If the Queen wants to be such a good citizen by making Andrew be dealt with like a pleb, maybe she can overturn the extension of keeping a range of WWII papers wrapped up for another gazillion years like she demanded.
Is that right? Something to do with Edward VIII maybe?
Mater and Cassie for mine this morning. Always appreciate seeing my own position on an issue so eloquently expressed by commenters here.
It’s a big reason I stick around.

Cassie of Sydney:
I’ve asked several times what EVIDENCE is there about the accusations?
Tellingly, there’s been no reply.
This has circled the globe
Cassie:
Let me restate that…
I’ve asked people I socialise with (not just Cats.) several times what EVIDENCE is there about the accusations?
Tellingly, there’s been no reply.
The original sounds like it could be an accusation that the good people here know but won’t say.
Nor me. I’ve been surrounded by close cases on every front this past fortnight. Walking companions, tennis players, medical clinic, friend who has been busy jabbing others, coffee shop staff. Every single one of them double vaxxed. Some boosted.
Me: no mask since March 2020, unvaxxed and becoming less inclined to even line up for Novovax should it ever magically appear, still with multiple autoimmune issues and not a sniffle. It’s a mystery all right.
For the USA. They still mandating this shit for almost every job in Victoria.
Hopefully when the real Rudolph Hess papers are released, the Brits will protest in a similar manner to when the royals fawned over Hirohito when he went to the UK in the 70’s.
Mandating the Y2K booster.
Great rant Cassie & so true.

When you go to war, you can only really do your job if you resign yourself to the fact that you’re already dead.
Micky Martin, front line flyer all through WW II, Dam Buster, awesomely brave, took the same attitude. He spent his pay as soon as he received it, saving nothing for the future he had abandoned. His only focus was to do his job to the best of his ability. And at the end, he was alive!
The U.S. Department of Justice is creating a new “domestic terrorism” unit under the pretense of monitoring racist and anti-government extremism, an official with DOJ’s National Security Division (NSD) told senators Tuesday.

If we manage to get out of our current dire situation with some semblance of civilization we need to think about making virtue signalling and online mobs quasi-illegal.
I’ve previously suggested that the leader of a country has the right (but not obligation) to give people what they say they want.
If you publicly call to override the presumption of innocence for someone else then from that point on, if anybody accuses you of something, then you’ll be assumed to be guilty.
I think both are aimed at trying to protect the monarchy. Labour in the latest poll is 10 points ahead of the Tories. So having moderate Labourites on side is about the only thing that could stop the Corbynistas from abolishing 1500 years of history.

Unsolicited phone calls of dubious origin – I think it’s cyclical. I used to get a run of (unanswered) calls from Russia and Eastern Europe over a week or so, then nothing for a few months, then the same.
I also got text messages saying ‘your delivery is on its way’ when I hadn’t ordered anything, and which invited me to click a link for further details.

Who was that bloke who posted at the old Cat. Some stoush in around 1970, his principal aim was to get home alive?
All he had to do was keep vaccination records private and/or allow people to fill in their own vaccine certificates. He didn’t need to compel the states to do or not do anything.
I’m pretty confident that the narrative will have been demolished worldwide by the end of this year, whether it will have done so in time for our May election is the harder question.
Now watch industries re-classify millions as jobs as health care workers.

