WE ARE NOT RACISTS! Says family descended from medieval selective breeding program.
We might be Nazis, but we are not racists, is the defence emanating from the House of Windsor as the fallout from the Harry and Meghan interview with Oprah Winfrey continues to shake the foundations of the monarchy.
The Duke of Edinburgh, already dead by all accounts, is ‘recuperating’ in hospital while the remaining monarchs are left to pretend his track record of racist off-the-cuff remarks about ‘people of colour’ somehow didn’t occur – are left floundering wondering how on earth they’re going to respond to this latest crisis.
It’s not so much that they don’t like black people or Asians, it’s just that those of pure Germanic origin tend to be more photogenic and accustomed to dressing up in fancy uniforms with or without military paraphernalia. It’s all very high-camp, but obviously not in a gay way (in case there’s any misunderstanding about that). Just ask Prince Edward.
No, the monarchy is performing just as it should. Reminding us that aside from the occasional ‘indiscretion’ (Charles and Camilla, Diana and Dodi Fayed, Fergie and the toe-sucker, Prince Andrew and anything in a skirt), they are upstanding citizens of the highest order, well-deserving of their lives of extravagant taxpayer-funded wealth and privilege for generations to come.
Besides, those ribbons aren’t going to cut themselves.

BRENDAN O’NEILL: Thou shalt not criticise St Meghan. “But what is indisputable is that a weird, unsettling and censorious atmosphere of religiosity now surrounds the Duchess of Sussex. The cultural elites have beatified her. They’ve made her the patron saint of critical race theory, the goddess of wokeness. To venture a criticism of this high priestess of correct thought is to risk cancellation.”

Not really, perhaps: just a prepositioned attempt to freeze time at a point where (dis)interested persons, via the ABC and etcetera, knew as little as Christian, and others, said he did on, and/or around, Performative Outing Day; and, thereby, to erase all (other)ed) (a)contextual memory(ies), accordingly; which, fortunately, is (still?) nothing like coordinated, premeditated gaslighting; or a (self-)suggested and (well-)considered (legally-)privileged) assessment of (not-)okayness.)
Not really
After those two words, I’ve got no idea what you’re trying to say.
I think it’s great that people are suing the media for defamation.
Rebel Wilson and Geoffrey Rush were successful against spiteful media gossip.
Porter has said he will give sworn evidence and has challenged the ABC to use truth as a defence.
That seems like a satisfactory way through this. The ALP should be satisfied too, because it means Shorten won’t be roped into an inquiry

Why would the Biden administration care? People here tell me it’s all ScoMo’s fault because he hurt China’s feelings.
Yes, but they’re also unable to identify the statement that Morrison made to justify their outrage. Apparently it’s in the vibe

Anther term is ‘poking the bear’
The more common one is ‘racism’!
Calling out attempts to buy off politicians, or identifying national security issues is not racism
Clive Hamilton wrote a chapter about that lazy response/tactic from apologists for the CCP
China is Tom R’s kryptonite! When it comes to commos he can’t resist the real deal!
Calling out attempts to buy off politicians, or identifying national security issues is not racism
No
But calling someone ‘Shanghai Sam’ is
Calling it the ‘China Virus’ is
Assuming espionage is ALWAYS from China is
Blocking the Belt and Road for Victoria, because it’s from China, but at the same time, selling an entire Port to them, is certainly a very weird form of racism, like, China are different when it’s those commie Labor states?
When it comes to commos
Case in point. 😉
***SMACK***

… AND LET THAT BE A LESSON TO ANYONE ELSE WHO FEELS LIKE GETTING UPPITY
Tom R’s response- “thank you sir, we’ve learnt our lesson”
The Vic Govt recently complied with a directive to disclose to the Feds all deals they’ve done with foreign powers. Andrews has sniffed the wind and knows the public is suspicious of China and its motives.
AND LET THAT BE A LESSON TO ANYONE ELSE WHO FEELS LIKE GETTING UPPITY
You spelled RACIST wrong at the end there yomm.
Andrews has sniffed the wind and knows the public is suspicious of China and its motives.
I think you mean ‘all countries’ and their motives 😉
I think you mean ‘all countries’ and their motives
Yeah, nah. Victoria doesn’t have deals with ‘all countries’. Mainly just the CCP.
I see the libs are doing what they do best, and throwing unsubstantiated hsit at Labor (and also GetUp) about harassment. Harassment that was investigated t the time, and cleared both Labor and GetUp.
But our media forget that, and run the libs line. It’s almost as if it is … orchestrated?

