Interesting article, but remember all churches, temples etc going back thousands of years ago we rebuilt on ley lines. Also this part of England is famous for witchcraft. If you do some digging around on the internet you will find plenty information. The black arts have never gone away, they are still around world wide. As for the inscriptions that would be for protection to prevent negative entities causing harm.
As I said churches are built on key lines, it is a standard practice, that ground too, would previously have had a pagan temple, because when Christianity arrived, the church leaders kicked out the pagans and took over the sites, usually destroying the original temple. That happened on a world wide scale. The pagans knew all about ley lines and that is why they built on them, however they were not using them for negative purposes. No, those people worshiped nature. The creators of Christianity were also fully aware of the power of Ley lines, that is pretty obvious. Remember Christianity was anti nature. It is no surprise to anyone with any sniff of knowledge on the subject.

How wonderful is this man for stepping up to help needy children and families. Much respect to him and those that step up to assist. One of my predictions for 2021 was celebrities stepping up to help those in need.

So they set up home in Narrabundah many years ago and have become a popular attraction in the area. It is fantastic to get up close to this particular peacock at Willow Tree nursery in Pialligo. The cute little chap was turning on the charm as I took a few photos. Then he started to strut off along the car park and turned around to look at me, as if to say follow me. Naturally I followed and got a short video and some photos. He was a very obliging little chap.
You can download the book on PDF, but I recommend buying the book. I had to order the book from England as my bookstore was out of copies. JLL also discusses the archons in this book, that’s the nasty energetic beings that I call the shit stains of the universe 🤣🤣 He calls them failed abortions, which is actually close to the fact. Because they were not meant to be, it was an mistake by Sophia that created them.
Understanding the message JLL puts out here is important, as we are supposedly drawing closer to the consummation of the ages. Individuals need to sort out their spiritual goal plan of heading back to the pleroma or the spiritual home of humanity.
You can find more information on his website which is on the hand out booklet that I gave to everybody that came to me for a reading from 2006 up until January 2020. However that information is also on my blog. You can read about archons on John’s website too. They can be overcome but that takes practice as he says. Think of them like a dangerous and destructive virus or a software virus, these entities don’t always fall away from us at physical death by the way. They can still be attached to a person when they go into the spirit world (which by the way is not our home that is the Pleroma). The reason being is that is their home turf as it is created by the Demiurge. Wetiko is the Native American name for them. They are in short a non organic life form but created by accident.
Anyway I hope some people out there will read the book, even if you borrow it from a public library, it is worth the read.
UPDATE: 23May 2023, please have a look at this link from an earlier post in 2022 about the human body being a physical tomb for the spirit and soul. We are said to be dead while in the physical body, that is spiritually dead because we are cut off from pure spirit, our higher self and with the true divine spirit.
This angers me so much and knowing full well, many people in care do not have very nutritious food and are often kept sedated to make things easier for the staff to manage. What quality of life is that? I have met many aged care workers over the years doing readings, and I find it heart breaking when on the odd occasion, I have notice abuse in the cards. Not by my clients, but people they work with, some of these clients were afraid to complain about things they saw because it would cost them their jobs. And this is also covering homes for disabled people being assaulted and abused.
Older people were brought up not to complain, don’t forget that these current old people were children lived through the Great Depression and world war 2, so they had to put up with hardship. They shouldn’t have to put up with this in old age, after working all their lives, including military service. However many of them in care have to sell their homes to get into care, and rightfully expect good care ( others have to depend on government run homes, the sort you dread your loved ones going into). That is thousand of dollars of hard earned money that bought their homes. They paid their taxes and worked very hard to provide for their families. Hoping to be able to leave an inheritance for their loved ones, and this is how they are rewarded.
Don’t think this is going to change either, it is a big industry generating millions of dollars a year. No way do the nursing home industry want to lose their cash cows. Many homes operate with minimal staff, but right now during this pandemic it is a skeleton staff, so the staff are stretch to the max trying to do their jobs. Not exactly a win win situation.
Please bear in mind though many people that work as care givers love doing their jobs. It is a very difficult job and has a high burnout rate too. It can be a heart breaking and unthanked job. My parents in law were in a really good nursing home and were well cared for. I am very grateful for that and my father is in a good nursing home and one of the best, that is Covid free all year, due to good health protocols.
It has been a sad and long journey for us over the past few months watching poor little Daisy get sicker and sicker. We just had that inkling yesterday that something was going to happen.
