Australia’s Conservatives Win Surprise Election Victory

Sourced from QRes#8349

 

SYDNEY—Australia’s conservative government eked out a surprise victory in Saturday’s national elections after voters in resource-rich districts turned against center-left opponents who had put climate change at the heart of their campaign.

 

Behind in polls for more than two years, Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s Liberal-National coalition appealed to voters in battleground states such as Queensland, struggling at the end of a long mining boom, with a campaign focused on the economy and jobs.

 

With 71% of votes counted, the conservatives were hopeful of gaining a narrow majority in Parliament’s 151-seat House of Representatives, or possibly governing in minority with the support of conservative-leaning independents. Political experts predicted the government would likely win around 77 seats.

 

“I have always believed in miracles,” Mr. Morrison, a devout Christian, said in a speech to jubilant supporters gathered at a Sydney hotel after midnight local time. “Our government will come together after this night and we will get back to work.”

Australia Re-Elects Conservative As Prime Minister In 'Shock' Result, Left Predicts Environmental Apocalypse

 

Interdasting headline - pretty of venom here. Sourced from QRes#8359

 

Australia has "unexpectedly" returned their conservative, Donald Trump-esque Prime Minister to office for a third term in a vote that "shocked" international media and left-leaning Australians.

 

Prime Minister Scott Morrison's Liberal National coalition government will return to power, despite an election that most pollsters and experts agreed was "unwinnable" for conservatives and "unlosable" for the country's Labor party, according to CNN.

"This was the unlosable election for the Labor Party. That's how this was considered," one reporter told international media from an Australian Labor party election celebration Friday evening. Instead, it's likely that the Labor party will be forced to deeply reconsider its platform and make radical changes in leadership.

It seems the polling problems were similar to those that dogged major American networks in the days before the 2016 presidential election, with most outlets under-reporting those who planned to vote for now-President Donald Trump, particularly in swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Florida. Australians under-reported their support for their conservative government, and Labor leaders took that as a sign that they were headed for a landslide victory.

But, it turns out, the Labor position of "taking action on climate change, improving funding to services, and ending tax cuts for top earners" was more unpopular than initially believed. The consensus among post-mortem analysts seems to be that Labor simply got too greedy, assuming that because Australians are willing to accept small, incremental tax increases for certain projects, that they'd be supportive of tax hikes across the board.

"It's Australians who have worked hard, started a business, started a family, bought a home," Morrison credited with sending him to victory. "These are the quiet Australians who have won a great victory tonight."

He called the results a "miracle win."

Morrison campaigned on a simple platform: keep the economy strong by enacting pro-business policies and cutting taxes where he is able. He did not, controversially, have any plan to address "climate change" – something the left made the hallmark of their national campaign.

The left quickly predicted a swift and apocalyptic end to the world. Celebrities and television personalities burst into hysterics on social media, over concerns that Australians had just signed their environmental death warrants, according news.com.au.

Trump and Australia’s Scott Morrison Reaffirm Alliance, Friendship After General Election

Another sauced from QRes#8359

 

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been re-elected to continue on with the job in a general election on May 18 that has been described by the press for left-leaning populists as another a “shock” election victory. The 51-year-old received a congratulatory phone call from U.S. President Donald Trump early on Sunday, May 19. Trump called the result a “great win!”

 

According to the White House, the two leaders reaffirmed the “critical importance” of the long-standing alliance and friendship between the United States and Australia, and they pledged to continue their close cooperation on shared priorities. Center-left Labor, which has governed Australia for only 38 of its 118 years as a federation, had been rated an overwhelming favorite, both in opinion polls and with odds-makers, to topple the conservative Liberal-National coalition government in an unlosable election after the government’s six years in power.

 

Instead, Morrison—who became prime minister only last August when a contentious internal party vote dumped Malcolm Turnbull as its leader—swept the coalition to victory with what is likely to be an increased representation in Parliament. The result is much the same as the last election, which delivered the government a single-seat majority in 2016. Since then, public expectations have taken a roller coaster ride based on the media’s reporting of polls. Opinion polling has been a factor in Coalition and Labor governments ousting four of their own prime ministers in the past decade.

 

Sydney University political scientist Stewart Jackson said the polls that had put Labor ahead of the government for the past two years were too consistent for too long to be credible. “That indicates ‘herding,’ where the pollsters themselves are getting results that they don’t think are right and are adjusting them,” Jackson said. “Because statistically, polls should never come up like that.” Martin O’Shannessy, who headed the respected Newspoll market research company in Sydney for a decade until 2015, said he was “shocked” by the government’s victory, given the polling. “It’s not possible to tell exactly how the current polls are being conducted because they don’t have the same method statement that polls in the past have had,” O’Shannessy said.

