The protests are growing, that’s the main thing.

When Dan Jong Il could pretend that there were no protests, he could pretend that everyone approved. The more people realise that other people are objecting, the more they think that their own objections might be reasonable.

ABC full on German Covid crisis.
“The pandemic of the unvaccinated”

Gez… October stats from Britain are apparently showing that roughly 80% of those hospitalised and 80% of deaths are amongst the fully vaccinated.

Saturday night ‘Stones

The song was recorded in ’69 during the Let it Bleed sessions. For some strange reason, it was never released on a that or any of the following ‘official’ ‘Stones’ albums. Dunno why, it’s a great track, and could only improve any album it appeared on. It was eventually released on Metamorphosis, which was former manager Allen Klein’s way to squeeze some more money from ‘Stones songs that he had rights to.

Apparently Jagger never finished the lyrics and was just making it up as he went along on this recording. But who cares, for the majority of rock songs, the lyrics are the least important part. Should have polished it up a bit and put it out as single in the early ’70s. Whatever, it still kicks arse.

Yeah PeterW.
That’s why I’m highly suspicious of the German Covid crisis.
The big cover up is probably the failing effectiveness of vaccines.
The booster narrative is found in all the media accounts.
Those billions for biotech don’t come without a little concoction and coercion.

The story is accompanied by a snap of the ‘indigenous’ shrink. No discernible touch of the tar brush whatsoever

Back around the 1970s/1980s, anti-apartheid campaigners statred spreading allegations of miscegenation between Boers and blacks in South Africa. They dropped the campaign quickly, perhaps realising that claims that the Boers were part black actually strengthened their position.

Reversing that, I think that a reasonable case can be made that anyone descended from inhabitants of rural areas of Australia before around the 1930s would probably have aboriginal ancestors, at least as many as the “indigenous” shrink you mention.

When everyone claims indigenous ancestors, the specialness disappears. Get the campaign started!

As Mater witnessed – crammed in like sardines – or words to that effect.
Next week could be a doozy if that repugnant ‘Pandemic Bill” is passed this week!

I suspect that Maximum Leader has stood down the psychopathic thuggery till the Bill gets passed.
Not that Patten, Ratnam and Mednick (let alone any Liars Party apparatchnik) could care less about ordinary citizens being beaten to a pulp for disagreeing with the approved narrative, but even they might realise that it’s a bad look to hand untrammelled power to someone while that person is in the very process of imposing violent totalitarianism.
So, if the Bill does pass, next week will be a potential moment of truth.

What a wonderful turnout in Melbourne today. Traffic lights, road construction and full car parks conspired to make us late, but we got there eventually. I was worried that the weather forecast would have kept people from attending, but Melbournians rocked up and the rain stayed away.

The lady who was violently assaulted by Vicpol at the Richmond protest was also there. I had a quick chat to her. A lovely lady.

Looking forward to next week.

South Australian Senator Alex Antic today became the second Federal Coalition Senator to issue Prime Minister Scott Morrison an ultimatum on vaccine mandates.

Earlier this afternoon, Senator Antic announced via his official Facebook account that he has decided to follow the lead of his colleague Senator Gerard Rennick and withhold his vote in the Senate until Australians are properly protected from medical discrimination.

Good for Senators Antic and Rennick, it’s good to see that there are some honourable senators in the Senate. I vote below the line on the Senate ticket and although my first preferences go to minor parties, if there are decent people in the Senate I’ll also number them individually above their party’s preferred voting order. Unfortunately, none of the W.A. senators are worth voting for.

Because it doesn’t sound like him. At all. And it does sound like Ronnie Lane – a lot. Much busier than Wyman usually is, and more guitaristic, and to my ears at least a bit heavier on the treble and mids. I like both players, but there’s a difference. If I’m wrong, which is always at least a 51% possibility, it’s because Bill’s playing quite differently than usual on that track. (Which is a cracker.)

This video discusses new surprise discovery (yet to be confirmed by other scientists) that SARS-CoV-2 full length spike protein can enter human cell nuclei and interfere with fixing of broken DNA damage. Authors of the study propose this might have been evolved in order to prevent genetic recombination required to produce antibody variety to successfully attack the virus. If true, and if this could have important implications for potential negative health outcomes and might require reconfiguration of vaccine design.

We discuss the latest publication of a repot showing that spike protein can circulate for a prolonged period of time post vaccination.

We touch on again why the mRNA vaccine is an exciting technology for the future of medicine, especially in the context of the treatment of genetic diseases.

ABC thought the crowd was around 50K, so that is likely to be an underestimate. As DrBG wrote, multiply that by 10 at least to get the typical number of disaffected. However, in the current circumstance, I reckon you can double that again.

And yet Channel 7 had no problem stating there were only a thousand people there. Kerry Stokes is paying his news division too much.

There is no foolproof method. Genetic diseases can be de novo and are not uncommon. Even at birth there are already mutations in the genome.

