We have a problem in this country: The elite is untouchable, sacred. Everything and everybody else is fair game.
Yesterday Victorian Police limited itself to brutalising climate change protesters (other State police have manhandled old men and strip-searched teenage girls, presumably because they could carry WMDs in their vaginas). Today they decided that journalists, including a Chanel Seven reporter, were also a legitimate target. After all, they capture in images scenes Victorian Police don't want the public to see:
Incredible. I was obeying their direction to move to another area. I’m stunned. https://t.co/YsZDIjc9jO— Paul Dowsley (@pauldowsley7) October 30, 2019

Today I was reporting on #IMARC for @FarragoMagazine. I was not involved in the blockade, just a student journalist peacefully observing. Yet I was still pepper sprayed by police. This police brutality MUST end. @VictoriaPolice pic.twitter.com/CAwufSQGyJ— Ailish Hallinan (@AilishHallinan) October 29, 2019
And make no mistake, the Australian Labor Party is no different from the COALition. As it happens, the Victorian Premier, Daniel Andrews, is a member of the ALP. Whether he personally unleashed them or not, he gave his seal of approval to the Victorian Police's brutality. I am sure federal Resources Minister Matt Canavan, who attended the conference, was appreciative.
Our survival depends on draining the malignant Labor/COALition pustule. Don't vote for that scum; write to your "representatives" in Parliament and let them know what you think of that. Protest people, while we still can.
I suppose we must be grateful the Victorian junta has not authorised the police to murder protesters ... yet.

And speaking of pus and putrefaction. The Chanel Nine reporter tasked to cover the protests on Tuesday claimed to have witnessed protesters spitting on mining delegates. The footage they presented, however, only showed cops beating and pepper-spraying attendants. So, I'll leave readers to decide: Was that thing merely negligent or was it lying?
Gosh...It's horrible to see how people struggle compating fot their freedom. I wish we could change something, maybe start creating such associations as https://www.aaappp.org.uk/ to protect ourselves from the police abuse.
