Citing “jurisdictional issues“, the severe COVID compliance office of Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews has reversed a significant portion of the vaccine mandate.  Details are oddly sketchy to find; however, it appears Victoria State government workers and workers within the judiciary will no longer be mandated to accept the COVID-19 vaccination.

(Sky News) […] All Commonwealth employees as well as people who work in connection with court proceedings will be exempt with a government spokesperson saying the relaxation is an attempt to avoid “jurisdictional limitations”.  The change will apply to judges, lawyers, security guards and police officers. (read more).

It would appear this reversal is due to an issue in a similar vein to ‘separation of powers’.    This sets up an unusual dynamic.  The vaccine mandate still exists for everyone in the private sector; because of course it does.  However, a judge hearing a case that challenges the vaccine mandate would themselves not be subject to the same state-wide mandate argued in their court.

**I’ll keep looking, but if you find anything I’d be interested to see what the official reasoning is.

UPDATE: The mandate guideline is HERE in pdf Form.  But the reason for the distinction between Government and Judicial employees (page 5) is not outlined.

The headline might seem a little odd; but, then again, isn’t everything upside down as we walk through Alice’s COVID-19 looking glass.

Factually, Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping and the Mullahs in Iran could not purposefully shift the global image of western democracy in the way the leaders of many nations have done all by themselves.  However, as Russian state television provides their viewers with actual scenes on the ground in Australia, there’s a disconcerting irony that starts to become even more worrisome.

Imagine you are a terrorist member of the Taliban, ISIS, AQAP, Hezbollah, the PLO, or executing genocide on behalf of the Lord’s Resistance Army in Uganda.  Or perhaps you lead a Marxist government like Cuba or Venezuela.  Is there anything more valuable than being able to transmit these kind of images as propaganda toward those you victimize?

At least there used to be a difference between brutal dictatorships and western democracies.   Now, however, the world watches as those western nations accept this:

It’s not a surprise to see China, Russia and Iran allowing their citizens to see what is happening in Australia.  If you were a citizen in Taiwan, could China create a more impactful message to manipulate you toward a psyche of resignation?   Think about it….

Yesterday, Florida’s Governor asked if the U.S. needed to reconsider diplomatic relations with Australia over the brutal police state that has taken over several states in the nation.  Today, Fox News Host Tucker Carlson outlined some of the details of the police state that has taken over Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.  WATCH:

.

Approximately two hours after this Tucker Carlson segment aired, the Premier of Victoria (Melbourne), Daniel Andrews, informed all citizens of the state they must take a vaccine by October 15th if they want to work, and anybody who attempts to protest that demand will be immediately arrested by police.  Watch Below:

The Police in/around Melbourne Australia (State of Victoria) are becoming very uncomfortable that people are recording their beatings and brutality and posting them on social media.  In an effort to stop media reporting on the continued police actions, law enforcement is now attempting to block media from being present.

Kudos to Avi Yemini and Rebel News for refusing to acquiesce to the police thug tactics.  Watch this insufferable exhibition of lawless cops with guns and badges attempting to intimidate Rebel News.

Anyone who has watched events unfold in Victoria (Melbourne), or New South Wales (Sydney) in Australia, will admit no other westernized nation on earth has responded to COVID-19 with such extreme brutality by government toward their citizens.  The view of Australia as a place of respect for minority rights, expressions of liberty, and the principle of inherent freedom has been destroyed.

Looking from the outside, Australia is now viewed as a totalitarian dictatorship more akin to North Korea than the U.K.

No democratic nation on earth has become more draconian and totalitarian in their effort to control their citizens than Australia.   Quarantine camps, international and inter-state travel bans, harsh lock-downs and proximity limits, physical checkpoints operated by police and military, and brutal police tactics where violence is frequently used against their own citizens.  The entire landscape of democracy in Australia has slowly been destroyed in the past 18 months, and it is only getting worse.

Australian citizens are now forced to have their physical location monitored through electronic passports and check-in points where a central government database can watch where people are.  Additionally, all six states have now announced that only vaccinated people will be permitted to engage in society when/if they ever make the decision to open their economy.

Yesterday, a major U.S. politician finally had the nerve to address the issue.  Speaking at the International Boat Builders’ Exhibition and Conference in Tampa, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis warned that Australia has gone too far when it comes to restricting freedoms, as it battles an outbreak of the highly contagious Delta variant.

Governor DeSantis called out the brutality of Australia and questioned if the United States should reassess our diplomatic relationship with the regime down-under, if we are to now accept Australia as more ideologically aligned with the communist Chinese system instead of the principles of freedom and individual liberty.

Pay close attention to what Victoria, Australia, Health Minister Martin Foley says at the 2:45 minute mark of his comments.

Health Minister Foley announced 867 new COVID cases recorded yesterday.  During the statistical outline Foley identifies 375 people as hospitalized, 81 people in intensive care and 61 people on a ventilator.   Then comes the statistic everyone in government and media ignore.  Amid the recorded cases “78% of the hospital cases are fully vaccinated, and 17% are partially vaccinated (1 dose)”….

That means 95% of the COVID patients in Victoria hospitals are vaccinated.

