One Nation on the Vaccine Mandates By James Reed

Here is the latest material opposing the vaccine mandate from One Nation’s Newsletter. If you have not yet joined One Nation, consider doing so, as they are doing good work opposing the Covid tyranny in Australia. I got this via email and don’t have a link, so another reason to join up. Come together, right now!

One Nation’s Stephen Andrew, MP for Mirani

Many people have been calling and emailing Stephen Andrew, MP for Mirani, during the last few days. He says they are “extremely alarmed over a new Bill introduced into Federal Parliament on 1 September 2021”. Stephen explains the bill’s broader powers below:

The Biosecurity Amendment (Enhanced Risk Management) Bill 2021, grants the federal government significant new emergency powers, and one such power is ringing alarm bells across the country.

The provisions causing the most angst are those expanding the State’s power under the Act to impose draconian ‘biosecurity control orders’ over people.

Currently, this power is limited to “individuals”. The new Bill expands this power to include whole groups or “class of individuals” as well.

Under the current Act, the power to impose Biosecurity Control Orders give the government almost unlimited powers to restrict people’s movement, mandate medical tests, examinations and the taking of “samples”, as well as “medical treatments” such as vaccination.

While the notion of ‘consent’ is retained under the Act, failure to comply means individuals, and now groups, can be “detained” for as long as “necessary”.

They can also be charged with offences punishable by up to 15 years in prison, under the new Bill.
These are draconian and coercive powers, and Australians are right to be concerned at any expansion of them.

However, after reading through the Bill carefully, it appears that the new powers DON’T apply to ‘groups’ or ‘classes of individuals’ WITHIN the general population.

Under Clause 4 of the Bill, Section 3 of the Act is amended as follows:

“Methods of managing risk to human health include imposing a human biosecurity control order on an individual, and making a human biosecurity group direction for a class of individuals, who have, or have been exposed to, a listed human disease”.

The critical issue here is what is the Bill’s definition of “class of individuals”.

According to the Bill a “human biosecurity group direction means a direction made under section 108B”.

Clause 108B reads:
(2) “Class of individuals must be all the individuals, or a group of individuals, who:
(a) Are on board an aircraft or a vessel that is in Australian territory; or
(b) The officer is satisfied are at a landing place or port in Australian territory, or at a place that is in close proximity to a landing place or port in Australian territory, where an aircraft or vessel has arrived at the landing place or port”.

The newly created powers therefore only apply to those ‘groups’ and ‘classes’ of people travelling to and from Australia, either by plane or ship, that is a ‘vessel’.

Having said that, even if it isn’t the one-way trip to an internment camp that some Australians are concerned about, this Bill is still a worrying glimpse into the mindset of our leaders.”

That being said, we should keep an eye on it, and other tricks that are no doubt coming down the parliamentary sewer pipeline.
