Another protest in Canberra this Saturday.
Not a good idea, I fear.
That’s the mistake they made in Melbourne.
The organisers got so pumped by the success of the first protest that they just kept expecting people to turn out week after week after week, and inevitably the numbers started to decline, the novelty wore off for the general public, and Maximum Leader was able to ride it out.
And do they seriously expect people to trek to Canberra again? This one will be way down on impact and will enable the tyrants to declare victory.
Normal people, by and large, aren’t attracted to politics as it is done today.
Not for nothing but Victoria, then Australia, now Canberra and Canada shows that notafan and Lowe lowe owe struth a major, major apology.

Canadian Prime Minister Blocks Domestic Travel in Effort to Stop Protests Against His Government – Compliance Minister Declares Federal Restriction Zones Where Travel Is Verboten
February 16, 2022 | Sundance
According to the ministers carrying out the Emergency War Measures Act, any Canadian citizen who travels into a restricted zone, as defined by the Canadian government, will face a fine of up to $500 on summary conviction, or imprisonment for six months for their noncompliance. An indictment against a dissident subversive comes with a $5,000 fine and up to five years in jail.
Additionally, the Canadian federal government has announced they will seize the children of any citizen who travels with a minor child for the purposes of entering one of the federally defined no-go zones. Reunification will be dependent on re-education at one of the jails, compounds or institutions of incarceration.

Fauci Admits on Camera There Is No Exit Plan for Masks | Direct Message
https://rumble.com/embed/vshinz/?pub=5f67r
The Rubin Report – Published February 16, 2022
Rumble — Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks about Dr. Fauci’s lack of a plan for mask mandates, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki requesting censorship laws and Justin Trudeau’s unearthed dictator comments. First, Dave shares a clip of Anthony Fauci being asked about the future of the plane mask mandate. Fauci’s answer reveals that there appears to be no metric to evaluate public policy and that he appears to have no exit strategy or plan for the mask mandate. Meanwhile, at the University of Reno students are having a mask mandate protest because the mask mandate is being repealed. Next, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki surprised an interviewer when she appeared to want the U.S. government to create laws that restrict speech that is harmful, but legal. Does YouTube care about the 1st amendment at all? Why would a tech company demand social media censorship be imposed on it? Things are not getting easier for Justin Trudeau. After passing the Emergencies Act to squash the freedom convoy vaccine mandate protest, old footage of him praising the dictatorship of China has gone viral online. Canada struggles to deal with the Canadian truckers as numerous tow trucks have refused to remove the trucker convoy.
He fights Fascists!
Yes very confronting but he was reasoned enough to admit it. Not many of his ilk around these days. I admire him for this.

The man wrongly identified as Cleo Smith’s alleged kidnapper by the Seven Network has had a victory in the Western Australia supreme court, after suing the network for defamation.
On Wednesday the WA supreme court chief justice, Peter Quinlan, read out consent orders in favour of Terrance Flowers, a 27-year-old Nyamal man from the town of Karratha.
Flowers sued the network in November after his photograph was mistakenly used in Seven’s broadcasts, an online article, a tweet and a Facebook post about the arrest of a different man. The man arrested has a similar name to that used by Flowers on Facebook where he used his mother’s maiden name, Kelly.

Origin to close Eraring in 3 years. Eraring and Liddell produce 30% of NSW’s power. NSW requires about 12000MW daily. There is 25000 installed wind and solar in NSW. In the last 24 hours w&s produced 18% or 2160 MW. Renewables are entirely sustained by subsidies. Coal cannot compete because when the renewables are producing, about 20% of the time, usually in the middle of the day when demand is lowest, coal cannot sell it’s electricity and must buy large scale energy certificates from the renewables. The subsidies, certificates and preferential access to the market are why renewables are cheaper then coal.
We’re fucked.

I wonder though, would having ten people protesting enable the tyrants to declare victory any more than having zero people protesting?
Fair question Hugh. Personally, I think it’s easier for the tyrants to make a big issue out of the fact that an organised protest has attracted only ten people than the fact that no protest has been organised. In part at least, if they start prancing around saying “look, no protest”, they’re inviting a response – the unknown is always more scary than the known, and they may not want to risk provoking another big turnout – and their provocation might well create more enthusiasm for one more big effort than can be maintained by week after week expectations that people will front up.
It’s true that if no protest is organised then something else needs to be done to keep making it clear that people are angry. Social media, letters to the press, maybe posters put up at shopping centres and public transport hubs etc, are the kinds of things that keep people conscious of the issue. The big protests can then be kept for occasions where there’s a special motivating factor (e.g. Maximum Leader’s replica of Hitler’s 1933 Enabling Bill being before the State Parliament), or where there may be special impact (e.g. if Melbourne had been handled properly there could have been a big protest around the time of the Australian Open).
So, no mask mandate removal for Vic.

Shocked by people exclaiming of their shock. Specifically, those people’s shock at an animal, whose efficient design made it almost unnecessary to evolve for 400 million years, doing what it is designed to do.
It’s a big fuck-off shark. Sharks operate by swimming up to things at speed, chomping on those things with automatically-replacing giant teeth, eating bits of it then swimming off.
Surely this would form part of the risk management process that goes through people’s minds. Of course, lots of people go swimming in the ocean and aren’t eaten. But when it does happen, I can’t understand why people are shocked by it.
There was some nancy local mayor on the teev this morning, describing his shock in a ‘How could this have possibly happened?’ manner. This was followed by a declaration that if caught, the naughty shark would be tagged and ‘taken further out to sea’.
I will venture to say that this is the exact mentality of someone who catches a taipan in their backyard, and then releases it on their nature strip – confident to their very soul that there is no way whatsoever that the same taipan will make its own way back to where it was found.

Was in the bush again for a few days. No connection to anything as usual.
I go straight to the Cat to receive my News fix. No point going anywhere else, the best links and research are found right here.
However!, after speed reading a few pages, I find I missed out on an EPIC histrionic run. sigh……………..
I wouldn’t bet on it.
“Their civil liberties association has been very vocal in their criticism.
Unlike ours, which have been complete lapdogs.”
Canada actually has a robust conservative civil liberties organisation……The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF).
I think I paid an SGIO levy for a few years. How about a refund Simon?
RCMP response to this threat of violence? Eh?
But if a group showed up to protect the place of business, you can bet the RCMP would be all over them to ensure they weren’t breaking any laws.
Fuck the police.
Yes.
Yes. Kudos to the organisers for keeping the ‘pedo fuckin’ pedos in government’, ‘rescue the children from the tunnels’, ‘abolish speed governors and logbooks for heavy vehicles’, ‘bring back Denis Walter for Carols by Candelight’ and various 5G and chemtrail-related enthusiasts away from the microphones.
It’s too important to be hijacked by those cockheads.
Half a box of Heytesbury Chardonnay and we’ll call it square.
Yes, but even the liberal one is actually half decent, unlike ours.
If she’s still in government at the time, that will surely be the final nail in her coffin.
(That’s a metaphor, btw, ASIO.)
How long has pony girl had the colour through the hair ?

Purely a token gesture as the crims will have fake IDs anyway.
NSW announces major COVID rule changes
NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet is announcing changes to the state’s COVID-19 restrictions.
From Friday, the two square metre density limit will be scrapped and QR code check-ins will only be required for nightclubs as well as music festivals with more than 1000 attendees.
Singing and dancing will be allowed in all venues.
From February 25, face masks will only be mandatory across a more limited range of venues including public transport, planes, airports and hospitals.
According to the Palaszczuk News Network*, as it has been dubbed by journos, since August 2021.
* Taking a leaf out of Donald Trump’s book, Palaszczuk now makes announcements directly to the punters via social media rather than through an unkind and antagonistic press. Funny, she loved the cameras so much during the pandemic. Anyway, having brought all sympathetic journalists into her press team, she now finds that those left aren’t that enamoured of her.
Exactly. Nature in action, doing natural instinct stuff.
The swimmer’s last moments were horrific. But the poor bastard never gave up: despite being rag-dolled and clearly terribly injured, when the shark lost its grip for a second, he/she instantly started to try to swim for the shore.
Also instinct.
Also from Unherd.
Justin Trudeau’s phoney dictatorship
Adelaide Airport.
West End Draught.
Natasha Stott Despoja.
Port Pirie.
Mike Rann.
The inability to obtain a pizza on a Tuesday.
Stephen Kernahan.
I don’t believe that it is Gillardesque ‘hyperbowl’ to suggest that Fidel’s putrid child’s tyranny represents an inflection point in the development of Western democracy or at least Anglosphere democracy.
But change will have to be forced, it won’t come from any element of the political class.
Watching the Canadian Parliamentary debates is shocking. Absolutely no displayed awareness of the momentous issues at hand and the consequences of their refusal to suspend business as usual and fight for their people.
If by some chance there is ever another election permitted in Trudy’s reich, candidates are going to face some searching scrutiny by the non-public sector demos.
The sooner Kangaroo Island secedes, the better.
Michael Smith News. Didn’t we point the big finger at South Africa for similar behavior a few years ago?

It’s a list of the admitted ‘side effects’ of these Govt Mandated Jabs.
When you watch it do think of rosie/notafan, JC and others who made it their mission to insult those who dared warn against the Jabs.
You know, all those really smart people who kept telling you which actual experts to ignore because those actual experts weren’t doing good for those Big Pharma Companies that JC, rosie/notafan et al are so proudly invested in.
Ah yes, those actual, frontline doctor experts (who rosie/notafan so happily spits on), who made a living out of keeping people alive, unlike those non-medical professional propagandists who make a living helping Big Pharma make a killing, killing people.

To be fair, Rann was a pom via NZ.
Also, he was gifted the rule of South Aussie by a supposedly conservative rural independent, years before the rest of the country knew that sort of thing could happen.
Ours was a weirdo by the name of Peter Lewis, known as “the mouth of the Murray”.
Oakeshott & Windsor later brought the joy of being South Australia to the whole country.

Canadian Hacker Brags About Hacking GiveSendGo Donor Files, Meanwhile Canadian State Media Brag About Doxing Donors and Canadian Banks Begin Blocking Withdrawals

Daughter said that the protesters were told no law-breaking, no violence and no interacting with the disrupters. She saw quite a few trying to bait people early in the march, but they were roundly ignored and moved on.
Protestors were also warned about nutters trying to hijack the event. Perhaps organisers were particularly careful in their choice of speakers.
I’ve seen various public mouths deriding the protestors as extremists trying to push their individual agendas. Nothing could be further from the truth. Those people were united in heart and mind. D tells of strangers greeting and hugging strangers, thanking those who had travelled great distances to be there. Uplifting.
She still hasn’t come down from the high of being part of it all.
Is the list still visible anywhere online? I’d like to see my name in print.
Also, when do I get a call from the ABC?
oaf, it’s on twitter.

Same in the Darwin protests Delta. A couple of noisy sheepdogs rolling around the outside of the crowd, who were robustly advised to go fuck themselves by the normal people.

Correct…..Canadian Meghan Murphy, on her youtube channel, yesterday uploaded a very good discussion with a lawyer from the JCCF, Jay Cameron. They discuss Trudeau invoking the Emergencies Act.
Also, Canada has a Bill of Rights.
We’ll see what happens.

I’d be interested to know if the Emergencies Act enables the ruling party to suspend elections….it probably does.
Less adderall, srr.
Couldn’t agree more. The Speaker seems more suited to teaching kindergarten, focusing on getting his pet student Trudeau out of tough spots, and the members are either asleep or playing Super Mario on their smart phones.

QR check-ins to go in NSW and VICTORISTAN.
Better late than never, but it is certainly late.
Knuckles, my next book is being launched at the Darwin Aviation Museum at 5pm today…come along and have a drink on me if you like.
Contact tracing was dead last month. Its corpse was being flogged by the faithful and fearful, hoping that by genuflecting before the strange square image the covid monster would pass them by.
It died under the weight of its own futility.
If only our governments and their idiotic and dangerous “mandates” would do the same.
QR checkin and masks should go NOW, not on the 25th.
What magical thinking has it out until next week?
A covid particle hiding beneath someone’s bed? Or, more likely, to make the now obviously naked CHOs look like they’re at least wearing a G string?
On sharks.
Back in the day I was a divemaster and scuba instructor. We used to teach how to handle sharks if encountered. Turn and face; stand your ground, don’t act like a fish in distress etc.
One of the worst things to be in shark territory is a surfer. Sharks looks up, and sees a white oval shape – like the underside of a fish. Has a fin at the back – like a fish. Has a thing (human legs) flapping each side – like a fish in distress. Shark thinks “lunch” and goes up and take a bite.
Bad naughty shark, doing what comes naturally.
Joining twitter is too high a price for the thrill of being doxxed by loonies 🙂
“What magical thinking has it out until next week?”
It’s about control….obeying government…they decide everything.
They have come for him before – leading to the end of his formal teaching career. For years they have defamed him, ridiculed him….and feared him. I don’t know how long this remarkable man can continue to exercise his incredible intellect at the load that he does.
But he will fight them to the very end. He is such an inspiration to so many – especially young men. God keep him strong.
With Liddell and Eraring gone and rub and tug putting the kibosh on the Kurri gas plant what is happening in the UK under slothman and in Europe dependent on Putin’s gas will happen here. Some excerpts from the UK/Eurotrash predicament:

Yep…Jordan’s great friend, Professor Gad Saad, who is the author of “The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense” (a book I highly recommend) uploaded a video on Youtube yesterday. He states very calmly that he and his wife are now seriously thinking about leaving Canada because of Fuhrer Trudeau. Professor Saad has tenure at Concordia University in Montreal…..he and his family escaped the civil war in Lebanon back in 1975 (his family were virtually the last Jews remining in Lebanon). He basically said that Canada is over.
They had some uni mong on the ABCcess talking about how peoples sensory experiences had changed during covid.
One of the examples of deprivation/change was “People no longer pick up avocados in the shops to check them before purchase”…
Which leads me to the conclusion one of the most radical ways we can cause Karens and Kens to out themselves is the old fashioned hand shake.
If they are terrified of fondling fruit in the supermarket an outstretched hand will be the visual equivalent of presenting the meat and 2 veg or squashed wombat at them.

They’re late to the party.
My bank branch has for at least 2 years flatly refused to accept a deposit without full ID of the person making the deposit.
They actually turn away a person holding a significant commercial cash deposit.
At some level aren’t reports to the taxman of deposits required?
In the US I think it’s $10,000.

On sharks.”
Growing up we were taught…
1. never swim at dawn or dusk,
2. never swim near fish or fishermen,
3. never swim with dogs,
4. never swim near estuaries; and
5. avoid swimming on overcast days.
Database of world shark attacks.
Some surprising (to me) info there.
Silver linings.
One of my pet peeves.
Squashed wombat.
Heh.
