “being free”, I was free the day I was born. Despite the shocking assault on civil liberties that has occurred during my lifetime, I welcome Dom P bringing forward the end of medical apartheid in NSW.
Here is a list that yours truly suggests of non negotiable demands that I am sure We, The People will assent:
1. He ought to sack Elliot, Chant, Worboys & Hazzard.
2. Repeal all emergency COVID regulation & legislation and related “contract tracing”.
3. Repeal the public health Act.
4. Move civil liberties back to where they stood in the 1980s before cheap Laura Norder fat men from the Dapto dishlickers demanded we destroy an 800 year old legacy so the most deranged of his callers (Hi, Stackja!) feel safe with their 37 cats and Mother’s ashes.

From your post last night about Bandana Man getting the crap beaten out of himself. In ever tire of seeing that specially how the other Wallabies looked on wishing they were doing it too.
There wasn’t exactly a throng of Wallabies descending on Bandana’s assailant with a chorus of, “Hey, Froggie, leave our boy alone!”.

This is what it is all about for them.
Sutton yesterday bragging that Victoria was on track to be among “the top five jurisdictions in the world for vaccination”.
Nothing to do with any alleged science or even flaky modelling.
It’s an obsession with finishing on the podium in some macabre race.
Presumably it will boost Sutton’s price on the WHO speaking circuit.
Absolutely spot on. It’s another manifestation of the political class’s desire to be part of the transnational elite rather than serve the people who elected them and pay them. -
Bern @ 8:48.
Had a long discussion about this last night with my sister. The original “report” was from Hadley & as you say, Bern, until Perrottet changes the Govt’s statement, there’s nothing to it.
It does however remind me of something I read here the other day: one of Glady’s media-type people said that she only bought in the outdoor mask mandate because of the daily pounding by the media. So if it is a media-driven policy change, is Hadley the “go-too” on that? Not likely.
The only other scenario that makes sense is Hadley’s been fed the story from someone in the govt to see whether everyone will accept a change. (Remembering that awful Chant started talking about 95% the other day – coincidence?)
But trying to argue that it was Glad who said 1/12/21 and not the current bloke won’t wash IMO because the people don’t like promise-breakers and everyone knows the date.
I know the govt has been slowly pushing up the % (Chant) but they’re already opened up most everything for most people. And, for them, the 1/12 was essentially sold as the end of it all – pushing the date further back, and when Perrottet said he wanted to move more quickly to open, makes him look shifty, especially when combined with the goal posts move to a higher %.
Lastly, once Dec hits everyone starts thinking about Xmas and their family. Saying to people who are not fully vaxxed/unvaxxed that they can’t go out to organise their family Xmas is bringing the Xmas Grinch into play.
I realise that the vaxxed/unvaxxed arguments are still real for many people, but another Xmas destroyed by govt? Well, that won’t wash with a lot of people.

It is already happening
As far as I can tell about 40-50% of proffs and assoc proffs at a particular university here have vapourised.and the missus is now without a PhD supervisor
Last word I got was that she’ll be allocated one from the pool of those remaining who are of course, ideologically sound. The best part is that there will be a committee for ultimate oversight.
Timeline … er, they don’t have one
Kulaks, guess what political stripe unites the new guard?

Oh yes novavax the holy grail of vaxxes.
Covaxin is already available, and is being exported from India around the world. Maybe you could write a letter to Mr Hunt asking him to order some.

The Governors race must be getting desperate for the Dems, they broken out the tiki torches and tried to insinuate that Youngkin is a white nationalist:
Glenn Greenwald
@ggreenwald

2h
Dem Party operatives and MSNBC “analysts” spent the day spreading a photo that was dubious from the start – staged to make it appear neo-Nazis were supporting Glenn Youngkin – and now it turns out that, yet again, they spread disinformation. Over and over: the same people do this -
Commodus Dan has only a couple of days to go before the total cases in Vic for these outbreaks tops NSW.
Headlines no doubt.

