      I think a pro-freedom political movement is needed which already exists in some of the smaller parties. It would be better to join the smaller pro-freedom parties and make them big rather than try to reform the old LibLabGreen Uniparty.

      We also need to cast off the philosophy of Jeremy Bentham, the major political philosopher of the UK and subsequently Canada, NZ and Australia as he did not believe in natural rights, hence the fundamental weakness of those countries.

      The most influential philosopher of the United States, on the other hand, is John Locke, who did believe in natural rights and whose ideas are written into the Declaration of independence and the US Constitution, including the right to remove a corrupt government (which Locke even considered to be a duty, even greater than a right). Unfortunately after decades of infiltration and rot from the Left, the US is now a shadow of what it could be or should be with Deep State corruption, but I think there is still more hope for the US than the other Anglo democracies.

        Hmmm, you may be right in the idea, but I fear that the small parties are all too random in their ideals and directions, Net result IS zero. ( now where did I get that phrase from?). Indeed the mainstream are all as one, steered by the greenblob. Doesn’t slime make a good lubricant: that’s all the greens are. – look at Scottish politics: no friction to put on the Brakes and the scot natsi party has spent at least, hunnerts o’ thoosans on suspect doobries, let alone wasted so much on public failures ( the Ferries and Trunk road Infrastructure)

    Video:

    Dr John Campbell talks about the anti-viral properties of cannabidiol, especially in relation to covid. Cannabidiol is not psychoactive.

    Does anyone know if it is legally available in Australia?

    If watching the video please try to use the Rumble link instead of YT as punishment for them censoring him.

      I think “CBD Oil” is only available (legally) via prescription in Australia, but maybe it depends on state laws.

        I buy CBD oil full spectrum hemp extract online with no problems here in Australia. Have been doing so for the past few years, a few drops under the tongue at night helps me have a restful sleep.Supposedly good for joint pain relief, but I haven’t found that to be so in my case.

    There is a new book out by Peter Frankopan. He is a Professor of Global History at Oxford University in England. The book is called “The Earth Transformed: An Untold History”. The punchline is – ‘By far the biggest risk to global climate change comes from volcanoes’.

    These UN plonkers and Climate Alarmists have only looked at the World over the last 200 years at best. This Professor has looked at everything as best he can over the last 4 billion years. Top that if you can you Charlatans.

    CO2 is a harmless gas that is ESSENTIAL for life on Earth. Ask the Trees and plants what they think. And then ask the Animals that need to eat something.

          Because the masses are too technically backward to know any better?
          Remember it wasn’t knowledge that drove the Fakevax ™ uptake, it was fear and ignorance.
          People believed what was publicised via the msm, and didn’t deep dive.
          Or the degree and PhD qualified “experts” claiming the vax had self-assembling nano tech?
          Try random contaminant clumping or the sugar that’s added as a cryoprotectant.
          No knowledge of tech needed, just talk bollox.😉

    Their BoM is not alone:

    “Official Warnings
    For some reason the NZ Government now has a tax-funded-double-up with Government Agency Niwa competing head on with Government Agency MetService during severe weather events. No other Government or country on earth does this – and then also severely limits this public data from public access. So it’s very important (critical in fact) for NZ’s news media and the public to note that MetService is the ONLY official weather voice from the NZ Government… it is not Niwa.”

    This was released yesterday by WeatherWatch.co.nz, a private, and far more accurate and realistic, meteorological outfit, the ONLY one to correctly and scientifically, call ex-cyclone Gabrielle what it was when it arrived here on Valentine’s Day: a former, an ex-tropical cyclone – or as FijiMet named it, ‘XTC’ – downgraded 48-hours prior to reaching our shores.

    Meat is crucial for human health, scientists warn

    Close to a thousand experts unite behind statement that rejects ‘zealotry’ of plant-based diets and promotes livestock farming.

    Meat is crucial for human health, scientists have warned, as they called for an end to the “zealotry” pushing vegetarian and vegan diets.

    Dozens of experts were asked to look into the science behind claims that meat eating causes disease and is harmful for the planet in a special issue of Animal Frontiers.

    They warned that it is difficult to replace the nutritional content of meat, arguing that poorer communities with low meat intake often suffer from stunting, wasting and anaemia driven by a lack of vital nutrients and protein.

    In recent years, there has been a widespread societal push towards plant-based diets, with schemes such as Veganuary and meat-free Mondays encouraging the public away from meat.

    In one paper published in the issue, experts found no good evidence to support red meat being dangerous below intakes of 75g per day, and argued that the link between red meat and disease vanished when part of a healthy diet, suggesting it was the rest of the diet that was fuelling health problems.

