Dear God,
Please let Austria burn from border to border so that no bastard will ever mention compulsory experimental vaccines ever again
John Milionis rightly criticises the Herald Sun for their many page coverage of the Paine story in yesterday’s paper.

‘National Emergency’ — Germany May Introduce Mandatory Vaccines as Coronavirus Cases Climb (21 Nov)
This is so dumb because the Swedish data shows the problem is the vaccinatred, and if you force vaccination of the unvaccinated you render vulnerable even the hitherto naturally immune.
Meanwhile the subclinical side effects are not trivial.
German Physician Warns Already Vaxxed: “Don’t Get Another Shot Under Any Circumstances!“ (21 Nov)
The cumulative effect is totally unknown. Never looked at in the studies as far as I know. Yet the pollies are panicking and pushing for endless boosters despite the worst record for any approved pharmaceutical since thalidomide.
“That’s what everyone that doesn’t care for Dan is.
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews says his relationship with Prime Minister Scott Morrison will improve when the pm stops double speaking to extremists”
Quite so….and if Morrison had any balls, which of course he doesn’t, he would state publicly that his relationship with Dan Andrews will improve when Andrews stops smearing him and ordinary Australians as being friendly to extremists.
And if Victoria had a Liberal opposition with any balls, which of course it doesn’t, on Friday Matthew Guy would have insisted that every Liberal MP in the lower and upper Victorian houses attend Saturday’s march.
How Dan is laughing.

Yes, indeed.
When you’re supposedly reporting a complex medical/social/political issue, and the failure of public trust at multiple points – break out the cartoonists.
Are you sure it’s the worst BoN?
It’d have thought the contraceptive pill was right up there.
Blood clots , breast cancer, nobody cares.
bill, breast cancer
I wouldn’t know about that Rosie since I’ve never been on it… 😀
But the difference is the contraceptive pill is voluntary. The Covid vaccination 9/10ths isn’t, and is rapidly approaching 10/10th isn’t, as we see from the above.
Like contraception there are several alternatives to the vaccine. unlike contraception the government has banned them. Could you imagine the outcry from women if condoms, IUDs, abortion and abstinence were banned?
Hehe, just thought to myself what’d happen if an employer told women they had to take the Pill to keep their jobs…oh wow.
Safe! Free! Effective!
Without being an apologist for the pill, do you have macro data that shows that women’s overall health severely deteriorated following the introduction of the pill?
There is this kind of macro data for the covid vax – excess deaths are high and getting worse in country after country. This is backed up by UK data showing all cause death rates in the vaxed = twice death rates in unvaxed.

