A new report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) this week finds that global coal consumption has risen to a new high. Despite longstanding claims from countless green organisations, including the IEA itself, that coal is on its way to being phased out, replaced by the “unstoppable” rise of green energy, it seems the green ‘transition’ remains further away than was predicted. And this has dealt yet another blow to green hopes invested in China, where, it turns out, much of the growth in coal use has occurred.
The Guardian‘s activist-cum-energy-correspondent, Jillian Ambrose was first to the scene. ‘Coal use to reach new peak – and remain at near-record levels for years,’ she wailed. In a very short piece that rambles off on tangents about Russia and the U.K.’s closure of the Ratcliffe-on-Soar coal power station in September, we learn that “consumption of the fossil fuel is now on track to rise to a new peak of 8.77 billion tonnes by the end of the year – and could remain at near-record levels until 2027”.

I shall look forward to their massive outbreak in “cases” in the next few weeks then – no doubt the will blame it on the 5% unvaxxed though
I doubt that going to a restaurant a few weeks earlier will convince anyone one way or the other after 18 months of lockdowns.
Yes, the latest idiot PM in New South Wales looks to be running shit scared. If the unsullied have held out this long, nearly all will continue to do so.
So I’m wondering whether they will test the vaccinated as they start rolling into the hospitals in ever larger numbers?
The case numbers are surely going to explode given the lid they kept on the population.
They will explode everywhere and it will be difficult for them to keep the lid on the obvious fact that it is only the jabbed who are dropping like flies.
We are now at Stage 6.
Remember it was just a conspiracy theory!
Just In: Merkel – New severe restrictions for the unvaccinated.
Indeed, they have the same blueprint as all Anglophone legislations do, followed closely by the rest of the Western world as China laughs when it is imposed on Developing Nations.
NSW is just a trial run while the State of Victoria is voluntarily running ahead of the game.
Going into Summer in Australia, so they probably reckon it’s a good time to play this card.
They can pretend ‘the measures’ have been successful.
And when people start getting ill in 6 months, they already have the story ready, well rehearsed over here:
The real story, that the vaccines are scything through populations will likely soon become obvious to all. What happens then is anyone’s guess.
The “vaccines” are doing what they were intended to do – cripple and kill people.
Having normalised hysteria and totalitarian control, regimes everywhere are now normalising medical apartheid. How far away can we be from The Trials of the Unvaccinated, where the ‘unvaccinated’ are dragged before a kangaroo court by a baying mob and burnt at the stake? A bit far-fetched? If you’d have been told in mid-2019 that we would experience what we have for the last 18 months, you’d have told the person it was ‘far-fetched’, and you’d probably have called them a conspiracy nut. We no longer have the luxury of dismissing things as ‘far-fetched’.
We have regressed to such an extent and at such a rate that one wonders how long it will take to restore sanity and rationality if/when we put a stop to this madness.
Kangaroo courts could happen, but as time goes by the vaxxed will be dead and dying and increasingly less able to oppress the unjabbed. The real danger for those of us, who are still wisely resisting the “poison death shots”, is more probably internment leading on to elimination, by a very desperate officialdom.
The only way it will be removed is when the majority wake up, realise the lies, distortions, they have been subjected to, and remove all anti-liberty politicians from being anywhere the levers of power ever again. They say that “those who ignore the lessons of history are condemned to repeat them”, – well, as a people we need to learn BIG lessons about our “betters” and their love of despotism.

Why protest outside? Surely inside is better?
My God, but they are vile.
‘“Ultimately we want a united society and we believe by moving that date back to December 15th will incentivise [sic]” [Dominic Perrottet] said.’
Marvellous, isn’t it? Regimes everywhere have been demonising and coercing their people. They have actively encouraged disunity by pitting citizen againat citizen, and this odious creature has the front to say they want a united society! Oh yes, we’ll demonise and coerce you until you are ‘united’ with us!
Once again, language is abused and meanings are turned on their head.
Once they murder all those that disagree those that remain will be united.
Good. The bedwetters will all be in one place and we can avoid them
The bedwetters will be jabbed and so are already doomed. The aim of the rest of us is to keep out of the internment (elimination) camps, that governments will be preparing for those that won’t conform.
Did anybody see the coward Jacinda Ardern scurry away from her press conference when asked about the failure of the ‘vaccine’ in Israel? So enjoyable to watch. There’s a link in this news roundup:
https://yvymaraey.blogspot.com/2021/11/update-from-planet-lockdown.html
Ardern before becoming NZs die Fuhrerin – she worked for PM Tony Blair’s Cabinet Office and was El Presidente of the International Union of Socialist Youth.
So why the surprise she’s a majorette cheer-leader for the NEW NORMAL?
I didn’t know that. But it does explain the smug, insufferable grin and the vacuous discourse.
Change “unvaccinated” to “jew”, “gay” or “socialist” and it becomes clearer what is being done. They are not isolating the infectious, just those who haven’t demonstrated their allegiance to the group.
To everybody’s geniune surprise – no vaccine required to go shopping in Melbourne.
New South Wales run by Liberals.
Liberalism in its modern form is essentially fascism.
‘If Fascism Ever Comes to
AmericaAustralia, It Will Come in the Name of Liberalism’ – Ronald ReaganRonnie was right for both countries.
Ha ha ha! Given up on zero Covid, as I said they would have to. This prediction was greeted with a tsunami of drivel from Australians contradicting me, whilst I was struck by the similarity of the things they were saying to the views of U.K. tabloid man a year ago. In 8 months or so they will also have realised that vaccines do not retard the spread of the disease, so vaccine passports are pointless.
There is a definite and observable time lag between the UK and Australia on this issue for obvious reasons. People who study both know all, but the majority of Australians have no idea about the vaccines and boosters failing in Israel and the UK. In Australia, it’s still very much a case of “life will be normal when all plebs are jabbed.”
Premier Perottet claims the ‘freedom’ delay for the Unclean will “incentivise” them to get the shot and bump the double-vaxx rate up to the magic 95%. He obviously doesn’t read this publication which reported polling in Germany showing that the people targeted by such manoeuvres are actually made less inclined to get the jab – 86% of respondents said that they will be more likely not to receive the ‘vaccine’ if politicians promise to lift Covid restrictions once a certain vaccine quota is attained. They stole our freedoms and they can’t bribe us into getting them back, is their admirable thinking.
Perottet’s get-out is that December 15 will be the new Freedom Day, even if 95% isn’t reached, but he is a politician after all, not a White Hat saviour, and having shifted the goalposts once, who is to say he won’t shift them again.
I’m looking forward to how they handle the massive surge in cases and deaths among the injected. They will not be able to blame the untermensch because they are banned from participating in much of society. In doing this, they have broken the social contract and citizens are no longer under any ethical or lawful obligations to obey government. Do as you will until democracy is restored and these traitors are punished.

New Zealander forum member describes a conversation he had with “elites”, where they describe the real reason for this push at vaccination and give hints for the end game
The interesting thing if this leak is true, is that the plan is to get the public to turn on their governments. This is how the global government will be imposed.
When will they be issuing special identification clothes to the unvaccinated? when will the first ghetto be opened? perhaps they can have a firework display over sydney harbour to celebrate
I’m sure those, like me, refusing to get the vaccine will not mind holding out till Dec 15, leaving the vaccinated to their eternal booster shots each six months. That last 5% may prove difficult, because a lot of ethnic minorities don’t trust governments – something we could learn from.
This is worse than any Communist state. At least in the USASR you could travel within your area, go to shops, bars etc, have visitors at home etc without these restrictions. I hope that the inhabitants will remember this when they next come to vote.
Why wait to vote? All you get is another corrupt politician who will carry on with more of the same. People should get off their arses and do something today. But they won’t.
What a sickening place.
