    Fuck I’m sick of these freaks who have been impowered by this gender bullshit. This is the natural consequence of SSM; it all flows from that legitimisation. So every weirdo with a mental illness now claims normality and appropriates the middle ground and claims legitimacy while attacking normal/cis (WTF) people.

    There is nothing more strident, aggressive and irrational as a fat arsed young white bitch with a sense of moral entitlement. When the BLM and leftie riots were full on in the US, fat arsed young  white women were at the fore-front of the young dead-heads leading the charge. And they’re such cowards. They do this because they know they’ll get away with it and there’ll be no consequences to them because our legal system and our pollies have been emasculated. It’ll stay that way until a few lost teeth, black eyes and kicks up those fat arses and some jail time occurs.

    Queen Elizabeth told to ‘stop drinking’ by royal doctors

    《 Royal doctors have reportedly advised the Queen to “stop drinking” amid preparations for her platinum Jubilee in June 2022. 》

    Now we know why she said this.

    《 The Queen is annoyed that planet-polluting leaders may skip a UN climate summit.

    Her Majesty will attend the COP26 in Glasgow with Princes Charles and William, who says son George worries about litter. 》

    I thought it was the influence of her woke son, grandson and great grandson causing her to turn into a climate action advocate.

    It is the drink after all. She’s been having too much. 🙂

    If (and it’s a big if – we’re talking the MSM here) Madge has a bit of a liking for a drink, she is following in the footsteps of her mother. The Queen Mum (who lived to be 101) was notoriously fond of a G&T or three.

    The women in that family are the only ones worth feeding. Anne would have been an excellent Queen, but instead we get the jug-eared tampon.

    Peter Ridd’s article in the australian:

     

    “The ruling raised two major weaknesses that exist in university work agreements. The first is the power of confidentiality (secrecy) provisions to silence academics for talking about unlawful actions by their university that curtail academic freedom. I know other examples where an academic, right now, is having their academic freedom curtailed but they cannot openly mention it for fear their university can lawfully fire them.

    Secrecy, together with spying on communications, is an incredibly powerful tool in the hands of any authoritarian organisation, whether it be the Stasi or an Australian university. It silences dissent, isolates the victim and establishes where the power lies – with the university. The academic is crushed.

    The other issue is that the High Court ruled that only topics inside an academic’s “area of academic competence” are covered by academic freedom. This may seem reasonable at first, but in my case this meant I was not allowed to say: “In my view our whole university system pretends to value free debate, but in fact it crushes it whenever the ‘wrong’ ideas are spoken. They are truly an (sic) Orwellian in nature.”

    I wonder what area of expertise an academic would need to make a comment like that. Irrespective of the strict legalities of the matter, perhaps all academics should have a right to say this. I can picture Orwell smiling, especially as James Cook University found this comment by trawling through all my emails.

    The new voluntary code of conduct for academic freedom, and the new legislation on academic freedom introduced by Education Minister Alan Tudge this year, although excellent in many regards, will not solve the problems revealed in this case. Both will need to be amended to have any prospect of being effective.

    Before the minister might act, more fundamental problems must be answered. Is the culture of universities so rotten that it is impossible to do anything useful to reform them? Are true academic advances nowadays coming from outside the university anyway? Is university-funded research and commentary doing more harm than good?

    I think it is still worth trying to reform the universities. If nothing else, the high-profile cases of misbehaving universities, around the world, have shown the public cares about these issues. It affects academics from across the political spectrum. In my case we had the Institute of Public Affairs and the National Tertiary Education Union on the same team. For that to happen, universities must be doing something spectacularly wrong. Politicians can take comfort from such alliances. It is safe to act boldly.

    The dust needs to settle, and cool legal heads must turn their attention to what can be done in legislation to further protect academics. Academics must know they are well away from the cliff edge and will be protected. Satisfactory protection should be explicitly written in work agreements. We also need active policing of transgressions, and penalties against universities. The penalties must hurt. With a few notable exceptions, universities presently only pay lip-service to academic freedom.

    One possibility is that university councillors, who are equivalent to the board of directors of companies, should be held personally responsible for freedom of speech transgressions. Company directors have all sorts of legal obligations that largely keep them honest. University councillors need to feel the heat.

    A final question must be raised about my case. Why did JCU act so aggressively to silence me for saying there were quality assurance problems with Great Barrier Reef science institutions? This was a legal battle over a work contract, but its root cause was a debate about the reliability of science.

    Maybe JCU’s extreme reaction was because I was saying something true.

    The reef seems to agree – the latest statistics show that all three regions of the reef have never had more coral since records began. This despite three supposedly devastating, unprecedented, bleaching events in the past five years. Somebody must have been exaggerating. Maybe there is the odd “untrustworthy” institution doing political activism rather than science.

    So let’s not forget that academic freedom matters. The debate about the reef affects every major industry in north Queensland. Farmers are being wrongfully blamed. They feel the financial pain of pointless legislation, but also the emotional pain of being accused of destroying the reef. There must be a free and open debate. It must not be constrained by confidentiality (secrecy) provisions, and intimidation or harassment by institutions. Otherwise we damage any prospect of getting close to the truth.

    Counting to 4 or 5 in schoolgirl French is blog building? Spare me. I don’t click on Kaysee’s links. Ever.

    Free speech is free speech. You either have it or you don’t.

    If you don’t like what someone says, then scroll and move on. You, like Lizzie, are not the arbiter of what can or should be said by commenters.

    ======================================

    You are right about free speech, but you are wrong about the venue you try your ‘free’ speech on.

    I think a soap box in Hyde Park is still a go, or your own home or in a public place, (not so sure about that either any more), But not on someone else’s blog which is their virtual home.

    I’m sure you yourself would chuck out a visitor who, using his free speech right, would carry on like a lunatic in your house.

    This is what Grahame does, the fact that he gets away with it only shows that the blog owner has some sympathy to his views, being a libertarian does not cut it in my view.

    There are limits even in libertarian and anarchist societies.

    His blog, his rules, but not be surprised when the audience disappears, as it had.

     

    There are a million other social sites we can visit, he only has this one blog, and by the looks of it he does not care if it survives or not.

    Well, I wish him well and good luck to him in his enterprise.

    It’s worse than that, kaysee- Before he went on holiday, Pete Buttigeig organised a deal between California’s EPA and his Department of Transportation that bans trucks over a certain build-age from ebtering the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, on the grounds that the old trucks are too smelly and polluty.

     

    In effect, better than half the vehicles that used to serve these two ports (the biggest freight-handlers in the USA) can no longer move containers ij or out. And even making the ports run 24/7 to load and unload ships, as the stooges are proposing, won’t fix the problem- You just run out of container space at port.

     

    Furthermore, if disproportionately impacts medium and small trucking businesses.

    The Green Pass poses a problem but at least the Senate vote had a clear majority against the vaxx. So, it is possible that the pollies there might do something to scrap the Green Pass.

    As for our nice Scotty, he has no backbone to stand up for any issue. Flip flop and hope the problem goes away.