Outstanding article by Alexandra Marshall in the Speccie . . . love her work.
https://www.spectator.com.au/2021/11/this-is-a-restoration-not-a-revolution/
Before the oppressive communist regime fell, the USSR was plagued by months of protests. Hundreds of thousands filled the cities of Soviet satellite nations. Their dictators fronted crowds, expecting to find the same praise and worship that decades of fear had accustomed them to. It was an exercise in delusion. Every civilisation has a tipping point where no amount of authoritarian power can overcome the masses.
If history’s most ruthless governments could not survive citizen outrage, what makes the West’s leaders think they will?
It has taken a while for Australians to stir from their comfy centuries of peace. Prodding the ant nest, as they say, required an unusually large amount of thumping. The French were born protesting, but Australians inherited political reserve from their English ancestry. That is not to say that we are politically peaceful.
A Western leader who manages to upset their democracy makes a grave error.
In the Westminster system, politicians are public servants. If they attempt to elevate themselves to ‘dictator’, it is likely the voting public will tear down the whole show if for no other reason than to punish them for such arrogance.
Premiers abused political majority, so Australians will exile them into minority. Let them wade around in the muck while a conservative alliance of minor parties hold the balance of power. Take away the salaries of seat-warming MPs. Gut the major parties of politicians who do nothing of value for the people. Put an end to mediocrity.
Camera-loving politicians seem desperate for attention during Covid, so it is time for Australia to scrutinise them.
Do they serve us – or themselves? Have they spent decades padding out our political system with unnecessary laws to the point of suffocation? Where does all our money go, because it certainly isn’t into the hospital system…
It is telling that on the day up to 100,000 residents flooded Sydney’s CBD to protest losing their jobs because of mandatory vaccination policies, the only Tweet put out by Premier Dominic Perrottet was about an airport project to ‘create jobs’.
If Perrottet isn’t nervous, the Prime Minister certainly is.
Scott Morrison has awoken from his tyranny-enabling slumber and decided he likes ‘freedom’ because it has marketing potential for the next election. He should ‘like’ freedom because he is the man responsible for protecting the human rights of Australians. Any leader prepared to sit back for months and let the people be abused has no genuine empathy.
National Cabinet was an attempt by Scott Morrison to distance himself from blame while enjoying the perks of power. There is no reason to believe the Prime Minister is suddenly serious about freedom when his Federal government is providing states with the backbone of technology and information required for vaccine passports.
“We are enabling citizens to consent to provide their immunisation record to a state for integration in the check-in app. How that is used and what is required for citizens is set by the state against health orders,” said the Senate Select Committee, insisting they weren’t using public money to create a vaccine passport system.
Whether they admit to it or not, the Federal government is part of the problem. Scott Morrison is one of many Western leaders who took advice from international bureaucracies. The reason we have identical worldwide protests is because we have an unelected world government controlling domestic policy – not through force, but via the desperate need of weak leaders to pander to the international spotlight. It is a gender-inclusive dick-measuring contest where each prime minister, president, and king-in-waiting shows the United Nations how much power they have over their citizens.
Look around the world. Dissent. Separatism. Furious citizens storming the streets.
In a bold move (considering their awkward history) Austria announced house arrest for the unvaccinated – only for their police and army to turn on the government and declare that they would not enforce those orders. If only Victoria Police had shown the same courage instead of shooting Australians in the back with rubber bullets as they gathered at the Shrine of Remembrance.
What we are seeing on our streets is a demand for restoration, not revolution.
The citizens of the West want their countries back, and if their leaders refuse to give up power voluntarily – like the Communist leaders of old – the Globalists will be ousted from power by the fury of the mob.
No regime can withstand a defiant population. In Victoria, Labor Premier Daniel Andrews may very well be able to buy off another unscrupulous MP to pass his pandemic legislation, but it won’t matter. He cannot be in every business, in every home, or in every street. The only thing Daniel Andrews will do is de-legitimise his government and reduce it to the status of a laughing stock.
Australia isn’t quite Berlin circa 1960, but we have border walls to tear down, families to reunite, and liberties to return.
These seemingly ‘all-powerful’ corporates and politicians sipping champagne at the World Economic Forum have been put on notice. Society at large is not going to accept a ‘new normal’. We won’t be subscribing to the globalist fantasy of digital surveillance, green fascism, a parallel carbon economy, or socialism by stealth. Build back better? Forget it.
Our government will no longer be run by decree from a Swiss ski resort.
If Australia wants to survive the next hundred years, it must restore itself to the free, fun, and open society that we were born into. Liberty is the only real safety a citizen has.
Made the top 50.
Bruce in WA, still alive?

My son and Dil are both pro vaxx, but are strongly against excluding the vaxxed from anything. They will also not line up to get no1 grandson vaxxed when he turns 5 next year. Both kids are totally unaware of what goes on around them, but she has read enough to be convinced that jabbing anyone under 20 is a complete waste if time, and is waiting to see the long term effects on kids
Yet the pollies are panicking and pushing for endless boosters despite the worst record for any approved pharmaceutical since thalidomide.
Wonder how much testing was done on thalidomide before it was released v testing on wuflu ‘vax’ before release?

