The packed meeting hall fronted by 12 Casey City councillors and management staff.
The palatial Casey City Council offices, aka Bunjil Place, which apparently gives it indigenous credibility.

VICTORIAN councillors and their bureaucrat controllers are slow to read the rising anti-authoritarian sentiment across the West as expressed in the Trump revolution in the US.

Last week a Melbourne council meeting erupted into chaos and police were forced to intervene when hundreds of frustrated ratepayers exploded at City of Casey councillors. More than 500 angry ratepayeres swamped the meeting room, protesting over the latest round a petty regulations designed to pilfer money for council coffers. Welcome to Country was also loudly booed.

A major part of their outrage stemmed from private land permit regulations restricting the storage of multiple unregistered vehicles on private property. It appears that the accumulation of private property in the form of vehicles is seen as some sort of threat by the comrades within Victoria’s bureaucracy.

The Age newspaper, speaking for the state’s Socialist Left establishment, headlined its story “Chaos in Casey: Meeting shut down as councillors sprayed with abuse”. Exactly what did they expect with greedy little council bureaucrat now demanding a non-refundable $150 for a “permit” to allow a property owner to apply to store unregistered vehicles on their own property.

And then there is the $250 so-called “permit fee” for storing three or more unregistered vehicles, or working on your own vehicle. This is simply extraordinary bureaucratic overreach.

Apologists for the council say such regulations have been around for a long time, and only recently burst into headlines when the council impounded some vehicles that were being stored on land without permission.

However the Trahar family, who own the vehicles, told 7News they are the lawful owners of the 5000 sq/m property through a 99-year lease. The council says the Trahars were “not authorised” to store the vehicles on the neighbouring property and that their actual property was not entered by officers.

Regardless of the rights and wrongs of the Trahar case, the real issue is the regulations prohibiting people from working on their own vehicles.

Tensions at the meeting escalated when attendees realised they could not ask the councillors questions if they had not been submitted before the meeting commenced, sparking what media called “a chorus of expletives” and shouts of “boo!” and “bullshit” at the panel of councillors.

Councils, of course, acting under state government Local Government Acts, increasingly see themselves as the effective administrators of your property, imposing all sorts of fees and charges at will to satisfy the alleged needs of some bureaucratic demand.

A petition page set up against the bylaw states “It is vital to recognize the imposition this decision places on homeowners. It contradicts the core principle of private property rights, under which we should have the right to use our land as we see fit without governmental intervention, as long as we aren’t causing harm or nuisance to others.”

Casey resident and Libertarian Party candidate for Victoria, Step;hen Matulec commented on X: “Full house at the Casey council meeting tonight. The anger continues over council overreach on private property rights and car permits.

“People don’t want to be told how many vehicles they can have on their land and what hobbies they can perform. Councils should be fixing roads and collecting rubbish, not intruding and sticking their nose onto private property.”

It’s a message that more and more people are becoming aware of. The Trump phenomenon is not isolated to the US alone, but around the western world where government bureaucracies have become increasingly overbearing and dictatorial.

The 12 councillors elected to Casey municipality last November need to get their heads around this sentiment and act accordingly. The council had been in administration for five years over corruption allegations.

    You said –

    And please no one tell me to not pay them because I cannot do that as I will not tolerate a caveat being brought on my property and I couldn’t stomach being thrown into a legal minefield of them going after my property. It’s just bloody disgusting – what awful greedy bullies.

    Yes, agree with all your sentiments exactly.
    We are learning more and more every day, and many reconveyed Free Terra Australis men and woman are /have already reconveyed their properties as well and are/ have been sending notice to said contractors to stop paying fraudulent taxes on their own land.

    I know Dianne exactly how you feel because that is how we all feel, trapped in limbo, not game to take that leap of faith, trapped by “their” FEAR !
    That is how they control us all – Through FEAR and division.
    And all because we weren’t told, our parents, our grandparents our great grandparents all thought they were living in the land of the Free and we never have.

    Dianne it is your call, but please consider contacting or going along to your next local TASA meeting.
    Amazing people all volunteering their own time to educate us all on how to navigate our way back to “real” freedom.
    Give it a crack, what have you got to lose?
    Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
    No commitments, no monies asked – totally up to you.

    P.S they along with the Corruption Whistleblower ( 3 editions ) have since Jan 2025 been printing their own Monthy newspaper , March edition avail now.
    Get along to your local Tasa meeting to get a copy ( some outlets now making them available) Great stuff 🙂

    Good health to all,
    Common sense Phil, CQ.

  2. Dennis said – “… Local Councils are just corporations, businesses for profit, not recognized in our great original Constitution, and have NO AUTHORITY OVER ANYTHING, and cannot charge for rates of anything else without your approval to agree…”

    And by “your approval to agree” (?) you probably mean a signed contract for services, which the corporations trading under the names of the 550+ “local councils” all across Australia most definitely do NOT have with each of their so-called “rate payers”.

    So no, they don’t actually have the legal authority to be charging anyone for anything.

    But here’s the thing – everyone ELSE involved in the grand foreign occupation of Australia is ALSO a corporation, at every possible level of “governance”, including the armies of shit-for-brains granny-bashing child-molesting pig-raping sex-trafficking drug-dealing gangsta-wannabe mass-murdering hired mercenary thugs trading under the names of the respective “police services” in every Australian state and territory, as well as the whole alleged “judiciary” and lawyers’ guild and the Banksters and Supermarkets and fake “government” welfare services and ALL the rest.

    And they’re all on the same team, and that’s not OUR team.

    So most people, especially poor old toothless grannies and gramps on their walking frames, never mind the average clueless dumbed down Australian householder, don’t have the time, resources or knowledge to face these bastards down or to fight them off.

    When ALL of it is illegal and unconstitutional, from top to bottom and inside out all across the land, individuals are on a losing wicket against a collective foreign-owned and controlled corporate leviathon which has HORDES of faithful anti-Australian stooges all scheming and coordinating together and MASSIVE resources to crush anyone so foolish as to dissent.

    The SOLUTION is to AMPUTATE every last one of these corporate pirates and every last one of their Treasonous minions from off of our continent, DECISIVELY, EMPHATICALLY and PERMANENTLY.

    But that’s going to take some time, and these mass-murdering bastards never sleep. Eight more years in between more economic destruction and manufactured famine and pestilence and bioweapon and DEW assaults and the occasional World War thrown in just for variety, at least according to Socrates (and let’s be honest, folks, progress against our adversaries has been real slow and uninspiring up to this point).

    In the meantime, holding your own against these genocidal corporate bastards will require more than just one-liners. We need COLLECTIVELY curated strategies, demonstrated results and the real-time support to match in order to face down these mongrel “local councils” for a start.

    FWIW, there’s a few commenters on these forums that have been trying to point us to such team solutions, and I mean TEAM solutions, to our corporate “problems”. Obvious Bob, love his feisty little Hobbit heart, is perhaps one, Mike Holt another, Common Sense Phil yet another, and there are more besides. Hey, get up off your arse and look into these things for yourself, we’re not your mother. And if you find something that actually works then run with it.

    And did we mention Bosi’s growing Australia One community? Not to mention Commo John’s Freedom Union for those so inclined (you know it’s over the target when it cops so much systematically coordinated flak).

    Eight more years of this shit, folks. Try to last that long and live to hear the Fat Lady sing.

  3. Playing devils advocate for a minute: The guy in the 7 News clip admits he does NOT own the land. He has a 99 year lease that cost “$1”. Where can we all get 5000sq meters of land for $1? Lease was probably issued 90 years ago when one dollar was worth something, and boats and caravans didn’t exist. So who owns the land? The regulations (ABN holding councils can’t create LAW, as they aren’t a third tier of Constitutional government …. we told them in two referendums to get stuffed about that) … were created in 2023. Anyone else since 2023 make the news? Or just the one dollar guy?

