Seems to me the best thing politicians should do is nothing.
We aren’t going to panic about every mutation, the worried we’ll can do whatever they want without government hand holding.
Gideon says
First, you only posted the title of a video I posted, without so much as hint that’s what it was.
Secondly, you did so in order to disagree with me and completely avoid the point made in the video clip.
Third, the point made in the video was that our Politicians are effectively dictatorial autocrats in that they have and use the power to use, abuse & change the power of the courts in order to keep pushing through a Global Agenda against the will of the people.
Or to make it simple for the stupid, Australia’s Courts can’t protect Australians from the Globalist’s Global Agenda that our Political System is committed to.

An excellent reminder for all the Dads out there – never, ever give your kid the keys to the V8.
The words that keep coming back to me were uttered by Chuck Schumer:
If we win Georgia, we’ll change America.
They “won” the senate run-off election just like they “won” many states.
How it was done is gradually emerging. Whether the half-terms and 2024 can be done properly is the burning question. It’s still a year until the next big round, and a lot of damage has been done this year.
STH Africa medical association, Dr who first noted it, STH African epidemiologists saying Omicron is a mild mild virus. Are the media listening? Of course not because a) they are half-wits b) it causes people to listen to them c) media companies almost certainly recipients of largesse of the big global players in this gigantic con job.
It’s constant shallow, bitter, nasty signalling to the domineering group, like this, that leads to a deadly thinning of contributors to open, public forums.
There was no end of posts about Xi being the reason for skipping “Xi” in the Greek alphabet of Covid Variant names, and I think they’re all funny own goals because of the way people’s brains work, i.e. I’m not the only one who ‘sees’ Omicron but ‘reads’ OmniCon; dyslexia, automatically changing unfamiliar letter patterns to familiar sounds etc. being some of the ways that happens.
In my case, I was a latch key kid from a young age who came home from primary school to my immigrant mother’s phonetically spelled notes, so I grew up automatically reading what new or uncommon words looked like they were intended to mean.
Interestingly, none of my school mates could read the phonetic notes. They didn’t fit the letter patterns they were taught, so they couldn’t see any meaning in words that broke the pattern rules.
Omicron = GTA strain.
Aww shit, here we go again.
What truth drug had Nick Coatworth taken?
He just spoke on Ch9 suggesting that this virus is mild, not a worry, and- wait for it – don’t rush out & get a booster! As if that were not enough he suggested it may be a blessing because it will replace the more severe Delta virus!
With every passing day we become more of an international butt of jokes.
The “powers that be” will never over-react to the new Wuhan Flu variant, will they?
The Barbarians-Manu Samoa Rugby clash at Twickenham was called off 90 minutes before scheduled kick-off. Six members of the wider Barbarians squad – including two staff members – tested positive for Covid, including three Wallabies. The game was cancelled espite the Baa Baas saying they had 23 fit players ready for the clash who all tested negative on the morning of the game. (The Australian)
And so it begins again. Just as people have emerged from the state imposed fog of isolation and misery, their masters have decided to imprison them again.
You hear it in the rhetoric, the squealy voices of media drongos. Morrison is now telling us not to be too concerned. We know what that means.
Meanwhile, rickw is desperately trying to catch the thing from his family. Try harder rick!
Sorry to state he bloody obvious but our pollimuppetts and their presstitutes don’t work for us, they work for foreign interests. We just pay for it. These foreign interests would be the CCP, The UN and multinational corporations.
“Morrison is now telling us not to be too concerned. We know what that means.”
Indeed, who could forget….”two weeks to flatten the curve” and “we’re all in this together”.
The truth is that we’re twenty months in and we’re not all in this together……..are we?

Gutless windbag politicians and “15 minutes of fame” ‘ers will be lining up to get on the train.

The Oz media column today today is pretty decent.
Lead story is on Nina Funnell (no Nina, no Grace Tame).
I don’t wonder why Tame ran dead on going after the promoters of the gag laws (a couple of key ALP members) because she’s hard left.
But I don’t know why Funnell hasn’t gone after them.
Named & shamed them and asked why they even thought up the gag laws that protect the rock spiders.
Victoria: five days to flatten the bill!
Actually, the one cross-bencher that responded to my email (with a form letter, but that’s understandable given what his inbox must look like) mentioned that the bill shall likely pass or fail on the Thursday or possibly even Tuesday of this week. Wonder what Dan has been trying on with those MPs? Hopefully they favour principle over inducements.
Even better, if the bill fails and we then know all measures end in December (yay! Victorians finally ahead!) shall anyone bother to enforce anything between now and then?
The Ghislaine Maxwell Trial Begins Tomorrow, But The Judge May Be Compromised; and there’ll be a media blackout because, get this, the Judge, a biden appointed ugly leso, says that certain details of the case are too ‘impure and sensational’ for the public to hear, so she will be keeping Maxwell’s secrets…
Should the new mutation prove to be mild and innocuous, isn’t it in people’s best interests to get it and be done with it?

