Come the next election in each and every jurisdiction which experienced COVID tyranny, we know exactly what you were up to.  And now you will pay.  For this ballot-box justice to prevail, alas, we need far fewer low-information voters than we seem to have at present

The masked-up and muzzled Left, the lock-downed and cattle-tagged Left, the obedience-trained and QR-coded Left has been on the wrong side of the greatest public policy disaster for generations and, because of this, one can only hope political oblivion beckons. Meanwhile, conservatives proclaim for freedom in language their foes would once have used

COVID vaccines' have failed to achieve what was so lavishly promised in the pandemic's early days, when public health officials and others encouraged the mass media to depict inoculations as the silver bullets that would tame and defeat the virus. It hasn't quite worked out as billed. Robert Clancy, a leading Australian immunologist, explains how and why

There are plenty of good options at the ballot box for South Australians who want an end to two years of the COVID baloney.  Bipartisan orthodoxy will still win overall, of that there is little doubt, but for a return to sanity, economic health and the old Australia we all liked so much, a seat or two in the upper house for the anti-restriction/mandate parties couldn't do much harm

We have been controlled, censored and misled by authoritarian 'experts' and political handlers bent on enforcing an ineffective -- indeed, disastrous -- response to a virus currently displaying a naturally declining virulence. This can never be admitted or regretted as that would bare incompetence and official stupidity as the guiding lights of the pandemic's public health excesses

Well here we are, two years into that 'two weeks to flatten the curve' and the fear factor still being turned up to 11 by politicians and health bureaucrats who can neither repudiate their earlier hysterics, for that would imply they aren't experts at all, or who genuinely believe pizza boxes and footballs are mortal threats. Suitable cases for analysis and treatment one and all

The vaccines and their boosters are, like 'the science', never to be questioned, especially by those who have noticed the triple-vaxxed (and soon, no doubt, the quadruple-vaxxed) continue to feature in death and hospitalisation statistics. Political capital, reputations and, yes, money are on the line, so reasonable doubts are dismissed, rather than discussed, as 'COVID misinformation'

Emerson observed that ‘a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds’ and few moments in recent history better demonstrate that wisdom than the response to COVID. Time and again, amid threats, penalties and hollow assurances, the refusal of the governing class to abandon failed approaches has presented intransigence as enlightened public policy

Evil is often perpetrated by governments under the guise of ‘safety’ and ‘public health’, as the Nazi years in Germany serve to remind those prepared to recognise history's lessons. True, no one is equating Premier Mark McGowan with Hitler, just their manipulations to keep the populace scared and its anger directed at officially designated villians. In WA's case, that is the rest of the country
