A scene (not seen on mainstream news) from the recent protest in Melbourne…
For those who don’t know, Australia Fair is the national anthem1, and these are the lyrics…
Australians all let us rejoice, For we are one and free; We’ve golden soil and wealth for toil; Our home is girt by sea; Our land abounds in nature’s gifts Of beauty rich and rare; In history’s page, let every stage Advance Australia Fair. In joyful strains then let us sing, Advance Australia Fair.
Beneath our radiant Southern Cross We’ll toil with hearts and hands; To make this Commonwealth of ours Renowned of all the lands; For those who’ve come across the seas We’ve boundless plains to share; With courage let us all combine To Advance Australia Fair. In joyful strains then let us sing, Advance Australia Fair.
Why the protest?
For the most part Saturday was about “Kill the Bill” protest against these dictatorial laws Dan Andrews is trying to install (as well as vaccine mandates and medical apartheid).
(Thanks to Caldron Pool for use of the above illustration.)
Daniel Andrewswants the powers of a dictator. The Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Pandemic Management) Bill 2021 - which is before the Victorian Parliament has been described as “the most extreme, dangerous and excessive laws” the State has ever seen. Actually, it is probably the most dangerous law ever seen in this nation, and the danger is to democracy and freedom.
In one Bill, Daniel Andrews is attempting to sideline the Victorian Chief Health Officer and grant himself unchecked power to declare a State of Emergency and decree health orders based on an individual’s age, gender, sexual orientation and political belief or activity.
This legislation would remove any consideration of the impact of lockdowns, restrictions or penalties on equal opportunity or human rights laws, bypass Cabinet and Parliamentary approvals and place enormous power in the hands of one person.
Under these laws Victorians face a $21,909 fine for failing to wear a face mask and business a $109,044 fine if a customer fails to check-in properly.
Hang in there, Aussies! Freedom is coming.....
