We were supposed to learn from history, not repeat it.

The excessive relinquishing of our freedoms and civil liberties has led us down a dark path, one which will only lead to chaos and despair. From the moment COVID19 became a major issue, the political manipulation of fear for the purpose of gaining increased powers was bound to occur. When it comes to power, politicians simply cannot help themselves. So, it was only a matter of time before governments thought “Hey, this would be a great opportunity to give myself some more overbearing powers. It is, after all, for the good of the people.” And so ensued a democratic disaster.

Now I have spoken previously to power-seeking, self-serving politicians. And I have discussed how important human rights are. But this time, well, this time I write an article with deep concern for the future of Victorians, and the future of democracy in this nation. Australia has, for so long, been a great nation. Democracy has allowed us to thrive, giving the people freedom, and keeping politicians in check. But now, one single Bill threatens to tear it all down, and disgrace this great nation on the world stage. One single Bill threatens to shred the very fabric of democracy itself. And where else would that Bill be than in the Socialist Republic of Victoria?

I speak, of course, of the dread-inducing Omnibus Bill. Its full name is the “COVID-19 Omnibus (Emergency Measures) and Other Acts Amendment Bill 2020”. But for the sake of keeping things concise, I will just refer to it as the Omnibus Bill. While this Bill covers several areas (hence, “Omni”), there is one part in particular that should concern every single person in this country, especially Victorians. For your benefit, I took the time to read it myself, and yes, it is cause for concern.

The Part of the Bill that is most alarming is Part 13, which pertains to “COVID-19 Temporary Measures”. As we all know by now, these so-called “temporary” measures are likely to continue for far longer than we would be led to believe. Division 2 of this Part of the Bill, entitled “Emergency powers measures”, contains several sections numbers 250-253. Now don’t worry if you do not understand exactly what these terms mean, they are simply terms used in political documents. These sections of the Bill detail powers that should never be installed in a democratic nation. First, section 250 allows the Secretary responsible to appoint any person that they consider to be appropriate based on their “skills, attributes, experience or otherwise” to be an authorized officer for the purposes of the Act. To put this in simple terms, that means practically any public servant, even if they are not Police or from the Department of Health, could be appointed as an “authorized officer”. That means the government could appoint building inspectors or the like to carry out this Act. And when combined with this next part, it is quite chilling.

Section 252 brings in further emergency powers, and reads as follows:

A designated authorised officer may detain a person under section 200(1)(a) if -(a) a direction has been given in the exercise of an emergency power under section 200(1)(a), (b), (c) or (d); and (b) the designated authorised officer reasonably believes that a person who is required to comply with the direction— (i) is a high risk person within the meaning of subsection (2); and (ii) is likely to refuse or fail to comply with the direction.

(2) A person is a high risk person if— (a) the person has been notified that the person has been diagnosed with COVID-19 and has not been given clearance from self-isolation in accordance with the applicable requirements; or (b) the person has been notified in accordance with the applicable requirements that the person is a close contact of a person who has been diagnosed with COVID-19, and has not been given clearance from self-quarantine in accordance with the applicable requirements.

(3) For the purposes of detaining a person under section 200(1)(a) in accordance with this section— (a) the reference in section 200(1)(a) to the period reasonably necessary to eliminate a serious risk to public health is taken to be a reference to the period throughout which a designated authorised officer reasonably believes that the person— (i) is a high risk person; and (ii) is likely to refuse or fail to comply with the direction; and (b) the reference in section 200(6) to whether the continued detention of the person is reasonably necessary to eliminate a serious risk to public health is taken to be a reference to whether the continued detention of the person is reasonably necessary because a designated authorised officer reasonably believes that the person— (i) is a high risk person; and 30 (ii) is likely to refuse or fail to comply with the direction.

In this section ‘applicable requirements mean those specified in a direction given under section 200 in respect of that matter’ and ‘designated authorized officer means an authorized officer who may exercise any of the public health risk powers and emergency powers’.

Ok, so that is the Part as quoted from the Bill. Now here is the explainer.

Essentially, an authorized officer, that is, someone who has been authorized by the relevant Government Secretary to carry out this Act, could be anyone that the Government deems fit. That individual will then have powers bestowed upon them that would allow them to detain anyone they “reasonably believe” is likely to run a risk of breaking the rules. That means that anyone the authorized officer can essentially arrest anyone they THINK will break the restrictions. In other words, that means that anyone can be detained even if they have NOT committed a crime.

To make matters worse, as per the Bill, there is no limit on how long these people can be detained. It is all about “reasonable necessity”. There is also no avenue for appeal. These authorized officers can detain “conspiracy theorists” and anti-lockdown protestors. But who defines what a “conspiracy theorist” is? Well, probably the Government. You see where this is going? It is a slippery slope.

There is something truly ominous about this Omnibus Bill. Because the Government and their authorized officers get to deem who is a risk and who isn’t, it could all go downhill very quickly. This will basically give the Victorian Government censorship powers. It can easily be manipulated and allow the Government to detain anyone who so much as criticizes or disagrees with them. There would be more people like Zoe Buhler who have the police show up at their house, no warrant needed, to arrest them for posting something on social media that goes against the Government and the information they are providing. It only ends in complete tyranny.

Here is a hypothetical that could soon be very real in Victoria: You are in your home. The previous day, you posted something on Facebook that disputed the Government’s points or was critical of what they have said. You may have encouraged people to fight for their freedoms. Then you hear a knock on the door. Outside are four, maybe five police officers. You open the door and ask them what they are doing at your home. They tell you they have reasonable belief that you are a risk to the people of Victoria, and that you will be detained. When you inquire as to why, they tell you it has something to do with a post you published on Facebook the day before. Then they take you away, and detail you for however long they believe is necessary. You cannot fight it, you cannot appeal. All you can do is comply and wait. Is this really the kind of society you want to live in? One where the government essentially has complete control over the people? If it is, you should be questioning your views.

This is what Victoria could soon look like. A State where freedom is lost. A State where democracy is but a shred of history. The Omnibus Bill is an ominous one. It has no place in a democratic nation. It is something that would be expected of a Communist Government. If that is the way the Victorian Government is headed, then the Governor, Linda Dessau, must step in and take action right now. Indeed, her one job is to protect the Constitution and by extension democracy itself. Currently, the Bill has been passed by the Lower House in the Victorian Parliament. If it is passed by the Upper House, it becomes law, and remains in effect until at least April 26, 2021.

If the Omnibus Bill becomes law, democracy dies in Victoria and tyranny prevails. Similar circumstances have occurred before. They only lead to misery, despair and, tragically, death. We should all agree that this cannot be allowed to happen in Australia.

We are supposed to learn from history, not repeat it.

Human rights are a necessary part of life, if you want a good one that is. Without them, we can easily fall victim to tyrannical governments and leaders, who value power over the people. Human rights are what separate us from constant misery, what protects us from the harshest treatment. If there is anything that must be protected, it is them. Now more than ever, with COVID-19 giving governments the excuse to take away the rights of the people for the sake of “keeping people safe”, we face the very real prospect that we may never see our rights again.

See, governments are very quick to take our rights away, but are extremely slow to give them back, if at all. There is indeed a very simple reason behind this: the less rights we have, the more power they gain. With more power comes more control, and soon we find ourselves very restricted in what we can do. Sound familiar? It should, because that is exactly what has been happening and what will continue to perpetuate as long as COVID-19 is around without a viable vaccine. And with issues occurring with the highly talked-up AstraZeneca vaccine, it is likely to be a long time yet until we have a safe, viable vaccine that people will not be opposed to taking. That means our lives will continue to be restricted for potentially years to come. That is, unless we do something about it.

As previously mentioned, governments are very reluctant to return your rights after they have taken them away. See, these people get a taste for the power it gives them. It is like a drug. They become addicted to it, so much so that they just want more. As the saying goes, “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” When politicians get drunk on power, it corrupts them, it makes them do things that are cruel and inhumane. There is only one way to get your rights back from a government; you must take them back.

This is where protest comes in. Protest is essential to getting your rights back from a power-tripping government. Protest is, quintessentially, a right in itself, and a very important one at that. Protest is what I like to term “people power”. I call it this because it is what empowers people by allowing them to make their voices heard. People power can be quite something. It can bring about change of great proportions. It can, quite literally, be the last line of defense between a government hungry for more control, and the rights of the people. That is why, when governments attempt to outlaw protest, you know you’re in trouble. Protest is a fundamental tenant of democracy. Governments criminalize protests when they want to continue their reign unchecked. It is tyranny, plain and simple.

Never in my life did I think I would see this kind of tyrannical rule in the democratic nation that is Australia. Yet, to the horror of many, including myself, this is exactly what is occurring in Victoria. We are bearing witness to a violation of human rights in a nation that it never should have occurred in. When we elect governments democratically, we give politicians the privilege of power. That power is given, it is not taken. It never should be taken, and it should never be abused. However, to the detriment of the Australian democracy, that is what continues to happen in this country.

Right now, Scott Morrison is a Prime Minister without power. The reason behind this is simple: The Prime Minister though a National Cabinet would be a good idea. It was indeed his worst mistake. Through the National Cabinet, Scott Morrison offloaded power to the Premiers. This was always bound to go wrong, and now we are seeing the fruits, or, rather, the poisoned fruits, of one of the worst government bodies in Australian history. If the Prime Minister had made this a temporary arrangement, it may have worked out. But he installed it permanently, and now it has wreaked havoc on this nation. Premiers have gone rogue, developed god complexes, abused their power, and violated human rights. If Morrison had himself declared a State of Emergency and taken full control of the response from the start, the mess that was created by giving more power to the Premiers could have easily been avoided. But here we are, human rights in the balance, all because Morrison could not step up and take some leadership when it was needed most.

Victoria have the harshest lockdowns in the Western world. An unlawful curfew has been imposed upon the people of Melbourne. Freedom of movement has been heavily restricted. Protest, no matter how peaceful, is “unlawful”. People are being arrested for posting on social media, even for having the nerve to go for a walk. Surveillance units (hidden surveillance cameras) have been deployed, breaching the right to privacy that each private citizen in this country has. It is the most absurd and egregious abuse of power in the West. The sheer fact that protest has been outlawed by a Premier who is behaving like a dictator should cause great concern. It is the tactic of a tyrant. But what should really scare people are the comments that have been made by the Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews in relation to human rights. When asked about violating people’s rights, the Premier responded by saying “This isn’t about human rights. It’s about human life.” When a Premier, or any leader for that matter, becomes so dismissive of human rights, you know you’re in deep trouble. And no, I am not being dismissive of human life here at all. In fact, I would argue that I am taking it into consideration more than the Premier is. Because what kind of life is one with rights and freedom?

And then there’s Queensland. The problem with this State is not lockdowns, it is the cruelty and heartlessness of a self-obsessed Premier who is quite literally playing politics with people’s lives. Annastacia Palaszczuk closed the border to New South Wales for one reason and one reason only: an election. The Premier is so obsessed with this election and keeping herself in power, she has herself started abusing her power, violating the rights of the people in the process. Only this week, she denied a young woman named Sarah from Canberra the opportunity to attend her father’s funeral, having delayed her from entering Queensland to see him before he passed away. When the Prime Minister pleaded with her over the phone to allow Sarah to attend the funeral to be with her mother and younger sister on compassionate grounds, Palaszczuk refused, and then had the nerve to play the victim, telling the State Parliament that the Prime Minister was trying to bully her, and deferring responsibility to Chief Health Officer Dr Jeanette Young. Dr Young’s explanation for denying Sarah access to the funeral but allowing Tom Hanks into Queensland without going through hotel quarantine? In short, money. These people are putting money above the lives and rights of the people of Australia. It has been happening in hospitals and aged care facilities, where anyone who tests positive for COVID19 and passes away, even if they pass away from any other condition, is recorded as a COVID19 death for financial gain. It is sick, twisted, and a blatant demonstration of corruption.

In addition to refusing to allow Sarah to attend her father’s funeral, despite Canberra having had no cases for over sixty-five days, Palaszczuk has refused many other requests to come across the border from NSW which should be permitted based on compassionate grounds. Indeed, all of these cases would be the very definition of compassionate. A father who wants to see his four-year-old daughter who is currently undergoing chemotherapy and is in intensive care. A father In Queensland dying of cancer, who just wants to see his four kids before he passes away (the kids are now being permitted entry providing they front up $16,000 for quarantine fees, which just goes to show this is definitely about money). A pregnant mother who needed emergency surgery to save one of her twins, who was denied entry and tragically lost the baby. A mother and father who were denied entry to be by their dying son’s bedside as his life support was turned off. A grandmother who was denied entry to attend the funeral of her grandson who had tragically passed away. These are just a few of the stories out there. There are so many more, and for Annastacia Palaszczuk to play the victim when she is the one bullying these families and causing them even more heartache is cold, cruel, and heartless. It is borderline sociopathic. The border should not even be closed in the first place. But Palaszczuk is more concerned about winning the October 31^st election than the people who are suffering as a result of her personal ambition. However, what she fails to realise is that her inhumane actions are costing her votes, even votes of Labor supporters, and will likely cost her the election. The Queensland State election is on Halloween, and I am sure it will be a terrifying night for the Premier.

I am genuinely concerned about the way Australia is going. What has always been a great, democratic nation, is turning in to a human rights disaster. Yet people act like sheep, giving up their human rights for some temporary safety. I have quoted Ben Franklin before, but I will do it again to reiterate: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” If you are willing to give up your rights for the sake of “keeping people safe”, then you really do not deserve those rights.

What this country needs is solid legislated protection for human rights. We need something along the lines of a Bill of Rights, but it needs to be put to the people, not the politicians. Politicians nowadays, bar a few good ones who actually care about the people, tend to corrupt easily, and will take advantage of anything, including a potential Bill of Rights, to ensure they can gain as much power as possible. All you need do is look at Victoria, the only State with a Charter of Human Rights, whose Government has blatantly ignored this Charter for the sake of accruing power (it would be interesting to see if they could be taken to the Australian Human Rights Commission for that). We need to construct something that will protect us from anything like the disgraces occurring in Victoria and Queensland, and the country in general, from ever happening again. Our rights must be protected from power-hungry politicians.

Scott Morrison, this part is for you: Step up. Show some leadership. Abolish the National Cabinet. Take back power from the Premiers. An intervention is necessary, particularly in Victoria. Withdraw the Australian Defense Force from the State. Tell Daniel Andrews that if he wants to perpetuate with harsh lockdowns that it is on him to pay for it, not the Federal Government. Stop relying on Big Public Health Bureaucrats who are only in it for themselves and the money. They cannot be trusted. They are unelected and should not be running this country. Our elected leaders should be running the country. Show people that they made the right choice electing you to power. Use the Australian Constitution to your advantage. It seems like you have forgotten it. Take Bronwyn Bishop’s advice and have a look at Section 51. Use it. Get our rights back for us Prime Minister. And then do the right thing and help us to protect them from any further abuses of power.

Our human rights matter. They are what provide us with a good life, a life of freedom. Freedom of speech, freedom of movement, freedom of choice. We should not have unruly arbitrary restrictions imposed upon us. Where there are not human rights, there cannot possible be peace. As the Dalai Lama said, “Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free.”

We must defend our human rights, for they are keep us from a life of misery, a life of oppression by governments, a life of despair. Nelson Mandela, who was himself a civil rights activist before he was imprisoned and later released and elected President, said that “To deny people their human rights is to challenge their very humanity.” Human rights could be viewed as the foundation of humanity itself. And like a building goes down when its foundations collapse, when human rights collapse, humanity falls apart.

Daniel Andrews is by far the worst Premier Australia has ever seen. This is coming from someone who saw the disaster that Kristina Keneally was in office in NSW. But as terrible as she was, Daniel Andrews has truly gone above and beyond in the realm of bad leadership. The man has, through a quest for power, annihilated the State of Victoria. Melbourne, once the most livable city in the world, is now but a shadow of its former self. Businesses closed permanently, the streets bare, citizens imprisoned in their homes, a tyrannical leader imposing more restrictions; it is almost like 1984 come to life. Thankfully, I do not reside in Danistan, so the police will not come knocking at my door to intimidate me for criticizing their Dear Leader.

Daniel Andrews has consistently said throughout his daily press conferences that this is not about politics, rather, it is about health. He has maintained that all the decisions he has made and continues to make, and all the restrictions put in place, are at the advice of the Chief Health Officer (CHO) Brett Sutton. Essentially, he claims he has based everything on the “health advice”. Yet neither of these things are completely true.

First, the health advice has not played a part in all decisions made and restrictions imposed. That became evident when yesterday, on Neil Mitchell’s radio show on 3AW, Brett Sutton admitted that he had not advised the Premier to impose a curfew. This was a bombshell revelation. Why? Because since implementing the curfew on Melbourne, Daniel Andrews has always said that this decision was based on the health advice of the Chief Health Officer. Yet Sutton’s revelation had just proven that claim to be false. If this were true, it would essentially mean that Daniel Andrews had been lying to everyone the whole time, and that the curfew was nothing more than a tyrannical power grab.

It was only natural that this would be followed up by the media at the next press conference. When journalists began asking their questions, it was only a matter of time before an admission was made in one form or another. Daniel Andrews was asked if Brett Sutton (who, conveniently, happened to be absent from the presser) had advised him to impose the curfew. The Premier responded that “it wasn’t a matter for Brett Sutton”. He told the press it was his decision. This confirmed what Sutton had said to be true. Andrews had all but admitted the curfews were not based on health advice. But the big bombshell came with the first question asked on this matter. The Premier was asked if he was able to confirm if it was in fact the Victorian Police who had asked him to impose the curfew. While he initially claimed he was unable to pinpoint who it was, it wasn’t long before he said that the curfew being in place makes it “much easier for police”, and in a follow up question, again said the curfew was put in place to “make the jobs of Police easier.” With these comments, the Premier all but confirmed the curfew was only imposed to make life easier for a lazy police force, and essentially impose a Police State upon Victoria.

