When the government of Australia requested an international investigation into the CCP coverup and the Wuhan Virology Lab, the official Chinese state media response was to derisively and dismissively call Australia the "gum stuck to the bottom of China's shoes".<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/28/australia-called-gum-stuck-to-chinas-shoe-by-state-media-in-coronavirus-investigation-stoush</ref>

Vaccination passports or exemptions are required to work, shop, attend events and essentially live in the [[New World Order]] Premier Daniel Andrews created for the citizens of Victoria. The day after Andrews outlined the new rules – the [[working class]], who were locked down and compliant to this point, finally had enough.

Vaccination passports or exemptions are required to work, shop, attend events and essentially live in the [[New World Order]] Premier Daniel Andrews created for the citizens of Victoria. The day after Andrews outlined the new rules – the [[working class]], who were locked down and compliant to this point, finally had enough.

On September 20, 2021 a large group of members of the biggest trade union in Australia, the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU), went to CFMEU headquarters to confront their leadership, CFMEU Secretary John Setka.  Their demand was to have their voices heard and use the power of the trade union to stop the Victorian government overreach. The union members wanted their leadership to block the new vaccine mandate and stop the creation of a two-tiered society as outlined by fascist Premier Daniel Andrews.

The union members wanted their leadership to block the new vaccine mandate and stop the creation of a two-tiered society as outlined by fascist Premier Daniel Andrews.

However, regional union secretary John Setka turned a deaf ear to the concerns of his members and would not listen. Angry at his members Setka asked, “What do you want me to do, shut it down?“, meaning use the power of the union -strike if necessary- to push back against the government.  The members said “yes”, exactly that. However, union boss Setka was unwilling as it appears he’s in alignment with the objectives of the socialist Premier.  Steka surrounded himself with thugs and bodyguards while turning against hundreds of his own members. The police arrived and used rubber bullets, tear gas, and riot units to dispel the crowd.

In response to the defiant nature of the CFMEU trade union, Premier Dan Andrews announced he was shutting down the construction industry as punishment for their non-compliance. Simultaneously, union boss Setka then went on media to attack his own members calling them fascists, Nazis and worse. This only made the issues more explosive.

Citizens were required to have their physical location scanned via a [[QR code]] on their phone. These checkpoints were to assist in controlling the COVID spread and were used for contact tracing throughout the past two years.  However, the checkpoints and gateway compliance scans also registered your physical location; the consequence was an increased ability for police and COVID compliance officers to catch people violating the COVID rules.  Ex: If you checked in at the grocery store, they knew how far from home you are, and the police could figure out if you violated your one hour of time outside the home at the next checkpoint.

The result of all this compliance monitoring was thousands of fines, civil citations for violating COVID rules.  Thousands of people given thousands of fines that would need to be paid.  The enforcement actions to collect these fines from the State Penalty and Enforcement Register (SPER) are quite extreme.  Citizens with outstanding tickets had their driver’s licenses suspended; bank accounts frozen and seized; homes and property confiscated, as well as business licenses suspended for outstanding citations.<ref>https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queensland/banks-raided-property-seized-licences-cancelled-in-covid-cost-recovery-20211027-p593kz.html</ref>

On December 15, 2023 a strong protest was made to the Australian Embassy in [[Moscow]] in connection with the participation of the Australian military contingent in the trilateral exercises of the United States, Japan and Australia “Yama Sakura-85” on the island of Hokkaido in close proximity to the borders of the [[Russian Federation]], the Russian Foreign Ministry reported. The expansion of [[NATO]]’s sphere of action to the Asia-Pacific region is also working in the same direction—against China and Russia. The countries of the so-called Asia-Pacific Four (AP4): Australia, New Zealand, [[South Korea]] and Japan took part in NATO summits in 2022 and 2023. And they are moving towards official membership in the alliance.
