Mangled Thoughts

Have just skimmed through the bill. It does contain extensive police state powers. More-oever, in addition to the clear coerive violence to be exercised aginst parents who teach their children at home, or pay, say a retied professor to do so, the bill covers all the way to universities and note that irony.

The left continually bleat and rant about the preservation of the independence of the universities, yet it was the Hawke ALP Cabinet, with Dawkins as the Minister, which pushed through measures which interfere directly, through administrative controls, into the internal affairs of universities. Bracks’ bill exceeds what Hawke and Dawkins rammed though the federal Parliament, and how. This Bill amounts to direct political interference in universities, as well as schooling, rendering them, and professors subject to the capricious whims of the goon squads which are to be set up to enforce the bill once it is passed. Professors and tutor will no longer be masters of their fields, they will have to comply and be approved by the leftoid shites who stuff the department of education and the new goon squads. So, leftoid screamers, what is it you were saying about the Howard Govt.?

Those who teach their children at home, or have someone reliable to do it, say a retired professor, or someone just who are literate in the three rs and can drill them in to children unlike many who stuff govt. schools, are subject to all the provisions of the bill. ( Teaching `qualifications’ are meaningless, absolutely, they are crap).

The bill invents more, many more, novel crimes unheard of in Common Law, as usual of the Stalinist Junta. It is a puntive criminal offence for example, for parents to refuse admission into their homes the `inspectors of the new goon squad. Yes, they can be arrested.

The bill contains all that I have said, the Bracks lead ALP Cabinet are building a totalitarian stalinist junta which will be a joint rule between polticians and bureaucrats with goon squads as enforcers of their tyrannous dictatorship. The provisions of the bill entail a major increase in that joint stalinist dictatorship.

….And the whiners against Howard are, silent, all of them silent.

But, here are a few details which indicate the bill is just one more brick in what is proving to be a very short road to the full realisation of a Stalinist totalitarian dictatorship, in more:
