Or just what govt & MSM want you to focus on?<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LWlf7qexk1o/Vm5zIJe0Y2I/AAAAAAAACO0/6nN48UXUjUw/s1600/5967064-3x2-340x227.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LWlf7qexk1o/Vm5zIJe0Y2I/AAAAAAAACO0/6nN48UXUjUw/s200/5967064-3x2-340x227.jpg" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> On December 15th Australia waited in anticipation for then treasurer Joe Hockey to make his mid year budget statement. His government who market themselves on fiscal prudence were about to announce a horror </span><a href="http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/treasurer-joe-hockey-faster-and-deeper-problems-behind-budget-deficit-of-401b-20141215-127ha2.html" target="_blank"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">$40 billion budget deficit</span></a><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: "arial";">Then out of left field a man with a curious history of dealings with government departments appeared out of left field and took hostages in Lindt Café in Martin Place. As in 2001 when the 9-11 distraction turned the political fortunes of the Howard government from oblivion to re-election the Lindt siege was exactly what the Abbott/Hockey government needed to distract the public with fear from the "budget horribilus". </span><br />

<span style="color: white; font-family: "arial";"> Man Haron Monis was investigated by ASIO as many as four times and on an ASIO watch list in 2008-2009 then removed. No reasons are publicly given for his removal. A litany of apparent government systemic failures saw Australia not respond affirmatively to an Iranian government request for his extradition on serious criminal charges and other errors of fortune for Monis which saw him freed on bail on accessory to murder and over 40 charges of sexual molestation which were pending. Was he controlled by ASIO or other government agents? We don't know. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial;"> We know first hand that there was a major military training exercise by counter terrorism units at this location on 30 April / 1st May 2013 on the very block where Lindt Café is. The then 24-7 Occupy Sydney occupation were surrounded by it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5deTABITkDs/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5deTABITkDs?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial;"></span> </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial;"> We do know that the Lindt Café siege which killed two innocent civilians and left Monis incapacitated to tell tales by death, clearly demonstrated the incapacity of Australian State and Federal Police military and security agencies to deal effectively with an apparent lone wolf hostage event. This failure comes 13 years after the 9-11 attacks in New York were used as a pretext to pass a raft of laws which gave police extraordinary powers to deal with much more professionally organised incidents than this. </span></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5KkSZFPE_Hw/Vm53J0lE3wI/AAAAAAAACPA/EADEc4oLcbg/s1600/a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5KkSZFPE_Hw/Vm53J0lE3wI/AAAAAAAACPA/EADEc4oLcbg/s200/a.jpg" width="152" /></span></a><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial;"> The N.S.W. police response might well have used an episode of the Keystone Cops as an instruction manual, so inept were their responses. Why for example did they not utilise the undoubted skills. The roof of the lower section of the then Westpac building diagonally opposite Lindt café provides an ideal position for a marksman to selectively target an individual in Lindt Café. If police don't have such skills then the military certainly do. Did the failure to deploy such marksmen at this and other available locations sign the death warrants of the innocent Lindt café manager and lawyer whose unfortunate choice of timing put her in the wrong place at the wrong time?</span></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> For the Abbott government the Lindt café siege succeeded in taking the heat off them and their toxic budget. Falsehoods such as </span><a href="http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-12-16/hockeys-wheat-price-figures-incorrect-in-myefo/5970240" target="_blank"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Hockey's use of the wheat price to justify the budget blowout</span></a><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> went unexamined. The mainstream media had world coverage and a rapt publics attention which drove their ratings and advertising value into positive territory. State and federal police were able to use the public fear driven tactics that flowed from the Port Arthur massacre to get more funding and powers to the delight of their political masters. Government should control the people - not the people control the government. As the Liberal National and Labor parties desire the relationship to be.</span></span></div>

Peter Harris's Budvalt was given permission to extract water from the
Barwon river at his Rumleigh, Brewarrina property to water his cotton
crop in February 2015 during a pumping embargo on the Barwon-Darling. </span><span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;"><br /></span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Apparently
this was permitted by the NSW Office of Water based on his Water Access
Licence (WAL) being a Class A licence that includes Section 48 where
the irrigator can apply for special permission to pump, These licences
are usually for permanent plantings such as an orchard. This Section
must include consultation with key stakeholders including local affected
farmers and aboriginal groups. <b>Our inquiries reveal that the consultation process was at its highest flawed. There is suspicion that it may be corrupt: <i>for
example the local Aboriginal community were represented by an
Aboriginal representative from Moree who had no right to be talking on
behalf of the Ngemba people</i></b>. This approval was delegated by then
Water Minister and local state MP Kevin Humphries to NSW Office of
Water. News reports at the time stated that the Barwon dependent towns
of Walgett and Brewarrina were experiencing critical water shortages
with other cotton growers having no such access to water when there was a
rise in the Barwon In May 2015. This process must be called
into question when determining the legality of the licence grant. </span><span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;"></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;">Paddock
on Brewon Station, that were once famous for native Mitchell grass
that includes part of the ‘Warnocks Paddock” that has been subject to
ploughing and crop dusting of native Mitchell grass and native trees.</span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">3.
The Local Lands (LLS) Services website promotes that “TSRs provide
pasture reserves for travelling or grazing stock. These reserves can be
beneficial in times of drought, bushfire or flood. They are also used
for public recreation, apiary sites and for conservation. Local Land
Services manages the land to strike a balance between the needs of
travelling or grazing stock and the conservation of native species”.</span><span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;"><br /></span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">4.
The terms of the LLS TSR’s on Brewon Station has been totally and
perhaps illegally circumvented by Budvalt owner operators Peter and Jane
Harris and Sons.</span><span style="background: black; color: red; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;"> </span><span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;"><br /></span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">5.
Budvalt then applied to pump water for irrigation from the Marthaguy
Creek at Carinda and to do works from “Riverview” to “Geera Cotton”.</span><span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;"><br /></span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">6.
The advertising of this application was suspicious as the DPI only
advertised it once in the Walgett Spectator and the Koori Mail. They
would have achieved about the same coverage by advertising in the
Adelaide Advocate. If Harris had genuinely wanted the Carinda people to
know about his intention to pump from their creek he would have ensured
the attached Development Application was advertised publicly in Carinda
and was put in the print version of the Carinda Comment as one of the
editors is married to a Harris manager and lives on the Harris owned
cotton farm “Willewaa” at Carinda. </span><span style="color: white; font-size: 16.0pt;"><br /></span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">7.The
earthworks between “Riverview” and “Geera” have already been completed,
a 2 km channel has been constructed and water had already been moved
between “Riverview” and “Geera” before Budvalt applied for permission.</span><span style="color: white; font-size: 4.5pt;"><br /></span><span style="background: black; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">8.
The Carinda people took up a petition to object to the pumping
application, it will be interesting to see if the DPI still approves the
application to pump. This flyer promoting the petition is also on the
Carinda Comment facebook site.</span><span style="font-size: 18.0pt;"></span></div>

Police illegal spying on Facebook account called criminal by magistrate <span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We have known for a long time that N.S.W. Police use widespread illegal spying. Up until now they have been emboldened by judicial blindness. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally a magistrate has spoken out in a case where police had an unauthorised surveillance of a facebook account which led to charges against the alleged account holder calling out police actions as illegal.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> At Occupy Sydney we are well versed in illegal police activity. We see police cars speeding and parking illegally on a daily basis. We know where some of the street surveillance camera blindspots are which police routinely use to illegally search and harass young people out enjoying themselves in Sydney. We regularly get cameras in their faces when they are doing these illegal searches and some of us have been arrested. We know that the October 23rd 2011 mass police attack on the Occupy Sydney occupation and the further attacks as Occupy Sydney continued the 24-7 occupation were illegal. We know that police have support from the highest political offices to carry out their illegal actions.<a href="http://www.jdbarrister.com.au/images/menu/Priestley%20Court%20of%20Appeal.pdf"> This farcical appeal process was instigated by then premier Barry O'Farrell</a>. They lost. The DPP took over 12 months to pay the ordered court costs.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This case is another of police exceeding their powers at the very time they are calling for the so called independent police watchdog to be disbanded. When called out by the learned magistrate senior police attempted to use the public interest to protect police from further scrutiny.<span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/consumer-security/private-facebook-posts-illegally-hacked-by-nsw-police-20151112-gky1bf.html" target="_blank"> Read More Here</a></b></span></span>Lance Priestleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09444673837853671536noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1217613472897672040.post-81354505976244027192015-11-15T22:56:00.001+11:002015-11-15T23:15:48.671+11:00No CSG NSW Red Alert 10p.m. 15-11-2015 Fracking rig Coonabarabran pointed Dubbo way<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px;">