Warren’s cartoon is breathtaking in its stupidity.
Not just the absurdity of mocking people saying they know (how to assess risk with regards to themselves) better – who is he saying they should defer too? Government? Departments? Peak organisations that have only a minority of those they claim to represent – Hello, AMA -*waves*.Columnists and TV talking heads?
Do any of those have a track record so good that you would abdicate your own judgement? Do you know anyone who governs their own lives worse than government manages Australia?
I would guess he never reflected on that.
But has he not noticed the ludicrous idea that a vaccine works for you not when you have it, but only when other people do.
Does he not even get an uneasy feeling that a few years ago he would have found that ridiculous? Does he have some new medical knowledge of how vaccines work that explains this? I think everyone gets the idea that your body develops antibodies and with that combats subsequent infection. Has he learned something new about the immune response that explains how you are only saved by other people’s antibodies, and they are saved by yours, despite them offering minimal protection to their own hosts?
And has he given any thought as to how many people got vaccinated because they thought it was in their best medical interest and how many did so to get out of the lockdowns imposed by governments that acknowledge no limits to their authority. Under threat to livelihood and mental health a lot of people got the jab – like thugs government said “Nice li’l life you got ‘ere. Shame if sumfing ‘appened to it…”
These are the people Warren thinks we should obey, and those who do not are idiots.
Here’s quite an interesting article on the success or otherwise of COP 26. It is worth reading as it summarizes many of the main predictions made over the past forty years about Climate change with links to the facts. https://dailysceptic.org/2021/11/20/was-cop26-peak-snake-oil/
DeSantis bill signed in Brandon forces companies to slam brakes on COVID vaccine mandates
The message needs to get out into the street – not sure how – that there is no real difference between being vaccinated and not vaccinated, at least in terms of contagion. At present, the fallacy that the unvaccinated are contagious is becoming entrenched and causing enormous harm, not just in whether or not to be vaccinated but also in human interrelations where it is not uncommon for family members to refuse to see unvaccinated family members, for parents to refuse to see their adult children. And the same fallacy is reproduced in ever-widening ripples of interrelations. But it’s not true, so it can’t be that difficult to overcome. But how.

I would add that the lightweight Morrison lost whatever ticker he had (which wasn’t much) after the bushfire hysteria. He fell for it hook, line and sinker. Since then, all he’s done is take his cues from the progressive left, the MSM and social media….he’s been like a frightened timid mouse, constantly fellating everyone and everything that came before him…..whether it be Covid, national cabinet, SAS, Holgate, Higgins, Porter and so on.
Morrison’s problem is that he wants to be liked….by his ideological enemies. It’s a fatal character flaw.
Sign me up for the next anti-government rally in Melbourne: let’s go, Brandon/Fuck dan Andrews. His arrogance, with the fawning adoration of the bumboy news media (which even this morning is still replaying his weekend denunciation of “extremists”) is so low-rent. By comparison, the American Democrats are amateurs at the divide-and-conquer methodology.
It’s worth the 100km trip from the country and the CBD parking hassles. I’m also going to encourage other friends who didn’t vote for him to protest.
Reported today:
Earlier this year NSW CHO Kerry Chant urged Berejiklian and Hazzard to enforce a nightly curfew for Sydneysiders to “message” the importance of “compliance” with lockdown rules.
This was not “health advice” but an attempted arbitrary limitation on civil rights by a non-elected official. To her credit Berejiklian did not follow through.

