Farmers, rural Victorians protest Premier Jacinta Allan at Reset Victoria Rally in BendigoHundreds of frustrated farmers and regional Victorians are protesting Jacinta Allan in Bendigo, taking aim at green-energy transmission lines and a Big Build program focused on Melbourne.
Fuming farmers and regional Victorians say the Allan government is treating them like “second class citizens” as they push back against plans to build renewable energy infrastructure across country communities.
Hundreds of frustrated regional Victorians, both young and old, gathered in Premier Jacinta Allan’s seat of Bendigo East on Friday, demanding the government halt plans to run transmission lines and renewable energy projects on private farmland.
Ms Allan was speaking at a Rural Press Club of Victoria event in Bendigo.
Protesters held up signs reading “The Allan ideology is destroying Victoria”, “No lines, no turbines” and “Labor stop the spend”, with some branding the premier “Joan Kirner 2.0”.
Waubra residents Loretta Greco and Paul Greco said country Victorians were being treated as “second class citizens”.
Mr Greco said while the government was forging ahead with its $34.5 billion Suburban Rail Loop, country residents were “getting nothing”.
“Country people are carrying the burden for all of this renewable stuff, I don’t see any wind turbines going through Melbourne,” he said.
“City people get all the fancy roads and the massive infrastructure projects.”
Cattle and grain farmer Jason Barratt said the Ms Allan was ignoring country Victoria and “pushing an ideology” on the regions.
“We are farmers and we farm food and fibre — we don’t farm electricity and we won’t farm electricity,” he said.
“We’re sick of being pushed over by the government and we’re pushing back.
“It’s beyond belief the contempt that Jacinta Allan shows for us.”

For sure Munted is using chatgpt since he hasn’t had an original thought in his entire life; not even by accident!
Speaking of which, I just ask chatgpt how many people did Mohammed kill?
It told me Mo killed nobody.
So, I pressed on and reminded it of Mecca.
“Oh no” it said, “that was a political struggle” and then told me Mo lost 14 men in that fight.
So I said “but isn’t killing someone murder”
Chatgpt says “nup because it was a political struggle and existential threat to Mo to save himself”

The uncompromising egotism that tore the Yes campaign apartShireen Morris’s account of the failed Indigenous referendum is a melange of self-justification, ‘We was robbed’ rhetoric, conspiracy theories and just downright hate. I happen to be one of the ‘villains’ she particularly – and at great length – reviles.

Every conflict spawns self-serving accounts by protagonists. Caesar’s Commentaries were a job application to be emperor. Napoleon penned a nauseatingly hagiographic autobiography. Winston Churchill wrote an entire library congratulating himself.
Broken Heart by voice referendum bit-player Shireen Morris falls into the same wearisome category. Its account of the failed referendum is a melange of self-justification, “We was robbed” rhetoric, conspiracy theories and just downright hate.
Hate is central. Morris reviles anyone who did not support the voice formulation word by word and without question. Peter Dutton presents as a deceptive troglodyte. Nationals leader David Littleproud is a backsliding reactionary.
But the people she really detests are the so-called Con Cons – constitutional conservatives – who devised the modest original version of the voice alongside Indigenous leader Noel Pearson.
The sin of the Con Cons was subsequently to critique the official referendum draft. Morris accuses them of betrayal, dishonesty, political tribalism, conspiracy, deception and stupidity.
She particularly and at great length reviles Jesuit constitutional lawyer Frank Brennan and me. Apparently we are a two-man team who cynically dynamited the voice from within and continue to control a negative public debate.
Frank Brennan gets a genuinely bigoted descriptor as “Black Robe”, a derisive reference to his status as a Jesuit priest.
Brennan gets a genuinely bigoted descriptor as “Black Robe”, a derisive reference to his status as a Jesuit priest. I alternate between an evil genius and a slobbering idiot. Apparently, at 66 I am “well into old age”. Oh well. My children would agree.
This is where the most eccentric of Morris’s many conspiracy theories emerges. Brennan and Craven led a Catholic conspiracy to nobble church support for the referendum. Ordinary Catholics were browbeaten by Brennan’s status as a priest. There are thousands of Catholic priests in Australia. On the odd occasion Brennan and I actually agree with each other, we would be lucky to shift our bishops with dynamite.
But for every set of villains, there has to be a hero. It is not surprising that the hero of the referendum for Morris, a failed Labor political candidate, is the Albanese government. Its conduct was white as laundered snow.
Her central claim is that Anthony Albanese always was winsomely open to compromise. It was the evil Coalition that refused to play ball. This is as much against the evidence as extraterrestrial construction of the pyramids.
Albanese unswervingly committed to his referendum on election night. Then, he unilaterally announced words he said were open to change but never were. When the Opposition Leader and opposition Indigenous Australians spokesman Julian Leeser were summoned to Albanese’s office, there were lectures, not discussion.
Somehow, I don’t think I’ll bother with Shireen Morris’s book.