Yeah! When democratic countries had that tiff with Germany 80 years ago, that was racist too.
It seems we just can’t learn our lessons about non racist non bullies
Clearly criticism of a brutal dictatorship that is in dispute with each of its neighbours is racism.
I see the relationship between benevolent China and that racist Justin Trudeau have reached a new low.
He must be Canada’s equivalent of our racist Prime Minister
Is the Vietnamese Government racist? That’s a difficult one, but probably (in a nicer way)
“But calling someone ‘Shanghai Sam’ is”
How the fuck is that racist? Shanghai is a place, not a race. Associating a corrupt Labor (but I repeat myself) politician with the source of his funds is fair comment. Nothing racist about it. As usual you are screaming racism where there is none.
Is it OK for the CCP and its minions to curry favour with Australian politicians by generous financial arrangements with them? Apparently we can’t talk about that (but only in the case of China) without being called ‘racist’ by morally and intellectually bankrupt stooges of the genocidal CCP.
“Calling it the ‘China Virus’ “ Then referring to the South African strain or the English strain must also be racist. There is a long history of referring to diseases by places associated with them. But all the hypocritical China felchers can do is yell racist. That is the modus operandi of dumb leftist cunts who prefer to screech derision rather than argue logically.
Truly, you make Q Anon seem sane and principled.
No, no… we’re the racists and China is teaching us a lesson for our own good.
China has been patient and we have been wayward.
It’s obviously racist to claim we’re not racist
Associating a corrupt Labor
Yea, he was so corrupt, he declared the money publicly. Unlike some people who Rolex watches ffs
Yeah! When democratic countries had that tiff with Germany 80 years ago, that was racist too
Yea Yea, when Germany separated one group of people out for different treatment to the rest, just like we are currently doing with China, was THAT racist?
Then referring to the South African strain or the English strain must also be racist.
Because ones a ‘strain’ Yea, I know, only words, aren’t they. It’s like nobody learnt from the “Spanish Flu” years, did they?
Recent pic of Tom R:
(Obviously, I’d prefer to continue discussing Our PNG charm offensive/vaccination program; but, I thought I’d just very bravely linkdrop this here, before rushing off to take a very important international call.)
So many racist governments.
The Philippines, India, Indonesia, Vietnam, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Brunei, Nepal, Bhutan, Laos, Myanmar, Canada, France, Germany…
All racist. Because all have disputes/poor/deteriorating relations with China, who only wants peace and goodwill for all!