Dickless upticking, and well deserved too.
It occurs to me, and not for the first time, that there is a sizeable chunk of people in this fair land that bemoan the ratshit-filled hive of clickbait-driven diarrhoea that is the MSM in this and other countries.
That’s one thing, it’s accurate and it’s entirely fair enough.
But when it comes to this, and ex-HRH Andy is a perfect example, those exact same people latch onto what the MSM exudes – on whatever subject – and treat it as gospel.
Frankly, it’s fucking appalling in my view. It directly leads to nuffies posting questionable clips and articles for the ‘benefit’ of others, claiming that ‘It’s on YouTube so it must be true!!!1! Look at the background in the clip – there’s lots of books so the fat bloke on camera with the beard must have credibility!’
Heil MacGowan!!!!!
It’s amusing, and a bit of a laugh, but the seriously scary bit behind it is that this sort of patently absurd research, by an “expert in faces” no less, is exactly what is being used to keep us oppressed.
There seems to be no end to the supply of grifters, bagmen, and plain old fashioned frauds that occupy our institutions, churning out garbage that the petit tyrans quote as “Da Science” to conceal their despotic schemes.
There was an article by Alan Dershowitz ( who has also been fingered by Guiffre ) pointing out that in the Maxwell trial, there was a heap of evidence about her activities in procuring young girls for Epstein and Maxwell.
She was not called on to give evidence as clearly the prosecution did not see her as a reliable witness.
I suspect neither Andrew or Guiffre want to get into a witness box.
Premier Mark McGowan announced sweeping proof-of-vaccination measures as the next measure to be deployed in a bid to help WA re-open to the world as safely as possible.
Why doesn’t he just liquidate the unvaxxed and be done with it?
Welp, it looks like my one-and-only essential premises will be the roadhouse up the road. So much more than a servo: hot food en casa, bottleshop, meat fridge, icecream chest with both the big stables, and staffed by a tag-team of no-nonsense girls of varying ages, colours and levels of flirt.

Cash.
What have we established?
Some businesses like it.
Some businesses don’t.
No consumer can force a business to take cash.
If recent RBA stats are to be believed, cash is dying as mode of settlement for retail transactions.
A common misconception is that tradies love cash.
I must have dealt with thirty or so over the last ten years or so.
I always offer cash, but most are ambivalent about it. One even said that anything more than a few hundred dollars was more of a nuisance than anything. Only paid one bloke cash in that time.

Bank transfer only.
Anyway, three years on and nothing.
I’m starting to get a sense of déjà vu. In the months before Hawkie was elected, government departments and quangos and unions appeared to be in lockstep with strikes and go-slows and all manner of tactics to get a “consensus” government over the line. It was relentless. State governments and their apparatus like transport ditto.
The Smirker isn’t helping with dumbo statements and silly shenanigans like the Djoker affair, but I can’t help but think there’s more behind it.
Of course, when Albo is in the Lodge everything will go away. If I’m right. And then it will be too late.
Yeah me too. Once again repeating the déjà vu.
Whatever it takes.
McGowan, like Gunner is engaging in an old fashioned mass purge of his political enemies from the state. He knows people who hate this shit overwhelmingly don’t support for him, and he knows he can get rid of 40,000+ of them from marginal areas by persecuting them with this stuff and create a Victorian style one party state in WA.
The 19th and early twentieth century was rife with this kind of behaviour all across Europe.
calli – you’re not wrong about the ascent of Hawke being carefully choreographed. I have previously recounted my experience of being held out on strike in the Pilbara in the 80s till Hawkey could get there. It didn’t work with the Hero of Beaconsfield. Next time’s a charm.
There was an article by Alan Dershowitz ( who has also been fingered by Guiffre ) pointing out that in the Maxwell trial, there was a heap of evidence about her activities in procuring young girls for Epstein and Maxwell.
One of the witnesses against Maxwell has surfaced for some media-enrichment.
She claims she was recruited by Guiffre/Roberts at age 14. She also claims Guiffre/Roberts was proud of shagging Andrew.

Re the socks down the speedos – Had a mate once we were at the beach together, he’s trying to talk to women but they showed no interest. He said to me “I don’t get it women always talk to me at home but here they just say hello and keep walking”, I looked at him in his speedos and suggested that he grab a potato and put it in his speedos and see what happens. Off he went to get a spud, around an hour later he came back and said it was worse than before, the women wouldn’t enven say hello but just walk away fast. I looked at him and said “You’re supposed to put the potato in the front”.
Old but good.
2 questions for you:
1) Sneakers already has de facto 1 party rule in Sandgroperstan.
2) Where do you derive your ‘40,000+’ figure from, amd what does it actually represent?
3) Where are said ‘40,000+’ going to go/be sent away to?
4) Are you sure you are not Struth’s sock account? Because your panicked hyperbole and non-understanding of life outside your particular parochial bubble (in the face of everything actual Sandgroper Cats have been telling you) is now completely identical.

What stood out was this long agonized cluck.
Dr Stokes-Parish said there had been an increase in the amount of content published online containing extremist and “radicalised” views during the pandemic, especially around COVID vaccines.
“It’s the things that people perceive to have a personal impact on them — that’s when they get quite aggressive and seem to go on the attack,” she said.
So “extremist” is pixes online, whats hunky dory is restricting peoples rights to work, socialize or even use the services they pay taxes for, while subjected to a 24/7 campaign of thuggish ads and pressure promising more misery if they dont submit.

You just beat me to it! From the same article:
Well, they’re not too far off the mark, Dr Iman Academic, Ph.D . Smug, virtue-signalling numpty.
Indeed.
The scramjet plane won’t get any further than the edge of the Earth’s atmosphere anyway, so said little satellites still need an additional rocket motor attached to launch them into their orbital trajectory.
It may allegedly be a cheaper launch method than a traditional rocket, but only for niche applications where LEO is needed. If you are after geostationary or higher-coverage trajectories (where most commercial stuff goes, e.g. TV, microwave internet, mapping, etc.) the rocket still wins.
Seems every couple of years there’s a Strayan scramjet powered surface-to-orbit vehicle, soon to be the next big thing.
At least they’re not trying to build a better V-2.
Are you trying to be this stupid?
From Victoria, faggot.
Obviously people are going to leave the state if they’re being persecuted.