This admission that the curfew was done for the sake of the Police also confirmed something many knew all along: this was a power grab for the Premier. But the revelations were far from over. Only this morning, Victoria’s Police Chief Commissioner Shane Patton told Neil Mitchell Victoria Police were not consulted on the matter of the curfew, and that he only found out about it just hours before it was to be enforced. This raised the question: if the Chief Health Officer did not request the curfew, and the Victorian Police did not request it, then who did? When this question was posed to the Premier in his daily press conference today, his response was predictable: “I can’t pinpoint the exact individual or the exact moment that a decision was made to impose a curfew.” However, from the information obtained by Neil Mitchell, and Andrews’ own admissions, we can safely assume that this was, as one journalist put it, a Captain’s Call.

The curfew never should have been imposed. After the revelations from the last few days, it is safe to say it is far from appropriate. A curfew being imposed in peacetime is absurd in itself. But to do so with no request from relevant authorities is extreme. It is nothing more than a selfish act of accumulating power; something a dictator would do. Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt has now called for the curfew to be lifted immediately, considering it was not implemented based on health advice. Any reasonable person would agree. It does not matter in the slightest if, as Daniel Andrews claimed this morning, it will “make the Police’s job harder.” The Police should know how to do their job, and they should be able to do so without such arbitrary measures. The Premier thinks that this curfew is only impactful upon those who would seek to otherwise break the rules. It impacts everyone living in Melbourne, and it will continue to do so until it is lifted.

When Daniel Andrews says this is not about politics, he is lying to you. This has only ever been about politics for him. One could say the roadmap to nowhere has been imposed in revenge for China’s Belt and Road Initiative that he signed onto being ripped up by the Prime Minister. It could also be construed that the restrictions put in place, which have created a Police State, were implicated so that the Premier could gain more power, and ensure the people obeyed. But don’t take it from me, take it from Daniel Andrews himself. The man who, since the inception of many of these restrictions, has claimed consistently that they were imposed upon the advice of the CHO, today told the press “I think it’s dangerous to fall into this trap that the only decisions that the Government can make are the ones advised by the Chief Health Officer”, and claimed the advice isn’t necessarily what makes the rules. In saying these things, he has contradicted what he has been saying for months, implying many of these decisions could easily have been Captain’s Calls, essentially making them political. And when you lie to the people again and again, you lose their trust.

In addition, the Police State imposed upon the people of Victoria has created an air of anger and fear. Victoria Police are now turning up to people’s homes in what are clearly intimidation tactics, for criticizing the Premier on social media, serving them with warnings about attending protests that they were not even planning to attend. They have arrested two individuals in their homes, pregnant mother Zoe Buhler, and ex-soldier James Bartolo, for posting about the protests on Facebook. When Police start arresting people for Facebook posts, it begs the question: why are they trawling through social media looking for people to arrest? It is unwarranted surveillance. Victoria appears to have its own Stasi. But it does not stop there. Six police officers surrounded two elderly women, one of them snatching one of the women’s phones. It’s disgusting behaviour, but when Andrews is asked about it, he refuses to comment. When the people fired up last weekend, taking to the streets to protest against this tyrannical government, the Police began violently arresting people. Did they do the same to Black Lives Matter protestors weeks before the second wave began? No. The double standards of the Andrews Government and the Victorian Police are on full display. It appears that only government sanctioned protest is allowed in the Socialist Republic of Victoria. And apparently protesting for freedom does not qualify.

Now naturally, the media were present at these protests to cover them. They do this out of their duty to the public to report on matters of public interest. The Freedom Day protests were of great public interest. Among the journalists present was Rebel News reporter Avi Yemini. After passing through the roadblocks having had his permit checked, and a couple of hours covering the protests, permit in pocket, Avi was arrested without warning by Victoria Police. While other journalists from the Mainstream Media were asked to move on, Avi was given no such courtesy. He was pinned to the ground like some sort of dangerous criminal and handcuffed, despite telling the Police multiple times that he had his permit in his pocket. When he inquired as to what was being arrested for, the arresting Officer told him “Hinder”. This was despite the fact that Avi had not hindered Police at all. He had been standing in a space with no one near him and had not been asked even once by Police to move on. But any logical person would know that Avi was not arrested for doing anything wrong at all. No, this was purely a tactic by Victoria Police to get rid of journalists who were not subservient to Daniel Andrews and his Government. Avi’s real crime? Journalism. And when a State, even a country, reaches a point where journalism is apparently a crime, you know you’re in trouble, because that is a sign that democracy is dying.