In Poirot news:
Statement from Hannah Gutierrez Reid- Armorer on the Rust set.
Ultimately this set would never have been compromised if live ammo were not introduced. Hannah has no idea where the live rounds came from. Hannah and the prop master gained control over the guns and she never witnessed anyone shoot live rounds with these guns and nor would she permit that. They were locked up every night and at lunch and there’s no way a single one of them was unaccounted for or being shot by crew members.
So, all guns under control at all times.
No plinking by the naughty crew.
And ‘someone’ popped a few live rounds into the armorer’s unattended box of 500 mixed blanks and dummies. For some reason.Probably the end of the era of feisty armorer chicks.
Also Alec Baldwin’s production career, because OH&S.

Speaking of bogans demanding the immediate restoration of their cheap Bali holidays, the poison leprechaun insists you are double waxxed, secure three (3) negative covid tests within 72 hours of any international departure and don the compulsory mask for the 20+ hour flight all the way to London.
If everyone on the flight is jabbed and negative for the Rona, just where does this execrable flog think the virus is hiding waiting to strike?
Inside their shitty in flight rag?

Oh yes novavax the holy grail of vaxxes.
Funnily enough I don’t care what vaxx you get or when or where you get it.How long before you get the top-up jab.? Will it it give you any more protection that the other ones didn’t or will it make your own natural auto-immune system weaker. I posed the same question to my wife, she said I won’t get a booster. Then why did you get the jab in the first place? Blindly believing the so called experts has proved to be fraught with danger. Stop being the “Fool”.

today’s important takeaway … always use the word ’empathy’ as a weapon
“Don’t fight in the North or the South. Fight every battle everywhere, always, in your mind. Everyone is your enemy, everyone is your friend. Every possible series of events is happening all at once. Live that way and nothing will surprise you. Everything that happens will be something that you’ve seen before.”

Vicki – It is in use in India in addition with the AZ vaccine according to recent news reports. I suspect it will take over the grunt vaccination work there because AZ is inherently limited by development of immunity to the adenovirus vector. AZ is of course a mRNA “vaccine” whereas Covaxin is a real killed-virus vaccine.
From the news reports it looks like WHO is dragging their heels about Covaxin. I suspect there mught be pressure from US pharma and from the Chinese Government behind that.
-
Covaxin is already available, and is being exported from India around the world. Maybe you could write a letter to Mr Hunt asking him to order some.
Sounds good so far. Uses dead virus cells, based on tried and TESTED technology. But I need to know was it developed and/or tested using aborted fetal cell lines?

This is what it is all about for them.
Sutton yesterday bragging that Victoria was on track to be among “the top five jurisdictions in the world for vaccination”.I noticed that too.
There is no bar low enough that these leeches can’t limbo under if the right tune is playing. -
But I need to know was it developed and/or tested using aborted fetal cell lines?
Don’t know Gab, all I’ve looked at is the wiki I linked and the news (put Covaxin in DDG and look at the news tab: lots of Indian articles, they seem quite miffed with the WHO). According to the wiki the virus is cultured in a green monkey cell line.

I’ve yet to see a single person here resisting ‘on principle ‘ that doesn’t also claim the vaccines are useless/make you sick/ are dangerous and, mostly, anyone that’s had one is a traitor/a fool/a coward.
You need to get out more…and stop verbalising people on this blog. I know LOTS of people who have held out on principle, sometimes contrary to their personal health (if the narrative is to be believed). Some have recently been forced to cave, others are in a world of hurt.
Do you know for certain that these vaccines have no long term adverse impacts?
As for “traitor/a fool/a coward”:
Traitor: Maybe unknowingly (which is probably more accurately described as a ‘useful idiot’), but if the cap fits.
Fool: If you are trying to deny that getting it contributed to the establishment of the ‘vaccine economy’, this would be correct.
Coward: If you advocated trading in our freedoms, to save your own skin, again, accurate.Give it a rest rosie, you’ve become a shill, and I’ve caught you out a couple of times now with less than accurate posts. You come across as a dogmatic know-it-all. So much of what we now know about these vaccines has come to light AFTER they were released/forced on the public. There is every chance there is more to come. What is beyond doubt is that they have been used to transform our society in less then two years.
-
They were locked up every night and at lunch and there’s no way a single one of them was unaccounted for or being shot by crew members.
Which – if true – would leave only two suspects in the frame for loading the weapon with live rounds – Hannah &/or the prop master.
They aren’t thinking this through very well.