  4. grrrr I had my temper flare again today – I received a rate reminder notice (I rang them and told them I never got the one in the first place) and they told me that I have to pay interest as the rates are overdue – I said Australia Post did not deliver the rate notice in January, (but I did get the rate reminder notice today) – I have been here since 1975 and none have ever gone missing before – I said we have all Indian Australia Post riders and Australia post parcel delivery drivers now and a lot of them seem to get addresses mixed sometimes etc.. and struggle with language so maybe reading – they have got addresses wrong before.
    I made a complaint to AP about this and said I am additionally concerned at what other mail they may ‘lose’.

    I am concerned additionally as this is my identifying rates notice information that has gone astray by Australia Post and I’m being charged interest by council to rub salt into the wound on a rates bill they Australia Post failed to deliver on rates we pay every 3 months.

    And please no one tell me to not pay them because I cannot do that as I will not tolerate a caveat being brought on my property and I couldn’t stomach being thrown into a legal minefield of them going after my property. It’s just bloody disgusting – what awful greedy bullies.

  5. Just before the last Local Government elections I noticed some placards for those seeking election as I walked into the Newsagent. As I do I mentioned to the bloke behind the counter – “By the look of their faces I wouldn’t vote for any of them”. He replied, “Be careful what your saying mate, that’s my wife”.

  6. When I bought my new home it didn’t have a driveway from the street. There was a piece of steel construction hardware in the gutter to help get over the curb. It was shaped in a ‘U’ shape so water could run underneath.

    I approached the local council to see about putting in a driveway. They gave me various documents including one for the four ‘authorized installers’. The specifications were straight forward and I could have done the work myself.

    Then they told me the cost for the ‘permit’ was $230. I asked why the permit cost so much and they said “we have to inspect the driveway after it is finished”. I replied, you just gave me a list of authorized installers, shouldn’t they know how to do it to code?

    They told me they still had to inspect it. I replied I will think about it. After 17 years I’m still driving over the curb. I refuse to pay a corrupt council and an ‘authorized installer’ who is giving kick-backs to the council.

  7. So most dummies think we’re paying rates for SERVICES rom “our” local councils?

    We’re actually paying a HIDDEN WEALTH TAX and RENT on our land value. A tax payable to a corporate run council established by the state grubbernment.

    A pensioner couple who don’t own their patch consume just as much council “services” as a couple who rent. Except the former pay NOTHING for their council services!

    It’s nothing to do with fair payment for any council services we get or consume.

    It’s just another scam by state grubbernments to hide the taxes they charge us for providing for ourselves! Yet another fine for the fruits of our own sweat and labour.

  8. Every ploy that is used against you revolves around Contract Law that is imposed by Corporate Admiralty Maritime Law System of governance, which is unlawful to be used against live mankinds.
    So whenever you are sent a bill, that you have not signed a contract for, then it is illegitimate unless you verbally agreed to it, or touched it with your DNA.
    So beware of falling into the traps of government and business corporations that will whisk you into their courts which actually have NO JURISDICTION OVER YOU without your ignorant consent.
    If you consider this and take it to heart you will no longer pay taxes, rates, utility bills, and will become much better off.

  9. Precisely Graham, get your No Trespass signs displayed front & back, NOW. We’re being tested with CARS & if not addressed it will expand into other areas. We display the usual No Trespass Plenty v Dillon etc posters, but also this home-grown one:

    To Whom it May Concern:
    Thy Shalt Enter Thee By Thine Invitation.

    If necessary quote the Bill of Rights provisions in inherited Imperial Acts:

    Section 8, sub-section 12 of the Imperial Acts Application Act dictates that “All promises of fines and forfeitures of particular persons before conviction are illegal and void.”

    Ask are you impersonating judicial authority, or police authority under what crime of doing harm, who is the Informant, & then “I’ll see you in court.” Or if they threaten court, demand a Court of Competent Jurisdiction. Even the Lawyers can’t get around that one.

    Enjoy!

  10. Local Councils are just corporations, businesses for profit, not recognized in our great original Constitution, and have NO AUTHORITY OVER ANYTHING, and cannot charge for rates of anything else without your approval to agree.
    The State Government is not their boss as governments do not run business corporations under lawful circumstances.
    Land tax is not Constitutional either.
    You are better of just refusing to pay until they perform to your standards.
    Do not ever pay a bill addressed to you in CAPITOL LETTERS as that is not the living you, it is just a fake corporation the government registered in your name at your birth without your approval, and cannot be charged against you lawfully. Just send them back unopened saying that corporation does not reside at this address.

