NSW Liberals as agents of the WEF intend to wipe out cattle herd with mRNA jabs – where is the NFF?

Minister predicts foot and mouth and lumpyskin diseases could enter the Far North during wet season – what does he know that we don’t?
The NSW Government has taken another step towards fast tracking the world first mRNA vaccines for Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) and Lumpy Skin Disease, inking a deal with US biotechnology company Tiba Biotech.
Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional NSW Paul Toole said today marks an important milestone towards securing the vaccine technology that will protect Australia’s $28.7 billion livestock industry.
“The NSW Nationals in Government are taking the threat of FMD and Lumpy Skin Disease extremely seriously, and this milestone is another step forward in preparing for a potential outbreak,” Mr Toole said.
“I have now written to vaccine manufacturers to take up my challenge to develop both vaccines ready for use and manufacture in NSW by August 1 next year.
“COVID-19 demonstrated to us that all possible avenues in developing vaccines must be explored and we will leave no stone unturned.”
Minister for Agriculture Dugald Saunders said the agreement with Tiba Biotech gives NSW another path towards developing mRNA vaccines for FMD and Lumpy Skin Disease.
“It is critical that we develop mRNA vaccines for FMD and Lumpy Skin as quickly as possible to protect our State’s livestock sector,” Mr Saunders said.
“The threat of FMD is ongoing and there are concerns Lumpy Skin Disease could enter northern Australia this coming wet season, so it’s critical we continue to do what we can as quickly as we can.
“Current FMD vaccines use the virus itself, and there is yet to be an approved vaccine for use in Australia for Lumpy Skin Disease, so creating mRNA vaccines to combat either disease would be a game-changer for the industry.
“mRNA vaccines are cheaper and quicker to produce, highly effective and very safe.
“Because they are fully synthetic and do not require any animal or microbial products, they do not carry with them the same risks as traditionally derived vaccines.”
Tiba co-founder Peter McGrath said the company was pleased to be working in partnership with government, industry and researchers to protect Australia’s vital livestock industry and food security.
“Our next generation RNA technology is able to safely and efficiently deliver vaccines for both human and animal health needs and has demonstrated more practical storage requirements than existing RNA technologies,” Mr McGrath said.
Meat and Livestock Australia managing director Jason Strong said mRNA vaccines had additional benefits for the livestock sector.
“This type of vaccine technology may not require the longer testing and approval processes required for conventional vaccine development and importation as it does not use animal products,” Mr Strong said.
“That means we can use it to provide faster responses to outbreaks, enable eradication and return to freedom status – and market access – sooner.”
The pilot program is part of a $65 million investment from the NSW Government to prepare for and prevent exotic animal diseases, which brings the total investment in biosecurity this year alone to $229 million – the biggest biosecurity investment by a single jurisdiction on exotic pest and disease control.

Foot and mouth disease could become another scamdemic like Covid
Letter to the Editor
Once again the poor afflicted people of the ‘unlucky country’ face another beat up, this time it isn’t the Covid scamdemic, but foot and mouth animal virus.
Yes it is in Indonesia, but 800 miles of ocean separate us from it. Yes we should help them eradicate it. But no the only way we can get it is if it is deliberately introduced.
All political parties oppose restrictions on travel between here and there, but all are getting behind using this beat up to put more useless and expensive rules on cattle producers.
Just like the socialist criminals forced the useless and expensive electronic NLIS tracking on a industry that 99% of cattle producers rejected. But such Bankster owned, Judas goat entities like the NFF supported it and are now making ludicrous suggestions that livestock trucks be washed down after each consignment.
A strange thing happened back then. We had a panic over chemical “contamination” of meat which was the stalking horse used to force this impost.
But as soon as it was done, magic, no more contamination. Sounds like gun “massacres” pre-Port Arthur.
The National Party is running about pumping up the FMD hysteria. Anything that they are involved in has a strong odour of fish. From the destruction of the dairy industry onwards it is obvious they serve corporate and Schwab’s neo-racist goals.
