To The Australian Comments critical of Brexit by surgeons planning to leave the UK ("Workers' exodus signals end of a European dream", 4/12) illuminate one aspect of the tragedy involved in constitutional change: a clash of mutually incompatible idealistic dreams. Paolo Mueisan is "disappointed that the European dream of working and living in a borderless world has failed." Oncologist Alfredo Addeo says that a UK within the EU was for him "the prototype of multiculturalism and integration." Neither man shows any awareness of the historical fact that the British were incorporated into the EU by political dishonesty and trickery, notably that of Conservative prime minister Edward Heath. Nor do the two express any sympathy for the alternative dream held by the 52% who voted for Leave in 2016: resumption of an independent and free Britain and escape from a noxious bureaucratic tyranny. There is a lesson here for Australians: idealistic-sounding constitutional changes proposed for us by powerful lobby groups (the republic, constitutional recognition) may contain great disadvantages that would threaten our own traditional "Australian dream." We can learn from the UK experience not to be beguiled.

If you go to sites referenced by us such as Pamela Geller or by Robert Spencer, even more to the Left, such as Zero Hedge and Natural News, you may begin to notice a pattern in the gothic new stories. Your mind, operating in Sherlock Holmes fashion, may begin to join up the dots to form a pattern. But, the Deepers in our home state of Victoria have saved us the trouble, and have found that the real threats to national security are … you guessed it … people who are “fixated” on an ideology, writing letters and the like, mainly right wing types.
http://www.theunshackled.net/rundown/victorias-fixated-persons-centre-to-target-right-wing-extremism/?fbclid=IwAR2okejNwZxFDsdfC8BmSZiKdTChN4grK4tZwauEAlLGs6L146cNWzDGVZk
“Yesterday the Victorian Andrews Labor Government unveiled a new Victoria Police unit, the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre which it claims is aimed at protecting Victorians from terrorism and lone actor attacks. It will be staffed by 13 specialist police officers and aims to process 300 people in its first year. It is based on similar centres that have opened up New South Wales, Queensland, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. However a closer look at which types of people the centre aims to target reveals it has a disturbing political agenda. Assistant Police Commissioner Ross Guenther defined fixated persons as those who repeatedly write letters, email or call local councillors or politicians and those who display a fixation with an ideology or religion.
Ha! This was behind a paywall, but one kind reader who supports the cause had a chook raffle raising the money for me to look at articles from The Australian, just like a real journalist, dripping with resources. Articles like this one:
https://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/immigration/most-australians-wanted-migrant-intake-frozen-24-years-ago/news-story/9f65e547a7d435fee5310a159c70a90b?fbclid=IwAR14VfahTm1C2XaScCo42zLmM-8oWHMIUbY4CvP5yfs68xX1ZaNmqBsbCdk&login=1
“Liberal senator Dean Smith says Australians have not been listened to on population policy ¬development over the past two decades. Demands from a majority of Australians to put the brakes on immig¬ration levels in 1994 were ignore¬d by political leaders, who oversaw a 30 per cent blowout in population growth. Liberal senator Dean Smith is using figures from a 24-year-old parliamentary committee report to argue Australians have not been listened to on population policy ¬development over the past two decades. The West Australian senator, who led the campaign last year to legalise same-sex marriage, called for the re-establishment of the now abolished long-term strategies committee and for a popu¬lation inquiry to be prioritised. Senator Smith’s proposal came as cabinet minister Christopher Pyne argued that Australia did not have a “too-high population”, despite Scott Morrison confirming there would be a reduction in the cap of the permanent migration intake.
To The Age Your editorial "Indigenous voice needs to be heard" (4/12) fails to convince that such a "voice" should be constitutionally entrenched. The interests of all Australians need to be fairly considered before any change is made to our constitution. In particular, terminology needs to be carefully deployed. "Traditional ownership" and "indigenous" are terms needing inspection. The idea that a tiny group of Australians who self-identify as "indigenous" (when most of them are of mixed ethnic heritage) should be considered the "owners" of the whole land of Australia is a romantic fantasy. Nor does "the unique status of" our "indigenous people" mean that that tiny group should be privileged over the rest of us. This is so, regardless of any "wrongs of the past". No Australian living today is guilty of those wrongs. You brush away too easily the justified fear that the proposed voice would "fan divisions" and function as a "third chamber of Parliament." On the contrary, it is obvious that the proposal is really intended as a first step on the path to setting up a second nation on this continent. That is much more than a mere "symbolic gesture."