Indeed; SARS-Cov-2, aka The Andromeda Strain, does/n’t have quite the same ring to it as The Pleiades Virus.)
(They’re our family, they’re our friends, they’re our neighbours,” Morrison said of PNG. “This is in Australia’s interests and it is in our region’s interests and it’s incumbent on us as Australians both to secure the health of our own citizens but equally our PNG family who are so dear to us.”)
“Because ones a ‘strain’ “
That is a distinction without a difference, you racist fuck.
“It’s like nobody learnt from the “Spanish Flu” years, did they?”
Oh, the horror of it all! Spaniards have never really recovered from that horrendous bout of racism. And the same sort of racism is tearing Australia to pieces. We need urgent legislation to protect the residents of Hendra, Bairnsdale and the Murray Valley. Ross River needs to be renamed. In fact reparations should be paid to the residents of these places. I can’t even begin to imagine what it is like to live a life burdened by such a stigma!
That is a distinction without a difference, you racist fuck.
Tell it to the scientists, you Genius genus
https://www.latimes.com/science/story/2021-02-04/whats-difference-between-variant-strain-coronavirus
Oh, the horror of it all! Spaniards have never really recovered from that horrendous bout of racism
Calling it what it is a first step splats, well done splats 😉
Spaniards called the highly contagious disease “The Soldier of Naples” after a catchy song popular at the time. But when the deadly virus exploded across the world and became known as “Spanish influenza,” Spain protested that its people were being falsely stigmatized.
President Trump is sparking similar complaints by referring to the coronavirus as the “Chinese virus” because it probably started in Wuhan, China. He did it again during a nationally televised news briefing Sunday night. Critics say the president is unfairly stigmatizing all Chinese people, while the president contends he is just stating facts.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2020/03/23/spanish-flu-chinese-virus-trump/
“Tell it to the scientists”
I was talking about your suggestion that the toponymous naming of a strain of a disease was somehow less racist than the toponymous naming of the disease. Now that is a distinction without a difference!
“Spaniards called the highly contagious disease “The Soldier of Naples” after a catchy song popular at the time. But when the deadly virus exploded across the world and became known as “Spanish influenza,” Spain protested that its people were being falsely stigmatized.”
So the Spaniards were hypocrites! The Neapolitans should be pissed!
Tom R – expert in semantics. I’ll summarise his principled position-
* Naming a deadly ailment after it’s likely country of origin is racist.
* Naming a deadly ailment after it’s likely country of origin isn’t racist.
* Identifying cultural idiosyncrasies/peculiarities of a country is racist
* Identifying cultural idiosyncrasies/peculiarities of a country isn’t racist
So the Spaniards were hypocrites!
That doesn’t change the argument though, does it.
* Naming a deadly ailment after it’s likely country of origin is Wrong (‘likely’ being the opportune word there). But is very racist especially in the context that it is presented
* Naming a deadly ailment after it’s likely country of origin isn’t wrong, because it helps identify a source of a particular strain, with no blame associated.
* Identifying cultural idiosyncrasies/peculiarities of a country is racist. CONTEXT.
* Identifying cultural idiosyncrasies/peculiarities of a country isn’t racist (see above 😉 )
Yeah. There are no rules that can be applied to racism because it’s all about the CONTEXT of Tom R’s choice
Sadly, the CONTEXT in Tom R’s case is the descent of his once-agile mind into the cesspit of zombie trolldom.
Now this is how you poke a bear:
Biden says Putin is a killer and doesn’t have a soul
In Australia experts warn that Russia may be distracting the US from its more important strategic threat – China.
dog we are FIXATED!
The racism CONTEXT (vibe) thing is a bit of a conundrum.
* Americans have an ugly and violent gun culture (**not racist)
* Lebanese have an ugly and violent gun culture (**racist)
* African Americans use guns and have higher murder rate than other demographics (**racist)
I just want to say ALP/Greens mislead and deceive people
As a Conservative Australian i have no idea who to vote for anymore
I could never vote ALP/Greens because they mislead and deceive people like TB of Queensland

Huge extinction rebellion protest in Melbourne this morning. There are six protestors and a truck in the middle of the intersection on the corner of Flinders and Elizabeth Streets. Six protestors!
“Six protestors!”
The sooner they are extincted the better! They will get more attention (and also do the world a favour) if they self-immolate.
Cancel culture is rotten. It will inevitably cannibalise its own. Maybe when enough woke wankers get cancelled there will be some attempt at moderation.
(It was fun watching the Minters moron CEO get cancelled).