356 people out of 375 patients are vaccinated, yet 81 people are still in intensive care with 61 on a ventilator.   WATCH (prompted):

.

What good are the vaccinations if 78% of those occupying the hospital are fully vaccinated?

Keep in mind, this tracks with what we have been saying about sample populations around the world in general.  The percentage of people sick and hospitalized is directly equivalent to the percentage of people vaccinated in the population.  If 50% of the population is vaccinated, 50% of the hospitalized patients will be vaccinated.  The vaccine makes no difference.

Victoria is reflecting this same issue, perhaps worse.  78% of the hospital patients are fully vaccinated, that’s actually a higher percentage than the population vaccinated as a whole. Meaning vaccinated people are arriving at the hospital in greater percentage than they represent in the population.  The vaccine could be making people suffer more severe outcomes.   Watch it again.  These are his own statements.

A remarkable contrast video shows the words the Australian Prime Minister delivered during the United Nations General Assembly, while contrasting the brutality that Morrison’s various police units are unleashing in the streets all around Australia.

The original version of this video is being throttled by Google [SEE HERE].  However, a Rumble Version has been uploaded.  The video used to overlay the speech is actual news footage from the past five days in Australia.

In virtually every large metropolitan area in the country, State Police, Riot Squads and jackboots can be found beating citizens who leave their homes or refuse to show their approved transit papers.   Australians, who attempt to protest the COVID lockdowns and forced vaccinations, are subject to being shot, beaten, arrested and in come cases of female victims, sexually assaulted by police officers.  Australia has descended into totalitarianism, and is now easily the most dystopian state in the former free democratic world.

The Taliban in Afghanistan are mild compared to the police units operating in many cities including Melbourne and Sydney.  Checkpoints are commonplace everywhere, and quarantine camps for the non-compliant have been established.  It is beyond absurd.

Neil Oliver hits the nail on the head again.  I cannot recommend watching this monologue highly enough.  As you have read on these pages, we hold the exact same opinion.

Mr. Oliver takes examples of what is happening in real time, such as Australia, and puts exactly the correct prism in place to consider them.

What Oliver is stating is supported by a basic truth in human nature: ‘Control is a reaction to fear‘.  As a consequence, the need for control is a conscious reaction to something being feared.   Those who live atop society, in politics or positions of affluence, are becoming increasingly fearful.

Recent references are not limited to COVID lockdowns and arbitrary totalitarian rules put into place.  The way the government responded to the “yellow vest” movement in France; or the U.K. government efforts to fight Brexit; or the U.S. government response to Donald Trump’s election; these are all examples of those holding power being fearful of the us – a free people.   The elites are fearful, and they will lose.

.

Those who hold power are fearful. One of the mechanisms they use to manage their need for control is division.  They need vaxxed -vs- unvaxxed. They need left -vs- right. They need identity politics.  They need class war.  They need racism. They need support from Big Tech.  They need to control the media.  They need compartmentalized scrap-grabbers constantly looking down; because if enough people start looking up and seeing through the division, the masses will find unity.

Those who hold tenuous power know the intelligence agencies alone will not be able to protect them from a unified people.   Neil Oliver is 100% correct.

To give you an idea of the elitist mindset within the governing authority of Victoria, Australia, consider this statement by Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton about the vaccine protestors in Melbourne.  If there was ever a case study in what failed stewardship looks like, Brett Sutton would be the poster boy.

Keep in mind, there was ZERO public discussion, ZERO public debate, ZERO public input and ZERO transparency within the state government about what they were planning and concocting behind closed doors.   Additionally, the government did not permit a single person a seat at the table to raise any objection to the forced vaccination protocol, and none of the concerns expressed by a multitude of international vaccinologists or experts who addressed alternatives to the vaccine were permitted to be voiced.

Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton did not permit a single voice in the room to share any other approach to the jab mandate.  Now he declares that any citizens who have valid concerns about efficacy and long-term consequences are “irrational whack jobs.”  WATCH:

.

If you do not agree with the central command authority and the Ministry of COVID Compliance, you are an irrational citizen who needs to be culled from society.   Where have you see that type of outlook and worldview expressed before?  Yes, it is the exact credo of the Fabian Socialist Society.

Chickens coming home to roost?  The state of Queensland, Australia, (QLD) is located in the northeastern portion of the nation above the state of New South Wales. The biggest metropolitan areas are Brisbane to the south and Cairns to the north.  Like many states, and in alignment with the national plan, Queensland is mandating a vaccination upon citizens if they want to escape the rules and regulations of lockdowns and COVID compliance dictates.

Despite some initial signs of moderation, recently Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has fallen into line with the national government plan and has announced she is fully prepared to be just as big a totalitarian dictator as her neighboring Premiers to the west and south.  As a consequence, Premier Palaszczuk has decreed that all Queensland police units must be vaccinated within two weeks or they will lose their jobs.  WATCH:

The citizens of Queensland will take the mRNA immunity modification serum, aka “the jab”, or they will be discarded from society.   There is a relatively small faction of reasonable police who might have a problem with that.  However, if you look at the upcoming new classes of junior officers (pictured below), you’ll get an idea of where their mindset is.
