I wonder how long this will last before the pollies panic again?

Explained: All the restrictions easing for residents in NSW on Wednesday (Sky News, 14 Dec)

The changes will come into effect on Wednesday with the state’s double dose vaccination rate sitting at 93.2 per cent.

NSW’s easing of restrictions comes as the state recorded 804 new cases of the virus but Health Minister Brad Hazzard said the government was “determined” to bring the community back to normality.

A bit of history on Afghanistan:
The British lost an Army thereb in 1841, so they fought proxy Wars there after that.
2/3 of the Hazara were slaughtered in theb 1880s and the British installed the non Afghan Pashtuns.
The Soviet Union invaded in 1979, fought the Pashtun to a standstill and left a Communist Government.
The Pashtun, now called The Taliban, overthrew that Government in 1995, but by 2001 were pretty shaky.
Enter the United States:
They built roads, forts, Police Stations, murdered the Talibans enemies and left behind all their weapons for the Taliban when they left this year.
Get the picture?

Just a quick note. In case the Cats missed it – the UK’s most respected medical statistician, Prof Norman Fenton, has blown the gene vax scam apart by the most intensive analysis so far on Covid deaths & the vaccinations. He has explained the way the reporting has obscured the lack of efficacy of the vaccines, particularly concentrating on the 14 day period after vaccination which is being classified as unvaccinated when a patient dies in that period.

The study should be easily found on internet – but is today analysed on Jo Nova’s blog.

Gab posted an interesting (and heartbreaking) video yesterday – two nurses talking about the cruelty of barring loved ones from bedsides. Governments, spooked by their own cock-ups and fearing electoral backlash, basically confining the sick and elderly to solitary confinement.

I’m must grateful that my parents are still in their own home and are virtually self-sufficient. At least from today Mum can shop unmuzzled and glasses unfogged. And she will…browse. Take that! weirdo Dr Chant!

However, the vicious brigade are already vocal on Breakfast TV warning about us “unclean” & hoping we will be rejected by individual businesses!

On the other hand, we were delighted to see the dismay of same people that hundreds of people have been infected with the virus on planes & in night club despite being fully vaccinated ! “How can that be ?“ said that insipid Lisa Millar on the ABC.

My Aunt died alone 3 weeks ago. Perversely, people were able to attend her funeral and wake. The unvaxxed, or unable to demonstrate vaxxed able to attend both because in the chaos and confusion of trying to have a bunch of predominantly elderly people demonstrate their vaxxed status most simply slipped past the screening point.

So now that vax restriction legislation has been lifted in NSW, does anyone with some legal nouse know the legality of public institutions such as the NSW Art Gallery continuing their vax restrictions on visitors?

From 15 December, the Art Gallery will continue to require that all workers onsite, and visitors aged 16 years and over entering the Art Gallery or Brett Whiteley Studio are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (unless medically exempt), until at least 31 March 2022.

From the NSW Government’s own website:

Libraries, museums and galleries

Information and education facilities, including art galleries, museums and libraries are open.
Anyone can visit an information and education facility.
Visitors and staff are not required to be fully vaccinated or carry vaccination evidence.
COVID-19 Safe Check-in is not required.
Face masks are not required.
Information and education facilities are no longer required to have a COVID-19 Safety Plan.
Optional COVID-19 Safety Plans are available to help keep a safe environment for staff and customers.

My view – they are in contravention of their own stupid edicts.

The dangerous Omigod variant pounces!

Two planeloads full of passengers will be forced into quarantine in Queensland for 14 days (including Christmas). It comes after an unknowingly Covid-19 positive person flew on a Virgin Australia flight from Brisbane to Townsville on Monday. The other affected flight, also a Virgin Australia service, was to Brisbane from Newcastle, where there has been a recent superspreader event at a nightclub.

Experts say ‘post-pandemic stress disorder’ could lead to rise in heart disease

The known consequences are starting to appear in numbers impossible to ignore but they can always come up with an excuse – post-pandemic stress disorder.

I have no doubt that many people have suffered serious serious stress, but that’s no excuse to ignore the elephant in the room. In any case, if people start dying in large numbers, whether from the vaccine or PPSD, there’s a very good case to say they were murdered, because, either way, it was caused DIRECTLY by the action of government.

Extremely confronting to turn up at a qld hospital with a very sick child to be confronted with a sign that as of Friday unvaccinated people cannot attend the hospital.