@Finlay. Shudder at the thought.
Hmmm why is WA Premier Roger Cook having a public spat with Albo?
Couldn’t be anything to do with the fact that WA heads to the polls in 6 months and he doesn’t want to be associating with a leader who is in free-fall?
I have a theory; it can’t be tested, as it’s just a theory. The Demonrats not only don’t care about the debt and more deficit spending, they are actively doing all they can to increase both. They realize that at some point in time, the markets will go into repudiation mode, and then the American public will be given no choice but to raise taxes to punitive levels that will sustain both the debt and much, much larger outlays.
The Demons will welcome a debt crisis with open arms.

Who is shireen Morris and why is her opinion of any importance?
Countries that rack up debts that they are unable to repay invite revolutions.
The revolutionaries then cancel the debt after taking power.
Craven’s piece is sublime, a blistering and ruthless takedown of Morris.
My issue is this, I suspect Craven, Brennan, Leeser and other Voice moderates all knew prior to the referendum that the Voice had been captured by far-left activists such as Morris. Yet they said nothing until after the campaign failed. It took the ordinary men and women of this country to see through Morris, Langton, Mayo and others.
Thanks to the(absent for some time) Armadillo recommendation my bet on Cackles running for President came in at 15:1.
The odds for actually being elected are sort of even between her and Trump so I’ll sit that one out.

I wonder if others are plagued with the awful feeling of foreboding I get as the world descends further into contradictions and social upheaval?
After I finish my chores at the farm or my morning walk in the city I catch up with the news of the world – almost always through “social media” as this often provides the deepest analysis and useful leads on further research. I do, of course, access the MSM both the print and tele media. But my “go to” sources are through the wonderful internet.
These days the analysis of the likes of Victor Davis Hanson, Jordan Peterson, Musk, Robert Malone, Douglas Murray, Zero Hedge, Matt Goodwin, Jim Rickards, James Kunstler and others all recoil from the abyss we seem to be approaching. Yet the West seems too cemented into the belief that our civilisation cannot fall to take any required action to avert the current and approaching upheavals.
It is the sort of situation where you simply can’t avert your gaze. Even the joys of my country environment can’t dispel the foreboding…..

And something will take advantage of those contradictions and upheavals, in fact is is feeding off it as I write, that ‘something’ begins with ‘I’ and ends with ‘m’.
Looks as though north QLD’s push for statehood may have been rekindled by Labor’s neglect under Palaszczuk.
With twice the population of Tasmania and producing 25% more wealth per capita than SE QLD but with essential infrastructure well below the standard southerners take for granted, they may have a point this time.
It is the sort of situation where you simply can’t avert your gaze. Even the joys of my country environment can’t dispel the foreboding…..
I don’t do boding of any sort, fore or aft. It’s a waste of time and energy. One should, of course, stand up for what’s right, but there’s no way one man or woman can stop the herd of lemmings rushing to destruction.
We are what we read. Selection effect. As a wise friend told me decades ago: read those who disagree with each other.

Re the possibility of Nth Queensland breaking away as a new state, it is also time for NE NSW to revive its breakaway movement, but leaving Newcastle as part of the residual NSW (aka Newcastle, Sydney and Wollongong).

More than 70% of astronauts experience a phenomenon known as Spaceflight Associated Neuro-Ocular Syndrome, or SANS, according to NASA. The syndrome can have “a constellation of symptoms, including these changes in vision,” said Matt Lyon, MD, director of the MCG Center for Telehealth. …
“We are not entirely sure what causes these issues with vision, but we suspect it has to do with a shift in cerebrospinal fluid in the optic nerve sheath. On Earth, gravity pushes that fluid down and it drains out, but in space, it floats up and presses against the optic nerve and retina.”
It’s a zero G problem. Solution is spin gravity. Zero G is harmless for hours to a few days.