Seems every couple of years there’s a Strayan scramjet powered surface-to-orbit vehicle, soon to be the next big thing.
Meanwhile, SpaceX launched and recovered another Falcon 9 last night (tenth flight for that booster) with 105 rideshare satellites and recovered the first stage booster at the Cape. Looked to be pretty much dead center of the landing pad which bodes well for catching Superheavy and Starships which both will have no landing gear.
Liquid oxygen is cheap. High temperature materials etc for a scramjet, not so much.
re, soliciting phone calls. I used to regularly receive calls that showed OVERSEAS on caller ID on my landline. Upon answering, a Chinese voice would state that they calling regarding the “car accident”, you caused last year. They were running the percentages obviously. I would just laugh and tell them I was in Nigeria at the time.
I don’t receive these kind of calls on my mobile, but my spam is a real hoot. I have been tempted to find out how “I too, can grow a 15 inch black penis”. LOL I wonder if it would go well with my DD boobs?
You reckon gravity and remaining atmospheric resistance will be greater than inertia/momentum?
Once it hits mach 12 and its up high enough it will probably go into space endlessly and never hit anything.
Hmm
Don’t I mean mach 40, or ~12 km/s?
Science fiction in action:
Transporter-3 Mission (14 Jan, via Instapundit)
For a million US dollars you can now launch a satellite up to 200 kg into solar orbit, which this launch is going to. If you want an Earth orbit you can hitch a ride on a Starlink launch, SpaceX lets you do that.
So now any Sydneysider can sell their house, build a satellite and go for a ride. Well not them, I doubt that would be allowed, but what they want to send. Do you want your fridge to orbit the Sun for a thousand years? Now’s your chance!
The video is breathtaking. The 1st stage had sufficient fuel to land back at Canaveral, with split screen as it landed. Mindblowing. And the lady commentator mentioned something new to me – they now recover the fairings from the 2nd stage payload when they’re ejected: about the same time as the 1st stage is detached. How they recover those fairings I have no idea.
They aren’t, you fool.
The grain is already there. It was all in before the ban took place.
Furthermore, not a single person has been arrested, prosecuted, banned or otherwise legally penalised in the way you’ve frantically masturbated about on this site for some two years.
For a fellow who goes off his nut about retarded boomers on a daily basis, you sure do behave like one…
And about zero CO2. How do they propose to make the liquid hydrogen? In any case H2O is a far for effective greenhouse gas than is CO2.
I’d rather a scramjet-powered land based anti-ship missile. And a lot of them. Y’know, something that might actually come in handy some day.
Um, what about transfers? Milling sites generally don’t have bunkers for more than 3-4 months of supply.
I forgot to mention – it was the tenth time that 1st stage had been launched and recovered. Amazing.
…nukes
…drones
No. We better make more women feel comfortable about being career officers, and have Lt Gen’s wearing drag to “support women”.
What a joke.
What do they put in the water at Dun’troon?
Speaking of deploying satellites via aircraft
How they recover those fairings I have no idea.
The fairings survive re-entry and have steerable parachutes, land in the water and are fished out and inspected and repaired as necessary. Apparently the fairings are about $6 million for the pair. Running the boat is not so expensive.
They did try for quite a while to catch the fairings on nets about the boat but despite the odd catch it wasn’t successful or reliable. Easier to engineer the fairings to survive short time water immersion.
There are some videos around of the fairings during re-entry from inside the fairing and others of the catch attempts with the boat.
Yep.
We are pulling the trigger. House clean up has started. There is an outside chance of staying if things turn around by end of march, but highly unlikely with that dictator piece of shit we have.
And a snap to Eyrie by two minutes. I gave a link to the video but!
.1 WA is not Victoria. There is residual industry and no serious attempts at totalitarianism. You would be amazed what people will suffer if the FIFO money is decent enough. Also, the entire State ha as not experienced constant, rolling LockDans, pregnant mothers being arrested on livestream for spurious ‘incitement,’ police bashing and shooting protestors or near-total crippling of anything not Public Service or Public Service-aligned.
2. If you feel a need to question the sexuality of anyone who has stymied you in your squealing, then you forfeited any legitimacy or fair consideration of your claims the moment you put it to print.
Go be demoralised at someone else, you deranged little squit.
And try not to get mugged by reality in the same way as the leftists- Whose lies and infantile nature you draw your Hanrahan-ish Narrative from- Are experiencing.
If ‘folksy’ salt of the earth tractor drivers like Rex are at the helm of the opposition I can’t imagine why WA is a one party state run by aggressive urban CCP aligned technocrats who are running riot right over the top of them on every single issue. And now running a vicious campaign of verbal and legal persecution that will help rid their state of the last vestiges of any moral-at-any-cost, won’t-budge, reactionary opposition from the place that still existed.
Make sure you drop off your delivery of oats to the silos, Rexie – take your drugs before you are allowed the privilege though. Your asian empire needs them.
And re the delayed snap, I had birdies at the front door demanding early lunch: five noisies and half a dozen currawongs. They launch and land themselves, I just provide the fuel.
Have memories of trying to do something with a video presento
from the University of Upper Tumbucna West or somewhere,
on the successful demonstration of scram jet technology.
The CG animation was nearly as good as Quake.
You could’ve lost the test artefact between the sofa cushions.
I’m now imagining giant butterfly nets for hypersonic transfer darts flying canisters of Death Gluten above each grain bin.
Or even funnier, a hypersonic scramjet zooming over a grain bin, and releasing a cloud of Death Glutens, each with its own deliciously twee little parachute to safely deliver it to terra firma…

Teh Paywallian reporting the US Supreme Court has thrown out Biden’s vaccine mandates. I can’t see how Sneakers latest demented ravings could ever survive legal challenge if they get that far. Some poor mongrel WAPol mandate legal challenge still on foot.
Yes, it’s a good point you make re lockdowns Rex.
Western Australians are so CCP cucked they didn’t even need the violence and threats of ‘lockdowns’ of the east coast to make you all do as you’re told and accept the new way of living. And even with that level of obedience your premier is still cracking the whip on the unvaccinated – even as it all falls apart everywhere else.

Everything is legal as long as there is a tenuous connection to the emergency powers.
As long as whatever he man-dates* has some sort of “health” objective it will be rubber stamped.
Its shit legislation.

Everybody bar Sandgropers missed this bit in the mad fuss about Ohmigod around the same time.
He’s also pivoting to claim mRNA stabs are only good for 3 months from Jan 31st, so anybody done in November/December to be Mark-compliant in time for the first mandates will need to be done again in Feb/March.
Mandate to govern, gone.
McMongan is actually not only making vaccines compulsory, he’s forcing a third dose?
As well as stating his restrictions will be in place for “many years” giving a rough idea of when the revolting slug is likely to surrender emergency powers.
Remember all those years ago laughing at Conroy and his “ill make you wear red undies on your head”? Long time ago 2016….

My Admin law is a bit rusty but I will be interested to see how you make a law under a public health power to make it illegal to go to a bottleshop when it is legal to go to a supermarket. Even a Rob Hulls appointment might struggle with that one.
Scommo channels his inner covid conspiracy theorist and cleary reiterates that “the numbers are a lie!”.
It’s unbelievable that what maybe even just three months ago in any situation would have had the nice classes eye rolling and if you’re unlucky unleashing abuse calling you a “covidiot” and “conspiracy theorist”, is now word for word being said by the Prime Minister of Australia.
The ‘hospitalisation’ numbers are and always were completely misleading. And deliberately misleading people using numbers – as the entire government and media did for two years is lying.
It seems materials science is the only significant stumbling block to
Bernoulli doing all the heavy lifting.

@ Dot-
Most folks got SafeWA in good faith initially. I doubt many are going to suffer the new app with linked stab status. And even if they do, I do not expect it to be used any more widely or avidly than the general waving in from of QR codes (whether it registers or not) that SafeWA gets now.
It will probably be enforced for the first 3 weeks or so, then everybody will stop caring.
Simple. You ask the High Court how they come to some of their criminal and constitutional decisions.
He’s still at it.
Maybe Mr Conroy should wear his red jocks on his face to stop being infected by sniffles.
Dominic Perrottet is ‘drowning in his own stupidity’ (12 Jan)
Pretty much as you’ve described.
Truck rolls over weighbridge and onto the grid, under guidance from the loadout operator. I’ve seen the truckies briefly hop out to open and close their own tarps, grain hatches and dumper flaps. But everything after that is done in the truck. And directed by the loadout folks, who also do the paperwork, sample the incoming load for bugs and contamination, and sweep up the excess and the spillage back into the grid.
The grain is then conveyored to the appropriate cell for storage and fumigation.
If trains are involved, the loadout guys will open and close the discharge doors and supervise and sample the unloading, but all movements and wagon setups are carried out by the train crew. When loading, the train crew pops the hatches and run the train under the direction of the loadout operators, who are directing grain thru the loading chutes into the wagons.
I’m a bit unclear on this.
If an unjabbed farmer wants to deliver his grain into a CBH site from now on the law says he can’t?
Correct?
Hi Rex – the other night in your response that I was “drawing a comically long bow ” with regards to Scummos use of his foreign troops on Australian soil legislation, I asked you to provide some realistic scenario(s) where the use of foreign troops would be necessary (& righteous).
You probably missed it because it was a bit late at night, but could you please make some suggestions?
thanks, Tony
We need not only a series of Royal Commissions in to the whole raft of Victorian centric criminal government episodes of shame such as Lawyer X, Gate-gate scam, Town mode, Jay and Milligan and who actually lit the fires in 2020, but we need one into who is being paid right now.
Yes. Nobody expects a Spanish Inquisition, especially from a “live and let live” libertarian.
Note: I pray for a vindictive populist government to “level the site” of the building of great (neo)classical liberal institutions.
Like in America (as so above, so below) – Trump first, then Rand Paul.

Just as relevant here:
The real lesson of Partygate is not that Boris is a lying hypocrite (we knew that already) but that lockdown laws are an ass and always have been
One of the funniest episodes from one nation yet.
Allegedly.
Not that anyone is really going to check.
CBH are not BHP. Even if they have an ex-Executive from there running the show.
CBH is a farmers’ co-operative. Farmers are arseholes. I think that says enough about the matter…
It’s a while since I delivered a load to the Wheat Board, & never in West Oz, but for the life of me I can’t think how there is a transfer of covid possible, except perhaps if you’re swapping jokes/gossip while the load is draining out.
Even then, the social distancing is well beyond 1.5 metres.
Canada, where I’ve delivered lotsa lotsa loads to the Pool (as they called it) it’d spread in no time, coz it’s a much more bespoke/boutique operation. (or was)
Want to dong lotsa people in a farming area? Send an infected driver in with a load of grain, the whole district will have it by Friday.
The CHO issues a directive under the delegated legislation declaring that bottleshops are henceforth unessential. Not sure if that’s exactly how they did it in WA but the power is there.
The SCOTUS ruling banned the jab mandate for private companies via presidential decree (EO).
The door is still open for a jab mandate if it’s legislated.
Don’t think we’ll see that during a mid-term year.

Police and the Country Fire Service (CFS) were called to the Eyre Highway at Coorabie, about 100 kilometres west of Ceduna, just before 4am following reports that a truck had caught fire.
Police said the driver of the truck escaped without injury and unhooked one of the trailers.
The CFS said a large amount of a chemical the truck had been carrying had spilled on the road and there was also a large amount of toxic smoke.

Kav & Roberts immediately contradict themselves saving a jab mandate is ok if you are a health care worker.

Behold! Your country, as reported in the UK Telegraph:
has revealed she was ordered to undress during her lengthy interrogation by border force officials
Now Scommo is a ratbag shit, but not this level. The bureaucracy is ruled and staffed exclusively by people who hate him, and borders, and ‘anti-vaxxers’, and there is an election coming up, and this stuff is starting to stink of a win-win wedge narrative for open borders, green-left bureaucrats.
Heads: “Oh so you don’t like Australia’s border policies when they’re being applied not-brown people? Well, well, well, a little bit racist no, how do you like it?”
Tails: “We’re being forced to implement these draconian rules by Scott Morrison government, we’d like to show compassion but our hands are tied and his government is ruthless!”.
If he overrides them and lets them in: “Scott Morrison is letting unvaccinated foreigners in when QLDers, WA, NT, and Victorian people are still banned from life! Shame on him!”.
Ha! ha!
The law and rule changes are in ppace because we already host elements of several foreign militaries on our soil for training and mutual aid basing. To wit, Singapore’s Army (FNQ) and Air Force (Basic and Advanced Pilot Training at RAAF Pearce in WA), and the US Marine Corps in Darwin.
We want to expand this to include Japan, India and a number of other mutually friendly powers. None of whom (just as we would expect for our diggers overseas) want to see their troops hung up for offending local law that they fell afoul of.
Status of Forces Agreements for foreign militaries are a common thing. Unless you are a mliitary member in a foreign land, or hosting them in your community, nobody knows or cares. The military justice system is what military members are bound by. And it will administer to its members in lieu of the law of the foreign land.
None of this justifies blind panic that PLA paratroopers or Naval Infantrymen are going to be allowed to come in and abuse the Australian population with total carte blanche because the Australian Government feels it has no control over its own people in a State of Emergency. That is not how the game has ever worked. The UN in its peacekeeping guises has only ever accepted requests from member nations, or agreed to commit troops when the social breakdown is near-total, and the optics look really bad on the nightly news.
A serious bushfire or flooding event where say NZ, PNG or Indonesia offers some medical and engineering teams to Australia as good neighbours and these are accepted, and they need some special arrangements so that they do not get picked up and hung out to dry under local law for something. It is already enough of an international incident if one of your de facto ambassadors in green misbehaves in-country and gets a speeding ticket. Let alone commits a theft or murder or is alleged to have done the same.
This is why I say your repeated fears of the PLA turning up to occupy us because Canberra has asked Beijing to deploy them since the PM feels he cannot keep Australia in check is far-fetched to the point of ridicule.
We are not a vassal state being propped up by the PLA, a la Communist Hungary in 1956 or Czechoslovakia in 1968. Not by a long shot.
What the hell do they think is she hiding?
lotocoti, materials aren’t the only problem. Hypersonic aerodynamics, actually getting a scramjet to produce more thrust than drag, control issues, heating etc.
Meanwhile Falcon 9’s takeoff, the booster returns to the barge or near the launch point, time after time after time. Done deal.
In the Fridman/Musk interview that was linked here it is mentioned that a F9 launch with used first stage is maybe $15 million. At a million a pop for rideshare and 105 satellites on the latest launch SpaceX are coining it bigly. BTW that estimate of the launch costs of F9 is AFAIK the first time this has been revealed. It has been exercising lots of minds including those in the launch industry in Russia, Europe and China while SpaceX commercially eats their lunches.
When Starship gets going the costs mentioned are one to two million for a flight for 100+ tonnes delivered into orbit.
Hypersonics have been hopelessly left behind. Would make good weapons though although they may be competing with 100+ tonnes of “Rods from God”.
And Fat Tony,
We have had this same conversation several times on this Cat and at least once on the Old.
The points and counter-points we made to each other were identical each time.
There is a market for covid masks in the style of a pair of y-fronts.
It does have the occasional snigger and the odd guffaw.
Balls.
But as always, there is more to the sob stoey than the activists or journos or the entitled sports-MA’AM! will be letting on…
With Virgin Orbit’s launches earlier and now this one Earth orbit just got much more crowded.

With regards to list markers:

Mendacious reporting example no. 998½:
NSW records deadliest day of the pandemic, Victorian hospitalisations at all-time high (Sky News, 14 Jan)
“With”, which isn’t at all surprising since last week NSW Health announced that hospitals will no longer separate coof sufferers in separate wards. So guess what? All the poor people on their last legs now are getting coof. Which is then reported as dying with Covid666.
More mendacity:
So no linking that the tens of thousands of coof sufferers are 95% vaccinated, and a third triple vaxxed. Nor that the infected vaccine recipients are the cause for the hospitalizations. At least the journo acknowledges that the totally useless quarantine policy is contributing to pressure on hospitals.
If we can’t even rely on Sky News to report the news without leftist spin what hope do we have?
If Americans were forced or fired under companies operating under Biden’s now illegal EO, I imagine they can sue those companies?
hat hospitals will no longer separate coof sufferers in separate wards.
It sounds like they want to kill off those with the co-morbidities.
Jesus, from Bruce’s article.
It’s NY nursing homes all over again.
It’s one thing to have the spicy cough.
It’s another thing to put those who need to be hospitalise in with the other punters.
Let’s hope the major party vote absolutely caves.
Dot, I’m listening to the Adam Curry/Rogan podcast.
I’ve never heard of the Zepps chap until I saw the clip.
Will now have to put it on the to listen list.
What would you prefer sitting next to you on a plane, some fat bastard that unfurls his fupa onto your lap on the way to Los Angeles or this bloke. The airlines would be too scared to offer you a change of seats too.
Are they counting “virtual wards” (aka hypochondriacs at home in bed) in the hospital statistics?
Perhaps, but hypersonics currently seems the best way to unshackle space
from the serious terrestrial infrastructure necessary to put better V-2s
on minimum energy trajectories.
Fun fact, Joe Rogan told Tim Dillon that someone offered one of his mates $US25K to get him on the show.
Rogan said the guy sounded interesting so he agreed & his mate trousered the cash.
Interesting the Tim Dillon show aired the day before the Rogan/Zepps show dropped on Spotify.
Rex, at 12.20 and 12.25:
A small piece of drivel mixed in with other drivel has been seized on by some as a hiding in plain sight marker of the NWO takeover, where foreign troops apparently have pre-approval to wander in and declare martial law on behalf of Klaus Schwab and the Stonecutters.
It’s cyclical. Happens every six months or so, usually fuelled by Facebook where some gongbanger posts something like ‘Dozens of transport planes just unloaded thousands of troops with blue berets at RAAF Darwin. I know a bloke who knows a tradie there and he saw it but wasn’t supposed to. They’re ready for deployment south! Tell everyone!’
In turn, half the ARES decides to tell their friends or employers ‘I just got a letter from the Army. Been called up for operations. I have special skill sets. Can’t say too much.’
This exact circumstance was recounted here by a recipient of one of these conversations, and who immediately put the word out that an invasion was imminent and that our own troops would assist with the invasion and subsequent population repression.
Obviously, this was and is taxi-driver grade nuffery that did zero to advance rational anti-lockdown and anti-mandate argument.
The reality is, as mentioned, that foreign troops in specific circumstances are permitted to enter and train in this country. They always have been. The US, UK and Indos have been doing this for decades.
When they are here, they are also bound by civilian law – which is why the USMC people when not out bush or in Robbo Barracks are the most impossibly polite people you’ve ever seen. The slightest fuckup or brush with the local jacks results in them being sent home, thus losing not only allowances but further promotional opportunities.
Finally, it is tremendous comedy value to see people seizing on something that’s as common as muck, and because they personally haven’t seen it before hold it up the heavens Lion King-style, convinced they’ve just split the atom.
Inshort anywhere the ADF would be deployed as part of aid to the civil power eg floods, fires, evacuations, search and rescue
The real question is, how many of those “positive” tests are real and how many are false positives?
Also, how many are repeat tests for people who are “required” to provide a test every day for work or to visit a hospital or nursing home etc?
There are too many variables in the figures that can be manipulated for there to be ANY clarity at all.