For decades now, working people, tax payers and retirees have been battered by the Green elites who shelter in well-paid tax havens like the UN and Greenpeace. These Green elites have been supported by fellow travellers like the Clintons, Obama and Hollywood in America; Merkel in Germany; David Cameron, Prince Charles, David Attenborough and the BBC in UK; Macron in France; Gillard, Turnbull, Flannery and the ABC in Australia; the Trudeau dynasty in Canada; plus ranks of pious clerics, scheming oil sheiks, green energy speculators and guilt-stricken big business executives.
This powerful elite has waged ceaseless war on the coal and nuclear power that provides cheap reliable electricity, on the farmers and fishermen who provide food, and on those who refine and manufacture things. They tax the diesel vehicles that provide transport and recreation for ordinary people and fill their suburbs and welfare rolls with imported “refugees”. They have captured their schools and universities that now provide more indoctrination than education. Green dogma infests the government media that people used to trust and is destroying the industries that once gave them well-paid jobs. But Jack & Jill Public are starting to fight back.
I did not know about this one, but along with the much-criticised UN Migration pact, there is also a UN Refugee Pact, set to be signed in Morocco on December 10-11. This one will extend the scope of a “refugee,” which is already elastic enough now to encompass basically any non-white wanting to come to the West to better themselves, as shown by the present Us caravan fiasco, to now embrace environmental and climate change “refugees.” This, will mean all non-Western people would have a right to enter Western countries, therefore demographically displacing them over night. Thus, the immigration elites of the EU hypothesise that, for example, Germany has a capacity for refugee absorption of 274 million, and Sweden 440 million:

Sure, vaccines are good for you, and only crazed right wing fringe dwellers would think otherwise. Why, just ask the Chinese:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-08-17-chinas-vaccine-scandal-explodes-as-one-million-doses-now-found-to-be-maiming-chinese-children.html
“The Chinese government has admitted that hundreds of thousands more doses of children’s vaccines are faulty, bringing the total number of vaccines known to be defective there to nearly one million. The State Council of China announced that another batch of vaccines for diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus (DPT) that were produced by the firm Changchun Changsheng Biotechnology, were considered “substandard.” Most of the doses were sold to authorities in the Shandong province in northeastern China, and some have already been given to children. The latest batch of 247,200 vaccines joins the 253,338 defective DPT vaccines from the same company that were discovered last November, along with more than 400,000 produced by a different company. According to the South China Morning Post, 76 percent of those children who were given injections from the first substandard batch have already been treated by doctors, and there are now plans in place to treat those who received injections from the second batch. Although the Chinese government has done its best to prevent people from talking about the crisis, Chinese social media is still full of conversation about the topic. There have also been reports that the company used expired ingredients and altered testing records.’
Immigration to formerly white countries by everybody in the multiverse, is a “human right,’ or is it now, “cosmic universe right.” But, what is not a human right? Murder? Suicide? Gasp! Maybe these are according to our overlords, the rightly negation named, UN:
https://www.dailysignal.com/2018/11/15/un-committee-wants-to-make-abortion-and-assisted-suicide-a-universal-human-right/
“The United Nations Human Rights Committee drafted a memo saying that abortion and physician-assisted suicide should be universal human rights. The memo, or “general comment” on the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, calls for abortion to be decriminalized everywhere. Nations and states should “not introduce new barriers and should remove existing barriers [to abortion] … including barriers caused as a result of the exercise of conscientious objection by individual medical providers,” it said. The committee that put forward the draft is headed by former Chilean President Michelle Bachelet, according to Crux. Aborting an unborn baby was illegal in Chile until August 2017 when the nation’s lawmakers ruled to decriminalize abortion in the cases of rape, fatal fetal abnormalities, and when the mother’s life is in danger. Young people should have access to contraception as well as guaranteed access to post-abortion health care “in all circumstances, and on a confidential basis,” the draft also said, Crux reported. Stigma against abortion should also be discouraged, the draft noted. The U.N. Human Rights Committee successfully ordered the Irish government to pay Siobhan Whelan roughly $34,000 and provide her with psychological treatment in November 2017 to compensate for Whelan’s travel expenses in order to obtain an abortion. Whelan had traveled from Ireland, where abortion was illegal at the time, to the U.K. for the procedure. Whelan was the second woman compensated post-abortion on orders from the U.N.”
Well, I believe that James Reed’s new found love for China may have take a beating when he considers the latest news:
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-27/china-ambassador-warns-dire-consequences-if-no-deal-hints-all-out-war
“According to China's ambassador to the US, Cui Tiankai, China is going to this week’s G-20 summit hoping for a deal to ease a damaging trade war with the United States, even as he warned of "dire consequences" if U.S. hardliners - read the trade hawks led by Peter Navarro - try to separate the world’s two largest economies. Asked whether he though hardliners in the White House were seeking to separate the closely linked U.S. and Chinese economies, Cui said he did not think it was possible or helpful to do so, but warned that "I don’t know if people really realize the possible consequences - the impact, the negative impact - if there is such a decoupling." He followed up the surprisingly strong statement with an even more shocking comment, in which Tiankai went so far as to tacitly hint that the "lessons of history" suggest that if there is no deal, what comes next could be another great depression... and conventional war. "The lessons of history are still there. In the last century, we had two world wars, And in between them, the Great Depression. I don’t think anybody should really try to have a repetition of history. These things should never happen again, so people have to act in a responsible way.”
I did get the memo, stating that our side of politics sees the Enlightenment as overall good, and that the rise of science, rationality and cold hard technology, constitute real human advancement. But, could the situation be more complex, comprising shades of grey, but maybe not fifty such shades? Could the matter be like modern medicine, which as benefits, but also costs?