We had been taking it in turn to sleep beside her at night over the weekend and praying that she wouldn’t get any worse. Yesterday though, hubby and I had to duck out to the shop to get more cat milk and liquid protein cat food. But when we got home our son said Daisy was wandering about looking for us. Her breathing was very laboured too.
We could hear and feel her chest was rattling as she started having respiratory problems, so we rang the vet and said this is it, we are on our way. They are only five minutes away, literally.
Sure enough the vet said yes it’s time. We were so upset at her going so quickly. Funny how after knowing she doesn’t have long to live, one is just never prepared emotionally.
Daisy is a strong little kitty girl, her heart was strong but her tiny little body was so weak and frail. But Daisy put up a fight to the end. I told the vet , that we have always called her our little Boadicea. As she has always been a strong girl and a fighter for survival.
When I bought Daisy 17 years ago in a pet shop. I didn’t know she was only four weeks old and some evil human took her away from her mother way too soon, just to make a lousy buck. When we took her to our vet we were informed that she was only four weeks old. Daisy had eaten some big kitty food by accident and it caused an intestinal blockage, so I had to feed her watered down kitten milk to help her. The vet said she may not survive, but she did. Two weeks later I had three kittens give to me to find homes for.
Now at this stage we had two dogs and three cats. Daisy being the new baby. But Lo and behold we ended up keeping the ginger boy, that’s our beautiful Garfield. He was just a few weeks older than Daisy.
Now when Daisy first set eyes on Garfield she walked over to him and belter the crap out of him. Poor little Garfield didn’t know what hit him. He never had that from his two sisters.
That set in motion a life long shit stir from Garfield. Every night for years an orange and grey furry knot rolled up and down the hallway and into the family room. Hissing and yowling, we had to keep out of the way or get our ankles scratched in the crossfire, lol.
I can’t believe that both of them are gone now, within 12 months of each other. All of this was going through my mind at the vet yesterday as we were preparing to put our beautiful little girl to sleep. As she slipped away , I saw a white vortex open up on her body and could see her sort of being sucked out of her body.
Next there was a purple colour over the vortex that was opened on her body and suddenly she shot off and the vortex just disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was so surreal but sad too, my baby girl was gone.
I held her little body wrapped in one of her soft blankets for a while and then hubby and I left the vet’s office rather tearful. We love and miss our Empress Daisy so much. There will never be an other quite like her. But of course every animal or fur baby is special and wonderful, so full of love and innocence how can one not love every single one of them.
Oh on a final note, we used to joke that Daisy kept a quarter of a brick in her handbag to slug her brother Garfield with if the mood took her. 🤣🤣
http://alexfulfordclairvoyantmedium.blogspot.com/2020/10/goodbye-miss-daisy-empress-mouse-dolly.html
Our beloved little Russian Blue kitty,Daisy has just been diagnosed with cancer. She has been sneezing blood for a few months. Finally after having her at the vet two weeks ago for rhinoscopy, the results came back yesterday as we had feared. A nasty carcinoma in her nose, which has eaten away at the bone in her nose.
She is refusing to eat for the past few days and being a tiny cat there is not much of her. Somehow I feel she won’t be with us much longer. As she is only having water, kitten milk or a kitty melting soup and only the liquid from the soup.
So at present it is palliative care every day with pain relief and TLC. Daisy, or the Empress Mouse Dolly as we lovingly call her, is 17 years old and has had a very good life with lots of love.
We just can’t bear to be without her. This time last year we lost her brother Garfield so I guess it is just part of life. But it is still painful knowing that her time with us is very limited.
Her poor sister Ruby, won’t understand what is happening and that one day she will be the only fur baby left. I do not expect Daisy to be with us by Christmas sadly.
The nose bleeds are still happening even though she had the carcinoma removed, she sneezes violently all day with discharge of mucus and blood. Gosh it is heart breaking watching this happening to our dear little girl.
Notice in the article the comment on this man being allowed to go overseas to Spain and The UK. He recovered from the virus in April and then allowed to travel overseas, April to August and was Covid positive on returning home. 🤔 Australians were not allowed to by April.
NOTE: so far there are 13899k hits on this prediction on my old blog. Please look at older predictions and see the accuracies of those other predictions too, both Australian and world predictions. I do both separately every year in October.
****
Whoa this looks like a crap year ahead. The world is in a bad shape, as well we know, but this is only it starting to have a financial bite on everyone.