“Grace Tame not served by media ‘pedestal’
NICK TABAKOFF
As Grace Tame’s term as Australian of the Year enters its last months, it has been hard to miss her wherever you look in the media, from The Project to virtually any show on the ABC. The media whirlwind that has pursued Tame throughout 2021 reached its natural zenith in last Monday’s Australian Story.
But a few hours before Tame’s Australian Story screened, journalist and survivor advocate Nina Funnell, the founder of the #LetHerSpeak campaign that first launched Tame into the national spotlight, published a pointed series of tweets clearly timed to coincide with the flagship ABC show.
In a “clarification to media”, Funnell made it clear while she had no beef with the Australian of the Year herself, she was upset with continued reporting that presented Tame as the architect of the campaign.
“LetHerSpeak was not a campaign which Grace Tame ran & I reported on,” Funnell tweeted. “I created & ran it for 4 years, including the media, fundraising, legal & political strategy. I organised Grace’s legal work & that of another 17 survivors who Grace doesn’t know.”
Funnell, who won last year’s public service journalism Walkley Award for founding #LetHerSpeak, went on to highlight her pivotal point. It is, she says, that the media created a perception the successful campaign to remove gag laws to allow sex abuse victims to identify themselves was “an individualistic campaign” by Tame alone, and “not a collectivist one” that had involved Funnell herself and 17 other sex abuse survivors.
“Grace has always been very clear she doesn’t want 2 take credit 4 anyone elses (sic) work,” Funnell posted. “Likewise, I want her courage in fronting the campaign & her bravery in allowing us to take her case to court, to always be recognised, valued & celebrated. When media misreport they hurt us both.”
When Diary asked Funnell last week what her clarifying words were about, she was equally forthright.
“None of this is Grace’s fault, but what was a long campaign involving a complex collaboration between News Corp, a law firm in Marque Lawyers, myself as the campaign leader and two survivor organisations has been simplified down to one individual who was featured in the campaign,” she said. “Unfortunately, that has erased or minimised the contributions of the 17 other survivors who we performed legal work for in order to help them to say their own name. And that has re-traumatised them.”
Funnell blames the media’s reporting of the issue, which she said erased the other survivors apart from Tame. “The media keep wanting to simplify the narrative to a poster girl for the issue and a simple sound bite,” she says. “But when you put individual women on a pedestal, you’re putting far too much pressure on their shoulders, by expecting them to fix a society-wide ill.
“We’re also doing a disservice to future activism, to misleadingly suggest that law reform is achieved by a lone individual.

“There have been numerous news reports this year, particularly by the ABC, that misrepresented it as ‘Grace Tame’s #LetHerSpeak campaign’, as opposed to a campaign that involved numerous survivors including Grace Tame.”
Funnell, who has had extensive contact with Tame throughout the campaign, says the media’s simplification to make her the “poster girl” for the issue has not served anyone, least of all Tame.
“Grace didn’t want to be responsible to field questions about the campaign,” she says. “She is fully aware that she wasn’t the architect of the campaign – instead, she featured in it and did so very courageously. Grace is as perplexed and uncomfortable with this as I am. And she has never sought to take credit for my work.”
I’ll simplify the above…….despite the “nice” words from Funnell…..Funnell is jealous of Tame and angry with Tame for hogging the limelight!
I just love it when chickens from home to roost and the chicken eat the maggots.
I can’t stop laughing. Nice story to read on a Monday morning!
What with large anti-vaxx mandate/anti-lockdown protests occurring around the world and with dozens and dozens of elite sportsmen and women filmed collapsing with heart problems, the omicron variant couldn’t have come at a better time.
But it’s a pity it hasn’t claimed any lives yet.
the south African doctor speaks. Question though why are they going to the doctor, they must have some symptoms of something?
The Fully Vaccinated are the carriers of the new Omicron Covid variant to Australia.
The funny thing about that is Bill Cosby was railroaded for his Pound Cake speech and tried twice for the same crime.
Harvey Weinstein was convicted even though NYC PD detectives were caught telling his accusers to delete messages off their phones.
…yet Ghislaine is basically tried in secret, the security footage from Epstein’s prison goes missing and the FBI can’t find Hunter’s laptop but they can harrass you for finding it.
Justice is as blind as the goddess Diana.
Thought for the morning .. with this week’s, new, variant of BAT FLU .. OMNICRON .. now loose in OZ why is the media not bemoaning the fact that UNCLEAN folk can’t fly sooooo the , bloody, thing must have arrived with CLEAN folk ..
WE IS ALL IN THIS TOGETHER, except .. LOL!
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!
When will the media start blaming the Fully Vax’d for bringing Omicron Covid variant to Australia??????????
I want compensation for vaxtard stupidity.
Let me guess – Nonna Spigot can handle the pressure though?
Ah, yes, but is that the double fully vaxxed, or the 2 + 1s, or…….
This simply PROVES that you CANNOT vax your way out of a corona virus. It mutates too rapidly.
The absolute stupidity of people is mind boggling.
From the old thread which expired at some strange hour.
Nurses quitting in droves.
Guess which reason is not mentioned.
“But I don’t know why Funnell hasn’t gone after them.
Named & shamed them and asked why they even thought up the gag laws that protect the rock spiders.”
Funnell is also of the left….she won’t go after them lest it chip away at the narrative. Funnell led the pile on last year of Bettina Arndt after Arndt was awarded the Australia Day gong. Funnell is no different to Tame…both are nasty vindictive females.
So, seems on this site, all the Vaxtards are ignoring the FACT that they brought Omicron into the country.
For shame. You selfish people only wanted to travel.
Re: Weinstein
The women were not charged with soliciting, but he was charged with sex trafficking.
The NY State courts equated giving sexual favours to get bit parts in film with actual abduction and modern day slavery & being raped every day.
I’ve seen no reporting of this story anywhere except this which I saw last week:
The silent plague of spousal abuse – inflicted by women (23 Nov)
Perhaps Grace and Nina could support the poor blokes who are suffering silently too. It happens here just as much.
No jab, no job.
He was only a couple of years ahead of the Australian government.
This is what gets me about those telling everyone to move to the US, where they still have a Constitution & Bill of Rights.
A Constitution & Bill of Rights as crippled & broken as ‘the people’s protections’ in any Western Nation in this UN & EU battered age.
The Baddies didn’t only “fortify” ‘Team Joe’ into power over ‘Team Trump’, but bragged about all those cheats they got caught cheating, and are not only unrepentant but promise to do even more & ‘better’ of the same, to eventually take total control.
Yet despite all that, despite all the ‘checks & balances’ that failed to check runaway violent corruption or balance it with just redress, we still have the old Pro-Globalist Team Open Borders mob (the same names that admonish Muslims for not staying in & fighting for their countries), actively encouraging Australians to run away from their country rather than stay & fight for it, and to gambol against the corner of the US they run to being overrun by the same Globalists who made Detroit, San Francisco, Los Angels, Portland and countless other once prime locations, the dystopian hell holes they are today.
You forgot Minneapolis/St Paul.