Victoria is a disaster. There really is no other way to put it than that. The State that makes up 22% of Australia’s GDP, that bears the brunt of Australia’s economy, has been destroyed by a rogue, power-hungry Premier and his incompetent Government. Victorian small businesses are in ruins. The private sector has been completely screwed over. Private sector wages have fallen by $5.96 billion since the start of this lockdown, yet public sector wages have increased. That is practically wage theft. The private sector is what fuels the economy, and practically what pays the wages of the public sector, so you can only imagine what this means for Victoria going forward in terms of recovery. 21% of the workforce will be put out of work as a result of Daniel Andrews’ lockdowns. Businesses, jobs, income, and livelihoods have all been lost due to the harshest restrictions in the Western world. The mental health impact will be ginormous. Only yesterday, the Mona Castle Hotel, a pub in Footscray that had been open for 140 years, closed its doors permanently, unable to withstand the economic damage of the restrictions. That is a business that has been open since before FEDERATION. Andrews and Sutton have justified their actions by comparing Victoria to other countries like France, Spain, and the UK. Yet despite those being countries and having far greater case numbers than an Australian State, they are recording only a small fraction of the daily deaths in Victoria. All because of Government incompetence.

Victoria was once the most livable city in the world. Now it is the worst State in the country. That is not a reflection of the people, it is a reflection of the Premier, the Government, the Victorian Police (with exceptions of those who are not abusing their power of course), the health bureaucrats, and anyone else involved in the decision making, as well as those who support these decisions. Daniel Andrews is on the brink of sparking a class war. Civil unrest is likely to occur. Protests will continue. The rest of the country stands in solidarity with Victorians who just want their lives back.

Enough is enough. Far too much damage has been done. The curfew must be lifted. Restrictions must be loosened. Daniel Andrews must resign or be sacked. The Governor must do her job. The Parliament should be dissolved, and an election called. The people must be given the opportunity to choose what they want. Democracy must be revived and allowed to run its course.

Politicians must remember that in a democracy it is we the people who give them their power.  If they abuse it or try to take more than they have been given, they should expect the people to revolt.

Because while leaders may take power, democracy can take it back.

Earlier today, Victoria Police entered a family’s home, arresting a pregnant woman in front of her kids. They issued the family with a search warrant, read the woman her rights, and informed the family that they would be taking all their computers, phones and devices.

The “crime”? A Facebook post.

Watch for yourself below:

This is what Victoria has come to. Protest is now “illegal”, unless of course you’re Black Lives Matter. The Victorian Police have turned into the Gestapo, policing free speech, with Daniel Andrews running the State like a dictator. With changes made to the Public Health Act at 2am this morning to allow the Andrews Government to extend the State of Emergency, the tyranny is set to continue. Victorians will continue to be at the mercy of unelected bureaucrat Brett Sutton, Daniel Andrews and the Victorian Police. Freedom is dead.

I don’t care what you think about the restrictions. I don’t care what you think about the way COVID19 is being handled. I don’t care what side of politics you’re on. If you think this is ok, you are part of the problem.

This should concern all Australians. It is a violation of the rights and civil liberties of Victorians. Victoria is the only State with a Charter of Human Rights. It’s clear that has been completely ignored. The Victorian Government are allowing this to occur. They know full well what they are doing.

This is not only a disgrace to Victoria, it’s a disgrace to the entire nation.

In times of late, with the uprising of COVID19 around the world, climate change has been relegated to the benches, not so much in the spotlight as it used to be. It may seem odd, considering climate change was the method behind the madness of the push for full blown globalism, but times have changed. A new issue has come along, and the globalists surely are all over it. COVID19 is all over the world, and it is being weaponized by globalists.

You may wonder why climate change is no longer the issue of choice for those spruiking globalism. There is a fairly simple reason behind this change in approach. COVID19 is much more real, and thereby evokes much more of a reaction in the people. Thereby, it is much easier to take advantage of and convince people to fear. Whereas many are skeptical of climate change and the narrative presented by its perpetrators, almost everyone knows the virus is a reality. And although some are still skeptical as to the ins and outs, there is no doubt that COVID19 is in circulation.

