Thanks for the heads up Alison but do you honestly, genuinely believe this will make any difference? With the greatest respect, this is just glorified theatre...

Yes! It makes a difference

Policy advisors, media and researchers read submissions

It goes on record forever

It is easy to do and it is there for the reason of public consultation

This is our chance to make our voice heard to the government. If we don't put it on record then we can't complain they don't listen

Of course they will likely declare a big victory but at least we must put the evidence on record that they are lying

They are overtly manipulating ABS data to hide excess deaths. With all due respect, and I am well aware of all you have done to try and expose the crimes, 100,000 letters from actual Australian's, will not make one iota of difference. This is an open crime that will require a 'non verbal' resolution. Revolt, if you prefer.

Yes it counts. Just because we cannot solve the whole problem with one submission doesnt mean its not worth doing

Every little bit helps and we must do what we can.

Even if they ignore it, it gets counted, they must read it, researchers and media can trawl through submissions for research and so will the AI. If we do not speak up about what they did, the they can pretend nothing was wrong with their response. We must speak up with our evidence

Submissions from 23,000 Australians stalled the Misinformation And Disinformation Bill.

That's fewer than 1 in 1000 Australians.

There is indisputable evidence available that proves the government and private enterprise have directly caused the deaths of ten's of thousands of Australian's. Both parties are manipulating public records, destroying evidence and outright lying to protect private and fiscal interests. In response, we are writing letters and kicking cans down the road? You'll have to excuse my pessimist attitude, I have contributed to these efforts, but my gut suggests these are just diversion distractions. I do hope to be proven wrong before too many more people die.

Yes they did it, but the system has this mechanism for us to try to correct it and we must try

Alison, I think its a brilliant all round submission with evidence. They are now on notice.

As an aside, I really felt Barry Young had nailed it but now he's in trouble for showing truth.

yes, you wonderful Timmy. Yes, Barry Young nailed it, and yes, that is public data they should have transparently released almost immediately with names redacted so the public could know their actual risk. The government doesn't own that data, the people of NZ do. He is a genuine hero for leaking the way he did, which was careful and measured with names redacted.

They monitor my Substack and are well aware of what they did and the effects of murder, torture and kidnap on the Australian people.

It will turn out like this: https://vicparkpetition.substack.com/p/government-of-western-australia-declares

Government of Western Australia declares pandemic response a 'total success'

“This Review does not seek to provide a detailed or forensic assessment of the WA Government’s COVID-19 response – rather it seeks to focus on what worked well and what can be done better in the future.”

Edit: please see statement by Qld government October 20 'vaccination summit' https://statements.qld.gov.au/statements/98910

“I am concerned about declining vaccination rates and confidence. We cannot allow vaccination fatigue, conspiracy theories, and cost-of-living pressures to undermine our vaccination rates.”

They do not care and are going for it, evidence and body count be damned.

We must still do what we can

And we can all write a submission by Friday

It does help. It goes on the public record and gets read by policy advisors.

This is not too hard to do. And it does make a difference.

If they want to claim a glowing success at least we can have our evidence on record forever that they are lying

I sincerely support your optimism and I am glad people like you exist.

However, the Australian government is too afraid of the US DOD to do anything so the charade continues.

i think you are right about that. but still it makes a difference. Just like the shopkeeper in communist czechoslovakia, all he could do was take down the mandated commie sign in the shop window, so that's what he did.

like grass through the cracks of the concrete, every little bit helps break it up

Expand full comment

Yes but in your example of the shopkeeper that is a personal act of irl resistance which is critical. I would suggest that filling out a form to be sent to a government black hole is futile.

Expand full comment

Yes but they get published so not a govt black hole - we can search them and learn from each other's submissions. Media can report on them, there is all sorts of benefits

Glorified cold. Not when it hit me nor many of my friends.

Some people did suffer badly with covid and some died. But then some people are put in hospital with pneumonia after a bad cold also, and some die. Not to trivialise your experience, but Covid was not that different.

Not perfect but my submission is now above if you might find anything in there to help you