    Dr Alice Stanton, of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, one of the authors of the review, said: “The peer-reviewed evidence published reaffirms that [the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Risk Factors Report] which claimed that consumption of even tiny amounts of red meat harms health is fatally scientifically flawed.

    “In fact, removing fresh meat and dairy from diets would harm human health. Women, children, the elderly and low income would be particularly negatively impacted.”

      I have never seen a healthy-looking vegan.

      Meat is delicious.

      I would like to become disciplined enough to become a full carnivore one day and eat only meat, fish, eggs and dairy.

      Plants are my food’s food.

    Israrli startup creates world’s first 3D printed fish fillet

    An Israeli food tech startup has produced the world’s first 3D-printed fish filet that can go from printer to plate in minutes.

    The printed fish is based on cultivated cells of grouper fish and was produced by Steakholder Foods, which uses bio-printing and bio-inks to develop meat products.

    Unlike fully-cultivated meat products, which still require incubation and maturation post-printing, the startup’s technology means the fish filet is ready to cook immediately, significantly increasing production speed and reducing costs compared to traditional 3D printing.

    The development comes just months after Steakholder announced a partnership with Umami Meats, the Singaporean cultivated seafood company that supplied the startup with the grouper cells. The first line of the partnership’s products will be launched in Asia.

    The companies are now working to boost the printed fish’s nutritional qualities, increasing the levels of omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids, and macronutrients that consumers expect.

    Not quite scifi replicator technology yet.
    The Israelis are doing some interesting work.

    I got a brochure in my physical mail advertising the following event (SEE below).

    You can bet that rational thinkers will not be allowed to speak or ask questions.

    https://events.humanitix.com/australian-climate-policy-effective-or-greenwashing

    Event description
    The Australian Parliament is currently engaged in finalising and passing a key element of its climate policy, the Safeguard Mechanism. Polly Hemming, Director of the Climate and Energy Program at the Australia Institute is keynote speaker at this forum which will delve into the Safeguard Mechanism, climate integrity, carbon credits and whether this policy can be effective when it comes to the critical work of reducing emissions. Local federal MPs Josh Burns and Dr Michelle Ananda-Rajah will each give an address, and Zoe Daniel will provide an address, likely in the form of a video (Zoe apologises that she is unable to attend in person on the evening due to a clash with another major event, booked prior to this forum). There will be a Q & A with all participants following presentations.

    The evening will be video recorded, with a link supplied after the event.

    The moderator will be Dr. Kylie McIntosh, President of BCCAG

    ..

    This event is organised by a coalition of local volunteer groups:

    BCCAG (Bayside Climate Crisis Action Group) bccag.org.au

    PECAN (Port Phillip Climate Action Network) pecan.org.au

    GECAN (Glen Eira Emergency Climate Action Network) gecan.org.au

    Insect Numbers Are on the Decline – What Is Happening?

    Globally, we are observing not only a decrease in the population of individual insects but also a collapse in insect biodiversity. The primary factors contributing to this alarming trend include increased land use for agricultural and construction purposes, climate change, and the introduction of invasive species due to human trade activities. These key findings were highlighted in a recent special feature on insect decline published in Biology Letters. PD Dr. Florian Menzel, from the Institute of Organismic and Molecular Evolution at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), is one of the three editors of this special feature.

    “As evidence of an on-going global crash in insect populations increased over the last few years, we decided it was time to edit and publish this special issue. Our aim was not to document insect population declines but to better understand their causes and consequences,” said Menzel.

      How do they not know that there were too many insects in the world before and now it is coming to the norm?

      They don’t.

      Secondly. Insects are horrible and cause a lot of damage. Less insects is a good thing.

      This idea people have of “nature being in ‘balance'” is extremely infantile, but widely held. And biodiversity is extremely overrated.

    Mysterious Surge of Activity Detected in The Brains of Dying People

    Scientists from the University of Michigan in the US have detected a surge of activity in the brains of two people as they transitioned into death, with the phenomenon similar to spikes of brain activity seen previously in animals whose hearts had stopped beating.

    Only last year did scientists record for the first time, in gripping detail, the brain waves of a dying person. Under tragic circumstances, they happened to record a spike in one particular type of brain activity, called gamma waves, along with changes at other frequencies.

    This new study reports a similar burst of ephemeral gamma activity, in two of four patients withdrawn from life support.