The Rittenhouse decision was a huge white pill that was force fed to me, just as we’ve been force fed many red and black pills in recent years.
The Victorian Liberals were talking tough on the last mail out and hopefully they understand the magnitude of the sentiment demonstrated on Saturday. It may be wise to not underestimate their ability to snatch defeat from victory, however.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to finish counting how many chickens I’ll have once those eggs in the fridge hatch. :-/
Weinstein was charged with sex trafficking (amongst other things), the ladies were not even charged with solicitation. The police encouraged complainants to destroy evidence.
I think my hyperbole is justified.
Now remember that legal genius AG Speakman has “simplified” consent laws in NSW.
More absurdities than Kafka ever imagine.
Not sure if this is significant but worth a ponder ..
OMNICRON is an anagram of MORONIC .. LOL!
The possibly mild omicron variant might just put the unvaxxed in the box seat.
No force fed bat soup and a mild version for enhanced long term immunity.
Much ironing.
Who went to the Sydney march on Saturday?
Skah ‘contributor’ and Indiana Jones wannabe Christopher Ware doing his best to gin up the fear porn, in the face of a multitude of South Efrican proper quacks saying ‘nothing to see here’ with the latest.
Too soon to tell whether this will be a ferocious sentient death beast, he says, and that includes South Africans, he says. Next sentence : ‘It’s already here’. Also used the word ‘onslaught’. Condescending twat.
He finishes with some advertorial for a third booster shot. Ah ha hahahaha.

… MS&Social Media has well & truly readied us to go with “OmNi” instead of “Omi”, after which the “Con” (that’s attached to every personal interest anyone’s had that’s ever had Conventions), just rolls off the tongue.
Oh I know, in the big scheme of things it’s a tiny little nothing … which means you best watch out for those who think it’s worth insulting someone over.
After all, NLP, Hypnosis, Gaslighting & other mindfuckeries that ‘Movers & Shakers’ of Globalist Groups are taught to use (on the sly, even against their nearest & dearest), are not ‘little nothings’ at all.
Start at sinister and work your way further into devilish.
This is what gets me about those telling everyone to move to the US, where they still have a Constitution & Bill of Rights.
The 2A is pretty handy depending on where you live.
Law enforcement is pretty selective on knocking on doors at random.

“…we still have the old Pro-Globalist Team Open Borders mob…”
Unless you are 17 and then you can’t even cross a state line to get a weapon and defend your community.
Oh, or if you are a real refugee from Haiti – you don’t count either.
But otherwise, no matter where you are from in the world, no matter if you are vaxxed or not, not matter if you test positive for covid or not, you can illegally enter the US at the Mexican border and get flown around the country to where we might need you to vote.
Of course, if you try to enter legally, none of that applies and you must be
doubletriplequadruple vaxed and test negative before you leave, and test negative when you get there, and self-isolate for 14 days at your expense.Because we’re all in this together, right? Because it’s to keep you safe, see? For your own good, innit?
Biden caught again maskless when he thinks no one can see him.

Coatsworth has been about the only medical opinion worth anything during these last 2 years.
I’d rather be wrong on a few assumptions or facts here or there than be wrong philosophically.
I have to back my boy Tim.
“Tim Pool & Claire Lehmann do not like each other.”
I know nothing of their tiff, but will side with Tim anyway.
When the left accuse you of being “far right” and the right accuse of being “far left” (but not at the same time), you must be doing something right – and you’re probably being “normal” and “sensible”. When the “side” you take depends on facts rather than tribe, I’m inclined to at least listen to what you have to say.
“Tim Pool & Claire Lehmann do not like each other.”
I don’t think much of Lehmann.
Doubtless Anna the Munificent’s PR team will be anthropomorphising it
into some sort of Lecteresque soul stealer stalking the unpricked.
Lehmann is desperate for people to like her.
Tim couldn’t give a fuck.
Tells you all you need to know.
“Lehmann is desperate for people to like her.
Tim couldn’t give a fuck.
Tells you all you need to know.”
Tim has a bigger audience the CNN – not that that is such a big deal, but anyway…
More people watch gamers live streams in the US than watch CNN prime time.
Also very AGAINST enjabbening anyone under 16
Nice to see her get a clip over the ear from a psychologist for terrorising children with her rhetoric.
Which is why he’s the subject of a cancel campaign led by 24 academics who’ve filed complaints against him with his employer the ANU and the Royal Australian College of Physicians.
Christ . . . Didn’t know that ?
Today I learned that Chifley held a referendum on controlled rents & property prices.
Wow.
What a bullet to dodge.
Chifley really was a Stalinist in sheeps clothing.
I know so little of Australian history.
Yeah we all get the Pro-Gun arguments, to the point where there are now many more Constitutional Carry States that there were not long ago.
That’s another reason the Globalist Mobsters are ramping up their Political Power Grabbing efforts, such as moving into strategically important areas for more effective “fortifying” of elections.
For instance, while Texas is still considered a State Of Freedom, Austin has pretty well already fallen to the Dems and as for their Border, they aren’t allowed to even try to stop the flow invaders shipped in from all over the world.
Now people got excited & hopeful over Rittenhouse being found Not Guilty but it was no more than a distraction bone thrown out to quiet the guard dogs of the US ‘Justice’ System.
Wait and see how much more injustice is championed by America’s Power Brokers for Maxwell & her/their circles.
He’d love 2021.
Switzerland: Voters Back Vaccine Passports in National Referendum (28 Nov)
Yep, set things up just right and you can get full-on fascism approved even by the Swiss.
Reported in the AFR last month.
It seems the RACP has declined to pursue the matter but ANU’s commitment to academic free speech is being tested. But the message is clear: publicly dissent from the approved narrative and you will be targeted. The identity of the 24 academics has not been made public.
Gruyere-eating surrender monkeys.
Having said… knowing that 38% of the peeps don’t support the new yoke around their necks will be an interesting bit of frisson on the piste.
The concept of rent controls is such a good example of how dumbed down the population has become.
If you asked the question “do you think rent controls are a good thing” I reckon people would be shocked regarding how many punters would say yes.
I’d put it at 75%.
At least.
Idiots.
special COVID-19 certificates under which only people who have been vaccinated, recovered or tested negative
Ok, it looks less than fully retarded.
“Recovered” is the interesting bit. Will it encourage (ahem hem) bug-catching? Is a single positive antibody test enough to write the certificate forever? Will new variants mean the old cards obsolete and a new certificate needing issue?
Will the Botswana Gnu strain- which is definitely without doubt COVID-19 but also completely new and terrifying with a soon-to-come revised Pfizer jab protocol to match- put everything back to square one?
Thanks, Roger. I didn’t know that.
Leftism isn’t just a mental illness, but a tribe of vicious feral attack dogs determined to do evil whatever it takes.
Fact check: The state of Texas has always been, until recently, a Democrat stronghold. There have been far more Democrat governors than GOP governors.

KD – thanks for the thoughtful response last night.
Daughter’s dream: sell up everything here and buy ticket to Mexico. Cross border and move to small town. Get prepped and wait for the reckoning. She reasons that only people with guns will be able to resist.

To his credit, Tudge has publicly backed Coatsworth.
“Which is why he’s the subject of a cancel campaign led by 24 academics who’ve filed complaints against him with his employer the ANU and the Royal Australian College of Physicians.”
Thanks Roger, disturbing. Just like Gigi Foster who regularly appears on Sky News. Gigi is an academic at the University of NSW (in economics), and she’s consistently questioned, queried and critiqued lockdowns and the whole Covid fear hysteria. Gigi has also been the subject of a cancel campaign.
Great world we live in.

