Why are all of our pollies, well almost all, close to 99% of them so much in favour of massive migration? I know it props up the housing market, depresses wages for the least skilled and makes GDP look better than it is in reality. However they must see the consequences of it here and overseas, especially England, Sweden etc. Are they really that committed to it, or are they all too scared of being called racists?
The Japs strictly control migration, now the Swiss are having a referendum on it. I’m sure the majority of the native born here aren’t that keen on it, yet both major parties just want to open the floodgates.

Johnny, it is a big place, massive in fact but most of it is pretty poor country to permanently live in, little water, poor soils, our farmers and graziers do an amazing job, you must know that. Are you playing the ingenue? Are you hoping for a lot of diversity enhancement in your neighbourhood? After all, around 95% of all the diversity enhancement suppliers end up in our major cities, and as big as they are, is that a good thing? Don’t you miss the days when carjackings and home invasions were extremely rare? When you could walk down a street in the city and not feel like you were in Beijing or Mumbai? I do.

I suspect you’ve misunderstood the Swiss action on immigration. The Swiss fertility rate is one in the lowest in the world around 1.46 – we’ll below the replacement
rate. Where is immigration there now? If the population is dropping due to the 1.46 number, they could actually be increasing immigration. Also, maintaining the population at 10 million may have little to do with immigration.
Ignore some of the no immigration snobs here as most of them are innumerate loudmouth idiots. With population well below replacement the only way to continue the welfare state is through immigration and or tons of robotics and AI. The latter are being developed but not fast enough to catch up to a nation of old geezers.
Via Tim Blair, a tale of woe.
Dovetails nicely with the ’15 minute city’
And the antiquated idea that a large population makes a secsesfull civilisation (big Australia).
It’s not antiquated. It’s true.
We are nowhere near developed, oddly, that’s how the “workers” party likes it – devoid of primary and secondary industries.
Nuclear arms and automation can make up for a lot in terms of military might and industrial output but we will still for the most part remain undeveloped.
We’ve ruined immigration given the poor economic development possibilities set down in law; we also wasted a generation of men in WWI and now have silly policies that literally subsidise divorced one – two children homes.
Australia could have booming inland agriculture with more infrastructure (particularly cheap nuclear power) and an a world class alpine region with beautiful cities and expressways.
We’d rather leave it to mobs of feral camels and goats.
What a waste.

Melbourne is notorious for having four seasons in a day, and its fickle weather could be putting people at greater risk of cancer and other conditions.
A Monash University study has found that exposure to fluctuating temperatures may alter 64 genes linked to serious health issues like breast cancer and schizophrenia.
Lead researcher Professor Yuming Guo told the Herald Sun while short-term impacts of weather on someone’s health were well documented, this study was the first to delve into long-term changes it causes to genes.
“In general, we’re finding that several … changes are occurring to genes are being impacted because of this (the weather), especially ones linked to mental health disorders,” he said.
The study analysed 479 blood samples taken from women who were exposed changing temperatures and conditions over the span of a week.
The results showed that after the exposure there were significant changes to genes linked to breast and colorectal cancer, schizophrenia, depression and bipolar disorder.
Professor Guo said it showed how important it was to wear warm clothes outside if it’s cold or have a comfortable temperature in a car or home.
“For Victorians, we need to take care of ourselves,” Professor Guo said.
“Sometimes Melbourne is very unstable in temperature so you also need to prepare properly with some forewarning (of the weather).”
This week alone, Melbourne sweltered through days reaching maximums of 35C while on others the temperature has only reached a top of 18C.
A similar study led by Professor Guo looked into the impacts of bushfires and air pollution.
“We should avoid exposing ourselves to wildfire smoke if possible, it has big impact for humans and its impact is greater than the temperatures,” he explained.
Such drastic weather patterns and its subsequent health implications had increased in recent years due to the ongoing threat of climate change, he said.
“If we understand the relationship between fluctuating temperatures and health implications, then we can give some policy change for the future to try mitigate the effects,” he said.
Professor Guo said he hoped the findings could inspire further action on climate change.
“We can provide robust evidence to the government and they can take action based on the evidence and create some policy for change,” he said.
“They should have the confidence to make policy and hopefully in the future do some assessment to see if that policy is effective or not.”

his last wedding was quite an extravaganza
Canberra Wedding: David Sharaz & Alexandra Craig
At the risk of coming across as a tawdry gossip site, or more than usual, St. Brittany of Canberra’s new beau David Sharaz comes across as more of a pansy than anyone had previously thought.
He is from the UK originally, so that explains part of it, as does this:
I’d been off medications for a little while, I’ve gone back on because I started to feel that loss. I’m very close to women and I don’t have a lot of male friends, for some reason, and I’ve realised my father was probably the only male friend that I had
David was married in March 2018 to somebody who seems well-born, Alexandra Craig (and two cats), but it was a very short marriage indeed, and he was soon found to be in the arms of, and nestled in the ample bosom of, RAPE victim Liberal Party staffer Brittany Higgins, the hope of our time, the light of the way, and provided much comfort to her in her hour of dire trauma internalisation need, specifically by planning and plotting out how the story would be broken to the media:
He and Higgins spent a month compiling and planning the revelations and chose to take the initial story to Lisa Wilkinson at Channel 10 and Samantha Maiden at news.com.au. Other media, including senior gallery reporters at the ABC and commercial media, were provided with a dossier, including a timeline, lists of people who were aware of the allegations, photos of Higgins with politicians, suggested events where networks might find video footage of her in their files, notes about meetings, and copies of emails, texts and other relevant communications.
It was a successful operation, and they didn’t seem too interested in going to the police about it, considering that RAPE is a very serious criminal offence, the media shitshow was the number one priority.
Meanwhile David’s ex-wife has a sad story to tell, with hints of financial impropriety:
People having comfortable temperatures in their homes, I wonder what might be influencing those decisions.
You know the people who can’t afford a nice Nissan leaf who might be worrying about paying the next household electricity bill.
Btw, Was it someone here who mentioned a young Climate Warrior continually turning off the family’s air con?

The following poem was inspired by a conversation with Mike Yeadon. We have both independently noticed the increasing use of terms like “bungled” and “blunder” to describe the crimes against humanity perpetrated under the cloak of COVID. Even well-meaning people who share similar values and goals sometimes fall into this trap being set by those preparing their parachute jump from culpability.
This Anthem to Justice is my attempt to succinctly chronicle the calculated intentionality underlying the COVID tyranny, and I ask your help in spreading the clear message that #MistakesWereNOTMade. Please share this poem and keep it handy for the next time anybody uses verbiage to gloss over the atrocities committed. Let’s make 2023 the Year of Accountability so none dare repeat such acts in the future.

The governors quashed the rights.

The bankers installed the control grid.
The stooges laundered the money.

This was calculated.

This was articulated.
This was manufactured.
This was falsified.
This was coerced.
This was inflicted.
This was denied.
We were terrorized.
We were isolated.

We were dehumanized.
We were wounded.
We were killed.
Don’t let them get away with it.
Don’t let them get away with it.

Government Data exposes the Dangerous Reality of COVID Vaccines: Millions have ‘Died Suddenly’ due to the adverse effect they have on the Heart
Let’s hope something comes out of the
Florida COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Accountability Roundtable
With Governor DeSantis, Florida Surgeon General Dr. Ladapo, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya & Bret Weinstein.
However
Although the BMJ are not happy
On 13 December 2022, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis held what he ominously called a “Covid-19 mRNA vaccine accountability roundtable.”1 The event featured his surgeon general, Joseph Ladapo, and Martin Kulldorff and Jay Bhattacharya, authors of the Great Barrington Declaration and now senior scholars at the Brownstone Institute, a libertarian think tank.
The roundtable was a high visibility opportunity for the governor to escalate his opposition to covid-19 vaccines. As Dylan Scott, health care reporter for Vox noted, the roundtable was part of an intensifying campaign by DeSantis to “discredit the covid-19 vaccines, the drug companies that produced them, and the public health officials and government leaders who urged Americans to get them.”2
The event did not come out of the blue. DeSantis and Ladapo have previously alarmed the public health community, both in Florida and nationwide, with their sceptical statements about covid-19 vaccines and their suggestion that the public has been misled about the value of vaccination.3 In February 2021, Ladapo called universal covid-19 vaccination “a chimera” and questioned the vaccine’s safety and effectiveness.4 In March 2022, the two men stood side by side as Ladapo proudly announced that Florida would be the first US state not to recommend covid-19 vaccination for children.5
DeSantis ramped up the rhetoric even further at the roundtable, announcing the formation of a statewide grand jury investigation into alleged “crimes and wrongdoings” related to the vaccines, though he offered few details on what the jury would examine.
Asked what he thought DeSantis hopes to accomplish with the investigation, Anthony Fauci, outgoing White House medical adviser, told The Hill: “I don’t have a clue … what he’s asking for. I mean, we have a vaccine that, unequivocally, is highly effective and safe and has saved literally millions of lives.”