Gonna be a Sgt Shultz morning there I reckon 😉
“Gonna be a
Sgt ShultzRunning Dog Dan morning there I reckon”Schultz is an amateur compared to Dan. Which is why we still don’t know who made the decision that made itself, who chose to go with that bunch of crooks Unified Security, who tipped them off to get their employees online training and who the CEO spoke and texted with on the day the contracts were awarded.
I hope that whatever happens today will not likely be as corrupt and rotten as the Coate inquiry appeared to be.
Schultz is an amateur compared to Dan
It’s confusing, isn’t it
Dan doesn’t say anything. But he has hours long press interviews, where, according to hte same mob who reckon he says nothing, he does nothing but lie
It’s all so confusing
How confusing is this?
“It’s confusing, isn’t it”
Not at all we’ve seen this dog and pony show before. Running Dog Dan has all the hallmarks of Granny Killer Cuomo. The pattern is strikingly similar – using interminable boring press conferences while hiding the truth from the people. Meanwhile press accolades are heaped on the moral monster.
Like Cuomo, Dan gives long blithering passive-aggressive interviews by turns sniveling and then bullying. We still don’t know who made the decision which killed 800 Victorians. We don’t know the details of how the crooks came to be appointed. The one thing he does not do is actually explain how he became Australia’s largest mass killer.
Not at all we’ve seen this dog and pony show before.
Yes, like when cash told estimates that her statement to the AFP could be considered her statement to estimates; when her statement to the AFP was “see what I said in estimates”
Who would have thought it would all cum down to this?
Indeed, Tom R. Surely you were moved to tears at the Prime Minister being moved to tears? Now we can all have a good cry and go back to business as usual.
You mean those tears he shed just before he released private information about a similar case at newscorpse (if he isn’t just lying again?)
Watch for the smirk at the end. From tears to smirk in record time

Tom R, you have a bad case of objectophobia. Your hateful stance is very hurtful to objectophiles everywhere.
OTOH, it is good to see the Libs fulfilling their own prophecy even if they are a bit behind the rest of the world.
This is hilarious – Harris ’empowered’ herself by sleeping with a Democrat power-broker old enough to be her father. And Bill Clinton empowered a young female intern by sexually assaulting her with a cigar in the Oval Office.
Tom R, you have a bad case of objectophobia.
I OBJECT-a-phobia is an irrational fear or aversion of objections, isn’t it? I love objecting 🙂

I just got some junk mail from Clive Palmer. He says there is no one-year safety data, no three-year safety data or five-year safety data for the use of the COVID-19 vaccine

Cheap wine tastes better if the price tag is bumped up, scientists have revealed.
It’s thanks to a new study on whether expensive wine is really worth the cash…But it suggests that for the average consumer, the price on your bottle of wine might not matter so much.
So it may be worth settling for some cheap booze rather than paying over the odds for a posh bottle at your next party. And always drink responsibly.

Isn’t Passover a Jewish “thing”
“he’s not even a Manager ” Don’t you worry about that ol’sock, slomo is running a spectacular blue gaggle if ever there was one. Just keep enjoying the on-going episodes of the blue gaggle hurling itself head first into their ‘knot a woman problem pond of quicksand’ as it likes to do from time to time.`
“arrogant one day, plague ridden the next ” Psst, primates in glass kooyongs shouldn’t throw poo at banana glass houses. You must have missed the bit of 2020 while boltsvillage primates were locked down, that also a bunch of boltsvillage poultry farms had to destroy stock due to another superbug, sars?, birdflu?, h1n1?`
“How good are vaccinations? ” Hey teamcheerer, there are just shy of eight billion primates on the planet. There will be at least 2-billion ‘unjabbed’ baby primates, probably closer to 3-billion baby primates, being left to huddle together in kindergartens and colleges to cough and breath on each other, passing the superbug back and forth and around and around, giving the superbug plenty of chance to mutate. This just might be ‘antidote to the node’ if the superbug mutates before the 5-to 6-billion primates get their jab. Then we are back in 2020.`
(Isn’t Passover a Jewish “thing”
Um, maybe.
From re:collective memory, it had something to do with staying@home whilst scrupulously observing a public health safety advisory, and something of an air of inevitability about potentially deadly consequences amongst those whose (un)particular families and communities heedlessly ignored that (fore)warning.
But, then again, as a story involving supernatural themes, and, therefore, as narrated, being inherently unreliable, along with evidencing a whole host of other incompetencies and incompatibilities with ‘actual‘ domains of knowledge, that sort of “thing” possibly deserves to wear, and/or to be forced to wear, a little star, of one kind or another, indicating to any prospective audience that it’s purely *for entertainment purposes only.
Or, something like that.)
Yer dead right, v … there’s even a fillum about it!
Hey, teabagz … I see your sentence structure is still deteriorating … but I get the gist … especially about the primates and the jabs … numbers are bloody ‘uge!