Covasim + Gigo.
What is Covasim?
I don’t think that’s a driver for him given what we know of his personality (Mathias Cormann confirmed suspicions there).
His main problem is that he has ambition but lacks convictions (an empty suit; the corporate world is full of them). Therefore he’s a reactive politician rather than one who leads from the front with a vision of what he wants to achieve with power. As a result he’s captive to the daily press cycle and the polls. As we’ve seen with “net zero”, he’ll turn on a dime if he thinks it will give him an electoral advantage with the centre, which is traditionally where elections are won in Australia given our compulsory voting system. This is a problem for a Liberal because the centre has been drifitng leftwards for some time and the more Liberals like Morrison chase it the more they alienate their voter base. Prediction: if he loses next year he’ll leave politics.
Heh. Had a family get together in Melb. Out of 10 people, only 1 was vax’d, and none of went to the freedom rally.

Meanwhile, over here in the People’s Fascist State of Sandgroperstan, our Glorious Leader Marx McClown has decreed that volunteer firefighters are required to provide evidence of vaccinations by 31 December. Unless evidence is provided volunteers are excluded from all activities and attendance at the station. Apparently this is for the safety of fellow firefighters and the broader community.
That’s just cost my local community at least one 20-year veteran (me), and all the skills, experience, training and local knowledge that goes with it.

Talking with my leftie sister this morning, she stated that 95% of people in hospital for wuflu (in Vic) are unvaccinated. Doesn’t sound right to me, can anyone direct me to where I can find the real figures? Thanks

The Australian this morning has Twiggy Forrest wanting to stop the diesel “subsidy” and spend the money on “green” hydrogen. God help us, but he’s a moron.
Can I throw my tuppence worth into the Morrison assessment? Loved Roger’s appraisal of M’s pursuit of the media cycle & bad assessment of the All important Centre of the Party.
Morrison should be given credit for his efficient execution of Abbott’s Stop the Boats policy. But it was downhill after that. My big upset has been his complete lack of understanding of Regional Australia. Unlike other “urban” PMs he always seemed “going through the motions” when visiting the country during the last dreadful Drought. This was repeated during the Bushfire crisis. Had no idea of the terror & psychological damage, let alone the devastation.
I think Roger is right. He pursues the zeitgeist. Like any good marketer. We bloody deserve more than that in a time of global leadership failure & a threatening China.
Not a moron but a massive rent-seeker wanting to drain taxpayers of their hard earned. The politicians listening to him are the morons.
No. He’s a spiv. He intends to make money from subsidies for ‘green’ hydrogen.
Be interesting to see the trade in FMC shares.
Sfw – if this it’s true it defies what is happening in the rest of the world!
But the most interesting is WA where hospitals are in same crisis as rest of Oz. No Covid there – but vaccination program is full steam ahead.
Go figure.
If he loses next year will he call that a miracle?
I’ve never liked Morrison because when he first hit the scene he used the “babble ’em senseless” rhetorical strategy. He would ignore the question and host and just keep rambling on. It was such an obvious cheap trick and it pissed me off.
Really? Sounds like they are not much of a threat to the vaccinated if there are not more vaccinated people infected.
Cool!
No need for mandates.
95% unvaccinated in hospital.
That’s a no.
26% fully vaccinated in Vic as of the 19th.
You can triple that for the one jab group and also remember that they won’t count you as fully vaccinated for about 14-21 days after your jab.
There’s no doubt that the majority in hospital right now are vaccinated at least once.
They’re lying, we know they’re lying and they don’t care.
And so it begins …
Re WA the need is to erase any significant non vaccinated group to hide the total failure of the covid ‘vaccinations’ to do anything about ‘stopping the spread’. Before they announce 3+ jabs per year forever for everyone they need everyone hooked and are under serious time pressure as they know when the next ‘wave’ comes it’ll be impossible to hide that 20, 60 or 95% makes no difference at all unless everyone is getting constant jabs, and that unvaccinated people are little worse off than their vaccine dependent junkies.
It’s that simple.
Nearly two years and hundreds of billions of dollars of lockdowns later and we don’t have ten covid treatment centres of excellence dotted around Australia and an army of rapidly trained nurses and doctors to staff them.
Instead nurses and doctors are being fired and bullied.
Some plague.