They funded at least part of his purchase of Twatter, and are now having buyer’s remorse. I wonder how many will take a huge loss on their Teslas, so they can boast to their woke friends that they had “stuck it to the maaaan”?

Common Sense Cracks the Sky: GOP Governor Ditches Degree Requirements for Most Government Jobs
What does a college degree mean? The answer, it seems, is “less and less.”
In Utah, they’re devaluing it even more: The previously prestigious piece of paper is no longer needed for most government jobs.
On December 13th, the Office of Gov. Spencer. J. Cox issued a press release noting a new approach:
Utah Gov. Spencer Cox announced the state’s efforts to eliminate the requirement for bachelor’s degrees in its employee recruitment and emphasized similar support by local governments and the private sector.
“Degrees have become a blanketed barrier-to-entry in too many jobs,” Gov. Cox said. “Instead of focusing on demonstrated competence, the focus too often has been on a piece of paper. We are changing that.”
Thanks to evolving efforts, 98 percent of the 1,080 jobs in Utah’s executive branch — that is, 1,058 — don’t anymore require a degree.
As it turns out, experience is an apt teacher:
Instead, the state’s hiring managers and hiring committees consider comparable experience as equal to educational qualifications at every step in the evaluation and recruiting process.
The proposed effects of such a loosening:
Gov. Cox said that eliminating bachelor’s degree requirements will broaden access to qualified talent and expand employment opportunities to attract diverse candidates, including underrepresented groups. This can lead to more jobs for candidates in rural areas, more opportunities for those returning to work after an extended absence through the state’s Returnship program, and more opportunities for apprenticeships and other on-the-job training opportunities facilitated by the Department of Workforce Services.
Interesting reading the Quadrant (ie ‘spook’ funded) article about Yassmin.
She apparently hopped on the band wagon that white authors cannot write about non-white characters, straight authors about gays etc.
Reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend who is in the theatre world. He spoke of how this attitude is suffocating theatre. People cannot present or explain anything to anyone – ultimately they can’t share an experience to anyone who hasn’t experienced it already.
It has created a theatrical world where credibility is accorded nor to identity than talent as a writer. He told me of a ‘play’ he saw that was essentially o long whining monologue. As theatre it was a wretched unimaginative piece, devoid of imagery, tension, verbal flourish, or any other of the tools in a playwright’s kit.
The audience’s role was to simply accept every accusation levelled against them as fact, not being qualified to question anything.
Shakespeare wrote about kings for cobblers and bakers. The presumption!
Yassmin is like that piece my friend saw, with the same flaw in her thinking: while arguing that other people cannot have their own opinion about her, she does not hesitate to form opinions about them, and not just to hold her opinions but to make it her mission to impose her judgements upon them.
Properly Yassmin has no business talking to black Muslim woman (and whatever else arbitrary dimensions of identity by which she defines herself – I doubt she could be bothered with confining herself further by levels of intelligence, physical attractiveness, even height) about being a black Muslim woman (and whatever else arbitrary dimensions of identity by which she defines herself).

2023
– the year that Greta Thunberg’s stolen childhood was found strapped to a tray-body ute at Kulgera Roadhouse
For clarity, the ute is a factory standard arrangement, with the exception of the steel tray. Four seater, but sports rather than dual cab with suicide doors (ideal for loading golf clubs in but not shopping).
No bull bar, no trillion-candlepower driving lights, no redback spider gear knob, no Holden stickers, no set of dog balls hanging from the tow bar, no Akubras or cattle horns glued to the bonnet.
No ‘F off we’re full’ stickers, no CB radio, no full-width mudguards with tassels on the bottom, no copy of the Constitution in the glovebox. Just a decent diesel 4WD ute which will get the job done.
NB: For the egg_roomba – yes it is manual, and yes I will look out for little red cars and jelly men when I get to Barrow Creek.

There’s that old saying, look at what they do, not what they say.
So when someone spends weeks arguing for gay marriage day after day after day. But when YOU were locked down and deprived of freedom, they just said, when prodded, “Yeah, I don’t agree with that” and then when the government takes billions of tax dollars, and borrowed dollars and tries to use that to shove a concoction in your arm, and the only response you get from “Mr Freedom” is when prodded “Yeah, I don’t agree with that. I ALREADY said I don’t agree with that, what more do you want from me”?
You get the picture .
It was never about “freedom”.