All that they have achieved so far is to collapse cattle prices by 50% in a month, which our mostly foreign owned meat processor’s are loving all the way to the bank.
Labour loves it too as it may give them slightly lower food prices, leaving farmers once again subsidising the city consumers.
We just had 2 years of a successful COVID scamdemic, and now they are doing it again with FMD. Don’t get sucked in again.

What is Indonesia doing to stem the spread of FMD?
While FMD sits squarely on the Papua New Guinea border with Indonesia, there are no reports of it entering the country yet. The Indonesian government launched a nationwide rollout of vaccinations in mid-June. It has also restricted the movement of livestock with the help of police and the army, launched a campaign to educate farmers on the risks of FMD, and a number of infected livestock have been slaughtered.
As of 26 July 663,919 livestock have been vaccinated, 6,275 animals have been slaughtered and 3,872 have died.
Last Tuesday, a spokesman for Indonesia’s FMD taskforce, Professor Wiku Adisasmito, told an online press conference that vaccination efforts were being hampered by a lack of supply and people to administer vaccines, as well as difficulties getting to farmers and keeping the vaccine at the correct temperature.
“In this case, the government will continue to evaluate, coordinate, and improve performance so that the vaccination coverage is higher,” he said.
According to the Red Cross, the government has stated 30 million vaccines are needed. But so far only 3m vaccines have been secured, with an additional 1m expected to arrive in Indonesia from Australia soon. The Indonesian government is planning to produce vaccines locally, with production expected to start by the end of August.
Rondong said controls restricting the movement of cattle between islands had been weak, with the spread likely exacerbated by Idul Adha, a major Islamic holiday on 10 July which involves the sacrifice of animals and sharing the meat with the poor.
What is Australia doing?
Enhanced biosecurity controls have been put in place at Indonesia’s borders with a particular focus on Bali, according to a spokesperson for Australia’s department of agriculture. The controls include disinfectant foot mats for departing passengers and awareness raising materials.
Both the Australian and New Zealand governments have ramped up biosecurity controls domestically, including strict screening of inbound mail and freight from Indonesia.
The Australian government has committed A$5m (US$3.46m) to support Indonesia’s response, as well as mitigation measures in Timor-Leste and Papua New Guinea where the disease has not yet been detected. The money will fund testing, personnel and logistics support for the distribution of vaccine.
Are farmers being compensated?
The government is preparing a compensation scheme for affected farmers, with Rp10,000,000 (about A$960) for each forced slaughter. But a spokesperson for the Red Cross said there were concerns this was not enough for farmers to recoup their loss, with cattle often as valuable as farmers’ houses.
Windsor said that unlike the FMD outbreak in the United Kingdom, where livestock were culled to get the disease under control, forced slaughter is difficult in south-east Asian countries given livestock are the “bank accounts for smallholder farmers”, and also a crucial source of nutrition for rural Indonesian children.
Two weeks ago, Windsor visited two farms in Indonesia where animals had been infected with FMD. In one farm of 18 cows, milk production had dropped from an average of 250 litres a day to 15 litres.
“It has a massive impact on productivity for the farms,” he said. “And they are very concerned for the animals suffering from the disease.” – The Guardian
Albanese to include local government in National Cabinet
by Alison Ryan
UN/WEF/NWO coming in through back door
Local Government representation must be kicked out by our VOTES this election. Local Government is hiding in the parties and touting itself as a third level of government, unlawfully outside the jurisdiction of the highest law in our land, that magnificent guardian of our personal freedoms, the Australian Commonwealth Constitution. Let’s vote Local Government, their activists, their ignorant [or] traitorous MP enablers, who have made promises to Local Government to work in a national capacity, out of power.
We must vote out the parties in this election who have forsaken the Australian Commonwealth Constitution and who are actively working with the Local Government Groups to bring in what is another form of governance, if we want to live free.