COVID19 is all over the globe. It would therefore be seen as an easier strategy to push a globalist agenda. Yet, like the globalist spruiked climate change, the impact of the virus varies from country to country. Some countries are more affected than others, with each country approaching the response to the virus in its own way. Because of this, it may not be so simple to push globalism. The key factor in doing so is fear. If one country manages to find a way out without a vaccine, it could result in other countries following suit. So far, Sweden is the only country to have almost eviscerated the virus with minimal economic damage and should be applauded for doing so. Most other countries have followed the lockdown strategy, destroying their economies while the virus is only going to continue to exist. This is exactly what globalists like those in the United Nations and its branches (including the World Health Organisation), the European Union, the World Economic Forum and several other governmental bodies want. They want to build the globalist empire on the ruins of national economies.

One of the only leaders who has stood against globalism is President of the United States Donald Trump. One of the reasons Donald Trump is loathed by his political counterparts is because he is a nationalist. In other words, he is a patriot. He puts his country before the rest of the world, or as he would put it “America First”. Contrary to the views of globalists and a fair number of those on the Left, there is nothing wrong with this. Nationalism is not a bad thing. If anything, it’s a great thing to want to put your country first and be proud of the country you reside in. We could do with more nationalism in our world because it is what keeps democracy alive and prevents a potential one world government. We should all be putting our own countries ahead of others. Sure, countries can support each other, but in prioritizing our own countries before others, we ensure that we are in a position of prosperity, rather than giving out foreign aid when we are in decline.

The climate change line is becoming much less relevant now. While climate activist Greta Thunberg and her movement are still protesting, albeit socially distanced or from home, she has even announced she is going back to school. Yes, people are attempting to link the climate change line to COVID19, and Thunberg has met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel to talk to her about acknowledging and doing something about the so called “climate emergency”, however, there is no emergency in the realm of climate change. The only “emergency” anyone is concerned about now is COVID19. But they hype around the virus is even excessive.

Essentially what has happened is that the globalists of the world have found their golden goose. COVID19 is the perfect storm for these people. It has given governments too much power. It has put the people at the mercy of their elected officials and the authorities. It has screwed over businesses, destroyed people’s livelihoods, trapped people in their respective countries, even going so far as to imprison them in their own homes. And inevitably, it has led to corruption. One of the unfortunate tenets of humanity is that it is susceptible to corruption. Ultimately, it means people will do terrible things for their own personal gain. That includes exploiting a new virus.

Since the beginning of the outbreak, we have borne witness to corruption the world over. Agendas are being pushed, likely without many even realizing. Whilst everyone can see the governments of the world cultivating their power, there are other things that may not seem as obvious. Take the sudden opposition to hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malaria drug that has been in circulation for decades. No one was against it until it was found to be effective against COVID19 if used early on. Now it is being heavily restricted or even banned in places around the world, including in Queensland and Victoria, under the threat of fines for prescription or use of the medication. Make no mistake, this is a life-saving drug, but the elites with great power do not want you to have it. The reason is simple, they want this “pandemic” to continue for as long as possible. If there is a drug that cures COVID19, how are they going to be able to ensure people still fear this virus? They can’t. They would lose their opportunity to finally push out their agenda. That is the last thing they want.

Note how the World Health Organisation (WHO), the UN arm that is supposed to prevent disease outbreaks, let alone pandemics, has been giving mixed messages since the start of COVID19? They have effectively lied every step of the way and that has not changed. They told us human to human transmission was not occurring when it was. They verbally attacked the President Trump for closing off the US to China. They told us masks were ineffective. They’re against hydroxychloroquine. And of all people that they are discussing the vaccine with, it’s tech giant Bill Gates, who isn’t even a doctor. It begs the question; how can anyone trust these people? They’re glorified bureaucrats, just like those in charge of the health response here in Australia (Take Victorian Chief Health Officer (CHO) Brett Sutton, who’s actively running and destroying the State of Victoria and the once most livable city in the world, Melbourne). These people are dangerous. What’s more, they’re globalists. They may seem like they are there to help, but, in reality, they are the ones who allowed this virus to get to where it is, to spread around the globe. If the WHO had warned people earlier, we could have prevented COVID19 from even entering our countries. We could have saved our economies. And more recently, if Brett Sutton, & by extension Daniel Andrews, had done their job, Victoria would not have been subject to a “second wave” and had to lockdown all over again. They could have spared themselves from total economic annihilation if these unelected bureaucrats had just done their damn jobs.