The ADF deployed to aid civil power – yes – in groups of four behind a group of four vicpol as they walked the streets of Melbourne. The well behaved citizenry meant that there was no need for the Defence personnel to walk back to back.

Well, no.
But Border Force folks are not standover goons. Same as coppers and soldiers at a checkpoint.
If someone says or does something that makes the Spidey Senses tingle, then extra scrutiny is applied.
I also have no doubt that if someone starts acting very uppity and rambunctious (I personally prefer not to try such things myself, for obvious reasons), then scrutiny will be applied harder. It is human nature on both sides, and may well be related to something nefarious or dodgy in the traveller’s care.
Not that we are going to hear about any of it in the mad, lockstepped rush by every leftist and leftist-friendly organisation in Australia to make Scomo and the Feds look bad at Election time…

Any idea what the fines are like for downloading the proof of vax form and filling it in yourself before photographing it onto you mobile, bandying it about as a fuck you to the nerds that require it.
Frank, they seem to be relatively easy to put together. I don’t know about the phone version, but if you make up a paper version, fold it and unfold it a few times and keep it in your wallet. That will make it look as though it has been used a bit. The only way to not cop a fine, is to not get caught. From what I have been told, nobody seems to look too closely at these things. Not even bosses at a lot of workplaces. It seems to be working because the only time I have heard of anyone being caught using a fraudulent document was an unfortunate woman in Germany. She needed to keep her job, of course, children, husband out of work. She panicked so badly when found out that, if I remember correctly, she and her husband committed suicide. So sad and so bloody evil. All because our RULERS are playing Bingo with our lives.
What is happening now reminds me of a scene from the original version of Clash of the Titans, where you see the Gods on Mt Olympus moving little game pieces that look like people, across a board, like chess pieces, and, depending on their mood, making the characters suffer all sorts of travails. One God purses his lips and blows at a model boat on the board and causes the real boat to sink in a storm. And so on.

Same as above, but with ‘Immediately’ at the end.
Speaking of military things being transported, I have never seen any of the Engineers’ graders in action. I’ve seen mine-protected and armoured bulldozers and excavators. Even scrapers. But never a grader. I am quite certain they are out there, but never anywhere I have been.
Love yer work, Rex.
