Industry backs calls for renewables to lead Australia back to prosperity 

A renewables-led economic recovery will create almost three times as many jobs as a fossi fuel-led recovery, according to a report by economic consultancy Ernst and Young.

 

Vaccine experts say basic research in Australia is ‘horribly underfunded’ and that needs to change 

A leader at one of Australia's most-promising COVID-19 vaccine project says basic research is "horribly underfunded".

Tony Abbott AC claims it's his legacy that helped us fight Covid-19. Tony Abbott who kicked off the acceleration of the LNP government's spending attributes his budget cuts to scientific research the NBN the ABC hospitals and education is what saved us from the virus. 



 

History will be kind': Abbott says cuts paved way for COVID-19 response

In accepting the nation’s top civilian honour in the Queen's Birthday Honours list, former Prime Minister Tony Abbott has praised his government’s tough budget savings for helping to prepare Australia for the coronavirus crisis

Tony Abbott keeps taking credit for himself in a very Trumpster way.

In reality, the Abbott LNP government would have seen Australia tank during the GFC. Rather than stimulating the economy and keeping us at the top of the rest of the world he would have reduced and cut welfare spending but cut taxes and increased it with flags and military monuments. Where Wayne Swan was voted the world's best treasurer Joe Hockey and Abbott were notably the world's worst. We watched our economy slide as soon as they took control from 2nd to 13th with notably the worst Broadband system in the modern world 69 other countries ahead of us.

 Tony Abbott's government was a standout for doing nothing almost breaking the record for the rate of least Bills passed compared with Gillard's record rate and doing it with a minority government. It only highlighted the difference in negotiation ability and style of the two as leaders.

"Mr Abbott restored knights and dames to the honours list in 2014 and faced a party room revolt for knighting Prince Philip. These honours were scrapped two months after he was replaced by Malcolm Turnbull in September 2015."

As for racism, Abbott didn't deny it was but not as bad as Trump was the best he could do

 "I’m inherently sceptical of copycat protests. While I don’t claim that everything is perfect in Australia, I think we’re quite different and somewhat better than the United States," he said."

FAKE NEWS

POLICE RUN AWAY. A CIVILISATION CRUMBLES

In the US, celebrities and protesters call for police to be abolished. In Britain, the ultimate symbol of civilisation crumbling: police run away from a mob that controls the streets, with few politicians daring to defy them. Watch and weep for the crumbling of West.

Western Civilisation is crumbling and we saw that reality fully documented on video news for us all of us to see across America. The police in America were fully weaponised more so than the Chinese in Hong Kong. Even Australia's defence force seemed ill-equipped in comparison. We saw them using teargas, stun grenades, rubber bullets in full armour bearing down on and dispersing a yes largely peaceful crowd to make way for a President's photoshoot. Who after publicly announced to the world that it never happened. With the Goebellian chorus of the Murdoch  Press doing it's best to spin the tale of Authoritarian force witnessed the other way. The epicentre of the world's uprisings was the USA, not the UK. Andrew Bolt the UK isn't America the country our Australian government aspires model itself on and be like. It's no longer Abbott's Knights and Dames UK.

"LARGELY PEACEFUL"? WHEN 27 POLICE HURT?

BBC propaganda smashes into hard facts: "27 police officers injured during largely peaceful anti-racism protests in London." What is the BBC's definition of "largely peaceful"?

Bolt has preferred to draw our attention away from the US to the sideshow that's the UK and today the least like us. Largely because the US history parallels ours for its Colonial brutality, the slaughter of its indigenous peoples and a nation built on slavery. Ours black Irish imprisoned or indentured. America's on outright slavery.  The Civil War was meant to be a war of liberation but it failed and for 400++ years black Americans have remained racially excluded from most of it's institutions other than its jails. 

Bolt's attention on the UK is a must as the brutality of the police in America has been far too clearly evidenced on our TV screens. He can't even begin to turn his attention to Australia as the violence he's looking for didn't happen other than what he calls ill-mannered language and shouting. So here he is turning to the UK where less attention has been given by the world press so he feels comfortable not to be called a liar.

BARBARIANS MARCH AGAINST OUR POLICE

COLUMN The mobs in Sydney and Melbourne on Saturday screaming “f--- the police” proved they were moronic, vicious and dangerous. Oh, and they lie. Their “anti-racism” cause is based on falsehoods, from the "stolen generations' myth to the lie that our police murder Aborigines in custody.

Barbarians don't use "polite language" Bolt's a self-professed example of a civilised man. Barbarians get angry scream and shout metaphors to express themselves "we can't fucking breathe" "get your foot off our throats cunt"  Barbarians call arsehole elites like Andrew Bolt corporate propagandists who fear Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity. There is no such thing as righteous anger in the face of a mythical history where they claim "all lives matter" which social reality has proven to be a lie. There is no reason that one need to approach an inglorious colonial past with a considered, polite and mannered debate.
What Bolt doesn't tell us is that Minneapolis, LA, and NY anywhere police have been removed or have Soft Presence violence has stopped yet he demands a stronger policing presence. He is encouraging violence. Trump is now bragging that he is in control of DC because since taking the National guard out and backed off hardcore policing the violence has stopped but the demonstrations haven't. The 11-minute video above shows a non-violent demonstration in Brooklyn because police methods were instructed to change. Trump being Trump claims it was due to him. Whereas he denies any violence was and refuses to accept any accountability and mismanagement in guaranteeing it's happening with his strong-armed authoritarian approach so admired by the "I'm against violence" corporate bullshit he puts out for fast diminishing subscriptions.

 

POLICE MUST DOUBT, NOT BELIEVE

COLUMN A memo to NSW police confirms we’re living in a new Tyranny of Feelings where the worst sin is to offend. It warns police against saying “alleged” and “possible” when recording claims made by, er, alleged victims of sex abuse. He wants police to seem more supportive, but haven't we just seen the injustice that can come from such a MeToo approach?

The police didn't just say that George Pell said every accusation of sexual molestation must, yes must be believed. Pell's reason the history of the church and his past was the very opposite that every accusation needed to be denied at all costs. Pell now claims the church needs to be more supportive but we have grave doubts the tiger changed it's stripes. 

Yet Bolt believes that and denies Pell the man he claims to support new point of view. Bolt for one prefers the pendulum remain where it was. Accusers are liars unless the elite and have the power to convince otherwise. Bolt with corporate privilege and a corporate supported voice prefers might to always be right but from behind a safe curtain of police who obey the orders of the authorities.
