It was Mahatma Ghandi who said that throughout history, there have always been tyrants, “and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall”. Which is true enough, but too often the falling is a long time coming, and without a due accounting. Think of Mao, or Stalin, dying peacefully of old age.
In the modern age, tyrants and blood-soaked warlords are too often allowed to shuffle off into retirement, rather than prison where they belong. Yes, I’m looking at you, Tony Blair and George W. Bush. Not to mention the plethora of little tyrants who flourished during the Covid pandemic. Where are the jail cells for the Anthony Faucis, Jacinda Arderns, or “Dictator Dan” Andrews?
Worse, their petty tyranny was so swiftly and easily imposed — and is taking so long to dismantle. Years after thousands of workers were sacked for refusing to be bullied into submitting to an unwanted, unnecessary, and mostly useless medical procedure, years after the Freedom Village protesters were arrested, beaten, and smeared by the bought-and-paid-for media, they’re quietly being vindicated.
Covid-19 vaccine mandates for Queensland police and ambulance workers were made unlawfully, the state’s supreme court has found.
The court on Tuesday delivered its judgments in three lawsuits brought by 86 parties against Queensland’s police ambulance services for their directions to workers issued in 2021 and 2022.
This follows similar judgements in New Zealand, where truck drivers were found to have been unlawfully sacked. In the US, the government shamefacedly admitted that it was wrong to dishonourably discharge military personnel for refusing Covid vaccines.
And if even police and ambulance workers were unlawfully sacked, what does that say about the small army of teachers, childcare workers, not to mention workers in every field imaginable, bullied and hounded out of their jobs?
The prior directions required emergency service workers to receive Covid vaccines and booster shots or face potential disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.
Just as the much-sneered-at Freedom Village protesters said all along, it was a human rights issue.
The court found the police commissioner, Katarina Carroll, failed to give proper consideration to human rights relevant to the decision to issue the vaccine mandate.
The former Department of Health director general Dr John Wakefield was unable to prove he issued the vaccine mandate under an implied term of the employment agreements for ambulance service workers.
As a result, both vaccine mandates were found by the court to be “unlawful” and to have no effect.

So, where was the human rights industry during all this? Hello, Paul Hunt? Gillian Trigg?
Nope, too busy taking payola from gangs and virtue-signalling for Jew-killing terrorists.