Who ‘d thunk it?
I think I’ll let Orson Welles field this one.
Here was I, thinking I knew as much about Australian history as anyone, and that’s the first I heard of that. FWIW, the major reason the Liberals won the 1949 election was that the Labor party was seen as trying to keep wartime measures for too long.
New South Wales once had rent control….I think it was abolished in the 1970s…by Wran(?).
FWIW, the Chifley Government proposed a scheme to bring back wartime petrol rationing.
Yes, but the Liberals were happy to keep the “wartime emergency” income tax powers. Rhetoric aside, they believed in the centralisation of power in Canberra just as much as Labor.
Yes, people do that, then the same people who infect the cities with Globalist poison, move in on the people who believed they could escape into the country.
Plus the US always has that whole, freezing in the snow, being blown away in tornadoes, frying in the heat, dealing with MS13 & other Cartel sent & owned invaders, crocs, bears, coyotes, rabies, Clintons, Bidens, Obamas, Pelosis & the list of countless other deadly dangerous, poisonous creatures and killers goes on, that are bad enough in serviced cities, and can play with you like a cat with a mouse when you go out on your own, where those who can hear you scream are too busy trying to survive themselves …
Point is, there is nowhere to run away to from the Globalists.
Especially NOT the United States.
The Globalists have to be defeated, everywhere.

I thought that might get a wry smile. What a tangled web we weave …
Lehmann’s arc this past two years has been interesting. Looks to me she’s going to run a ‘pox on both their houses’ gambit.
It is probably expecting too much for the AOTY committee to sit down and examine how they were played in Nina’s campaign.
Anti vaxxers should be delighted a couple of returning Australian have brought their asymptomatic omicron with them, unfortunately as they are locked up somewhere with the rest of the flight either in hotel quarantine or isolation it doesn’t seem like it’ll be getting the opportunity to rip just yet.
All that matters atm is that various premiers don’t lose their blobs and 8 crossbenchers stand firm.
And of that 75%, 99.99% would blame their “greedy” landlord
for the state of their rent controlled apartment building.
Sorry Dover, I accidentally reported srr’s comment at 1006. Please ignore.

Dr Coetzee interview

Where’s a bleedin’ yank when you need them?
Am I right in assuming eastern Washington/ Idaho is okay?
I find a town like Coeur d’Alene fascinating.
We could have these in Australia, but trees & Boorolong Frogs matter more than people.”
___________________
Yes Dot we not only could, but will.
We have nearly the same area as the US with less than a tenth of the population.
Our deserts, wetlands, snowfields, cyclone spots etc. aren’t as bad as America’s where they still make cities for millions.
We haven’t ruined & poisoned it everywhere with 100’s of years of worlds worst practices.
We have a super clean, super rich in everything, US sized, natural mote girded wonder land, ready and waiting for modern, clean, super efficient high tech development, such as annual monsoonal dumps of clean water being channelled and directed into dams instead of being allowed to being allowed to piss, unused into the sea, after destroying all in it’s path instead of watering it with wise, new tech management.
If a tenth of American Pioneer’s efforts were put into developing Australia with half the technology currently available to us, in a generation we’d make the US look like ‘backward’ little old England looked to WW2 soldiers, except with more natural beauty than England because we have the tech to both manage floods & make deserts bloom.