  11. dianedraytonbuckland said – “… It will be never ending until we ARE ALL DRIVEN FROM OUR HOMES…”

    True dat.

    Anyone else notice the SPOOKILY SIMULTANEOUS “vision” of urban development promoted in mailbox flyers and media releases by just about EVERY Australian “local council”, all at the SAME TIME? All completely by coincidence, all entirely out of the blue, all completely and honestly dreamt up ORGANICALLY by your “local council” without any outside influence, all 547 “local councils” at the VERY SAME TIME?

    That “vision” where all amenities will be within 15 minutes walking distance for every person so you don’t “need” to be driving any damn dirty motor vehicles (and you won’t be ALLOWED to either). And chances are by that time you’ll be drinking maggot milk, eating cockroach sandwiches and shitting out tomorrow’s lunch menu.

    LOCKSTEP, folks, that’s the way the WEF likes to do things, and EVERY CEO of EVERY fake corporate so-called “local council” all across Australia is on the WEF’s payroll.

    Surprise!

  12. Here’s a thought for everyone… Deliberately get parking fines on council property. Wait for them to send you the phone and then turn it into a bill of exchange. This is a legal financial instrument that you sent back to them, without sending your money, and they must accept it as payment; that is the law. If you want to know more, Join me any Thursday at 6 pm Eastern standard Time Queensland on my weekly zoom chat.

    https://mikeholtshow.com/

    Bring your questions, get ready to learn from others questions and let’s undermine GovCorp so thoroughly by with holding our cash and sending them the bill of exchange. It’s the perfect weapon because by law they must accept it. They do kick back, but you just have to stand strong and keep insisting they accept it. I have been doing it for over a year, and since I started I haven’t paid for one fine, electricity bill, and other bills from the government. I simply do a bit of exchange and send it back.

  13. It will be never ending until we ARE ALL DRIVEN FROM OUR HOMES.
    Remember this > North Sydney Council votes to increase rates by more than 87 per cent over two years……..

    Many more of our people are now realising >
    ‘When Injustice Becomes Law – Resistance Becomes Duty”

  14. I am sure the police were very effective in protecting corporate corruptos and Marxist PC screws in the Casey Council from hundreds of angry ratepayers who have every reason to round them up with bear spray and lock them up in their stupid Bunjil Palace. Architecturally designed to look like a big sack full of sorry business with a white wave foam cresting the top. Whatever is in there is fermenting, it would seem.

    A few weeks on the WEF menu with plenty of indigenous bug biscuits, welcome to country videos, covid boosters and motivational speeches by the Greens and Teals should get them in the right frame of mind to do theirf’ingjobs: rates, rubbish, roads.

  15. No member of the Commonwealth of Australia …that’s you and me…. Canobey a bad law… especially when it’s no law at all. DO NOT COMPLY!

  16. Suzanne said – “… The managers all seem to be like mini Hitlers…”

    Close, Suzanne, so very close.

    They’re all little WEFers, all of them little Klaus Schwab mini-me’s.

    Hundreds of them, all across Australia.

    Klaus hasn’t just “penetrated zee cabinets”, he’s penetrated zee local councils not just here in Australia but all around the world.

    And it’s really starting to show now, like tits on a bull, like the proverbial dog’s balls.

    Not conjecture or hyperbole, folks, every last one of these fake corporate “local councils” are CORPORATIONS and every last one of their CORPORATE CEOs is on the take, getting paid by the World Economic Forum to grind us all down into the dirt and enslave and kill us.

    And sending all their ill-gotten gains along with YOUR RATE PAYMENTS into untraceable offshore bank accounts.

  17. We were doing this with Frankston council with Darren Bergworth , my place in 2021. Great to see it catching on.

  18. All these councils seem to be going the same way. Even the smaller country ones The managers all seem to be like mini Hitlers. .

