She really is a fool of the highest order. Then there’s this: Andrews accuses PM of ‘pandering to extremists’.
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has accused Prime Minister Scott Morrison of “pandering to extremists” in the wake of a large protest in Melbourne.
On Saturday, tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets in Melbourne’s CBD in opposition to the state government’s pandemic laws and COVID-19 vaccination policies.
The peaceful protest capped off a week of demonstrations at State Parliament where there were some ugly scenes including the parading of gallows.
Asked about the threats during the week, Mr Morrison said such behaviour had no place in public protest but could understand why some Victorians were frustrated with the state government.
Mr Andrews on Sunday said those comments were offensive to the 5 million Victorians who had received their vaccinations.
What is really a major worry is that our political leaders are such fools, with Andrews and Lambie so brain dead to the issues that matter. How about we factor things like this into the equation: UK STUDY — Vaccinated Adults under 60 are dying at 2X Times the rate of the Unvaccinated….
What a filthy abomination.
Dirty army slag.
That’s it?
That is the ugliness? That is the violence? A symbol? A gimmick?
The fact that the actual people were peaceful (I understand even cheery to be in contact with people who think like them when they have been demonised for months as freaks) – that is viewed as less representative of the protest.
They (Albo, Andrews, Lambie etc) are really desperate to paint themselves as the victims. Seems the arsenal is empty – the best they can hope for is people might feel sorry for them.
I don’t.
Lambie is a moron. But she shows the fury of an idiot who in their idiocy feels endangered and knows their idiocy tends to come back and bite them on the buttocks.
It is why she has seized onto this new idea that the highest imperative for a person is to do whatever others want. To put their judgement ahead of your own.
It might be a small thing for her to ignore the guffawing yammering voice in her head – it has repeatedly duped her into making a fool of herself – but some of us put great store in our wits’ ability to guide us right.
But it is in fact more insidious even. Who decides what ‘everyone else’ wants. Who speaks for all other Australians, or Victorians, or New South Welshmen? Government. Well, they don’t have an agenda, do they?
Most Australians think Lambie is a clown yet she is in a position of influence. So, what should she do? You know. As a ‘bloody’ adult.
It really makes me feel uneasy to hear people telling me of the superior morality of subordinating myself to a collective, every one else of which (in theory) is subjecting themselves so no one has a will.
If I am with a friend and we are deciding dinner, we talk of what we each want and eventually reach an agreement. If instead my mission is to agree to whatever the other person says, and they have their mission as to agree with whatever I say, then we will make no decision. Which is perfect for some officious busybody to come in and tell us both.
Jackie is arguing for this, of course. She doesn’t understand that she is.
Tasmania really has a rare gift for offering up lunatics.
I used to be fairly big on states’ rights against Canbra but the conduct of the mediocrities aka politicians in all states and territories convinces me that the states should be abolished.
Please share the UK report with Andrew Bolt. Guaranteed to disappear straight down the memory hole
Harking back to reports of forced injections of the vax to superstitious people; if true it is almost as stupid as the person authorizing it.
If you decline the vax as you believe it will kill you and it is forced on you then what little Civil behavior you had is gone.
You were just murdered and the only remaining guiding principle is “an eye for an eye”.
And the more eyes the better.
The fact that paralysis rates have increased since the polio vaccine doesn’t stop anybody from taking it – including people at the Cat.
The fact that congenital defect rates have increased since the rubella vaccine doesn’t stop anybody from taking it.
The fact that liver cancer rates have tripled since the hepatitis B vaccine hasn’t stopped anybody from taking it.
The fact that sterility rates have skyrocketed since the mumps vaccine hasn’t stopped anybody from taking it.
The fact that invasive disease rates have increased since the various meningitis vaccines hasn’t prevented anybody from taking it.
When it comes to vaccines, data is, and has always been, irrelevant.
Of the people who question vaccines, only about 1 per cent of us have done so because we actually bothered to look at the (valid) data and realised that none of them had any benefit whatsoever.
Everybody else has to learn the hard way.
Under our current, and indeed the past 20 odd months of unquestionable tyranny, the following quote is easily seen to be so very true;
“Power really is a test of character. In the hands of a person of integrity, it is of tremendous benefit; in the hands of a tyrant, it causes terrible destruction”.
John Maxwell.
Absolutely EVERY so-called premier (deliberate lower case) and their public servant minions fit perfectly into the tyrant camp and, rapidly getting worse.