Go to the websites of the parties and read their Media Releases. Are any espousing Federalism? Is it according to the Australian Commonwealth Constitution enacted in 1901 at Federation? Is their Federalism a “grass roots” democracy preaching Local Government and Regionalism = Nationalism? Or does their democracy rely on the powers of a parliament conforming in its structure to the Australian Commonwealth Constitution of 1901? Are any parties wanting to cut out State Government? What will this then be replaced with?
Don’t be sold out to the Liberals, Labor, Nationals, Greens, or any other party that is preaching a new way of government. Only the Australian Commonwealth Constitution has the freedom safeguards in it to stand against the advancing army of the UN/WEF/NWO.
We have all had a taste of the globalist powers. Did their rules and regulations allow you to get on with your life and give prosperity to you, your children, and your country?
No. Millions have suffered and died from the imposed EUA mandates and regulations.
Whilst Australians have been getting on with their busy lives, our MPs have been outsourcing power of governance to non- elected “experts”, and to anyone who wants to get into the political system via Local Government and Regionalism streams.
At this point in time, our guardian Australian Commonwealth Constitution has been trashed, and we are on a soviet-council pathway to internationalist control.
Let’s look at the evidence. Look up these links. We are “nothing” to the new power structure that is forming here in Australia. God is with-holding still its total power, but we can see it forming. We are to resist this beast. We are to set ourselves AGAINST this beast system. We are to be vigilant and to know our enemy and his policies.
The Liberal/National Government of Scott Morrison has created their new NATIONAL FEDERATION REFORM COUNCIL. This is their National Council, a nice sounding term for the under-belly inter-national soviet congress that it really is – just being oiled ready to slip into their World Federation of States when their time comes. Think of their WHO Constitution and their WHO Treaty which is being laid for all nations. Oh, dear, is this why former Liberal Foreign Affairs Minister, Julie Bishop, let Daniel Andrews call out Victoria as a Strong City – remember city is the new word for the old-fashioned shire council? Yes, all this has been planned. This is the Federation “reform” spoken of by Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull and was promised to continue through the old COAG.
Our Australian Commonwealth Constitution is the highest law of the land. It overrides any States laws. Local Government is controlled by State Governments. They have the power to establish and abolish all Local Government bodies. There are several hundred Local Government organisations in Australia. All Local Governments are established by acts of the State Parliaments. Right now, Local Government advocacy groups and Regional Australia advocacy groups are doing an end-run around the Australian Commonwealth Constitution. There is no Local Government nor Regional Government jurisdiction in the Australian Commonwealth Constitution. Not granted by the people of Australia. Period.
Let’s look at the evidence. Look up these links. These groups are destroying the people’s Australian Commonwealth Constitution with the help of your elected representatives, the politicians.

Agforce rolls over supporting zero emissions to wipe out its farmer members
by R J Lee
It’s now official. Agforce once Queensland’s agricultural and pastoral representative body supposedly created to protect farming from megalomaniacal governments has again rolled over this time supporting the totally discredited theory of Al Gore’s climate change.
Ever since Agforce accepted government funding about 15 years ago the once representative farmer’s lobby group has become a puppet of the socialist Queensland Labor Party.
The climate cultists and the UN wan to wipe out farming as a part of their depopulation strategy
Agforce’s membership has dwindled to just over 5000 over the past decade largely because of its dalliance with the socialist policies of the Labor Party and ineffectiveness in negotiations to keep the Marxists out of food production.
Agforce simply toes the National Farmers Federation/Liberal Party nexus line with major issues such as so-called climate change, a part of the UN sponsored attack on farming world-wide based on the Agenda 21 now 30 environmental depopulation agreement signed in Rio by all governments in 1992.
Now Agforce CEO Michael Guerin says agriculture doesn’t want a free pass from its responsibility to the planet.
Mr Guerin is not intelligent enough to understand that agriculture’s primary responsibility to the planet is to feed it without the Albatross of United Nations depopulation plots aided and abetted by ‘governments’ such as the LNP and the ALP.