I’m sure the gubbmint will make EVs work properly.
And renewable energy. Another tale of woe from New York Post editorial today:
Brace yourself for mountains of pain and misery under Gov. Hochul’s zero-emissions fantasy plan (via Lucianne)
It’s pure delusion. Consider: By 2030, just seven years from now, the law requires a 40% cut in emissions over 1990 levels, and 85% by 2050. Yet as of 2019, emissions had dropped only 7% despite years of effort.
RTWT. I wish our newspapers would say this sort of stuff.
The shift to wind and solar also means other new zero-emissions power sources will be needed for when the wind doesn’t blow or the sun won’t shine.
Yet get this: There are no such commercial sources available at the moment. The plan itself admits a projected shortfall in electric supplies “will require identifying and developing solutions for dispatchable technologies.” Imagine planning the state’s energy future on a hope that some new technology will be discovered.
No wonder critics doubt the state can meet even its 2030 goals, let alone those beyond. Gavin Donohue, who heads the Independent Power Producers of New York, says it’ll take pure “magic” to make the plan work. And if it fails, and supplies run short, New York faces crippling blackouts, which could cost lives and property damage, as Empire Center energy expert James Hanley notes. That could cascade even to areas outside the state.

The Ulu?u Statement is about sovereignty. Anthony Albanese says he wants to enact the statement. It is impossible to have two sovereignties governing one nation – Australia. Here is an excerpt from the Statement. We should all contemplate it before voting for the Voice.
“This sovereignty is a spiritual notion: the ancestral tie between the land, or ‘mother nature’, and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were born therefrom, remain attached thereto, and must one day return thither to be united with our ancestors. This link is the basis of the ownership of the soil, or better, of sovereignty. It has never been ceded or extinguished, and co-exists with the sovereignty of the Crown. ……. These dimensions of our crisis tell plainly the structural nature of our problem. This is the torment of our powerlessness.” https://ulurustatemdev.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/UluruStatementfromtheHeartPLAINTEXT.pdf
Aboriginal people have a voice and elected representatives who are Aboriginal. We do need to address the inequities faced by Aboriginal people. I personally would love to see them flourish. But this constitutionally-enforced Voice will not solve the problems – it can only divide us all. Mr Albanese I beg you to read and digest the statement before you once again made a pledge to enact it fully. This is just an emotionally-led folly and you are trying to coax us all into voting for it.

The Aboriginal tribes are just johny come latelies. The real original humans came from Africa. We all have a common human starting point. All branches of the human race developed at different rates. In addition to the pain cased by the British perhaps we should be grateful that they started the ongoing evolution that has given us our present lifestyles. Every one from every background can join in our success. We all can lift ourselves up. Personal effort can see every and anyone rise to the top of society. We don’t need a voice, we need to help the Aboriginals to allow them to properly join Australia on an equal footing with the rest of society.

The point Is that All Humans evolved in Africa and All our ancestors spread out from there.
Whilst my ancient ancestors were hunting game in Europe after leaving Africa, the ancestors of Australian Aboriginal people were making their way very, very, slowly overland to Australia.
No humans evolved here in Australia.
The ancestors of Aboriginal people just wandered into Australia and may well have pushed other earlier immigrants further down the Continent as it was connected by land all the way to Tasmania back then.
The Bradshaw rock paintings are exceptional and very interesting.

To address the problem of nuclear waste and energy shortages there is already a solution available. Batteries made of depleted uranium have alredy been made. Of course governments wouldn’t want this as they last too long (thousands of years) and government wants money every day to squander. Most batteries are the most expensive form of energy available. Seriously though what has government solved? I recall hearing somewhere “a mediocre politician with an idea is the most dangerous thing ever”. That covers 99.99 of politicians today.

To be clear, Utah isn’t the only state rethinking college degree requirements.
From Campus Reform:
Utah follows in the footsteps of Maryland, whose Governor, Larry Hogan, announced in March “the launch of a multi-pronged, first-in-the-nation workforce development initiative to formally eliminate the four-year college degree requirement from thousands of state jobs.”
Compliments of Utah’s news release, the Republican governor
“affirmed both his support for those who choose a degree-seeking route and his commitment to Utah’s world-class colleges and universities.” However, he “emphasized that a degree should not be the only way to get a good paying job or have a fulfilling career.”

He was selling them live, but I saw a boiling pot and asked him to cook them for me. He said he was fine doing it but explained that the rules he lived under didn’t allow him to sell them cooked. In other words he was disobeying the rule. He was on a decent sized boat, the pot was on top of a Primus cooker and the risk would be as close to zero as you could get, yet there was a rule, which if he obeyed would have cut his sales by more than half he said.

How can an intrinsically racist proposal embedded in our constitution be good for Australia as a nation?
