The PUSH is on you, the citizen, to take these experimental drugs that do not have 100% effectiveness! In fact there are a lot of medical reasons not to take them! What government would push such procedures on its citizens?
Our politicians should be taken to court for pushing vaccines on their citizens that are not working! The following are statistics from 8 February, 2022. ‘Sadly, NSW Health is today reporting the deaths of 18 people with COVID-19; 12 men and six women.
Two people were in their 60s, five people were in their 70s, six people were in their 80s, and five people were in their 90s. Older age is a significant risk factor for serious illness and death for COVID-19, particularly when combined with significant underlying health conditions.
Three people had received three doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, 10 people had received two doses, and five people were not vaccinated.’https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages/20220208_00.aspx
- The Prime Minister, in Parliament, apologised personally to Brittany Higgins for the culture that contributed to what allegedly happened to her, and announced his government’s general acceptance of the Jenkins Report’s recommendations to reform toxic aspects of parliamentary culture. Grace Tame, meanwhile, again highlighted her true personal and blatantly partisan enmity by labelling Morrison’s statement a ‘stunt’. She and Higgins today will address the National Press Club, an address scheduled by the NPC (president, Laura Tingle) to do maximum political damage to Morrison, just as last week’s lynch mob did likewise.
- ABC types are gloating at Morrison’s new funding plan for the ABC and SBS giving them substantial additional funding, and ending a four-year funding freeze. ABC chairman Ita Buttrose purred. The likes of Media Watch’s Paul Barry ungratefully say it’s a political fix that won’t shut them up – it is, and it won’t. But would you appease a perennially-misbehaving toddler by giving him an ice-cream as a reward for his selfish tantrums? That’s the principle being applied to the rent-seeking ABC management by the Morrison government, in a vain attempt to mollify its enemies who talk to its friends.
- Perhaps even to his own surprise, Scott Morrison yesterday got his modified religious freedom legislation package through the Coalition party room, with embattled MPs maybe realising it’s better to hang together than hang separately. One Liberal MP, Tasmanian Bridget Archer, has signalled she’ll likely vote against it because it doesn’t have sufficient protections for her liking, but otherwise the bills’ fate is to be decided by the so-called ‘progressives’ in the Senate, rather than rebellious government MPs and senators
- The late Christian Kerr put greater store on the Left-biased Essential poll in the Grauniad than Newspoll in the Australian. So take note, all those on the Left and Right who fervently wish the Morrison government gone: the Essential poll released yesterday shows Labor and the Coalition neck-and-neck on both primary and two-party preferred votes, with 8 per cent undecided. It also indicates summer’s voter anger with Morrison is cooling, with his satisfaction rating recovering from a recent low. For all Morrison and the government’s faults, is the game still afoot?’ This is from an Email from The Spectator Australia https://spectator.com.au/
There MUST be a change in government this May and that does not include the LNP, ALP, Greens or those Leftist Independents but it does mean parties such as the UAP, One Nation and Liberal Democrats!
There is only some FREEDOM if one follows the Marxist rules of the Western Australian government. Now ‘A mother and daughter were dragged out of their own restaurant in handcuffs, and in front of customers, for allegedly failing to comply with Western Australia’s Covid vaccination rules.
Topolinis Caffe co-owner Jodie Jardine, 51 and her daughter, 22, were taken away on Monday night after their family-run Italian restaurant in Perth’s north was approached by roughly a dozen police officers.
They were charged under the Emergency Management Act for allegedly working despite not being vaccinated.
Under WA’s mandatory jab requirements introduced on January 31, all hospitality workers in the state must be double dosed or face harsh fines and even jail time. About 93 per cent of people aged 12 and over are fully-vaccinated in the state.
Ms Jardine claimed that by not being vaccinated while on the job, she’s “standing up for the future of our children”.
The arrest came after a tense stand-off between police and staff on Monday night.
Eventually, the un-jabbed duo were arrested and led outside away by officers into awaiting cars.
Footage from independent media shows that, later in that night, the mother and daughter were dropped at the restaurant to the applause of an awaiting crowd.
“It’s a mother and daughter and we were in the cell,” Ms Jardine said.
“We’re going to have to tell my grandchild … we were arrested for her or him because we’re standing up for our children and my grandchildren, that’s what I am doing. I am standing up for the future of our children and if we don’t, we’re not going to have a future.’https://www.news.com.au/world/coronavirus/australia/cafe-owner-and-daughter-marched-out-of-restaurant-by-cops-in-perth-for-working-while-unvaccinated-and-serving-nonjabbed-customers/news-story/3e2a44db6bfe2ff768f037be7cd42983
What was a peaceful camp for freedom quickly turned violent when police came to issue infringement tickets for “illegally parked” vehicles.
Tension escalated when police entered the camp to record car registration details.
Officers had largely remained cooperative with the growing gathering of protesters, and with too many people to arrest and too many cars to tow away the police presence focused their attention on the “illegally parked cars” being the issue and informed campers that they would be recording the details of all vehicles on the grounds under the direction of the National Capital Authority (NCA).