By 2050 if the zero emission target is met, plant life will cease to exist because it needs carbon dioxide and lots of it. A farmer would have to be delirious to aim for any reduction of CO2 at today’s levels let alone in 30 years time. Smart farmers should be making CO2 generators so they and their crops can survive, especially in a place like Australia with almost zero emissions now.
He says AgForce wants agriculture to lead Australia’s charge towards net zero emissions by 2050, not be exempt from it, and be recognised for the positive contribution it makes.
“Agriculture is a strong part of the climate change solution and is ready to take part in the conversation with Australia’s science community and political leaders to ensure an evidence-based approach was implemented to achieving our targets,” Mr Guerin said.
“It will be incredibly difficult for Australia to achieve its climate change targets if agriculture is excluded from our nation’s goal to reach zero emissions.”
Agriculture is doomed under the LNP/ALP/UN triumvirate using zero emissions as an ideological weapon
There it is Agforce members and to the remaining majority of the farming network. If you believe this hocus pocus you should not be involved in farming.
The only climate change the world is suffering is a deliberate man-made one that is being used as a weapon of war by Russia and China with the yanks coming a poor third.
We have been in an unofficial war with parts of the world for years and since at least Biden, using massive, proven beyond any doubt voter fraud, stole the US election in November.
The first rule of war is to know that you’re in one. The second rule of war is to delineate who is a friend and who is a foe and that, of course, in a covert area is very difficult to do.
It’s not just information warfare, it’s really 5th Generation Unrestricted Warfare.
We have lived the past several years being unrelentingly strafed by Unrestricted Warfare. The most challenging part of this is getting your head around it and achieving situational awareness, especially because very often, the enemy is not only domestic but it has also parked itself inside your head or inside the heads of your loved ones via unceasing propaganda (ABC), such that perhaps your friends and family have been conquered by the enemy and they are acting on behalf of the enemy and they don’t even know it.
This is a global, covert World War IV in 5th Generational Warfare. The primary means of it are informational, cyber and psychological, which means that most of the terrain is human, not physical…There is some physicality but most of it is human terrain.
Under the Agforce strategy and a dubious LNP federal government, farmers are facing a bleak future and woe betide the population should they be stupid enough to support the NWO Labor Party.
Zero emission nonsense will plough farmers and pastoralists six inches under. Until the agricultural sector wakes up that the UN is driving these depopulation policies under the guise of the Agenda 21/30 Treaty then they should pack up and live on a beach.
“War is when your government tells you who the enemy is. Revolution is when you figure it out.”
Plandemic now affecting our food growers and prices go through the roof as crops are ploughed in
from ABC Rural
International travel restrictions are not only costing Queensland’s horticulture industry millions, they are also impacting the mental health of fruit and vegetable growers, a new report has revealed.
Key points:
- Crop losses from labour shortages have more than doubled in the last month, costing farmers more than $43 million
- Nearly 25 per cent of growers report a decline in mental health and physical health
- Two-thirds of growers report financial stress and some are at risk of foreclosure
Crop losses from the labour shortage have more than doubled in the last month, now totalling more than $43 million, according to the National Farmer’s Federation’s Lost Crop register.
Backpackers once came to Australia to help farmers by harvesting crops. The attack on the food chain in the US has started in earnest with Biden. Now the LNP Government is killing our food chain by blithely following the plandemic dictates of the UN. Farmers are hurting badly through a lack of workers and food prices are going through the roof
Now, a new analysis by peak body Growcom has found 25 per cent of growers are reporting an associated decline in mental health, with 75 per cent experiencing financial stress.
On Queensland’s Scenic Rim, vegetable grower Mitch Brimblecombe knows the situation well. Still dealing with drought, he now faces another challenge.
“We were about to walk into a field, and I rang my labour contractor and said, ‘Right we need a few extra people,’ and he said, ‘Oh, I’ve got no one.'”
With international borders shut, the backpacker workforce that Australia’s fruit and vegetable industry rely on to pick their produce has disappeared.
So too has millions of dollars in income for farmers.