There is something else that should have also caught the attention of the people. It is somewhat subtle, but it is there, nonetheless. There has been much talk about vaccines of late. Many governments and health officials, including unelected bureaucrats, have touted the vaccine as the only way out of this virus. Even though hydroxychloroquine is readily available and cheap, they want us to adjust to some “new normal”, or as some have referred to it “COVID normal”, never allowing us to go back to life as it was before COVID19 until a viable vaccine is in play. What’s more, our Australian Government are going to attempt to force us to take a vaccine which has been developed fairly quickly compared to others that take years, from a company that has made itself not liable for any issues that arise and which has had to pay out over $1.14 billion in penalties for violations since 2000. That doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. The vaccine may create side effects unknown until potentially years after it is taken. All you need do is think back to the thalidomide epidemic, a drug that was said to be fine at the time, but which ended up resulting in devastating side effects, including the deaths of thousands of children, and birth defects of thousands more. We should not have a rushed vaccine pushed on us. It’s plain dangerous. Yet the government and unelected health bureaucrats are touting “no jab no pay”, a system in which if you aren’t vaccinated, you will not be able to work, and will likely be unable to go to various venues, including cafes and restaurants. They will take your rights away from you simply because you are cautious about what you are putting into your body. It is reprehensible.

I want to make it clear that I am no anti-vaxxer. I have personally chosen to have all vaccines provided throughout high school, and for travel, as well as the flu shot each year. However, the more I look into this vaccine and all that surrounds it, the more skeptical I become of it. The one Australia is signing up for is the Oxford one developed by a company called AstraZeneca. This company has chosen to use a cell line in their vaccine that is taken from an aborted foetus. That’s right, an aborted human baby. This is no rarity in vaccine production. In fact, it is shockingly common. If you’re skeptical, I encourage you to look up VAQTA, HAVRIX, PRIORIX and Varivax, all commonly used vaccines, with the term MRC-5, which are the cell lines used from aborted human foetuses (I’ll leave links to each one at the bottom of this article). This raises a major ethical dilemma, with many being against abortion, and thus against having a product made using aborted babies injected into them. When coupled with the government’s veiled threat to remove some of our rights, as well as our jobs, if we refuse to take the vaccine, it results in a conundrum of great proportions. Essentially, you face losing your job/freedoms or going against your own values/morals. There are also concerns that have previously been raised around vaccines made using cell lines from aborted foetuses, primarily the risk of insertional mutagenesis, the creation of DNA mutations which can cause cancer. If anything, this vaccine is not all sunshine and roses.

As if things could not get any lower, one more thing that has been occurring during the time of COVID19 is fraud surrounding the death toll. Medical facilities are receiving more funding for each COVID19 death they record. That’s right, they are exploiting people’s deaths for money. There have been a number of cases where family members have had doctors ask to record deaths from a range of other conditions, including terminal cancer, as COVID deaths. This has been occurring in Australia, particularly in Victoria. On August 20, Victorian CHO Brett Sutton was asked about classification of COVID deaths. He responded with the following answer:

“For deaths from coronavirus, anyone who’s a confirmed case who dies is classified amongst coronavirus deaths. So, it doesn’t have to be definitively from coronavirus. And in some instances, in aged care, there would have been some residents who were already receiving palliative care who became infected with coronavirus, so it’s not definitive about whether they’ve died with or from coronavirus…but for classification purposes, for recording purposes, that’s the definition.”

In that response, Sutton has effectively admitted that deaths that have been recorded as COVID deaths may not have resulted from COVID, thus resulting in inflated numbers to cause even more fear. This is fraud. It should trigger alarm bells for everyone. If they can do this so easily, imagine what else they are capable of. You will also very rarely, if ever, hear the recovery rates, because they would help to dispel fear, and thus put a pin in the hopes of globalists. Why? Because the recovery rates are very high. Make no mistake, this is all about increasing fear. What these people are doing is criminal.

Globalism has created many of the problems we now face. If COVID19 has taught us anything, it is that bureaucrats should not be running countries, and that we cannot allow a globalist regime to occur. Globalists are going to use COVID19 as an excuse to continue towards their goal of ultimate power and pursue some sort of one world government. We should have known from the start that they would exploit this virus for their own personal and political gain. You really have to think about this: COVID19 is nowhere near as bad as they have made it out to be. Yes, it has taken lives, a tragedy in every way. Yet tens, even hundreds, of thousands die from the flu and related respiratory illnesses each year and we do not lockdown and destroy the economy. Thousands die in car accidents each year, but we do not remove vehicles from the roads. Millions die from abortion each year, yet we allow abortion facilities to continue to operate, even going so far as to legislate in its favour in some States.

We need to start thinking about what happens if there is no vaccine. We need to start rebuilding our economy before globalists take advantage of the destruction. Globalism is the true virus. It leads to the destruction of democracy. It puts us at the mercy of other countries. It leads to absurd laws that end free speech and results in self-censorship. We cannot allow the tendrils of globalism to get a grasp on our country, on our world.

That will only end in despair.