Now that’s not the case, they cannot deny medical care – no matter how much they’d love to, but the signs and the sight of security guards manning the check in point are deliberately giving the impression that you won’t be allowed in at all.

So in addition to the worry of the moment of emergency, they are deliberately taunting you.

People will die because they believe what the government is saying.

Duncanm, there is a sub-clause in the new “rules” for “occupiers of premises”. They can request masks, QR, even vax status.

You are not required to give it to them, but they have the right to refuse service. Okay.

But this is a Government entity, and has a different sub-clause (the one I posted). They think they are a law unto themselves. The NSW Government, to maintain a shred of credibility (I know, I know) has to re-educate them about their service to the public.

Excellent point, but what is more interesting is that Dom Dom may just have a bit more backbone than we credited him with.

You can be sure that the usual suspects exerted unrelenting pressure to extend restrictions against lepers as much as they could. Kerry Chant is speaking through gritted teeth.

This means that the roles have been reversed, and public servants actually have to do as they are told, like it or lump it.

Dom Dom has worked out that making the other Premiers/Chief Ministers look like fainting Victorian maidens is both popular and pragmatic, as Gladys did before her mysterious form reversal.

Don’t get me wrong. Jeff Kennett’s been as guilty of overreach as any pollie, State or Federal in living memory. He left the bush on its own to die and let the dangerously, mentally ill roam Mongyang’s streets – from which the joint’s never recovered.

But he’s bang on with this one. The Hun:

Councillors who voted to change the name of Moreland Council have been urged to personally stump up the “millions of dollars” the move will cost.

Former premier Jeff Kennett said it was a case of political correctness gone mad as the Greens-dominated council split over the proposal to rename Moreland with an Aboriginal moniker because of a supposed link to a 19th century Jamaican slave estate.

“Every dollar a municipality spends is a dollar lost to the community,” he said.

“If the six councillors who voted for it had any decency they’d pay for it themselves.”

Independent councillor Oscar Yildiz – one of three councillors who voted against the move – estimated it would cost ratepayers up to $9m over several years, including at least $3m alone to change thousands of street signs.

Perhaps the other councillors could volunteer to work as posties, and navigate what street’s become what while delivering mail. Also, they could personally fork out to Google for the map name changes.

Union fury over cracks found in imported wind turbines

Cracks have been found in wind turbines imported from China for Australia’s largest wind farm, with a national union leader declaring the defects would not have happened if the Morrison government had acted to ensure they were manufactured locally.

Defects have been uncovered in the turbines’ top covers, known as nacelles, imported for use at Stockyard Hill Wind Farm, 35km west of Ballarat in central Victoria.

Cracks have been found in 19 of the 40 turbines inspected and there are a further 100 to inspect. It is estimated it will take up to four weeks to repair each turbine.

The Australian Manufacturing Workers Union claimed the federal government “sat on its hands while our largest wind farm imported towers from China instead of supporting secure local jobs”.

AMWU national secretary Steve Murphy said “if you repeatedly cut corners to save money, you end up with a market flooded with cheap products that are poor quality and aren’t fit for purpose”.

“We’re seeing cost cutting with imported trains, buses, trams, ferries; there’s an obsession with buying things cheaply overseas. This approach is failing, they need to learn from their mistakes,” he said.

“The federal government has failed working people, it has proven it can’t be trusted with creating secure jobs, supporting local manufacturing, and greening our economy – we need a government that supports Aussie-made.

“While other countries are joining the race to secure jobs in existing and emerging manufacturing industries in the global supply chain, Australia is trailing the pack. Australia has spent the least during the Covid-19 recovery on greening our economy.”

Stockyard Hill Wind Farm general manager Jackson Hill confirmed the cracks in a statement to The Australian on Tuesday. “Stockyard Hill Wind Farm is aware of the issue of the defects in a platform supporting secondary equipment systems within the wind turbine nacelles,” he said. “We are working with the supplier on a rectification of the issue in accordance with prudent engineering and safety standards.”

He said the defects were not affecting operations of any turbine.

Mr Hill said the construction of the wind farm had seen more than 400 employees and contractors on-site, including many local Australian companies.

He said employees of local companies had formed and poured foundations for the 149 Goldwind turbines while 140 tower sections had been locally manufactured. The project employs more than 20 permanent local staff.

According to an AMWU official who visited the site, the company had so far detected 19 turbines that needed repair.

Up to a month will be needed to fix each turbine, with three crews undertaking repairs. The AMWU said the company had said it expected to find further cracks in towers yet to be inspected. In July, Goldwind Australia said the wind farm had passed its first hold point test, and was approved by the Australian Energy Market Operator and Network Services Provider to generate up to 30MW into the National Electricity Market.

Mr Murphy said manufacturing workers suffered because of the Morrison government’s ­“obsession with its gas mining ­donors, meaning it will lock in high-cost, high carbon energy for decades”.

Does anyone want to point out to the “bruvvas” why those wind turbines weren’t manufactured in Australia in the first place?

“No, I mean, how do you spell it in Aboriginal?”

Still have not had my – three – letters published to the Hobart Mercury, asking why the local shamans managed to get Mount Wellington – four thousand foot pile that dominates Hobart – re-signed as “kunanyi/Mount Wellington” with a lower case “k”.

Pointing out that the local blokes did not have a written language – and therefore can hardly claim to have lower case words – is just not cutting through.

The truth of it doubtless is that some “auntie” or “elder” probably wrote it that way in a meeting a few years back, and no-one of the woke brigade dared to challenge it.

The last lines of The Great Gatsby summed it up: ““So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”

A few people getting sick of perpetual wokeness?

Mornington Peninsula Shire has knocked back an emotional plea to fly the Aboriginal flag at half mast on Australia Day.

Cr Sarah Race wanted the shire to lower the flag to honour First Nation’s’ “day of mourning”.

“It seems unfathomable to have another year go by when as a council we do not recognise the complexity of this day,’ Cr Race said.

The proposal sparked an angry response from locals who called it “divisive and racist” when it when it was first floated for discussion at a December 7 meeting.

And, despite many councillors supporting reconciliation, the flag plan was rejected on Tuesday night.

Yep. Motes and beams, you horrible TAFE graduates posing as physicians. From the US Library of National Medicine:

Epidemiology of medical error

In Australia medical error results in as many as 18?000 unnecessary deaths, and more than 50?000 patients become disabled each year.

And:

In the Australian study cognitive errors, such as making an incorrect diagnosis or choosing the wrong medication, were more likely to have been preventable and more likely to result in permanent disability than technical errors.

Speaks for itself, especially when compared to 200,000 Omicron cases and one alleged death as a result. The entire Australian population could develop viral pneumonia and have a greater survival rate if nobody went near a hospital.

Easy, Zipster.

Actually, it was a seat-winning promise which was fulfilled. Say what you like about Whitlam, in this case it was a zinger.

Due to indifference or incompetence or whatever by The Authorities, large parts of metropolitan Sydney were unsewered in 1972. And, it wasn’t just the western suburbs – even The (sacred) Shire, where I lived, was affected.

Whitlam promised it and delivered. State and municipal governments fell down on the job, and reaped the whirlwind.

After reading the QLD Health CHO directions, it seems that the fat fuck doctor and her cuck sidekick are completely wrong and openly engaged in wishful thinking:

In addition to paragraph 7, from 5:00am AEST 17 December 2021, a person who is unvaccinated, other than a patient of the hospital, must not enter, or remain at, a hospital in the State of Queensland, unless the person is:

….

visiting the patient of the hospital for one of the following purposes:

end of life visit; or

to be a support person during childbirth; or

in an emergency.

Note: For example, a person other than a patient of the hospital, may enter in circumstances of an emergency such as visiting a family member in ICU.

a parent, carer, guardian or other responsible adult who is accompanying a child or minor that is a patient of the hospital; or

Note: The unvaccinated parent, carer, guardian, or other responsible adult will need to comply with the risk mitigation measures put in place by the hospital. For example, this may require wearing a single use-surgical face mask, safely physically distancing from others or having a COVID-19 test within 24 hours of entering the facility. Only one unvaccinated parent carer, guardian or responsible adult will be allowed to accompany a child or minor to an appointment or admission at a time.

I’ll tell you on the one hand it’s a huge relief to read the letter of the ‘order’ and it says in black and white that parents and guardians and ‘support’ people are allowed to enter hospitals with our childen (not withstanding the utter insanity of the general situation and evil of banning adults from visiting their over 16 year old loved ones).

On the other it’s extremely disconcerting that the deliberately constructed layer of lies that has been placed over the top of these ‘orders’ goes all the way to signs up at the hospital saying unvaccinated people can’t enter the hospital from Friday 17, and doctors are walking around paediatric wards openly talking to each other about unvaccinated parents not being allowed to stay with kids from Friday.

I.e the propaganda is so thick that even people acutely involved in the system don’t know the truth unless they do a deep dive into the farce ‘orders’ posing as law.

Which means at least some people are going to not go to hospital thinking they can’t go in, parents and carers are going to be incorrectly turned away from hospitals, and are going to get into great big arguments in hospitals along the lines of “you don’t even know your own laws!” with nurses and doctors and security guards which will have Courier Mail headlines of the type “Antivaxxer rages at poor downtrodden frontline worker!” – where in the last paragraph you’ll read that the person was 100% correct and standing up for themselves while being blocked from seeing their child because Nurse / Doctor / Security Guard Covid Karen doesn’t know the law, or does and is just being a malevolent shit.

Are you still sticking with this? Your reverse-Alinski rubbish isn’t working all that well.

Again – where did you get those numbers? Genuine question.

The ABC desperately wants slavery to have been a part of the Australian story, and will torture history viciously in an attempt to write it in. The following passage is a good indicator of how successful the ABC has been in this endeavour:

While few managed to import enslaved people into Australia, after Captain Arthur Phillip’s declaration that there could be “no slavery in a free land, and consequently no slaves”, many carried British slavery’s fundamental conceit in their minds

And never, ever, under any circumstances reveal the source for the Big Statement of Momentous Importance. Because there very often isn’t one…

People are using real timelines you dim-bulb delivery boy.
You predicted in October the jabbed* would die within 18 months to four years.
The clock is ticking.
We are now in December.
Which means the timeline for Armageddon is 16 to 46 months from now.
I know you are innumerate, but Jeez.

* The jabbed. Not a percentage of the jabbed, or a particular cohort of the jabbed.

St.Ruth. In October – two months ago – you said 18 months to 4 years. Four years is 48 months.

Now it’s December, two months later. That is why I said it’s now 16 to 46 months. According to your Great Prediction.

And yes. Only the jabbed. Which is what you also said.

then, oh no, Frank the walking dead comes in with 18 months to 4 years as I actually said.

That was after you said it was ‘probably true’.

Most likely you’ll be dead within four years.
However, I was quoted as saying all of Australia.
WHEN PEOPLE LIE ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID, IT’S NOT DEFLECTING TO CALL THEM OUT ON IT.
Only the jabbed.

On the many medical journals I have read, by hundreds of doctors opposed to this, videos watched and real world observed, one being the guy who invented the clot shot, plus the hospitals filling with those suffering side effects which include death, from the jabs, as they explained would happen, and that they believe about four years MAX, and the lack of immunity from everything the vaxxed seem to be suffering now in places like Israel, I hope you get the full four years.
It ain’t just me saying it, and what’s going on is exactly what the AFLD’s and others said would happen.

At least a man proud of his missing teeth and tattoos, mullet, his flannels and stone wash has an attempt at talking facts.

I don’t mullet up for anyone, flannos are awesome in less than 20 degrees, and I baulk at stone wash as it is the mark of the faux groovy.

Perhaps. Last night I read about an animal study where they used mRNA to prime T cells so that they would express on their cell surface specific receptors. Then about 6 hours later they injected some antibodies. Worked a real treat at killing off tumours. Could be a huge leap in cancer immunotherapy.

But earlier:

When the jabbed die in the next 18 months to 4 years, this is what will be claimed killed them.

So… is it ‘most likely’ or ‘when’?

Like I said. This flapping about and covering your contradictions, which are offered dependent on your mood at the time with six inches of wordwall mayonnaise does nothing – in my view – to convince waverers to come on side.

One thing which should have become clear from The Great Faulty Implosion is this.
When outlandish predictions are made, people here quietly collect and file the receipts.
When the time comes, they stick those receipts to a baseball bat and beat the Great Predictionator soundly (figuratively speaking).

The UK parliament has voted to introduce vaccine passports for large venues.

Even more useless than masks.

Speaking of which, Professor Mary-Louise McLaws – the lazy journalists epidemiologist of choice – has warned NSW residents to “be precautious” and continue to wear masks until they’ve received their booster shot.’

She also opined dthat the timing of boosters should be brought forward, especially for young people, “You’ve got to give [young] people that booster before they walk into a high-risk period of low immune immunity from the vaccine.”