“There’s a lot of growers who haven’t registered or thought about their crop losses because they don’t want to think about it,” Mr Brimblecombe said.
“But that $43 million — [it] could be double that to be honest.”
Growcom have been processing the other information reported by growers on the Lost Crop Register.
“In many cases farmers are harvesting crops themselves, all through the night in some instances, it’s taking a toll on their physical health,” said Growcom’s Richard Shannon.
The Growcom analysis also found a number of growers reporting they were at risk of foreclosure.
“Watching their produce go to waste, that in many cases they’ve been looking after for 12 months or more — it’s their livelihoods that are at stake here,” Mr Shannon said.
Mr Brimblecombe said that the COVID-induced worker shortage was having a compounding effect.
“Certainly having all those factors come into it,” he said.
“You’ve got drought, bad prices, no labour to harvest your crop — it all takes a toll.”
The ‘quarantine bottleneck’
Industry advocates say they want federal and state governments to increase incentives and expand quarantine.
“The Federal Government will tell us that there is 20,000 or so Pacific Islanders with a job offer and visa to enter Australia and do this work, but the bottleneck is quarantine,” Mr Shannon said.
A spokesman for the Queensland government said that it continues to offer $1,500 payments to people who take up jobs in agriculture, that’s on top of up to $6,000 the Federal Government is offering to help with relocation costs.
But as of this week, just 93 people had applied for the Queensland scheme.
Mr Shannon acknowledges that the pandemic has highlighted the over-reliance on backpacker labour.
He said now was an opportunity to look at long-term labour supply.
One idea being floated is an industry-specific visa that would allow people to come and work during harvest, then return home.
“That’s an idea and a program that’s worked really well with Pacific Island nations,” Mr Shannon said.
More people seeking help
Dr Kirsten Hunter has been practising as a clinical psychologist in regional Queensland for 20 years, based in Toowoomba.
“There can be a culture in the agricultural world of not reaching out for psychological support,” Dr Hunter said.
“Of course the suicide risk amongst the male rural population is a bit scary, very scary.”
Farm bodies and LNP stop quad bike imports devastating livestock industries
Letter to the Editor
Charlie Armstrong
CEO
Farmsafe
July 20, 2020
Hi Charlie, I am contacting you from the depths of Cape York Peninsula where quads reign supreme. Horses are now seldom used. Helicopters are sometimes used but are no longer cost effective on the Peninsula. Bull catchers are another feature for mustering. Drones in North Queensland are not an option and never will be.
Quad bikes play an integral part of northern mustering and have relatively few serious accidents in comparison to other farm injuries
On the dusty plains of Nyngan NSW a drone could be used for mustering quiet European cattle or coastal dairy cows or perhaps even sheep provided the pilot was capable and possessed stock mustering experience and the drone had at least 4 to 5 hours endurance..
But in spite of the best efforts of the NFF, Agforce, LNP and Farmsafe you will never rid us of quad bikes. No matter that new Chinese bikes will have dangerous roll bars fitted they are easy to remove with an angle grinder. The tragedy of it all is that popular Honda, Suzuki and Polaris recognise that ROPS of any design make their bikes unsafe and consequently will stop selling their bikes in Australia.
OK for Nyngan where its too dry for trees to grow but on Cape York after a decade or two of communist Labor rule the lack of hot fires has allowed unprecedented vegetation thickening making stock grazing difficult.
Trying to navigate this scrub that used to be open plains with a dangerous vertical protrusion on a bike and getting hooked up on trees will cause accidents of unprecedented proportions.
Yeah as you said there could be logs in the long grass, but they don’t worry us because we burn the country before we muster or catch bulls then we can see any logs, or ant beds, or washouts, or holes, or stumps, or rocks or blackfellas with spears, which are far more dangerous than a quad bike without ROPS.
What we could do is bring a few of our quads with bullbars to NSW and Victoria open country and teach all your men how to ride one.
That would save a lot of accidents.
Kind regards
BB, Coen