In this Review we discuss recent findings suggesting that de novo mutations play a prominent part in rare and common forms of neurodevelopmental diseases, including intellectual disability, autism and schizophrenia. De novo mutations provide a mechanism by which early-onset reproductively lethal diseases remain frequent in the population. These mutations, although individually rare, may capture a significant part of the heritability for complex genetic diseases that is not detectable by genome-wide association studies.

@ Zipster. Would be nice if matey boy said what paper he was talking about. Obviously not this one comparing the publication date versus the video posted over two weeks ago.

Well, if there are still cells producing exosomes four months post gene therapy, then that is an indication that the (supposed) intended goal has not been achieved. There shouldn’t be any cells producing franken-spike four months after an adaptive immune response was supposedly instigated. There certainly should not be any still circulating. Cells should have no reason to communicate spike protein to other cells if all modified cells have been killed. Unless there’s been more jabbing since or the chemotherapy/ lipid nanoparticle mRNA delivery mechanism is still circulating and still in the process of releasing the cargo. Or the product is “not as described”. To the public that is.

What a pitiful “failure” of a product – BNT162b2 – in inducing immunity. It is hard at this time to say just how successful a product it may be in regard to other likely intended goals. I agree with this man.

This one’s for military type Cats – Patrick Bishop’s book on “Operation Jubilee” – the Dieppe Raid, of 1942 makes damn fine reading.

After the setting up of the “Commandos” – based on the Boer Commando’s 0f 1899 to 1902, the first raid on the German held coastline took place three weeks after Dunkirk. A hundred men, in four groups were dropped south of Boulogne to capture prisoners, and seize documents from a military HQ, set up in a requisitioned seaside hotel. One group was strafed from the air, by the R.A.F, who were not warned of the operation, another ran aground, the hotel was empty, so no prisoners were taken. Many of the party arrived back in England, insensible, after having got to the rum ration on the return journey. (Page 37.)

ABC thought the crowd was around 50K, so that is likely to be an underestimate. As DrBG wrote, multiply that by 10 at least to get the typical number of disaffected. However, in the current circumstance, I reckon you can double that again.

The protests are growing, that’s the main thing.

When Dan Jong Il could pretend that there were no protests, he could pretend that everyone approved. The more people realise that other people are objecting, the more they think that their own objections might be reasonable.

I maintain this is why this farce of a Petition needs serious investigation.

This simply can’t be a true reflection of the number who have tried to sign but it can be explained by Daniel Andrews fiddling the numbers to give him the [false] claim that ‘hardly anyone’ is against giving him these dangerous powers –

E-petition Number
402

Title
Reject the Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Pandemic Management) Bill 2021

Grievance
The Petition of certain citizens of the State of Victoria draws to the attention of the Legislative Council that the community opposes the Andrews Government’s Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Pandemic Management) Bill 2021.

The Bill hands enormous power to the Premier of Victoria, possibly perpetuating a pandemic dictatorship. It is undemocratic and a complete tyrannical overreach of political power. It inhibits proper Parliamentary scrutiny, transparency and potentially impacts scheduled state elections.

The Andrews Government has not consulted with the public on its powers.

The community specifically objects to the Bill granting the Premier wide sweeping powers to declare a pandemic despite low case numbers in the state of Victoria and potentially in the absence of cases, issuing pandemic orders for a period of time without the support of state parliament, and having the power to apply pandemic orders to classes of persons who can be identified by their characteristics or attributes, including but not limited to race, gender, religious, political belief or activity.

Action
The petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Council reject the flawed Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Pandemic Management) Bill 2021.

‘Ridiculous’ to cancel Jeremy Clarkson over column slamming Greta Thunberg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BG2LKiBmjk

Nov 10, 2021
Sky News Australia
The Australian’s Sophie Elsworth says it would be “ridiculous” for former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson to be cancelled after he said Greta Thunberg deserved a “smacked bottom”.

Mr Clarkson has been criticised for the comment in his Sunday Times column in which he slammed Ms Thunberg for a lack of manners and lack of knowledge about how the world works.

“If we’re going to cancel him over that, how ridiculous,” Ms Elsworth told Sky News host Rita Panahi.

“Saying a smacked bottom – I mean he’s saying it in jest.

“But he makes some very good points, I’m sick and tired of this Greta Thunberg going on and lecturing the world.

“I actually think it’s quite sad … I think she’s just being used as this pawn in this climate change debate and I don’t like it.”

A senior contributor at the Federalist, Stella Morabito, has published a warning to parents that if leftists are not stopped in their agenda, moms and dads soon could need a “license” to raise their own children.

“Licensing of parents might still sound fringy, but it’s an old social engineering dream that dies hard. And they’re busily building the road to get there. Unless there is aggressive and sustained pushback, you can count on the idea invading the mainstream,” she explained.