In the UK, I see a security scare in Buckingham Palace. A possible breech of security at the gates. The palace also need to recheck their general security procedures or a major embarrassment is on the cards.
There are more on going struggles with health around the world as expected, especially in the UK. People are fearful and angry.
I see more health agreements being made and including the USA, Trump will have to stand his ground here.
I feel there will be false results in a cure for Covid, this can be very dangerous, not all is going well with the research for a cure. I feel there is a lot of deception involved here. Be very wary and do not rush into getting the vaccine or you will be sorry.
Homelife is affected for many people in the UK, the government seems to be encroaching on their privacy due to covid. This raises privacy issues with the public. But remember if you are following the rules you won't have a problem, simples!
UK, USA , Canada: People are feeling the balance of civil liberties and lifestyle is out of kilter. This is leading to more civil unrest and demonstrations. The government may also underestimate the backlash from the public as they try to get things under control.
World governments clearly do not have this covid spreading under control. New ideas need to be presented and uniform world wide.
Wales and England, have more unrest with protestors, this may also include racial tension. As there will be African youths involved in antisocial behaviour. Where are the parents of these youths?
Hardship and homelessness problems over the winter months in the UK. I see some form of homeless centres, but they are not like the usual ones. The solutions offered are way too slow and ineffective which leads to more deaths over winter. Government being unaccountable yet again.
The cost of heating homes in the UK goes up meaning many cannot afford to heat their homes. Some will resort to theft/crime to help make ends meet because the government has let them down.
Italy: Sudden political upheaval in parliament, this is due to recent changes. However the politicians seem confused as to what they should be doing and they may need to close parliament briefly to work out the issues. How embarrassing! The situation becomes an absolute shambles
LONDON: I see a red double decker bus, I would say symbolises London's public transport system. This looks like cutting services and thus causing industrial action. No winners here.
2021 looks to be yet another year of uncertainty as summer rolls around in the northern hemisphere, more changes are implemented.
I see an increase of police and military on the streets of Europe. People seem to be on edge and have had enough of the suffering of 2020, as it drags on into 2021. Not an easy time for anyone as hard economic times are starting to affect more and more people.
Home security will be the most important concern for many people worldwide in 2021, and rightly so. Up goes the crime rate along with unemployment.
There is a heavy darkness covering the world in 2021 and people are frightened, the times are getting desperate and this is the vibe that is in the air. Please try to stay calm and do not put yourself in harms way. Take this message onboard for your own safety!
India: More flooding, the cricket though is the thing that will get peoples backs up. I feel there is something going on here, possible cheating, corruption and questionable deals/contracts/agreements.
Canada: I see J Trudeau in the spotlight, it feels like his term in office wont be for much longer. Something is happening and I do not see him staying in office, he will hand over to someone else.
Celebrities' helping the poor, however not all are doing this for true humanitarian purposes. It is good publicity for some.
UPDATE: 4 October 2020
This was written on October 1st but has been in draft, the red bus thing was in the news this morning 😳 I am going to be working on finishing my predictions today or tomorrow at the latest. I am very busy at present so this page will get updated within 24 hours hopefully. Work takes me away from this often so please be patient. 😻
UPDATE: 8 October 2020 2.15pm
I had another pot shot at the cards today, not easy. As I have not really been in the mood to do this, but hey it's been a crap year, lol.
Trump is in for more distress next year, he needs to come down hard on the lefties. He is trying to help the US to get back on its feet. However others are making the job difficult. Mr Trump needs to be battle ready in 2021 things are set to ramp up against him and the American way of life.
I feel the US courts need a shake up as there are political factions that do not hold the country's core values at heart. Trump's selection for the high court as you would have already guessed will be seen as offensive to the democrats, Wah wah, talk about cry babies when they don't get what they want. How undemocratic are these people? This is why the US is screwed.
This is not going to be an easy task because it is deep rooted and many take a generation or two to fix.
It is a good year for car manufacturing in the US and other nations will look to the US for guidance to bring back or introduce car manufacturing. This is the new electric cars.
I see Mr Trump being wild with rage next year. Something or someone is deliberately pushing his buttons. Expect fireworks as he is ready to kick some ass. I feel this is a domestic issue.
Looks like many countries around the world trying to get along better next year. However I feel what is seen to be a truce is nothing but a smoke screen on China's part to avoid further scrutiny.