***PROTEST AGAINST RACIST "RECLAIM AUSTRALIA" RALLY***<br />
<br />
The racist organisation ‘Reclaim Australia’ is holding another rally on Sunday July 19 in Sydney. We are calling for all those who oppose racism to mobilise in a peaceful protest to oppose their bigotry, xenophobia and Islamophobia.<br />
<br />
PM Tony Abbott’s scaremongering about terrorism is feeding the systemic demonisation of Muslims. This, along with years of ra<span class="text_exposed_hide">...</span><span class="text_exposed_show">cist policies towards refugees and asylum seekers from the major parties provides fertile soil for Reclaim Australia and associated entities to grow.<br /><br /> We must not let fascists and extreme nationalists spout their racist messages without anti-racists putting forward our views.<br /><br /> We are calling on people to gather at Martin Place in the space where Reclaim Australia plans to hold their protest, one hour before their event begins, to contest their rally with a large, loud counter-demonstration. We will deliver the strongest possible message to them that their racism is not welcome.<br /><br /> Please put aside the date, start telling your friends, and let’s make this the biggest anti-racist rally it can possibly be!<br /><br /> We are looking for endorsements and help with publicity, so please contact the page if you'd like to help out in any way.</span><span class="text_exposed_show"><br /><br /> For more information:<br /> Omar Hassan on 0421 185 037<br /> Rahaf Ahmed on 0402 811 613<br /> Mia Sanders on 0406 160 496</span></div>

Parents, kids, and friends occupy The Department of Immigration and Citizenship Melbourne.Pro refugee supporters, including parents, babies, kids, pregnant mothers, and friends will stage a 'play in' within the Department of Immigration and Citizenship today in an act of civil disobedience around the treatment of asylum seekers. The group calling themselves Families, Friends and Feminists Against Detention (FFFAD) will stage their first 'Gathering', the first of many, in solidarity with asylum seekers currently protesting on Nauru.<br>
FFFAD organiser Nadia Mizner, parent to a 9 month old baby, stated; “The Australian government knew abuse was happening 17 months before the Moss review came out. If there was a known perpetrator in one of our schools, would we allow our kids to remain under their care? No we wouldn't. Nauru is a tiny island with perpetrators living alongside survivors even after their release. This is an issue for all parents and feminists to be concerned about. We need to close this Nauru hellhole and bring these people to the safety they were seeking in the first place, here within the Australian community. We unequivocally support the asylum seekers campaign of non cooperation in Nauru, and will now be starting our own here.” FFFAD was formed with a specific concern for the effects of mandatory detention and offshore processing on families, women and children. FFFAD expects around 50 people and kids to attend today. Leilani Turner, another organiser for FFFAD, has stated; “Mandatory detention and offshore processing dehumanizes and degrades everyone. However this system specifically ignores the health imperatives of women, both antenatal and otherwise, the seriousness of sexual violence on children and women, and the effects of family separation particularly in the context of long-term detention. FFFAD calls for an end to mandatory detention and offshore processing and justice for asylum seekers.

But there's much more. Government's and Corporations don't have a preference as to whether they bring it in through the front or back door...and they're trying to do it in secret. The front door is by signing the agreement. The backdoor is by bringing it in in piecemeal scraps of legislation scattered across Federal State and local body jurisdictions. Some of which will bang the door shut on our freedoms.</span></b></span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> </span><br />