As for the so-called prime minister (again deliberate lower case) along with his entire cabal, the opposition parties, it is impossible to describe them as anything other than completely out of control tyrants whose only thought and action is for themselves.
Another great quote is by Brian Cagney,
“The first law of leadership is that your foundation is built through integrity, character, and trust”
None of these qualities appear in any of those who somehow believe that they are our superiors and that we must bow to their awesomeness. Indeed none of these qualities have appeared in 99% of the politicians or public servants for some 40 + years.
At 68 + years of age the … (cannot use the words I am thinking in a public place) will not defeat me and so many other like minded people from all ages.
As Socrates so precisely stated;
” He is a man of courage who does not run away, but remains at his post and fights against the enemy”
And I include all you wonderful ladies in the above quote as I am aware that throughout history there has been and continues to be those with courage and integrity to stand tall.
I was hoping that Lambie had just shot herself in the foot with this tirade. The Venn diagram of her supporters and those against the vax would be interesting.
I hope they have long memories as her seat is not up until June 2025.
The sooner we cut the mendicant states off The taxpayer teat the sooner we see an end of such riff raff. They’ll be too busy working. Bludgers are troublemakers.
Andrews is no fool.
He’s contributing to a building narrative that will cast ordinary Australians who happen to disagree with the Green-Left agenda as extremists and potential domestic terrorists.
This is the application of Alinsky’s rules for radicals (who are now the radical Establishment) no. 13:
‘Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. ‘
Obama began this on a large scale in the US & Biden, Pelosi continue it.
Speaking of Pelosi, the foul mafia princess with her facelifts and incontinence aids, does she really believe in socialism?
No, Dictator Dan, what truly “offends” me is you, with your coercion of millions of Victorians into being vaxxed, and your naked legislative grab for untrammeled power with none of that pesky oversight from parliament and no checks and balances.
So you can just f..k off!
Ditto for Lambie, who has lost the plot completely with her unhinged rant.
Anyone who behaves like her has already lost the debate or argument IMO.
It’s long past time ScoMo took the gloves off against Andrews.
The latter has proved once again that he is not and never will be the PM’s friend however much he might wish it were so.
She’s akin to those in the German political establishment in the early 1930s who thought they could manage Hitler to their own ends. If the radical Socialists ever take power in the US, she and her ilk will become irrelevant.
Yes I see what you mean Roger- the corrupt, criminal trash that constitute the old demonrat establishment see the marxist thugs as a means to entrench their power and privilege against everyday, working citizens.
I took my hound in for his annual check up and he was issued with a vaccine passport. I kid you not, it looks just like an Australian passport only with a vet crest and logo. I wonder if this is a none too subtle message?
Changed my covid jab to AZ. The medical receptionist was curious as to why.. he mentioned others have done the same.. told him I wasn’t happy with the shennanigans of pfizer and the FDA re 55 years to release the data wrt the emergency use authorisation in response to an foi request. News to him. I am getting the jab so I can travel to visit family. Son ( + grandson who I have yet to hold) & daughter live on the East coast. Missus family are in Sg + great nephew who I have yet to hold. The jab is mandatory for my work site from Jan 1st else work from home. Somewhat problematic as I am a labrat. Thankfully I am financially OK and work for the mental challenge/ enjoyment rather than for the bank. I feel for those that do not have the choice.
From what I have seen Tasmania considers it deserves the flow of money across Bass Strait, even as they sneer and mock the way the mainland produces the wealth off which they feed.
Bemused… which end does the hound wear the passport?
The disgusting thing about Tasmania is premiers like Robin Gray tried to nurture an industrial base only to be stopped by kooks from the mainland.
It doesn’t say and he wasn’t that impessed. I’m wondering when I’m going to have to get him a dog & bone so that he can show an electronic version.
I don’t think I can take anymore of these vids of our polls (scum) being posted on the Cat . . . it’s making me sick !
He is completely incapable of any such action. Useless is an understatement of his skill set.
Yes. If you look into the history it’s similar to how they used the KKK in the post Civil War Reconstruction era South to terrorise their political enemies and suppress their vote.
there were some ugly scenes including the parading of gallows.
Have they send squads of ninja turtles round to pollies houses to “check” them?
Burst into Parliament and started spaying tear gas and baton rounds ?
Singled out pollies at train stations and slung them head first into the ground?
Banned Pollies from seeing family/friends and fundraisers?
Forced them to choose between a medical procedure and their employment?
If the answer is no then I think “parading a gallows” ranks a long way behind all of those things.
Boo hoo Jacqui

Independent Senator @JacquiLambie reveals One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts leaked her personal mobile number on social media. She’s been bombarded with abuse & threats. She’ll now need to change her number, which means the veterans she supports won’t be able to contact her. pic.twitter.com/Tqwy7wpved
Mole,
I wouldn’t want her support. I don’t need it.
There are enough support services for vets. There are many vets who give their time to help other veterans access them.
The shocks just make it tougher for the genuine ones.
My god she’s a slag. I don’t like doxing but having her phone number leaked?
Pml. Wish I’d known
Did Andrews send police to arrest a mother for a faceache post?
Did Andrews send police to beat up peaceful protestors at random?
Did Andrews send police to king hit and pepper spray a 70 year old woman?
Did Andrews send police to harass and fine people for sitting on a park bench?
Did Andrews send police to pepper spray journos?
Who is actually responsible for authorising and enabling ugly scenes?
Shonks.
Autocorrect is the Devils disciple
Did he?
Should be easy to check – it is on social media.
Surprised veteran groups would have warmed to her – suddenly developing injuries that prevented her being deployed just the day before she was to go.
Maybe she deals more with the admin people who would deal with the devil to get something for the people they represent, and she can be relied upon to storm into offices demanding things because it is the only demographic she can lay claim to with any justification – besides oversexed fishwives.
“reveals One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts leaked her personal mobile number on social media”
If he did then I don’t condone this. However I’m wondering if Lambie condemned the leaking of Craig Kelly’s mobile by Ben Eltham on Twitter a month or two ago?
If they can’t (or won’t) work out who authorised security staff to enforce hotel quarantine, what makes you think anyone will put their hand up for the rest of it?
Andrews has the power to pull back on the States nasty behaviour when it happens but he has doubled down. I don’t care whether he specifically ordered it or not. He owns the whole shitshow and you know it.
Pete of Perth,
Your story and those like it make me so disgusted with the way our country has become an abomination. To say I hate the people that have driven you and others like it to your position would be an understatement.
Not only that, but I can only give likes to purebloods. Sorry mate.
Note that this press piece did not feature adjectives preceding ‘pandemic laws’ and ‘COVID-19 vaccination policies.’
Had the government been a Liberal one, I am confident that the descriptors controversial, divisive, hotly-debated, or even despised, would precede the above-mentioned nouns.
Note also the adjective here:
It is a waste of time demanding press outlets such as The Age (despite being a reformed Victorian, I do not know who owns it) report rather then interpret events. We MUST remember, however, what the majority of the glossed lips of the elite have done to paralyse our society. Without them, and the cowardice of virtually every social, sporting, business, and community leader and organisation, NONE of the damage we now survey would have been enabled. It may be some time before any opportunity for retribution against the glossed lips of the elite becomes available. When it does, however, we owe it to everyone who has been scarred over the last 20+ months, to clench that opportunity, and maintain the pressure of our grip until we are close to losing consciousness ourselves. Retribution must be savage.
I do not have an answer to HOW we might do so. I fear, however, that we will forget what has been done to us, and who did it. We are essentially forgiving, compassionate people.
Do not forget the glossed lips of the elite.
correction: rather THAN interpret events.
Rage distorts the flow.
Ditto. It would surprise me if he did it, but maybe I am just too nice in my expectations.
Even Caesar’s wife had to keep herself above suspicion.

Some people only respond (involuntarily) to chunky bling.
Others are concerned about nail maintenance.
There’s a 70-something woman at my gym who would out-tough NoSco.
Yes, heard of others the same. In order of danger for locally used jabs is Moderna, Pfizer then Astra Zeneca is the slightly less dangerous of the three. Make sure they aspirate the syringe, hit a blood vessel you have 100% guaranteed clotting. They know this as it happened during the testing phase, and was also known in medical literature years prior that an adenovirus based vaccine cases clotting if it enters the circulatory system. They just didn’t bother telling the people administering the jabs.
” I was brought up in believing in responsibility. To look after people who can’t look after themselves”.
One of the first things you learn in a General Rescue course ( i.e. SES) is do not attempt rescue if you are likely to become a casualty in the process. If you aren’t looking after yourself, how can you help other people?

Don’t forget the copper grabbing from behind a bloke who was talking quietly with another copper, picking him up and driving him head first into the concrete floor of a railway station. (Flinders Street??)
Try that in a Rugby League game, and its (at least) out for the season immediately.
That UK data is black and white.
it’s, not its.
There are so many incidents that I suspect that no one has a complete record.
If the organisewrs won’t stop these clowns from carrying Gallows to a March, then perhaps they aren’t fair dinkum themselves.
That’s my take, and plenty of other, i’d be guessing.
I fear, however, that we will forget what has been done to us, and who did it. We are essentially forgiving, compassionate people.
Muddy, I think Australians are only forgiving and compassionate when they should be. But these times are not normal. I can’t see anyone who has been adversely affected by lockdowns, the loss of income for weeks/months, missed family gatherings and being absent from relative’s sick beds or funerals, had their businesses forcibly closed and the borders locked, and been made to take a vaccine, accept QR codes and vaccine passports, forgetting that all of these impositions have been forced on them by their own governments.
While it could be argued that early on no-one in government knew where this was ultimately leading and so a definite course of action possibly was necessary, some of the most draconian of measures continued well past those initial worries: it’s been many months since the population realised that most of this stuff was well over the top. But this stuff and more has continued on regardless – it doesn’t help the people when their government and bureaucracy hasn’t suffered equally with them.
Over the weekend I watched some of the footage from the marches. The Melbourne one had some very good speakers who returned quite often to remembering what’s been done to the people and encouraging the audience not to forget it.
While I’m in no way suggesting that this current situation is equivalent to the war damage wrought on the nation, but a couple of generations ago Australians didn’t forget (or forgive) what the Japanese did to our POWs. So there are limits to our compassion and so far our national “forgettery” remains shut.
Great reply Bar Beach Swimmer ?
I used to think so too but not now the only reason any of this is happening is because we have a lantern-jawed dolt as a Prime Minister whose hubristic pride and narcissism created the unconstitutional, unprecedented and uncalled for National Gabinetto (Italian for toilet) bringing into the national decision-making three Labor Premiers , a Marshmallow and a corrupt hag – and of course given that it was a gabinetto, the premiers immediately mooned the supine dolt. Let’s Go ScoMo!
Andrews is playing to his normal rule book.
1. Bring in an obscene legislation ‘for safety’ reasons. A common excuse by Union thugs to do what they want.
2. If there is bad polling then wind back some minor measures and there you go I listened to you all better now.
3. Protesters are easy to take on. Call them extremists, not representative, a danger to the community … where possible get your media lackies to take photos of the most extreme protestors and hang that a round the neck of the crowd. If they had not used gallows for this purpose they would have found offense in signs ,T-shirts’, flags … any manner of protest paraphernalia. So don’t think getting rid of the gallows would have made the protest ‘acceptable’.
I am still processing Melbourne and Australian msm acting to ignore the size of last Saturday Freedom March, to ignore the cross section of people attending , to ignore what may have driven people to take to the streets.
Let’s Go Brandan!

It looked really bad in terms of potential trauma from my viewing. I hope the copper has been sorted out?

There was a photo of the ‘gallows’. To me it looked like a rope with two nooses tied at each end and chucked over a tree branch.
Do you have a better picture – one that shows a bit of construction perhaps?

I think I saw reference to an “investigation” of the copper a couple of days later, then it completely disappeared. Nothing at all about the bloke thrown on his head.

That man is a genius – wish we had someone of his caliber on the right in Australia!
Irony. Lambie’s theme is precisely aligned with the “Liberty Quote” from the great Theodore Dalrymple at the top of this blog. That is, people want liberty but don’t want responsibility. Lambie said people are totally free to decide whether they are jabbed. If they choose not, they have to accept consequences: that is, to accept that the majority don’t want to be exposed to their risk.
She also made the valid point that Hanson and Roberts are in a money-making venture and are simply trawling for votes they can take to the (electoral funding) bank.
You don’t have a fucking clue what you’re on about and nor does that vile drug addicted alcoholic slag lambie.
Fuck off, you ignorant wanker.
“She also made the valid point that Hanson and Roberts are in a money-making venture and are simply trawling for votes they can take to the (electoral funding) bank.”
And Lambie’s not?
Fuck off troll.
Quite likely, Indolent. But that does not negate his total uselessness in any way.
I listened to that interview in the car today, Ron De Santis is a leader, fearless and forthright in his love of country and in his desire to see the people of his state thrive and flourish.
Rabz, Cassie: charmed. You really should give Dalrymple a go.
Brilliant, inspiring and totally down to earth.
Hey Rev, lauding the screeching Lambie…real classy! I’ve been reading Dalrymple for years. You clearly have not.
LOL.