The western media and some non western media in the spotlight because people have rightfully lost trust in them. Mainly USA/ Canada, UK/ Eire, Europe. People want factual information!
World leaders, especially the European, UK, Ireland and US/Canada are struggling to cope with the public distrust and protests with the current health crisis. The WHO are also in the spotlight as people no longer trust them either, add Bill Gates and his toxic foundation to that list. This does not phase Gates one bit. He will just keep on pushing his agenda. But, here we are seeing more nations distrusting him after his African fiasco.
Expect the WHO to step up its game in the face of public opposition. Things will turn very ugly and we will see the military and police being deployed to the streets worldwide more often to combat unrest. People cannot cope with more lockdowns and the governments need to heed the warnings.
Boris Johnson must take care as his popularity is on the wane. He will struggle for popularity and control next year up to summer time. His actions may come back to bite him.
With the Brexit situation, this seems like people getting a raw deal. The people of Ulster (Northern Ireland) are terrified of a return to the dark days. They want this situation fixed. I do not see a satisfactory outcome from this. This is all about money and not human lives sadly.
I see soccer back in the news again, however there is ongoing financial downturn that needs to be looked at. This will be due to not enough people going to the matches or they are not permitted to attend the matches being played. This will affect the income for the players.
As we all expected it is a year of confusion for everyone and economic downturn including sporting and public events. But we all knew this was happening, we just have to live with it.
I still feel an air of deception worldwide and it will be hard work controlling world events, and world leaders will resort to drastic measures to keep control.
Stay right away from protests if you know what is good for you. It is going to turn nasty.

Australia sees the birth of a new iconic brand of swimwear this year. It is something of a modern take on the rash tops and bottoms of the 90's. There is something special about this garment, but it is set to take Australia by storm. It is designed with skin cancer in mind and covering more of the body.
This swimwear has something natural about it, I don't know if it is the fabric or what it is. Perhaps enhancing our outdoor lifestyle.
Did you know over one thousand people die of melanoma every year in Australia? You can even get it in obscure places like between your toes.
Australia is definitely becoming more independent next year, this however is a gradual change as we distance ourselves from China economically. We will become more focused on our economy and home grown business from now on.
I see a surge in cafe's as people go out more and buy a cup of tea or coffee, which injects money into the local economy. Good on you! This helps business stay afloat and provides work.
Crowd control on the beaches using mounted police as people are in a rush to get back to normal. Er, there isn't going to be a normal folks.
I see people pushing forward after this year's (2020) ongoing disasters with bushfires and then Covid hitting. People just want to get out in the fresh air. However I feel there will be tensions rising with the crowds. Watch out for angry people becoming aggressive or violent. Keep your distance from angry people. Also child safety is a major thing this coming summer, keep a watchful eye on your children in regards to attempted abductions.
July seems to be the month of legal action and court cases. The voice of the people demands to be heard. Gee I can just imagine the " I know my rights" brigade banging the war drums.
I again urge people to keep their distance with this crowd.
Centrelink: I feel Scott Morrison's government may have to lift the rate of benefits again, as not to do so is going to invite more crime and violence. People need a liveable welfare payment so they can eat healthy, and pay bills such as utilities and rent. So it is wise of the government to do so.
Update: I feel age pensioners will still be suffering here, I do not see enough help for them and these people have paid tax from when they left school. How unfair is this? I feel there will also be some harsher welfare restrictions in 2021. This will raise anger in many people.
New business opportunities for Australian business. I get the feeling of a "go it alone" as many will try to avoid doing trade with China with the current climate. Some businesses will actually be able to do this successfully where others still depend on off shore manufacturing. We will get by, but remember this is a slow process and cannot be done overnight. So please be patient.
Textiles seems to be an issue next year too, it feels like restrictions and in some cases being unable to get hold of fabric or goods.
The death of a famous tv personality is going to take Australians by shock. I feel this could be Brian Henderson, as this was the face that I saw looking at the cards. A large chunk of Australian tv history is gone with this sad passing.
NOTE: I am posting this in instalments just now, as one of my world predictions (Red London buses) just hit the news this morning, so watch this space for updates within the next 24 hours. I am really busy at present and need to finish this ASAP.
Ok, I am back 4 October 2020
First and foremost, people need to stop over spending. I see children suffering with lack of food, clothes and basic needs. Their parents are being careless in spending and end up in debt. This is preventable in many cases. This has a flow on effect to the charities who will be further stretched to the limit as there will not be enough to go around.
This will be no walk in the park for the charities or the public, in fact it will cause a lot of stress and heartache, so stop and think, before trying to keep up with the Jones's. A person can lose their job in a heartbeat.
Major credit card debts next year, when will people learn?
I do feel the government is a tad too optimistic and naïve for a financial recovery next year. I would say more like a ball park number like three years roughly.
Cinemas are opening again, however there may be limited choice in movies at the start due to films going straight to Netflix this year, rest assured they will catch up. But something will be different with films and the viewing experience not just limiting the seating. There is something else being implemented along with this.
I see some rescue packages implemented by the Australian government for more businesses, but remember this money has to be paid back to the banks, as the government has to borrow the money so that means a longer recovery from the depression.
I see Australian military stepping up again, this may be reservists helping out again. This is a two pronged initiative by the government. It is helping out in areas where there is some shortages and also it is a public morale booster. This may even assist in crop picking, road works etc, but this will be rolled out in key areas. Good on you service people, that step up to help out. Much respect to all of you 😃
Summer 2021 in many cases will be old fashioned stay at home and play in the garden, with a few trips out to the park, the beach or places of interest. You would be surprised at how much fun a kid can have in the back yard. Older kids though need more stimulating things to do, but need to get out and about as the government permits. Boy that's a tough one to keep teenagers entertained on a budget. Good luck parents, you need to be inventive, even the museum or out door activities.
Motor racing will be back, but it may be modified for spectators. I think sports like cricket and football will stay very limited for a little while next year too. Perhaps a small crowd staggered through the seats and a police presence which will be more vigilant than usual.
Security needs tightening around the prime minister, I do feel there is a slight security breach. He will be ok though.
I see a nostalgic event with Australian tv next year, I see the channel 9 logo and see Bert Newton connected to this. This has a nice nostalgic feel to it. Perhaps reruns of old Bert Newton shows or such like.
One other thing I feel will happen next year is help for unemployed youths. This could be opening up TAFE's to vocational training to get the youths trained up in skills a this area has been ignored for so long and, substituting the Australian youth with cheap overseas labour higher.
That is no way to build a strong nation and having to depend on overseas workers for cheapness. To me this is a national disgrace. It says the government holds no value of our young people and the nation. I recall Labor doing this in the early 1980's, chucking the youths of Australia on the scrap heap.

Wow, How bloody immature is this minister for health. This puts Australia in a rather embarrassing position internationally. Not a comment from the Queensland premier either, in regards to this offensive behaviour. That is downright rude and obnoxious, clearly not the people that should hold public office.
http://raypeat.com/articles/articles/water.shtml
This is a very interesting article and quite important information. I tick many of the boxes in this with very painful legs, high blood pressure etc.
I had tagged the article on my computer sometime ago and just noticed it tonight and thought it is important information to share.
This is a list of predictions from 2013, but there are other psychic experiences that are not on this list.
This is only world predictions and Australian predictions.
I am just about to start the 2021 predictions and will tack the links to them on here once they are posted.
I did not seriously decide to do predictions until 2014. I honestly; had never thought about doing them or knew that I had this ability until one day I gave it a try. The results speak for themselves and this is not an easy thing to do. Not all psychics or clairvoyants can do this.

JULIE BISHOP QIUTS AS FOREIGN MINISTER
AUSTRALIA 2017AUSTRALIA 2013
So much is different this springtime, the ACT government in Canberra has had to change the plans for Floriade. this year for the first time. The event normally runs from the third week of September to the third week of October.
Sadly all our spring shows have been postponed and we have alternative arrangements happening. The Floriade team have decided to share the flowers throughout town and place colourful displays in major areas sharing the floral delights.
Personally I think all the town parks would have been a better choice, but perhaps because they are not locked at night it poses a risk of vandalism. However that could still happen in the streets too.
I just think people enjoy a walk in the park with loved ones and our town parks are big enough for social distancing anyway. Not to mention the beautiful man made lakes in each park. People don’t get the time to look at the flowers in the small beds in a suburban shopping centre or on a roadside but in a park setting they do.
People are in a hurry going about their daily business to have the time to stop and look at the flowers unlike in a park. Parks are more peaceful and make us slow down to appreciate what is there. Therefore a much better setting to do annually. The event has become way too commercial over the years and overwhelming when just held in Commonwealth park in the city.
The flower beds are amazing to look at and so beautiful. My favourite place for spring flowers displays is Tulip Tops garden, which is just outside Canberra heading towards Sydney. Sadly it is not open this year either due to the current pandemic.
So this year for me it is taking comfort in my garden, enjoying my own bulbs and planting some drought tolerant flowers to add a splash of colour. I bought some Gazania to plant in full sun yesterday. These plants can take over if one is not vigilant. They will just about grow in concrete.
I know that I am taking a risk with them. However with the cost of watering the garden skyrocketing these days, it is a viable solution for colour. They can work in with my Osteospermum daisies and Agapanthus as they will tolerate hot dry conditions. The house across from me has a nice swarm of Gazania and Osteospermum, so it will look nice to have a colourful display opposite.
There is nothing like the joy of gardening, it is so relaxing and rewarding. I didn’t get into gardening until 1995. It has been a mainstay in my life, to touch base with nature ever since. I would love an English county garden but in the extremely hot summers in Canberra that is a lot of water and time. So one must be creative in making a desirable equivalent that won’t shrivel up in the hot sun. So that’s where flowers such as Cosmos, Seaside daisies, Scabiosa, Agapanthus, Gazania, Osteospermum, roses and native flowers come in handy.
Lol, there are times when a scorched earth policy has come to mind when the garden has become unruly. But it is just a case of pulling out the ones you don’t want and careful choice of replacements. I have a massive problem with Ivy at present. I love the stuff, but it is now a banned plant in Canberra because it is so invasive and destructive. I am trying everything to kill mine off and it’s not as easy as one thinks.
Take it from me, don’t even think of putting it in the ground as a ground cover. It is also a hiding place for spiders too. The other no no is planting things like mint, that is another one that is invasive. Much easier to eradicate though. I might need a napalm strike on the Ivy to get rid of it.
I have a never ending battle with runners from Crepe Myrtle that the previous owner planted, grrr, it keeps resurfacing every few months and the roots must be everywhere in the front yard. The original was near the mailbox several meters away from my door, so heaven knows how long the runners really are. I am not a fan of that plant I can tell you 🤣🤣
The things we learn along the way with gardening. I should write a book on how not to screw up 🤣 god only knows how much money I have spent on making a nice garden over the past twenty odd years. Now much as I love going into the garden section at the hardware store I have to restrain myself. I am trying to keep it real and not be a slave to the garden. Just enough time to enjoy my garden and as little maintenance as possible is my dream.
We nearly bought some more chickens but thankfully thought better of that. It would mean extra work and less garden. Much as I love chooks, they eat everything and I don’t want to go back to mucking out their house again and losing garden space.
It would be lovely to have a garden set up like in the movie the secret garden. I just love that movie, watching the garden blossom in the hands of the children. How divine to have a garden that is so perfect and dreamy all year round. In an Australian climate that is possible, but it comes at a price, be it in time, money or water. But it is still worth the effort for the pleasure and joy that a garden brings, and not just to us humans. The birds, and insects need our gardens for survival in suburbia. Not to mention our deal beloved fur babies enjoy the delights of the garden too.

I grew up listening to these guys, from when I first came to Australia in 1973, aged 10. They were such an iconic band and still are. I remember Shirl being on a kids tv show called Shirl’s neighbourhood.
In later years he was on a DIY tv show and then in 2001, he was killed in a helicopter crash. A very sad day for Aussie music. Then we had the loss of Peter Starkie on September 16, 2020, he fell from a ladder aged 72.
Red Symons had a close call not so long ago , which is in the ABC link below, under related stories.

You can watch Skyhooks videos on YouTube, and hopefully become a fan. Australia was an awesome place growing up in the 70s.

Here are some more Q and A for you to enjoy. I finally got around to buying Not in his Image by John Lamb Lash, and finally making time to get my poor old head in to Gnosticism. I feel it will take me a while to remember things these days, lol. I used to be able to absorb a lot of information but not these days. Still I am not in a hurry.
Talk about a national embarrassment omfg. What sort of leaders or idiots do we have? This is only one situation of what our leaders are doing. They have no respect for the people of Australia nor any self respect that much is obvious, and we are going to have major problems rectifying this insanity.
The sheer cheek of Labor MP’s pointing the finger at the Liberals. Remind those Labor morons that it was their party that sold us out every time they were in power from the early 1970’s. Older people remember this and are not stupid like the snowflake generation. Remember the older generations fought to keep our land free.
Oh yeah and we want our water and farms back too!