  19. well to get these councilors and local govt bureaucrats to listen and do the right thing , find out where they all live, and send them letters about this fiasco, this does two things, A. it tells them your sentiments and importantly B. they know that you know where they live making them vulnerable, and probably not sleep to well at night.

  20. DOWN WITH ALL THE TYRANTS DESTROYING OUR FREEDOMS, RIGHTS, CHOICES, OUR RIGHT TO LIVE IN PEACE, FREEDOM AND HAPPINESS – THESE UBIQUITOUS TYRANTS ARE DESTROYING OUR LIVES AND OUR COUNTRY.
    DOWN WITH EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM – THIS IS SO SERIOUS.

  21. Just BTW, folks, recall that your Land Title for “your land” no longer exists, our fake corporate “governments” DESTROYED them all.

    How do you suppose THAT little stunt will be used to leverage the totalitarian tactics of our fake corporate “local councils”?

    We’ve got YEARS of this rolling tyrannical Globalist-led BS to wade through yet, folks.

  22. ALL THE NAMES AND PICTURES OF COUNCILERS AND THE BUEAROCRATS THAT ARE EMPLOYED BY THE COUNCIL SHOULD HAVE THIER IDENTITIES PUBLISHED SO THAT WHEN IT COMES TO OUR TURN TO WEILD THE SWORD WE WILL KNOW WHO TO LOOK FOR.

  23. Write to the C.E.O.Informing him Re Notification of trespass by your council.Then “please be advised that from this date xx/xx/xxALL(council employees entering the properties listed below,without my express WRITTEN consent will be charged with trespass.(property address). The above are subject to the Laws of trespass unless a CROWN WARRANT has been issued.The police will be called in the first instance and charges will be laid against the individual(s)
    Signed xxxxxxxxxxx
    Use your rights.The High Court of Australia has upheld your rights in “Plenty V Dillon” and several other cases. Do your research,it works against my Council

  24. Editor cairnsnews opened the article with – “… VICTORIAN councillors and their bureaucrat controllers are slow to read the rising anti-authoritarian sentiment across the West as expressed in the Trump revolution in the US…”

    Just to wax philosophical, folks, all of these things are positive signs of movement which has taken so SOOOOO long to manifest. This has been half a century in the making.

    But don’t be decieved, this rolling tyrannical BS has a LONG way to go yet before the Fat Lady sings.

    Expect these sold-out Treasonous corporate arseholes to double down and double down and double down again, because that’s exactly what they do. That, and set the heavily-armed granny-bashing child-molesting hired mercenary corporate neo-Nazi pigs onto you whenever they feel unsure of their mastery of the situation.

    Exactly as we saw at the Casey fiasco.

    And exactly as we WILL see now all across the country as these priveleged little corporate fiefdoms all get the urge to put the Useless Eaters back in their place.

    And don’t expect the “Sheriff” to help you out, because he’s paid by THEM and he wants to kill you just like they do.

    Maybe some more feisty little Hobbits like Obvious Bob can make a real difference here, swinging those Elven Blades and kicking Orcs in the nuts, at least to slow the corporate bastards down a bit until the framework of their tyranny is ultimately brought down and the guilty are all swinging by the neck.

    But that will have to get collective organic momentum to be effective. We’re talking hundreds of thousands, even millions, of people getting behind a single cohesive movement, folks. And that’s going to take longer than we’d like, years in fact.

    In any case, as Martin Armstrong has been consistently warning us, all this totalitarian Globalist BS won’t be over and done with until around 2032. And then we’ll finally be able to set about doing what needs to be done, all nice and legal-like, and only in the best POSSIBLE taste.

  25. A Slave has No Right to Property! Have People lost all understanding of what FREEDOM is? Have People no conception of their Rights as human being? “We the People” and “the Law of the Land” are not throw-away lines….. them mean Democracy! All “Local Government” in Australia is Fraud and the Fraudsters are thieves and traitors. Indict them! Put them in front of fair dinkum Juries and prosecute them! Trump them!!!!!

  26. This opposition should spread everywhere. Many councils are dictatorial bullies with a strong green/left bias. Rate payer’s need to rise up and say I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take council c**p any more