THE COMING WAR ON CHINA – FULL DOCUMENTARY | John Pilger Economic Military Power
Nuclear war is not only imaginable, but planned. The greatest build-up of NATO military forces since the Second World War is under way on the western borders of Russia. On the other side of the world, the rise of China is viewed in Washington as a threat to American dominance.
To counter this, President Obama announced a ‘pivot to Asia’, which meant that almost two-thirds of all US naval forces would be transferred to Asia and the Pacific, their weapons aimed at China. A policy which has been taken up by his successor Donald Trump, who during his election campaign said “We can’t continue to allow China to rape our country and that’s what they’re doing”.
Filmed on five possible front-lines across Asia and the Pacific over two years, the story is told in chapters that connect a secret and ‘forgotten’ past to the rapacious actions of great power today and to a resistance, of which little is known in the West.

I agree to a point shatterzzz, but I think today’s keyboard generation are not really inclined to go out and protest/march – could be wrong though.
The last time I marched/protested was way back 40 years ago in my uni days at the protests against apartheid during the 1981 Springbok tour of NZ – the family was living in Auckland at the time.
A couple of those protest marches way back then were pretty scary with the police very intimidating and looking for a fight but at least they weren’t armed (and willing to shoot) with rubber bullets and pepper spray. You just had to take the risk of truncheons etc and I used to borrow a mate’s motorbike helmet for protection, just in case.

Helpfully, this bloke points out that the outbreak was caused by people living too close together, and that the obvious outcome of any declaration of this type should be more and better housing for everyone, paid for by somebody else.

They stopped reporting the number in hospital that are vaccinated for obvious reasons.

Another step forward.
Australia will sign a treaty with the US and Britain on Monday formalising access to the allies’ nuclear submarine secrets under the AUKUS strategic partnership.
The agreement, to be tabled in parliament, will allow Defence’s nuclear submarine taskforce to commence a detailed assessment of Australia’s submarine options, and open the door for Australian personnel to undergo nuclear training in the US and UK.
Defence Minister Peter Dutton will sign the “Exchange of Naval Nuclear Propulsion Information Agreement” in Canberra with US charge d’affaires Mike Goldman and British high commissioner Vicki Treadell.
The move follows a determination by US President Joe Biden at the weekend approving the sharing of US nuclear propulsion technology with Australia and Britain for “our mutual defence”.
Mr Dutton told The Australian the treaty was a key step forward, enabling detailed consultations between Australia and its allies on their closely guarded nuclear submarine technology.
“This agreement will support Australia in completing the 18 months of intensive and comprehensive examination of the requirements underpinning the delivery of nuclear-powered submarines,” he said.
“The US and the UK will be able to communicate to Australia naval nuclear propulsion information to determine the optimal pathway to acquire nuclear-powered submarines for operation by the Royal Australian Navy.
“With access to the information this agreement delivers, coupled with the decades of naval nuclear-powered experience our UK and US partners have, Australia will also be positioned to be responsible and reliable stewards of this technology.”
The agreement will be considered by parliament’s joint standing committee on treaties, and will also be subject to domestic consideration in the US and UK. Mr Dutton said Australian personnel would now be able to commence education and training programs in the US and UK to learn “how to safely and effectively build, operate and support nuclear-powered submarines”.
The agreement would also allow Australia to get to work creating the necessary regulatory framework to enable the safe development and operation of nuclear propulsion, he said.

Nahhh .. Abbott and Angus Campbell managed that one. Morro was just a mouthpiece.

Morning all!
I see the protests and I want to recapture my country from the political/media class.
Perhaps the best I have seen is a grassroots uncoordinated campaign to persuade people to put sitting members last.
Given the ridiculously small margins in most elections it has a lot of leverage.
But I would like to extend the idea. A local member’s office would probably take evidence of committment to this as a reason to take you seriously. Drop a ream of photocopy paper printed with Sitting Member Last flyers, and offer to letterbox them and pay $100 to Facebook to advertise the message.