“numbers are bloody ‘uge! ” yep .. and l don’t see the the clowntown blue gaggle firing-up adf/a resources they control (getting corpman, medics, quacks, nurses jabbed) to then do bases, remote areas, nearby towns etc .. seem to be trying to porkbarrel ama quacks, at risk to whole muppet island by delaying jabs.`
“just a right wing marketing plot? ” Nah .. usual incompetent imbeciles .. backing nonWinners as usual .. ‘astra’ is 3-months between jabs .. pfizer is just 2 or 3 weeks between jabs .. my family is ready for the pfizer jabs yesterday .. get it done and dusted.`

I don’t want to take it. There must be some people concerned about taking something that has not had proper clinical trials.
None of us want … overdoses, tebagz!

I posted up the page what was written on some junk mail Clive Palmer sent out across the country. This is what it said

five-year safety data

Most vaccines go through a lot of testing before they hit the market. So the vaccine has not had the usual clinical trials. So it looks like they are trialing it on the politicians and whoever gets it next.
I do not want to take it. If it becomes compulsory i do not know what i would do
So it looks like they are trialing it on the politicians
Thank goodness for that!

Once had a lot of fun with Tommy and Artie Beetson on a flight to Townsville … they were on a coaching trip … I remember saying to Artie “Do we still talk to him, mate?” Artie said something along the lines of “Sure, but I talk down to him” (for the iggorant – Artie was big lad … Tommy was one of the little blokes)
He may have been a Cockroach but he’ll be sadly missed … pleased to have met him …

It is a good idea to trial the vaccine on politicians. They can be the guinea pigs. Also when the next war looks likely the politicians should be sent to the front line..
But i do not want to take the vaccine. Apparently one of the vaccines is totally different to all previous vaccines. It interacts with your RNA or something i do not understand.
It’s true, this vaccine has been rushed through.
But rushing does not equate to missing crucial checks and balances. People volunteered themselves as guinea pigs to shave years off early testing. Sars vaccines have also been in heavy development for many years, and since COVID is simply a SARS virus, much of the groundwork was already done.
And if that is not enough for the faint, or stupid, of heart, MILLIONS of people around the world have already had it. Thanks to our grubmmints close incompetence, we’ll be years yet to worry about it.
Anybody who listens to palmer, after his long history of very public and blatant lies, needs their heads read, and probably should have been forced into being one of the early ‘volunteers’
“I don’t want to take it. There must be ” That’s ok, l don’t want you to take it either (-:`

Agreed, Tom R. Trump’s Operation Warp Speed was one of his finest moments (among many).
Operation Warp Speed
Not everyone can fuck up all the time.
Interestingly, possible the best vaccine Pfizer refused to participate. Not that means the initiative was bad, it seemed to have done it’s job remarkably well, was just interesting as a side note/
What number lockdown will this one be? I can’t keep
Quiet?
Pace?

Please, elucidate for us yomm?
The vaccine rollout is too slow! Why aren’t the plebs panicking (as instructed by their intellectual and moral superiors on twitter)?

Thank goodness. I propose the vaccine should be tried on all ALP/Greens supporters. And then after 12 months if they are still alive i might consider taking it.