This does not exactly nail the “out of Africa” ideology, but is does sink the East Africa is the cradle of civilisation myth, and that is welcome:

“Archaeologists in Algeria have discovered stone tools and cut animal bones that may be up to 2.4 million years old, bringing into question East Africa’s title as the cradle of humanity, according to research published Thursday in the journal Science. The artifacts — more ancient than those discovered in the region until now — were found in Setif, some 200 miles (300 kilometres) east of Algiers, by a team of international researchers, including Algerians. The tools closely resemble those called Oldowan, found until now mainly in East Africa. The tools were unearthed near dozens of fossilised animal bones which contained cut marks, as if relics of prehistoric butchers. The bones came from animals including the ancestors of crocodiles, elephants and hippopotamuses.

“Students at an Oxford college has voted against flying the Union Flag on the Queen's birthday because it is a 'symbol of colonialism'. The decision was made by 21 votes to six at a meeting of the Junior Common Room of Somerville College – whose alumni include Margaret Thatcher – last Sunday. The motion that was rejected also called for the flag to be flown on Remembrance Sunday and on the birthdays of other senior Royals, and for the Home Nation flags to flown on patron saints' days. According to the JCR minutes, one objector said: 'The Union Jack is not a unifying flag as many soldiers were forced to go into the war and it is also a symbol of colonialism.”
While it seems that Australia will not be signing the UN Migration Pact, James Reed has raised the issue about whether there is a backdoor that has been created with the Un Refugee Pact, which is running parallel with the Migration Pact. Is this a UN/globalist strategy to get the Refugee Pact in, which is even more of a threat than the Migration one? I surmise that Australia is not signing the Refugee pact as well, but at this point I don’t know for sure. As time is running out, I hope everyone will contact Pauline Hanson, Fraser Anning, and their local MP to get an answer. Andrew Bolt might be worth sending an email to, as he has a fine skill of getting to the bottom of things. The UN Migration Pact is set to deliver 60 million Third world people to Europe over the next few years, as part of an ethnoracial, ethnomasochistic, demographic replacement program, even though they all could be helped in their homelands.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUMR6B8PbYI
As expected, hate speech laws will be tightened to criminalise any criticism of this replacement program, which just gives the game away. An article from the mainstream media, The Sunday Express, has the headline, “PC Gone Mad: Criticising Migration could Become Criminal Offence Under New Plan”:
It is a sad fact very few people have any comprehension of how our "money supply" is created. Nor, its importance to a functioning National economy and the power exerted by those who control its flow into our economy. The objective of this brief paper is to try and convey those three criteria; How our money is created; its rate of distribution; and the control exerted by the private Reserve Banking system.
In terms of simplicity, an internal combustion engine, together with its fuel supply, is an excellent illustration of how money functions in an economy ... Let us accept we possess an engine and we have some fuel. Providing we supply fuel in the correct air /fuel ratio the engine will run, thus performing our desired task. By increasing or decreasing the rate of flow of fuel/air we control the work performed, {the speed} of our engine; or, indeed, we stop the engine by turning off the flow of fuel.
Do you like drinking lead? It is not a silly question, because the ancient Romans drank wine from lead containers, and look what happened to them. Anyway, we Aussies have a similar problem:
https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/households-advised-to-run-taps-for-30-seconds-amid-lead-poisoning-fears/news-story/07a466ecba85195259ec7e3ce7259411
“Australian households have been officially advised to run their taps for at least 30 seconds in the morning amid fears of lead poisoning from plumbing products. The alert was issued in July by enHealth — a standing committee representing federal, state and territory health departments, the National Health and Medical Research Council and the New Zealand Ministry of Health — but not widely publicised. While lead is rarely used in water pipes in Australia, it is still widely used in a “range of plumbing products” such as brass fittings. It can dissolve into drinking water “particularly where water has been sitting in contact with these brass plumbing products for long periods”. Lead exposure can cause a wide range of symptoms ranging from muscle pains, fatigue, abdominal pains, headache, nausea and vomiting to seizures and coma. Infants and children are especially vulnerable as lead can impair brain development.”
PM Morrison should make no new commitments at the COP24 climate-fest starting next week in Poland. We do not trust what politicians and officials are doing behind closed doors far from home. Nothing of benefit to Australian consumers, tax payers or business will come out of COP24. It will just extend the UN’s war on our cheap, reliable hydro-carbon fuels and the backbone industries that rely on them – primary industries, transport, processing and manufacturing. Australia is particularly vulnerable with no nuclear power, no geothermal power and limited hydropower. This war on reliable hydro-carbon fuels and the promotion of unreliable wind and solar power will increasingly deny our industries and consumers cheap reliable power. There is no justification for the War on carbon dioxide – there is no proof that CO2 drives global temperature and it is a delusion to believe that Earth’s climate can be tweaked by erecting windmills or putting taxes on carbon dioxide. COP24 will descend into a grab for cash, and Australia is one of the fat pullets they plan to pluck.
“Believing carbon dioxide is the planet’s climate control knob is pretty close to believing in magic.”

Here we go again. At least this time, as I write this, I am only 53 minutes behind the mainstream press in reporting. I am disappointed that Vlad the Lad Putin did not ring me up first to ask advice about the wisdom of opening fire on the Ukrainian vessels in the Black Sea, but, no doubt he has his reasons:
https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2018-11-25/ukrainian-navy-tugboat-rammed-by-russian-ship-near-crimea
“Russia's coast guard opened fire on and seized three of Ukraine's vessels Sunday, wounding two crew members, after a tense standoff in the Black Sea near the Crimean Peninsula, the Ukrainian navy said. Russia blamed Ukraine for provoking the incident, which sharply escalated tensions that have been growing between the two countries since Moscow annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014, and it has worked steadily to bolster its zone of control around the peninsula. Earlier in the day, Russia and Ukraine traded accusations over a separate incident involving the same vessels, prompting Moscow to block passage through the narrow Kerch Strait, which separates the peninsula from the Russian mainland. The Ukrainian navy said two of its gunboats were struck and Russian crews boarded and seized them and an accompanying tugboat. Russia's Federal Security Service, known as the FSB and which oversees the coast guard, said there was "irrefutable evidence that Kiev prepared and orchestrated provocations ... in the Black Sea. These materials will soon be made public."
When I first saw this article I thought it was the typical academic wanting to ban more things. But, this story has a wicked twist, as Professor Amy Waxx wants to ban the banners, in a delightful way:

“Here are her ideas, implemented as guidelines in her seminars and upper-level classes, lightly edited for clarity: No one can be heard to say, ‘I’m offended.’ They all have permission to be offended. But they just can’t express it. No one is allowed to accuse anyone else, in the classroom or out, dead or alive, of being racist, sexist, xenophobic, white supremist, or any other derisive, identity-based label. No slurs or name-calling. These don’t enlighten, educate, or edify. They add nothing. Give us an argument. Tell us why the other person is wrong. No one can complain to administrators—those officious thought police—about anything said in class. Finally, both the government and private donors need to rethink the lavish financial support for higher education, and especially for elite and selective institutions, which serve only a teeny-tiny portion of our population and which in many ways, I’m afraid, have become an anti-Western and anti-American liability. How can we get the rich to see that supporting elite universities today might not be the wisest and more fruitful uses of their hard-earned money? What we need is a list of alternative causes and alternative institutions and goals for their money that help ordinary, average, unspecial people who have been unduly neglected by our elites and our increasingly walled off from them.”
Although nationalist types like us are concerned about Chinese imperialism, really the fault lies with our local traitors and not the Chinese. I do not have any hatred for China, but rather shame and disgust about the corruption and weakness of “our” politicians. The same with immigration. Hating migrants is insane; it is the local politicians and Deep State machinery that should be despised. As Cicero famously said (well, not exactly from Cicero himself, but from an interpretation made by Taylor Caldwell in his book, A Pillar of Iron (1965)): “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But, the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.” I am sure that Cicero would have agreed, even if he did not say it. Call it the pseudo-cicero quote.
If the roles were reversed and I was in the position of the Chinese or the migrants, I would do exactly the same. It is just human nature, contrary to the lies of liberalism. So, that is the clear difference between us and some other groups, for we reject scapegoating the “Other” and see the real problem with our own Judases, the elites who rule us, and sell us off. That said, there is much to be said about the greatness of China, a greatness we had but have lost because of cultural Marxism and degenerate Leftism. China seems to have survived and thrived despite the Marxist virus, and not degenerated to the level of politically correct diversity-decline. Feminism and the destruction of manhood is being held at bay, although the decadent forces from the West are at work to destroy what remains of noble Chinese manhood:
