Australian Prime Minister does it again!!
Prime Minister Julia Gillard- Australia: Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.. Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT.. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. ' 'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom' 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society .... Learn the language!' 'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.' 'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.' 'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.' 'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.' Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in UK , SA, Canada & USA, WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths. -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |

'Most Australians believe in God.
True, but over 30% categorised themselves as having "No religion" in the recent census. Even more so amongst the young. Yet, the PM is saying it's fair to inflict religion on that very sizeable minority. |

Dont need a study for that. Locked down too late, stupidly sent people to care homes without checking if they were infected first, no ban on foreigners entering the country, no forced quarantine of those entering the country until vastly too late, not enforcing the ban on non essential travel within the country, inadequate PPE initially. For me, the test and trace showed most promise in tackling the issue. But is difficult to do well and its not enough to just tell those who turn out to be positive that they must stay home and have food delivered either. Indeed South Korea all but stamped it out. And had the difficulty with that fool cult leader who just ignored the ban on large meetings Out of a population of 50m there have been 285 deaths. Taiwan did much better again with just SEVEN killed by the virus. |

Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT.. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. ' 'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom' 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society .... Learn the language!' 'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.' 'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.' 'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.' 'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.' Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in UK , SA, Canada & USA, WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths. only way I see it getting sorted here is if a common sense dictator appears on the political scene and people vote for him / her time is running out..........the age group that would vote for that are dying off and your dumb millennials are too thick to see they are the turkeys voting for christmas |

No, but it is tradition that if you are at the top and *ether* make a bad call or don't ensure your instructions are passed down and implemented correctly / completely, you fall on your sword. However, if your main driver for most of your life is to 'be PM', you aren't going to give that up, just because you were responsible (directly or indirectly though lack of professional ability) just for a few thousand old peoples lives (it seems in this case). Many MP's and other powerful people have resigned on those principals for far far less. Cheers, T i m |

Many on here might agree but can you see Boris getting away with saying any of that? after he told the truth about care homes probably not ... The truth is the NHS put a lot of infected people back into care homes with vulnerable people rather than actually testing them first. The truth is that Boris couldn't organise simple test and trace exercise any more that he could organise a ****-up in a brewery. ================================================== ================ It is not Boris's job to organise anything except to issue the initial instruction - he would have instructed his Civil Servants to arrange and organise such things. You can't be serious. The whole reason politicians are appointed is to get things done on behalf of the country. He is to blame. While it goes to show the ineptness of the Civil Service as a whole, he could easily have sent a directive to hospitals not to release the elderly into a care home setting without a test. One sheet of paper is all it would have taken. If he didn't expect Civil Servants to think outside the box he could have employed outside with a track record of getting things done. Someone given the resources to carry out anything required. Money talks. |

But I'm not absolving the Civil Service for their actions. Something which has been swept under the carpet is the purchase of PPE equipment from Turkey in the early days of the outbreak. My take on it. - Health Minister/PM instructs Civil Servants to secure more PPE to answer calls from NHS staff etc. - Civil Servants in conjunction with overseas Embassies/Consulates/High Commissions locate potential sources. - Civil Servants ask for quotes. Civil Servants are unaware that the PPE must comply with certain BS/EN specifications and the request for quotation contains no such references. - Civil Servant places order. - Order is eventually shipped. - Arrives in UK and is inspected. Inspection finds that PPE is not to an acceptable standard. - Whole matter swept under carpet! |

Thats the reason the civil service is there. No polly can know all the detail of how things should be done. The whole reason politicians are appointed is to get things done on behalf of the country. By deciding the general policy like whether to allow anyone into the country and when to have a lockdown within the country etc. Its never going to work to have the PM decide the detail of how someone should be allowed to return to a care home after hospital. He is to blame. Bull****. While it goes to show the ineptness of the Civil Service as a whole, It actually shows the ineptitude of the individual that decided that. he could easily have sent a directive to hospitals not to release the elderly into a care home setting without a test. But that would have required a recognition that the civil service was actually doing things that stupidly. One sheet of paper is all it would have taken. It takes recognising that the civil service has ****ed up that spectacularly. If he didn't expect Civil Servants to think outside the box he could have employed outside with a track record of getting things done. Someone given the resources to carry out anything required.