comments?
I learnt yesterday from watching an interview with the man himself, that John Cleese has pretty much had his name mis-pronounced since dot. Supposed to rhyme with “cheese” he says.
Who knew?
Update:
Little Bloke: (unvaxxed) 99%
Missus: (2XPfizer) crook, a lot of chest pain and discomfort, she was so alarmed at how her chest felt last night they advised to call an ambulance. Oxygen level check came back ok, so it’s just pain and heavinesses, not a reduction in function.
Me: (unvaxxed), continuing with vitamins and ivermectin, 99%.
So apparently you’ll be getting different ‘jabs’ for each variant for the rest of your life.
The definition of immunity and a successful vaccine.
Here’s a facet of the Coatsworth cancel campaign mentioned above that reveals how stuffed the precious litle world of Australian academics is:
Coatsworth has been critical of OzSAGE, the Australian Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies, a self-appointed group of academics set up on the model of the UK’s SAGE to advise governments on covid, for being overly cautious in their modelling and the recommendations based on it.
The VC of ANU (Coatsworth’s employer), Brian Schmidt, is a member of OzSAGE.*
It is not known if any of the 24 academics who co-signed the complaint against Coatsworth are.
* For the record, I’m not questioning Schmidt’s integrity. But I am intrigued about his expertise on covid given that he’s an astrophysicist.
Reality:
The injected prophylactic drugs that they are falsely calling ‘vaccines’ only suppress some symptoms, offer no immunity, and only do so for targeted narrow individual ‘strains’.
In order for the entire system to ‘work’ as advertised, everyone will be getting many ‘jabs’ a year of these drugs forever, and the virus will continue to mutate in weird and wonderful ways as it is allowed to run unchecked through society. With governing elites playing whack-a-mole against our lives and liberties attempting to suppress it artificially.
All this can be prevented by simply saying two words: natural immunity.
Nobody has the right to sell my immune system, nobody has the right to ban me from using it.
Where’d you score the Vitamin I?
What truth drug had Nick Coatworth taken?
Maybe he’s worried about the noose at Nuremburg 2.0? Could even be he has a conscience.
As for the ANU academaics, I realised long ago that most of them are as honest as used car salesmen and politicians.
The natural order of things, every couple of years for 10,000 years is people to catch a respiratory virus, develop broad natural immunity to it and its many mutations and variants and within a year or two ‘herd immunity’ would be built up and the virus will mutate downwards and dissipate.
Modern methods was to let that happen and protect old and sick people using policy and expensive drugs and experimental techniques and isolation and burdensome sanitisation around them.
Clown hell world method is to create a vast technological authoritarian state, ban people from getting the virus at all, ban us from developing natural immunity, and order the entire population of the world to become dependent on proprietary for-profit drugs that literally only treat the symptom and not the disease, for the rest of our lives.
Where’d you score the Vitamin I?
Horseland.
Eraquell, tastes like bran but gritty. 2.5 teaspoons a day per suggestion from flyingduk.
Maybe he’s worried about the noose at Nuremburg 2.0?
This needs to be heavily promoted. Make fucking Andrews and Sutton think about spending the rest of their fucking miserable lives in prison, at best.
Karvelas must be seen as a bit of a rising star at the ALBC. A step up from writing filler at Teh Paywallian.
Me….There is just so much overwhelming evidence this is a globalist/commo take over that to keep saying it’s about domestic party politics and that our pollies are just weak and stupid is to be purposefully ignorant and in denial.
Choo choo man……………………………………..Struth can’t say anything because he’s doing nothing! ner ner.
How does choo choo man know this, while living as a prisoner of another country called WA?
Besides still trying to get those who refuse to accept reality to do so for everyone’s benefit, (incredibly frustrating as it has been for the last two years , which admittedly has worn my patience and made me lose a great deal of respect for many), I am doing many things to fight this in the real world.
As I said before, there are more people on twitter that better understand what’s going on, compared to the deluded here, and just off hand, more people in my own small town.
Certain people here need to come clean about their stupidity and stubborn refusal to accept they lost the plot through fear and their common sense was lost overnight.
But the big mouths calling all and sundry conspiracy theorists when in fact they were just people speaking a truth the big mouths did not want to here, can now know that by dismissing me and those with the same message comes at a cost.
Imagine if all had the common sense to post saying the jab is dangerous and untested and not to take it.
If the likes of Notafan didn’t scream in hysterics about Italy’s complete bullshit figures, and London’s and New york’s as if they were real.
If people just entertained the idea that 190 countries all doing nearly exactly the same thing with exactly the same slogans, which was open for all to see, and people didn’t knock those who told about Davos, Greg Hunt’s role and all of the overwhelming evidence as to what the plans are………..would Frank have taken the jab?
I hope the useless bastard is still alive, but if he isn’t….ask yourself, how much of your scoffing at what obviously was the reality of the situation, contribute to him feeling comfortable enough in his own delusion to take it?
No one can deny I’ve pleaded with everyone here, including Frank, not to take it.
We on the right are individualists.
We want freedom for every individual.
With that, every individual has responsibilities.
Every single individual.
This is serious shit, and we are at war with those that wish to kill us.
Now tell me, that last sentence, who feels the need to scoff at it?
Think about your responsibility to your fellow man before you do.
Because Frank’s death is not and never will be on my shoulders.
Nor will the government pulling people into concentration camps as is now happening.
Complying, each and every individual doing so, has to take part responsibility for what happens.
But also in speaking obvious denialist bullshit, muddying the waters of clear and solid thinking.
Best laugh I’ve had for ages.
The conspiracists discuss conspiracy.
Virginia Trioli interviewing Van Badham about QAnon and she claims to know them well as she went “under cover”.
Too much material to work with.
Horseland
Is that on the PBS?
Has anyone anywhere in the world explained what exactly their end game is with this new way of dealing with this?
They clearly tell us that these ‘vaccines’ don’t provide ongoing immunity, nor do they stop transmission, nor do they deal with mutations. And they require ‘jabs’ every six months to keep working (which is also a lie – the reality is boosters are needed every 3+ months but they can’t sell that yet).
So what exactly is the plan? Because surely it’s not “you must become drug dependent junkies for the rest of your miserable lives living in an artificial technical medical tyranny for a virus that 198/200 of you will recover from with little more than a runny nose and sore throat”.
I suspect their hope is that technology magically comes to their rescue with an actual vaccine before everyone wakes up that these fake ‘vaccines’ and the entire ‘plan’ that they built them on is a complete failure, even a lie from the very beginning. And the reality is they actually have no plan to make this all end.
Modern methods was to let that happen and protect old and sick people using policy and expensive drugs and experimental techniques and isolation and burdensome sanitisation around them.
I was contemplating whether societies separation of the elderly from the young has in fact made them more vulnerable. The little ones are such effective and efficient carriers of everything, in the past Grandma and Grandpa would have been getting a regular infusion of whatever was circulating, now, when they do finally get it, it’s after a very long period of no exposure. As an example, little bloke turned up to Christmas last year slightly snotty, this knocked my sisters partner for six because he has virtually no regular exposure to the little germ balls.

Na, but they do have a membership discount program!
Frank’s dead? Has anyone told Roger Moore?
Has anyone anywhere in the world explained what exactly their end game is with this new way of dealing with this?
More money & power for those who already have it.
The offer of money & power for those who don’t have it but think they’ll be given both if they don’t dissent.
Nobody has the right to sell my immune system, nobody has the right to ban me from using it.
Classic!
I’ll be using that if you don’t mind.
Someone had a lot of fun pulling her leg.
That’s worth knowing. Never know when you might need to pick up a new whip and bridle.

Soft, Joe Rogan soft.
Roly Poly stand in for the Dapto Dogs Caller:
Geez those imbecilic Covid Cowards get nasty when you call them names.
I think this had come to be generally accepted prior to covid, when there were moves in the sector to encourage kids to visit nursing homes by establishing common areas with playgrounds, visits from school children and so on. Good for residents’ mental health and also their immune systems.
Just on this.
We have targeted our local rep here, and he don’t like it.
As it should be.
Our local weekly rally we told people to write letters to him, but also to drop in and see him and give him a piece of their minds.
He’s clearly rattled as he should be.
Smug Labor arsehole , a real piece of work.
One of the main organisers who is a big boy, (owns a gym he won’t be closing to the unjabbed) booked into see him but got accosted and screamed at by the local rep…Bruce Saunders, before he got into the office.
Typical left wing mind set, he screamed at the Gym owner that he was the cause of all tha aggressive behaviour toward him and his staff.
Apparently no one would be angry with him if Chris, the Gym owner hadn’t talked them into it.
Delusional and shows how dumb the left think the sheeple are.
Go into their offices, letters do nothing.
Go into their offices.
We also marched the protest out to the front of his office and we are at him next week as well.
They tell me only thirty percent of people are vaxxed here.
We are famous, again:

Pfft. Its a lot of fun firing off all this rhetoric, but if I go out to the back shed and load out for war I would find myself the only girl dressed for the ball.
The idiot level of public debate is fueled by I dont know what, but it makes it more likely some of us are going to get it way wrong and end up driving our Mr Whippy vans into a crowd of actually innocent evil clowns.
After Swine Flu 2009, the WHO and all signatory countries carefully built in put in place a vast ‘pandemic readiness and response’ system.
Locally in Australia it looks like things like the Biosecurity Act 2015, etc.
That system involves mass surveillance of respiratory diseases in all countries down to the micro level, (contact tracing, PCR testing), modelling, ‘triggers’ for events, vaccination policy, travel policies, mandatory reporting to the WHO – the list is endless.
We signed up to our final bit of it in 2019.
This is that system in operation for the first time ever. They builders of the system – hundreds of thousands of people all over the world from WHO functionairies to public health officials and national policy makers, say it’s working perfectly.
Normal people look at it and say it’s completely out of control.
Roger, it seems that so many of these bodies that plague us are self-appointed. I’d cite the WEF as a prime example, and currently the most dangerous.
As an astrophysicist, as a university-employed scientist, he has appropriate scientific training and arguably the intellectual discipline, and also has access to ALL the information, research, papers etc available on any subject he wishes to pursue.
Given the information we “normies” out here in ordinary people land have been able to access to read, watch, listen to and consider from credentialed experts and leaders in the fields of immunology, epidemiology, cardiac and other medical fields who have been warning of the dangers around these jabs, Coatsworth is in an even better position to know and explain.
Sensible people and politicians, “health” bureaucrats etc would be taking the time to listen to him, not having hissy fits and trying to cancel him.
Hmm. You need to be stoic and accept the white pills when they come.
Bugger, got the astrophysicist wrong.
By the same token, Schmidt should be able to his research and see what Coatsworth does.
Yes. The dumb left are completely entitled to the obedience that WUFLU bought them, and to wipe out the innocent coffee vendors for their own aggrandisement.
What you have said here shows that they are seriously failing to cope in their little jerk circles.
Project help needed:
I had had brought the little bloke an RC model destroyer that he had been using on the dam. A while ago I brought a second one and a set of different TX / RX transmitter crystals so we could run them together.
We started this project yesterday, opened the hand controller and replaced the TX crystal. All good. Open up the boat and it doesn’t have a RX crystal but rather an inductor. We played around with the inductor, but it seems that the boat receiver receives a very broad band of signals (27 MHz). Basically we couldn’t control the boats independently.
I don’t think there is any way to fix this other than to find a receiver board designed to accept an RX crystal and control two motors?!
The confrontation of elected members by citizens is nothing new but certainly not something that I ever recall seeing in the order that we are currently witnessing.
MarxistMcGowan is considering moving, AdolfAndrews has spoken about ‘threats’ and Struth just details similar occurring’s in his district. SloMo says that we are being mean online….
There is certainly a groundswell of enthusiasm by people of centre right leanings.
At some of the Queensland protests I have attended Chris, People are holding up photos on signs of their dead relatives. Dead from the jab.
When you force people to take an untested concoction that has already killed thousands, you are a mass murderer. You are obviously at war with those you are killing.
Explain to me why this sin’t so, or STFU with your sneering bullshit.
More firebans in the Western Australian wheatbelt – God has decreed that header divers and chaser bin drivers shall spend the day in the cool and serenity of the local…
Here we go…
Two omicron-infected people landed in Australia on Saturday night. The two individuals were fully vaccinated.
Don’t believe your lying eyes:
‘Vaccines work’: Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly confirms there is no evidence to suggest Omicron is resistant to vaccines
Sheesh,
Just following up on my Qld quarantine bill – went from you will get it in 6 weeks, to 12 weeks, to 16 weeks(as at this mornings call), and given its nearly Christmas, don’t bother ringing again until the new year.
And the morons are claiming that there are millions & millions of $$$ worth of unpaid quarantine bills. Just frikken bill me and I will pay it !
I love banging my head against a brick wall — it feels soooooo good when I stop !
The more cynical among us might conclude that Nobel Prize winner Schmidt is a member of the group to lend it credibility in the halls of parliaments across the nation. The UK version – on which the Oz version is modelled – which is credited with curbing Boris Johnson’s early liberal attitude to lockdowns, is stuffed with Marxists.
In the Daily Tele: “In short, Paul Keating was a complete prick…”
David Elliott: why the Lizard of Oz was my inspiration
NSW police minister says Paul Keating was his inspiration to join politics but in a blistering appraisal of the ex-PM that’s all the praise he affords the boy from Bankstown.
Falling trade and a low Australian dollar prompted Paul Keating to declare the country was in danger of becoming a ‘banana republic’.
Dominic Perrottet and I have a lot in common.
We’re both suburban dads, both came up through the Young Liberals and both cut our teeth in the corporate world before heading into politics.
Ironically, we can both say that Paul Keating has motivated us in some way.
In fact, as my then local member, Keating actually motivated me to join the Bankstown Young Liberals.
As a young person who entered the workforce when youth unemployment was nearly 50 per cent, it’s impossible for me to sit around to cop the veneration of St Paul.
His recent claim that he’s encouraging Premier Perrottet to make “people” the priority of the state government is bitterly ironic.
For those of us who are on the wrong side of 50, it would not come as a shock that Paul Keating’s government caused my father prolonged periods of unemployment and created 17 per cent mortgage interest rates. And Keating was the most uneducated prime minister since World War II.
Now I’m not saying you have to be a tradesman or professional to be in politics, in fact it would be disingenuous of me not to acknowledge the vision of Gough Whitlam by establishing the University of Western Sydney.
It thereby gave us westies a crack at a tertiary education but, like Bob Hawke mused, it’s no coincidence that Keating is the only former Labor prime minister incapable of writing his own memoirs.
Although there is one thing I thank Keating for.
His government’s economic failings forced me to mow lawns and paint houses to pay for my university degree, with that degree being my entry into the Royal Military College at Duntroon.
His cosy, and sometimes deeply hypocritical, relationship with the union movement gave me the motive to work in industry associations and the rest, as they say, is history.
As important as it is for Australian historians to objectively compare and contrast our leaders it’s probably a good time to note that as Treasurers, Dominic Perrottet and his federal counterpart Josh Frydenberg have managed the economy through an unprecedented number of national crises.
The cost of the war on terror, drought and climate emergencies, as well as the global pandemic, have forced treasurers and first ministers into providing a higher level of governance. Keating, however, faced no disaster that wasn’t of his own making.
Recently, I made the point to some journalists that the reason we have crap politicians in this country is because we treat our politicians like crap.
And I know us politicians are our own worst enemy and I’m in no position to cast the first stone, but it’s also just as important that we stop offering up blind praise to our leaders simply because it’s fashionable or, worst still, it suits the agenda of contemporary thought.
Do I sound bitter? I hope so.
The boyhood memories of having household utilities cut off and the embarrassment of having well-natured friends anonymously drop off groceries while listening to Paul Keating say that his recession was one we “had to have” still cuts to the bone.
Labor colleagues often remind me that Keating was disloyal to everyone who ever backed him in.
Saying that he has to teach any Liberal leader about “people” is like Henry VIII offering marriage guidance. He seemed to hate people, particularly his constituents in Bankstown, which is why he lived in Elizabeth Bay.
In short, Paul Keating was a complete prick and it took John Howard a decade to fix his mess.
David Elliott is the NSW Police and Emergency Services Minister.
Awesome in its awesomely awful stupidity! I needed a good laugh this morning.
La Vitrioli couldn’t go undercover, she’d be too keen to tell everybody who she was all the time.
I take great faith in that despite the near total capture of the Arts, the education sector, the media, Big Tech, most supranational and representative bodies their ideas aren’t really gaining any traction and, in the case of the young, might even be causing a backlash. The last Federal election was perhaps the best example.
It would require a lot more than one person to pull a Badman leg.
Speaking of Boris, the number one concern among Tory voters atm is the “migrant” crisis, rated as being more important than health or education.
The “expert” advice from the Home Office is that nothing can be done about it without more French & European cooperation.
I’d suggest Boris get Tony Abbott on the phone.
..
Twostix is a righteous and decent voice of reason.
His perceptive comments over these last two years of nutzoid stupidity have been little doses of balm to those of us who thought ourselves going insane.
My missus read out some of the usual mainstream bilge to me this morning and said to me: “I really thought maybe my English was no good, because this makes no sense”. She was right. It, like most of this stuff of fear, did not make any sense at all.
