It’s time to take back our country. “If you want a vision of the future,” wrote Orwell, “imagine a boot stamping on a human face – forever.” Let us hope that any vision of 21st century Australia is not one of the masked DANSTAPO storming the home of that terrified, young pregnant mother, Zoe Buhler. Pinning her arms back and handcuffing her, they took her away. Her crime? Daring to propose a Freedom Day for Ballarat.
CORONAVIRUS fatalities are in-line with annual flu deaths with continued claims of a pandemic being wildly exaggerated according to newly released research. In a study presented by European clinical director Dr Martin Feeley and biochemical research engineer Ivor Cummins they demonstrate that excess mortality from COVID-19 is “not very much greater” than the excess mortality observed during the 2018 flu season.
VICTORIA Premier Dan has built the foundations for dictatorship and destroyed the economy in one fell swoop. As Victoria accounts for 20 per cent of our economy, the negative repercussions of this continued shut down will reverberate across the whole of Australia, not only Victoria.
VICTORIA Labor Premier Daniel Andrews has been hammered in a new opinion poll with his handling of COVID-19 being judged the worst in the nation – by far. Of five mainland States, Victoria’s response to the Wuhan pandemic has been rated the worst with daylight to spare.
THE politicians are ruining Australia far sooner than anyone ever expected.It was always self-evident that a lockdown of the productive sector must be a last resort. The first was completely unjustified. It has, without explanation, morphed from “flattening the curve” to preventing hospital crowding to eradication, which is impossible.
AUSTRALIANS are twice as concerned about the health of the nation’s economy as they are for their own well-being as the Coronavirus pandemic picks up a new head of steam.
With an uncontrolled second wave in Victoria and isolated outbreaks in NSW and Queensland, all Australians whether male or female, young or old have ranked the economic impact as their primary concern, by far.
THE National Cabinet is a dismal failure. Never before has Australia, even in wartime, been governed by a grand coalition of Parties and governments, underwritten by big business and with the mainstream media tranquilised.
Unlike the ancient Roman republic, this is not a dictatorship constitutionally empowered to confront an emergency. It is a coup.
WHEN new wallpaper first goes up it makes an impression. You look at it, study the patterns and colour, have an opinion about it. It’s new, exciting and brings something else into your life. But once it has been up for some months, unchanged, its attractiveness fades, you gradually become bored, you don’t even notice it … and eventually you change it for something new.
IT’S time to listen to blind Freddie. When COVID first struck it was both common sense and politically astute for governments to design the communication response on the advice of the best medical minds in the country.
Now as the second wave rolls up the beach it is neither common sense nor politically astute to use doctors as a handy excuse for clumsy messaging. The COVID-19 communications now need to be sophisticated, well-rounded and comprehensive.
FORMER Prime Minister Tony Abbott has revealed his frustration at the mindless suggestion that Australians were sharing the pain of the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic.
In a wide ranging interview with the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) published last Wednesday, Mr Abbott made it clear that the “doing class” – and not the “talking class” – had worn the brunt of the crisis.