I prefer this sort of activism rather than carbon taxes, nett zero and the destruction of industry.
They’re wrong about a lot, but if everyone went out and planted trees themselves and voted in nuke; it would be be better than going down the stupid path of nett zero.
Inspired by David Attenborough and renowned Australian climate experts, Clive Blazey’s eighth book is a gardener’s guide to achievable solutions for this global climate change crisis. Planting trees and gardening sustainably are some of the simplest solutions for carbon drawdown. This book contains detailed information on almost 100 ornamental, fruit and nut trees selected for climate suitability, shade, habitat protection and bushfire prevention. Each tree listed in this book is growing in one of The Diggers Foundation gardens, so we have gained valuable first-hand knowledge by planting, trialling and careful study over more than 40 years. Information gathered over this journey has enabled us to compile a list of the best trees for Australian gardeners.
If we protect our existing forests and oceans from exploitation and destruction, their recovery will give us enough time to switch to renewable energy.
You mean thorium.
But above all else, we must plant trees and adopt a plant-based diet.
No champ.

Great stuff
https://www.sosbiz.com.au/votethemout/
The Victorian Government is proposing to pass into law a new set of powers that will enable the Premier to extend emergency powers, including closing businesses for up to 3 months at a time.
3 Upper House MP’s have enabled these proposed laws to be created and in coming weeks they will get to pass this into new legislation.
Victorian citizens have not been consulted nor have any of the health advice used over the last 18 months been made public.
If you are a concerned citizen please provide us with your details and we will provide you a Citizen Action Plan that shows you practical things you can do now. Your action will ensure your members of parliament know your views and that you expect them to stand up for them when they get to vote.

The vegan climate mafia are fun. What they don’t seem to realize is that if stuff like Australian grass-fed beef and lamb are banned (see Leak this morning) it would increase GHG generation and land-use based warming as more land would have to be given over to broad-acre agriculture, because unfortunately for vegans we can’t eat grass.

I predict a steady increase in new business registrations in NSW heading into the New Year and a continued outflow of population – and state tax base -from Victoria. Thankfully Scotty will have the population ponzi back up and running by then: destination Melbourne.

Heard an interesting podcast. Covid should be reconsidered as a inflammation induced illness.
Every single co-morbidity has an inflammation market, and ever cure has an anti inflammatory element. Shit.
One very natural way of reducing inflammation is drinking lots of green tea.
There were others but can’t be bothered listing them.

About 95% of people ingested the kool-aid, voluntarily or not.
The 5% who didn’t had made a run for it, the first wave of runners sensing trouble brewing were dealt with by the security forces at the airport. Ironically that was the cause for the total breakdown. The second wave ran during the crises and some survived. The difference being adrenaline and better cover during the chaos of the crises I guess. The first group despite being more attune to the moment, underestimated how bad things really were. The second later saw with their own eyes.
But here’s the unfortunate thing. The first wave of runners wanted out, they bravely exited their society when there was no immediate crises. They felt something was going badly wrong with their society, saw what was coming and acted before it did. To the loud jeers and denouncement and mockery of their leaders and society and friends and in some cases own families. They mostly died at the hands of the security forces who were ordered to prevent them leaving the country an hour later.
The second runners, who survived, had not left with them. Either afraid or didn’t believe (or want to believe) what the people in the first group were saying. Yet they alone largely lived.
Quite the paradox.