We should remember that “death threats” are the central theme of jab coercion.

The Trouble With John Pilger’s The Coming War on China
The Coming War on China does not engage in lies but it evades the truth so much that it is rendered invisible. (One doesn’t know whether Pilger appreciates his thoughts are often verbatim to what regularly appears in Chinese state television, though he fails to include one single clip from this media instead relying on a montage of American news shows to indicate a warmongering United States.) If, according to Joseph Goebbels, by telling a lie enough times it becomes the truth, then the reverse is also true: by evading the truth enough times it becomes a lie.

Ed?
Be polite, that’s Mr Ed. Or perhaps we could go around a decade further back, to Francis the Talking Mule?
Plibbers seems to be saying that the anti-mandates crowd were violent and the Morro lacks the nads to condemn the violence outright.
Was there violence?
Actually its much worse than that. An oligarch is proposing an increase in off-road diesel costs that will crush and shutter marginal miners, leaving his company increased opportunity through weaponised Government.
Sorry, I should have included this.

Twiggy Forrest is definitely no moron.
He is as cunning as a shithouse rat and can sniff a government subsidy through a metre of concrete.

Vaccinated English adults under 60 are dying at twice the rate of unvaccinated people the same age
And have been for six months. This chart may seem unbelievable or impossible, but it’s correct, based on weekly data from the British government.
The brown line represents weekly deaths from all causes of vaccinated people aged 10-59, per 100,000 people.
The blue line represents weekly deaths from all causes of unvaccinated people per 100,000 in the same age range.
I have checked the underlying dataset myself and this graph is correct. Vaccinated people under 60 are twice as likely to die as unvaccinated people. And overall deaths in Britain are running well above normal.
I don’t know how to explain this other than vaccine-caused mortality.
The basic data is available here, download the Excel file and see table 4:

Never saw one in Brisbane growing up, by the 2000s they were ubiquitous.

They’re shitting themselves these protests are on the cusp of becoming self sustaining and a completely mainstream activity. A summer of dissent with a carnival style relaxed social atmosphere.
A total antidote to their hegemonic grim reaper State Of Disaster fabricated reality.
Meanwhile, over here in the People’s Fascist State of Sandgroperstan, our Glorious Leader Marx McClown has decreed that volunteer firefighters are required to provide evidence of vaccinations by 31 December. Unless evidence is provided volunteers are excluded from all activities and attendance at the station.
Is there a mandate for unionised paid firefighters?

Pete,
I was forced into it last week.
I’m glad your rage is only at 11, you must be a saint. Mine is orders of magnitude higher.
They took one look at my face, and didn’t even bother asking if I consented. They just stabbed me, after a mechanical spiel about ‘rare’ side effects.
Consider that despite total command and control of all mass communication, from media to social media, these protests are swelling.
Completely organic. I feel like I’m pretty plugged in to the fringes and only knew about Brisbane because I saw a random post somewhere and then just assumed there would be one in Brisbane to match the others. A text to some others and they were the same and seven of us went 50 -100km kms into the cbd not knowing what to expect.
Wide eyes all around when we got there.
Parks Victoria’s woke guide to the white ibis:
‘sacred to Indigenous communities’
‘Due to declines in the quality of their natural habitat and their expanding population size, many ibis have unfortunately begun supplementing their diets from landfill sites, bins and litter’
‘their population size has increased leading to greater potential for human-wildlife conflict to occur.’

White ibis, aka a bin chicken.
A few years ago, one foggy day there was a thump against one of our white garage doors. Mrs Eyrie checked outside to see one groggy looking bin chicken pick itself up and takeoff across the road just missing the roof of the house across the street. It must have thought that the garage door was lighter than surroundings so headed for the “opening”.
That’ll teach the bastard to fly in marginal VFR.
What’s this all about then?
In feel like the anti mandate thing was all theater.