 

Until Saturday, Newspoll had accurately predicted the winner of every Australian state and federal election since its inception in 1985. Australia has made voting compulsory, so pollsters’ surveys of Australians’ party preferences usually come close to the election result. Newspolls are published every few weeks and are reported by the Australian media like a game score of the government and opposition’s popularity and achievements.

Wierd Pizza News from NZ

Sourced from QRes#8355 (ie not my personal comments - added so face masher tard gets it this time)

 

Today's New Zealand Herald article, talking about PIZZA, is just weird. Why is this a story? Of course, it isn’t. But New Zealand is a haven for the Cabal, so I immediately start wondering. In fact, I can’t help feeling like this whole random news story is some kind of CODE. For something. Bear with me.

 

The article is about former Prime Minister of New Zealand Bill English and his love of a specialty Hawaiian pizza: one that is topped with spaghetti as well as ham and pineapple.

 

The article states: “Taking to Facebook, English, also formerly the country's finance minister, shared pizza chain Domino's' post about officially adding a Hawaiian spaghetti pizza to its menu, voicing his support. English wrote: "We did it New Zealand. Overseas, they said it couldn't be done. But the proof is in the pineapple.”

 

Okay…

 

So the origins of spaghetti on pizza are supposed to be from New Zealand? Maybe. But this article is still all a bit…random. Or is it? I must say, the PINEAPPLE reference recalls for me the pictures of Chrissy Teigan dressing her child up as a pineapple. And then it all starts to sounds like code. Pizza is not news. It’s just not. Unless you're talking about THAT kind of "pizza."

 

And this is a weird thing to say—the NZ Herald quotes the former prime-minister who is supposedly quoting his young child: "My youngest said, 'started from the bottom of our oven now it's here' - Spaghetti-Pineapple pizza to order.” What does that mean? Kids don't say that.

 

The ex-PM goes on to say, quote: “Nothing beats home-made cooking with the family. It might be missing some of my key ingredients.” Which suddenly makes me wonder…IF this is code, then this odd choice of words might be referencing ‘’’JOHN KEY’’’, the former NZ Prime Minister who English replaced following John Key’s abrupt resignation, which was oh-so “coincidentally” timed right after Trump’s “shock election.” We have to wonder what Q Team has on John Key. Don’t forget John Key is a good friend of Obama’s and they golf together. In fact, Key went off golfing IN HAWAII with Obama IMMEDIATELY after Key’s resignation. So now we have the “pizza reference,” the “Hawaii” reference and the “key” reference in this article. That's too many coincidences for my liking.

 

in any event, I’d hate to know what that “key ingredient” might otherwise be. He doesn’t elaborate.

After ‘Stunning’ Conservative Win, NY Times Compares Australia to ‘American South’

 

This weekend, another political earthquake hit the establishment. After trailing in every poll and being left for dead by liberals in the media, Prime Minister Scott Morrison and the conservatives in Australia won a shocking victory. But, just like with Brexit, Donald Trump’s win in 2016 and other examples, the New York Times on Sunday responded by sneering. In This case, the paper offered up the worst insult coming from Manhattan liberals: Parts of Australia are now like the “American south.”

 

In a “news analysis” by Times writer Damien Cave, the Times headline lamented that voters didn’t care for the activist climate agenda of the left-leaning Labor Party: “It Was Supposed to Be Australia’s Climate Change Election. What Happened?”

China’s ‘Social Credit System’ Is Dystopian Nightmare

Another reason to be wary of China's actions in Australia?

 

Public awareness of this approaching dystopia is growing, thanks to articles in major publications, but few have made the connection with the larger issue of Technocracy, to which China is fully committed. ⁃ TN Editor

 

Imagine calling a friend. Only instead of hearing a ring tone you hear a police siren, and then a voice intoning, “Be careful in your dealings with this person.”

 

Would that put a damper on your relationship? It’s supposed to.

 

Welcome to life in China’s “Social Credit System,” where a low score can ruin your life in more ways than one.

 

Say you arrive at the Beijing airport, intending to catch a flight to Canton 1,200 miles south. The clerk at the ticket counter turns you away because — you guessed it — your social credit score is too low.

 

Not only are you publicly humiliated in the ticket line, you are then forced to travel by slow train. What should have been a three-hour flight becomes a 30-hour, stop-and-go nightmare.

 

All because the government has declared you untrustworthy. Perhaps you defaulted on a loan, made the mistake of criticizing some government policy online or just spent too much time playing video games on the internet. All of these actions, and many more, can cause your score to plummet, forcing citizens onto the most dreaded rung on China’s deadbeat caste system, the laolai.

 

And the punishments are shocking. The government algorithm will go as far as to install an “embarrassing” ring tone on the phones of laolai, shaming them every time they get a call in public.

 

But an embarrassing ring tone, flight bans and slow trains are just the beginning of the dystopian nightmare that is now daily life in China for tens of millions of people.

 

A low social credit score will exclude you from well-paid jobs, make it impossible for you to get a house or a car loan or even book a hotel room. The government will slow down your internet connection, ban your children from attending private schools and even post your profile on a public blacklist for all to see.

 

According to Australia’s ABC News, the government has produced a “Deadbeat Map” via an app on WeChat, which shows a radar-style graphic identifying every laolai in the vicinity of the user.

New Zealand is PANICKING about the REAL videos of [their] key crimes being released, so here they again push the "deep fake" psy-op.

 

The Cabal wants the sheep to believe that any real videos that might drop could just be computer-generated fakes.

 

Somehow I don't think distracting the people from The Cabal's crimes will be so easy this time, however.

NZ study highlights the risk of 'deep fakes' on social media - and why our lawmakers should leave it alone

 

A new study funded by the Law Foundation highlights the risk of "deep fakes" on social media - which co-author Tom Barraclough says "make it look or sound like something happened when it didn't".

 

Examples range from a synthetic, younger version of Carrie Fisher being inserted into Rogue One: A Star Wars Story to popular Snapchat face-swapping filters to pornographers putting famous Hollywood stars' faces onto adult actors in X-rated scenes.

 

But Barraclough says we have multiple laws and guidelines that already cater to the risk - primarily the Crimes Act, which covers when deception is used for gain, the Harmful Digital Communications Act, which covers when it's used for malice and the Privacy Act because "the wrong personal information is still personal information".

 

Barraclough and his co-author Curtis Barnes (both lawyers turned researchers at the Brainbox Institute) warn that fake is a slippery concept.

 

"One person's great satire is another person's deceptive factual record," Barraclough tells the Herald.

 

Barraclough and Barnes report emerged, in part, from the fear that a deep fake attack on a political or business leader would lead to what he calls a "kneejerk" reaction from lawmakers.

 

Specific legislation targetting deep fakes, such as The Malicious Deep Fake Prohibition Act introduced to the US senate last year, risks violating human rights, Barraclough says.

 

"While there are legitimate harms that will justify getting the law involved, there are also human rights risks and risks of over-reach certain forms of human expression."

 

He says most of the time, "deep fake" technology is used by playfully, or as satire. except when its not, I guess ;)

‘Nuclear Coffin’ Might Be Leaking Radioactive Material Into Pacific, Says UN Chief

 

Radioactive waste from a concrete dome known as a nuclear “coffin” located in the Marshall Islands might be leaking into the Pacific Ocean.

 

Last week, U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres said the waste is housed in a Cold War-era dome, describing it as “a kind of coffin” located on Runit island, part of Enewetak Atoll. The dome was built to contain waste from the 67 atomic bomb tests carried out in the area from 1946 to 1958, CBS News reported.

 

France and the United States carried out numerous nuclear tests in the region, including of the 1954 “Castle Bravo” hydrogen bomb, which was the most powerful test ever conducted by the United States.

 

“I’ve just been with the president of the Marshall Islands [Hilda Heine], who is very worried because there is a risk of leaking of radioactive materials that are contained in a kind of coffin in the area,” Guterres told AFP.

 

Radioactive materials from the nuclear blasts were placed into the crater—which was never lined—and capped with an 18-inch-thick concrete dome. But it appears that cracks have developed in the concrete.

China's communists fund Jacinda Ardern's Labour Party: What the United States Congress was told

 

An influential United States Congress hearing has been told "one of the major fundraisers for Jacinda Ardern's party" is linked to the Chinese Communist Party and it showed China had penetrated New Zealand's political networks.

 

As a result, US lawmakers needed to consider whether New Zealand should be kicked out of the Five Eyes intelligence alliance because of problems at its "political core".

 

The bombshell testimony included claims from a former Central Intelligence Agency analyst that "anything on China that was briefed to Bill English was briefed to Mr Yang Jian", the National MP revealed last year as having trained spies for China.