    Since 2013, neurologist Jimo Borjigin and colleagues have been looking for parallels in the dying human brain to what they found in rats after an induced cardiac arrest. They reasoned that the brief flares of brain activity they saw soaring far above levels of the animals’ waking state may be the biological flickers of near-death experiences reported by many cardiac arrest survivors.

    https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2216268120

    The cells in the optic nerves die and fire at different rates between the outer and inner layers causing the famous “tunnel of light” that people brought back to life report seeing. Nothing spiritual, just biology.
    Probably the same deal here.

    ULEZ Blade Runners: ‘This is What Happens When Democracy is Ignored’

    Dressed in a balaclava to protect his identity, the father in his mid-forties revealed he had stolen 34 Ulez cameras himself but his group and others like them have taken down hundreds.

    He told MailOnline: ‘In terms of damage it’s way more than what [Khan and TfL] have stated. It’s at least a couple of hundred.

    ‘Snipping, damaging with hammers, painting, disabling on a circuit level and removing. They are unbolted and they are snipped. “The tools they use to install them are the ones we use to remove it.” “We don’t want this. It’s a way to try to… restrict our movements” adding “F*** them. It will not happen because we haven’t done anything to deserve it.”

    Hey people, there’s no easy way to say this.

    I haven’t left a comment here at Joanne’s site for three weeks now, and I wasn’t even sure I would come back.

    After a short stay in hospital, my wonderful good lady wife of 42 years sadly passed away.

    I won’t go over it all again here. The owner of my ‘home site’ asked if I would like to write about it there, and after getting approval from her three children I did just that, so you can read it there, even if it does seem odd that I am linking to my own Post there, so sorry for that.

    I have been so busy since then, and yesterday was the first day wholly by myself, so I took the time to write about it. It was a cathartic thing to do.

    And MemoryVault, if you still visit here, we now share a bond, good friend.

    Link to Post – Barbara Lang – Finally At Peace.

      ‘The greatest crime against humanity’

      Likely the most significant event since we stopped hunting and gathering.
      https://www.bitchute.com/video/SSSIUbYBIE1G/

      The Reset, as the plan intended, has created the foundation to end the ‘nation state’ system as organized since 1918.
      We have seen in a short period of time, the internet and tech industry it birthed, transform from a vehicle of freedom of expression, into a powerful tool for thought control.
      Oddly, the primary catalyst for this was a media personality named Donald Trump.
      The most convenient devil since The Devil and CO2.

      Interesting that internet can’t quite yet control wrong thought, however an effective system of ‘official authenticification’ is being constructed.
      All else is ‘misinformation’ and ‘conspiracy theory’.

      A FOIA is needed for weather data.
      Soon we’ll need a FOIA to get our medical records.

      We are already required, by law in many places, to pretend the men are women.
      (Whilst at the same time, pummeled with a ‘Science’ stick.)

      You betcha, now that’s a reset Bono can be proud of.

      Any state that can’t “most times” generate their own power is mendicant IMHO.

      I am not suggesting that cross-border supply is wrong. What is wrong is relying on your transmission lines to remain serviceable 100% of the time. NSW currently has a standing interstate order of 1GW+ during benign weather.

      50 years ago Qld duplicated the HV line from Gladstone into the northern grid because of the risk cyclones posed to the one on the coast, but we had a pro mining premier who wanted the mining revenue to roll in 365 days/y and draglines use a lot of MWatts.

      An extensive analysis / expose on the performance of “renewables” – at WattClarity – is probably beyond the ability of Energy Minister Bowen’s ability to comprehend.
      It also serves to explain how and why our electricity supply grids have gone from sturdy to perilous over such a short time frame.

    Tuesday funny

    A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked,
    “What are those clocks?”
    St. Peter answered, “Those are Lie-Clocks, Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move.”
    “Oh,” said the man. “Whose clock is that?” “That’s Mother Teresa’s. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie”
    “Incredible,” said the man.
    “That’s Abraham Lincoln’s clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life.”
    “Where is Joe Biden’s clock?
    “His Clock is in Jesus’ office. He’s using it as a ceiling fan.

      Thanks a i,
      Much appreciated.

      To others I say:
      Don’t miss this. Neat summary.
      It’s quite a long read, but well worth it.
      Includes cures.

      Cheers

    This week in The Spectator Mike Ryan revived the idea of the citizen-initiated referendum. This is a welcome suggestion and it recalls the memory that in 1987 the Centre For Independent Studies published a very well researched book on the various forms of the citizen’s vote, including the provision for recalling politicians who don’t take any notice of their constituents.”

    We really should make a fuss about this.
    I cannot get any radio talk shows interested.
    The Australian newspaper gets my monthly update but has never mentioned it.

    How about some strength of numbers?