Slater and Gordon launch class action lawsuit against WA over housing conditionsDuncan EvansNewsWire
Fri, 23 August 2024 5:38AM
Comments
Indigenous Australians living in remote Western Australia have launched a massive new class action lawsuit against the WA state government, alleging they have been subjected to substandard housing conditions.
Shocking photos attached to the lawsuit show rundown houses with mould and cracks on the walls.
Law firm Slater and Gordon, representing thousands of Indigenous tenants living in public housing across remote WA, has filed the action in the Federal Court, accusing the Housing Authority and the state, as lessors of public housing in remote Aboriginal communities, of breaching multiple residential tenancy, contract and consumer protection laws.
“Every person, regardless of where they live, deserves safe and reasonable housing,” Slater and Gordon class actions principal lawyer Gemma Leigh-Dodds said.
“For too long Aboriginal people living in remote communities have been expected to ‘put up and shut up’ in relation to their housing rights.
Vivienne Gordon, who lives in the small town of Bayulu, is part of the class action. 9News Credit: Channel 9
“By filing this class action on their behalf, we are demanding better housing justice for Aboriginal Western Australians.”
The suit alleged the WA authorities failed to adequately maintain, repair and carry out structural and other improvements to public housing rental properties and to do so within a reasonable time, provide public housing that was reasonably secure, provide public housing that was reasonably comfortable and to ensure that public housing rental properties complied with basic health and safety laws.
The firm’s statement of claim suggests there are thousands of public housing premises leased by Aboriginal tenants across remote communities in the East Kimberley, West Kimberley, Pilbara, Wheatbelt, Mid West, Gascoyne and Goldfields-Esperance regions of WA.
The alleged failures occurred between July 1, 2010 and August 19, 2024.
The law firm alleges tenants were forced to install their own air conditioners.
“Those who leased the properties between the relevant 14-year time frame are automatically included in the class,” the firm states.
The lead applicant and group members are seeking financial compensation for the losses and damages they have suffered and repayment of expenses they have incurred to rectify housing defects and issues, such as buying and installing air conditioners and door locks.
Ms Leigh-Dodds said almost 200 public housing properties in several remote communities were surveyed earlier this year as part of the firm’s investigation into the case.
The firm says many houses had been without working toilets, showers, cooking facilities, lights, safe drinking water, doors, functioning locks and reliable electricity.

Odd really, I thought they were coming here legally by the thousand anyway:
A trio of accused people smugglers who allegedly planned to pick up asylum seekers from a remote airbase in the Kimberley and drive them to Sydney have been arrested.
Zhongfang Zhang, 26, Shuyan Hong, 54, and Shuai Sun, 32, were due to face court in Sydney on Friday each charged with one count of conspiracy to conceal non-citizens.
They face up to 10 years’ in jail if convicted but it was expected they would apply for bail.
The trio were arrested in Sydney on Thursday and had been living in New South Wales.
They were accused of being the transport and logistics crew for an unlawful boat arrival in the Kimberley region in far north Western Australia on April 5.
A boatload of 15 Chinese nationals was found near the Mungalalu Truscott Airbase, about 20 hours drive from Darwin along outback roads.

Not so open minded when their premises are challenged.
The left always, ALWAYS seek to control the very field upon which the argument is had.
They seek to define words in advance to suit their tactics, they try to put in place rules of what is or isn’t a suitable point to include and finally they exclude those they know might be able to muster arguments that put theirs in a bad light.

And the proposed nuclear plant at Mt. Piper Is NOWHERE near this earthquake. Piper is near the towns of Portland and Wallererang, on the NSW Central Tablelands – whereas Denman is in the Upper Hunter Valley. Our farm is is also in the NSW Central Tablelands & we pass by Piper regularly.

Re the farmer’s protest rally in Bendigo.
Today my wife and I stood among hundreds of other men, women, boys and girls from all corners of that benighted state, 99% of whom, you could tell, literally had the dirt from the land they love under their fingernails and still on their boots.
Many excellent speakers of all ages and a bit of “curry” for comrade Jacinta at the end. (No projectiles) In fact there was a call for a chant to “summon Jacinta” from the building she was in and owing to the general politeness of the gathering there was nothing immediately forthcoming! Although I’d say everyone had a few suggestions.
Hard to put a finger on the mood of the people we spoke to, grim determination mixed with a certain amount of shock as to the scale of what is happening. Make no mistake, these people and their communities are being divided and railroaded especially wrt “renewable” projects.
We had the pleasure of meeting Farmer Gez who is doing sterling work in fighting this crap. I’ve no doubt he will add more when he can.
On a sobering note we spoke for a good while with a lovely older gentleman from Banyena who it turns out had taken a road trip up through our neck of the woods a couple of weeks previously. He made particular note of how everything seemed different as soon as they crossed into NSW, “everything seemed better”.
He was also afraid someone is going to get hurt by the time it’s all over.
Victoria has had the $hit kicked out of it but at least some are still fighting.