 

The hearing of the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission was aimed at gathering evidence on China's relationship with traditional US allies.

 

UN Senator James Talent - once touted as Donald Trump's pick for Secretary of Defence - raised concerns about "a sharp rise in political donations" from Chinese Government-backed bodies to political parties in Australia and New Zealand.

 

China's actions included getting people linked to the Communist Party or People's Liberation Army elected and had made it worth the while of political figures "to parrot its line on issues it deems important".

'I'll burn for you': How our Pentecostal PM energised Christian voters

Sourced from QRes#8383

 

Scott Morrison declared his election victory a “miracle,” told an interviewer he saw people as “agents of God’s love” and used a National Press Club address to promise voters “I will burn for you” - a phrase used by some Pentecostal Christians to signify working tirelessly, often for Jesus.

 

One of his first acts during the campaign was to allow the cameras to record him worshipping at his church, Horizon.

 

Mr Morrison is not the first government leader of faith (John Howard, Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott were all Christians) but in his political language, the re-elected Prime Minister is arguably the most overt.

 

According to the Australian Christian Lobby’s Martyn Iles, this language - coupled with the PM’s support for religious freedom - is re-energising religious communities and turning them to the Liberal Party.

 

“It does give people of faith a degree of confidence when they see a Prime Minister who is clearly Christian,” Mr Iles said.

 

“It doesn’t surprise me when it seems like religious communities played a role in the rising support for the Liberal Party, because I think that confidence probably did play into the psychology of their vote.”

Phillip Nitschke's 3D-printable 'Death Pod' for 'stylish' and 'peaceful' suicide premiered at Venice expo

 

Sourced from QRes#8393

 

Tired of the old, painful and ugly suicide methods? Now you can have a "peaceful, elective and lawful death" at the press of a button with Sarco, a suicide pod – and it even comes with a built-in eco-friendly coffin.

 

Alongside halls filled with abstract art and video installations, browsers at the 58th Venice art Biennale can now get a sneak peak at "Sarco" – short for sarcophagus, – a sleek, portable and 3D printable machine that could help bring suicide into the 21st century.

 

The so-called 'death pod' was designed by Australian humanist, author and euthanasia advocate Philip Nitschke, whose previous invention was called the Deliverance machine and was used by four people to commit suicide via lethal injection.

 

"This is the most important day of your life, the day you die. It is something not to be hidden, it should be eloquent and beautiful."

 

Sarco's main features were first advertised in 2017, and include an unspecified electronic questionnaire to make sure you're sane enough to decide to die. After locking yourself inside and passing the test, you get the code to start the euthanasia process. Enter it, and Sarco starts pumping nitrogen to replace the oxygen in the pod, producing a slight "tipsy" feeling before you nod off for good.

 

As an added bonus, the transparent lid allows you to die somewhere with a view.

 

"You can tow it off and have it overlooking the Alps or the lakes. When you're ready you say goodbye, use the code to get in, pull down the canopy, press a button and you die in a few minutes. It's a very peaceful death," Nitschke explained.

 

For those prone to last-minute second thoughts, there's a stop button and an escape hatch – because product safety is key to good design, Sarco's creators explain in a promotional video.

 

They built in a figurative escape hatch for themselves, too, in case a potential Sarco user happens to reside in a country where assisted suicide is illegal. In this case, Nitschke and designer Alexander Bannink suggest you 3D-print your own death pod using their idea, leaving their hands clean of potential liability for knowingly giving you a suicide tool.

 

The machine will be on display for the next 6 months before being shipped for its first use in Switzerland, a country where assisted suicide is legal.

 

Some commenters on Twitter welcomed Sarco as a sign the future has arrived – at least the way 'Futurama', a cartoon set in the 31st century, imagined it.

Australian actor Geoffrey Rush awarded $2.9 million

Sourced from QRes#8394

 

'Geoffrey Rush has been awarded a total of $2.9 million after winning his high-profile defamation case against a Sydney newspaper publisher.

 

Justice Michael Wigney in April found The Daily Telegraph’s publisher, Nationwide News, and journalist Jonathon Moran were reckless regarding the truth when they reported Rush had been accused of inappropriate behaviour during a Sydney theatre production of King Lear.

 

The judge found a poster and two articles contained several defamatory meanings — including that Rush was a pervert and a sexual predator — but the publisher hadn’t proven they were true.'

 

#MeToo in tatters.