Yeah, but nah–uh.)
What gets me is all the leftists/socialists are keen to take the vaccine.
That is all the information i need not to trust the vaccine
Apparently there’s a problem with the AstraZeneca vaccine if you’re under 50. But the rollout has been too slow!
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-04-08/scott-morrison-announces-pfizer-preferred-for-younger-people/100057184
(….But the rollout has been too slow!
What? The belated ‘securing’ an administration of an extra 10 million doses of Pfizer (after the government effectively went all-in on a hypothetical vaccine highly recommended (?) by an AZ director with overt (former?-)LNP affiliations; and ‘sovereign manufacturing’, by a privatised and publicly-listed CSL, almost entirely reliant on imported and licensed tech, precursors, and batch check; and to which a public-confidence-boosting commitment remains(?))? The vaccine Scotty needed to make a big deal about taking to convince the plebs to ‘trust the vaccine’? Quelle surprise!
But how many doses of Pfizer are there actually on hand and/or due for shipment, and when; and isn’t it fortunate that ‘phasing’ was always part of ‘the plan’ (except for a little bit of overlap and underlap, at the margins of peculiar exposure and/or vulnerability; thanks to the very professional TGA, which can only work with what’s ‘available’, oh, and that (ante)pen)ultimate oversighting and coordinating thingy headed up by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Minister (K)Hunt)?)
(And then after 12 months if they are still alive i might consider taking it.
Apparently, you might be waiting to find out for a bit longer than 12 months; especially as it’s, also, apparently, now necessary to take the time to assess the implications…of a national-cabinet(s)-in-confidence) revue.)
Apparently there’s a problem with the AstraZeneca vaccine if you’re under 50. But the rollout has been too slow!
Yes, and yes. But both come with caveats 😉

Apparently, if you gut your CSIRO, they have trouble coming up with their own solutions, as they used to. WHO‘d have thought it?

“ Since last year, Labor has been calling on the Morrison Government to get five or six vaccine deals – for a situation exactly like this.”
No worries Albo. They have four agreements – so one-to-two fewer than the arbitrary number you pulled out of your arse.
https://www.health.gov.au/node/18777/australias-vaccine-agreements
so one-to-two fewer than the arbitrary number you pulled out of your arse.
Actually, there are only three different vaccines there in your ‘agreements’, and we have only bought two, the largest buy being the cheapest.
And the key point there is ‘fewer’, and, both the opposition, and leading epidemiologists, have been calling for more options from the beginning
If we fail now, it’s not because of ignorance, it’s because of ineptness

“And the key point there is ‘fewer’”
Fewer than Albo’s five or six? Yeah, why not seven or eight then? There’s no science involved. It’s just a Labor talking point.
There’s no science involved.

I mean, an epidemiologist IS a scientist, aren’t they?
“ I mean, an epidemiologist IS a scientist, aren’t they?”
Appeal to authority. Are epidemiologists proficient at negotiating deals with pharmaceutical companies? Anyone, including labor politicians and some as yet unnamed epidemiologists, can say there aren’t enough deals. Or, the rollout is too slow. Even you can say those things.
Appeal to authority.
ROFL
I distinctly recall someone declaring “There’s no science involved. “So, when I point out that, yes, science certainly WAS involved, you start crying about this ‘appeal to authority. So, do you want science, or not? Simple question.
Are epidemiologists proficient at negotiating deals with pharmaceutical companies? </i.
Should we go through the list of countries this mob have pissed off, not including China. I mean, just this week, he pissed of the entire EU again. I'm pretty sure an epidemiologist could have performed better.
Let's not forget that we were told, not that long ago, that we were "front of the queue". Guess we were just in the wrong queue 😉
“ “So, when I point out that, yes, science certainly WAS involved,”
No, it wasn’t. According to you, some unnamed epidemiologist gave their opinion about government policy decisions.
some unnamed epidemiologist gave their opinion about government policy decisions.
NO
a number of LEADING (in some sort of appeal I guess) epidemiologistSSS gave their professional advice on the best course of action.
The Labor Party, as is their wont, seems to have listened to this
appeal to authorityprofessional advice. The libs, again, ignored the science, and went with their cheap and nasty option.“ a number of LEADING (in some sort of appeal I guess) epidemiologistSSS gave their professional advice on the best course of action.”
No worries. A link to these epidemiologists’ professional advice might show you’re not just making shit up.
A link you say?

How far into these links do we need to go sate the unstated?
What does ‘forefront’ mean?
Okay, that’s one – one! – opinion from one epidemiologist. Hardly evidence of the correctness or otherwise of the “there aren’t enough deals” talking point.

When a scientists says ‘I think’, you should listen. Because, they thinking on their scientific experience
“I Think” they just may have been right (and so was Albanese to agree with them) 😉
(Always double-and/or-nothing-down on those secure(d) Monte Carlo scenarios; just a lay person’s (ex)plain(ed) English, (un)scientific opinion; for no and/or some reason; and certainly not because someone’s number(s) demonstrably is(/are) up and/or down, (un)scientifically-speaking.)
“When a scientists says ‘I think’, you should listen.”
I think you think scientists’ thinks are worth more than anyone else’s thinks, because they got themselves a degree.
“I think, therefore I yam.” ~ Popeye

One problem with Science is that it is funded by grants. Most scientists do not have permanent jobs. So to keep their jobs they need to make claims that may or may not be true.
Like the Barrier Reef is dying because of Climate Change. Send more money to pay my salary or the reef may die
In Science you have terrified people who may lose their jobs if the current grant they apply for does not happen

Ok Prince Phillip is old. I doubt anybody who posts here will make it to 99. But i did wonder if the jab shortened his life by say 6-12months. An old man may not be able to take the stress of the covid 19 jab
I do not want to take it. I read the golfer Greg Norman got the virus and he said he would not wish the pain on anybody. But he survived. I would rather have the pain of the virus rather than death from the jab

After laughing heartily at the stream of memes. my wife pointed out that, whatever his failings were (oh, they were many) Someone just lost their life partner. My wife, while not a Royalist, adored Princess Di, and respects the Queen a lot, even though she cannot understand how Royalty exists in this day and age. To be fair, far worse things exist that shouldn’t
Not only that, the Duke himself dedicated his life to playing second fiddle to a woman in order to maintain stability for a country he owed no allegiance too. (I also heard, he and his were Danish, no Greek blood either?)
I still laughed, but with a slightly different attitude to it.
99 is a pretty good innings/ What I do laugh at, is those claiming it’s some conspiracy. There’s always the crazies out there.
Yes TB, the master of announcements has announced there will be no more announcements announcing the Jab timeline.
He announced this on facebook, not a Government site. History is written by those who can hide away the nasties best I guess? Interesting choice after his recent embarrassment with them.
The cover ups here indicate that there is obviously nothing to see here.
NSW police passed up SA offer to take statement alleging sexual assault against Christian Porter
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/apr/11/nsw-police-passed-up-sa-offer-to-take-statement-alleging-sexual-assault-against-christian-porter
TR, the Feds have thoroughly stuffed the logistics of covid vaccinations as explained to me today by my GP (he’s a muso, too, so we get on well) … I have regular quarterly checkups …
Anyhoo … the conversation got around to the covid jab and what advice did he have for The Minister and me.
In brief … get the jab … AstraZeneca is OK the blood clot issue is about 1:500,000 the risk of death from covid infection is much higher … however …
He couldn’t give us the covid jab … GPs originally had to tender to deliver it and provide medical records of those that received the covid jab (that would have stopped us anyway – I refuse to have my personal medical data supplied to a government data base) …. then the GPs didn’t have to apply … then only some GPs could get it … (see a pattern here)
Our GP does approximately 60 flu injections a day from May on (including The Minister and me) … covid “approved” GPs are receiving 40 doses of vaccine a day …
What struck me was that a network of GPs handle the flu jab every year why not the same for covid? IT.IS.ALREADY.ESTABLISHED!
Just use it – no tenders, no detailed records handed over … just business as usual … the records are availbale in case of an issue.
And what do people do who do not visit their GP on a regular basis?
There is a lot of chatter about “hubs” … why? … there are GPs in every community.
BTW, there has to be a two week break between the flu and the covid jab …
Today our GP referred us to another local Medical Centre (five minute walk) to book for for the covid hit.
We are booked for Covid early May … and flu early June …
What fuss over what should have been a simple injection plan roll-out …