“So parents can’t let down their guard. They hold the key to getting through this wild ride.””

Never forget “Scommo” might have an unshakeable bitterness and malice in his heart towards the Australian for the treatment he got during and after the bushfires.

Not saying you’re wrong (you rarely are) but that would be ironic given the people he’s targeting for destruction are the people who stood up for him. He’s doing the bidding of the people who attacked him.

Re earlier post on Scummo & the bushfires-

I reckon this city boy had a tin ear when it comes to the bush. It was the same in the Drought. He just never seemed “to get it”, what it was like to see your breeding herds struggle to survive, to be told by Ag suppliers that they couldn’t get any more hay bales ( not even straw bales) & to wait, wait for rain. And the latter doesn’t go near to express what croppers, and all the rest went through.

Other urban PMs like Howard & others seemed to have greater understanding. Same during the fires. The TV screen never conveys the terrible fear when you set the alarm for midnight to wake up & make sure there are no spot fires in your paddocks from the mountains around you on fire. This PM seemed to have no real connection with any of this.

Maybe I am wrong but that is what it seemed to me. And I was a supporter of Morrison when he took the race from Dutton. Mea Culpa.

An interesting comment, Vicki. Morrison as the gormless, disconnected city slicker. I had never thought about him in that light.

One of my favourite sayings was, “Cometh the hour, cometh the man”, and it has been true in so many crises, until now. Retail politics has replaced politics of conviction, and nothing casts into such high relief as our own PM, one among a throng of world leaders of similar emptiness.

Such people are barely acceptable when things are going fine. Give them a crisis and they are lost, simply because they had no compass in the first place. Events overtake them and they, along with the people who entrusted them to govern, are lost too.

“Such people are barely acceptable when things are going fine. Give them a crisis and they are lost, simply because they had no compass in the first place.”

Well said, the problem with Scumbag Morrison is that he also has no courage whatsoever. He’s an appeaser on a scale that puts Chamberlain to shame….he avoids confrontation so that when he is confronted with a problem, a scandal or a crisis, Scumbag Morrison simply appeases or capitulates. In reality all he cares about is “perception”……what the MSM and the left think of him…he doesn’t give a rat’s arse about what the conservative voter thinks. It makes for disastrous leadership. We’ve seen how he dealt with the bushfires but also with how he handled the laughable “sexual scandals”…..involving Higgins and Porter. He allowed the MSM, social media sewers and the progressive left to control the narrative. All he had to do re. Porter was to stand in front of the various MSM hyenas and state that the police had decided not to pursue the matter, the matter was closed and that if the MSM hyenas wished to pursue the matter further, then he’d also have to talk about the Bill Shorten accusation. But that would take courage…..and Morrison, as we all know, is NOT a man of courage.

That’s his style, the reason he dropped the WA border case: matter pushed aside on the principle that he doesn’t have a single guiding light in any shape or form.

And yeah, Palmer is an odious creature, but he has deep pockets and Craig Kelly to keep him honest. I can set aside my reservations and support that.

the problem with Scumbag Morrison is that he also has no courage whatsoever

Hence his pass-the-parcel National Cabinet.
Which has resulted in biggest policy failure in the history of the Commonwealth
being the fault of someone else.

He’s like Homer Simpson, actually.

‘Can’t somebody else do it?’

Believe all women? No, only those women who have a story to tell about right-wing/conservative men. The MSM have never ever been interested in Kathy Sherrif’s story.

Tony Abbott made the Captain’s Call as P.M. not to go after Bill on those allegations.
Remember that?

Rita Panahi has been given Alan Jones’s poisoned chalice at 8pm on weeknights

So when does that insufferable pommie twat get the gig – or was that just a rumour?

She’s a 1950s housewife!

Aunty Annabelle Crabbe rang – she wants her image back, Daisy.

I want to watch a young John Howard the same way I want to bite down on a size 8/0 treble hook really, really, really hard.

Micallef said it better in his skit where he Alec Baldwinned himself.

All women are neurotic, she was no exception.

Mother won’t like you talking like that. You don’t want to upset Mother do you?

Mother gives Grigory the silent treatment. Grigory can’t throttle her any more because the pandemic has seen the price of epoxy glue and embalming fluids go through the roof.

Jack Davey was a radio star with a one in a million voice.
John Howard did well as the 16 year old Straight Man there, i’ll bet he’s a pretty funny guy in real life.

The CDC Finally Reveals Its Estimate for How Many Americans Have ‘Natural Immunity’: 146.6 Million People

I wonder how many of these people have been bullied into taking the vaccine, and what effect this will have on their natural immunity.

Actually, didn’t the Ruby Princess and the American battleship outbreaks prove that around 80% of people already had natural immunity through contact with prior corona outbreaks? This hideous race to vaccinate actually has the net effect of reducing immunity, as shown by the ever growing number of “breakthrough” cases.