Protesters were concerned and suspicious of police intentions after earlier cooperation with the police led to officers blocking cars from re-entering the grounds.
Police mentioned that they may in coming days issue a move-on notice to the protesters, however, numbers continue to grow at the site with waves of the convoy still rolling into Canberra from across the nation.
When I talked to the Police media unit, I was informed that the camp was in fact illegal as NCA permits had not been issued for them to be there.
The police on the ground on patrol said that about a dozen officers would walk through the camp every hour for their safety.
Campers were concerned that the active police presence may escalate the situation and when police started blocking entry to the area, they were fearful that police would evict them from the area entirely.
“They’re saying it’s not the police that’s removing us, it’s the National Capital Authority … We have been trying to meet with them in person, the office is just across the road here, we went there, there’s no one there,” one camper said.
“They won’t return calls, and we’ve asked them to sit in a roundtable conversation with the traditional owner, myself, and the federal police, if we can sit down and talk about even getting a permit just for the time until the end of next week.”
Scenes turned violent when a scuffle broke out after a 65yo woman was tackled and arrested by police.
Police pepper-sprayed the crowd as the crowd sprang to her defence.
“There are women and children here,” said one witness on the scene.
“I saw an old lady getting dragged away, fellas getting stomped on the ground.“
“We were all prepared to take the infringement notices, without a problem, and we’ve been prepping everyone here to be really calm,” said another.
“It’s going to look really bad for you guys because what happened there was unacceptable“.
A man in his 80s identified as a war veteran was injured in the incident.
As he was carried away many from the camp embraced him for standing up to the police.
“Never ever quit, even though I’ve got a crook leg, I’m still walking and I’m still fighting and I’m never quitting. Never live by fear … Hold the line!,” he said.’https://www.rebelnews.com/full_video_police_storm_freedom_camp_in_canberra?utm_campaign=ay_campchaos_030222&utm_medium=email&utm_source=therebel
The Australian Prime Minister claims to be a Christian and does attend a Pentecostal church but he is very hesitant to back any Christian or Christian organization (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/feb/03/christian-lobby-groups-attack-morrison-for-vowing-students-wont-be-expelled-due-to-their-sexuality-or-gender) when that person or organization comes head to head with WOKE society. NOTE, whenever, a “Christian” organization accepts Government funds they have signed away their Christian beliefs. Therefore, the following is not a surprise to me.
‘A Brisbane Christian school says it will withdraw its demand that families sign anti-gay and anti-trans enrolment contracts prior to the new school year.
The decision comes before a meeting with the Queensland schools accreditation board.
While Citipointe Christian College says it “deeply regrets” that the contracts made students feel discriminated against, the principal says the school has the right to maintain its ethos and the “freedom to continue to provide an education based on our shared beliefs”.
Those beliefs – and the statement parents were asked to sign – are taken from the school’s governing body, the International Network of Churches, and its formal “statement of faith”. It includes statements that homosexual acts were “immoral” and “offensive to God” and that transgender people would not be recognised.
The withdrawal of the contract comes after the prime minister, Scott Morrison, said he “did not agree with” the school’s use of the document.
Teachers have told Guardian Australia that the school principal, Brian Mulheran, this week had repeatedly doubled down on his decision to implement the contract. He released a video statement to parents on Tuesday defending the contracts and then gave families a two-week extension to sign.
The decision was made before a scheduled meeting of the state government’s statutory accreditation board, which assesses eligibility for government funding and monitors compliance with the Education Act.
The board has received a discrimination complaint about the contract.
It is also understood that dozens of students and families had already chosen to withdraw and have enrolled at the local state school.
Lawyers and others had said the contract was a clear breach of the Queensland anti-discrimination act. The state human rights commissioner, Scott McDougall, said organisations could not “contract out” their responsibilities under the act.
In a letter to families Mulheran said the school would work with the community to update the enrolment contract, but that no families would now be asked to sign the existing one.
A statement posted on the college website said the school would “continue to ensure that families are provided with information that is necessary to make informed choices about … our approach to teaching”.
“We deeply regret that some students feel that they would be discriminated against because of their sexuality or gender identity, and I apologise to them and their families on behalf of the college,” Mulheran said.
“As stated previously, the college does not and will not discriminate against any student because of their sexuality or gender identity. It is central to our faith that being gay or transgender in no way diminishes a person’s humanity or dignity in God’s eyes.
“It is also deeply distressing that some of our students have been vilified in the community simply for their religious beliefs or because they attend the college.”
Mulheran said society “gives freedom to people to be a part of groups with shared beliefs”.
“Citipointe has the freedom to maintain its Christian ethos and this is an essential part of Christian education and choice for parents. As a college established for religious purposes, we will continue to provide an education based on our shared beliefs.”
The Queensland education minister, Grace Grace, said she welcomed the decision and had called for it on a number of occasions.
“In the interests of the mental health of students, staff, carers and parents I hope they abandon it completely and nothing like it ever surfaces again,” Grace said.’https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/feb/03/brisbanes-citipointe-christian-college-withdraws-anti-gay-contract-but-defends-statement-of-faith
