Parliament officially ‘condemns’ George Christensen for anti-lockdown rant.



Rogue Coalition MP George Christensen has received a rare official condemnation from the Parliament, after another anti-lockdown speech which Labor leader Anthony Albanese claimed “undermined the actions of Australians to defeat COVID”.

The House of Representatives agreed to a motion from Mr Albanese, which called for the chamber to “condemn” Mr Christensen’s tirade.

The government, including Prime Minister Scott Morrison, did not oppose the motion.

Mr Christensen, the LNP member for Dawson, made yet another concerning speech in the House of Representatives on Tuesday afternoon, claiming face masks and lockdowns “don’t work”.

He claimed COVID “has a survivability rate of 997 out of 1000”, and railed that “some people will tragically die from it. That’s inevitable and we have to accept it”.

He also criticised “dictatorial medical bureaucrats”.

It followed a speech last week where Mr Christensen voiced support for anti-lockdown protesters, and an address to the Coalition party room where he called for “immediate freedom” from lockdowns.

George Christensen wrote:

I know my views may just be in the minority here and possibly in the Australian community but I
need to tell you them or I am not doing my job.

We should be pushing right now for IMMEDIATE freedom for all. Freedom of choice.
Freedom of movement. And freedom from fear. For all.
And that means a few things that we should not be doing that we are doing.

We should not be pushing for invasion of people’s privacy by enabling businesses to ask
staff and customers to confirm their vaccination.

We should not be pushing for discrimination against Australian citizens who choose not to undergo a
particular medical treatment, and that means we shouldn’t be allowing the refusal of employment
or service because someone hasn’t been vaccinated.

We should not be demonising people who choose not to get a vaccination.
We should not be attacking people who want to protest and exercise their free speech.
We should not be putting army troops on the streets to patrol citizens.

We should not be condoning Premiers shutting down State borders and locking down cities and States down,
principally because it’s been found by peer reviewed studies that these lockdown measures don’t work.
We should not be restricting Australians who want to travel overseas.

We should not be allowing censorship of alternative viewpoints on this pandemic by ACMA,
big tech or anyone else.

We should not be discouraging alternative treatments such as Ivermectin when peer-reviewed
studies have found they have a level of efficacy.
We should not be mandating the wearing of masks which, up until this pandemic, didn’t stop viruses.

And finally we should not be perpetuating fear of a virus that has a survivability factor greater than 997 out of 1000.

Now I haven’t made any substantive arguments on these points, not because I can’t but because I
know whatever statistics or data I put forward will be dismissed as some crazy anti-vax stance.
I’m not anti-vax. I’m pro-freedom.

Liberal Party constitution talks about having an Australian nation dedicated to political liberty and
the freedom and dignity of man.

The Nationals constitution talks about fostering “the maintenance of …liberty” and “the least
possible intrusion into the lives of individuals”
The LNP constitution talks about “Freedom of conscience, freedom of religion, freedom of
expression and freedom of association as the building blocks of robust and fair society”
Liberty and freedom should be the core of this room and this nation while we govern it.
And they should not be done away because of a virus.

Again I say, we need IMMEDIATE freedom for all. Freedom of choice, freedom of movement and
freedom from fear.

I see my comments made to the government party
room yesterday about pandemic restrictions have
been leaked to the media. Just so I’m not verballed or
misquoted, here is pretty much word-for-word what I
actually said…

Notes were written quickly. Apologies for the typos.

George Christensen MP
Today at 3:36 PM.

He's the only politician in Australia who has stood up to the insanity.
He's been severely told off and no media is reporting on what he actually said in the transcript.

I signed his petition against vaccine passports. People need to be proactive. Rallies and protests are definitely not my thing but there are other ways.

We have been stripped of free speech and too many people don't seem to care.

No wonder people turn to social media -
they can't get a fair and balanced viewpoint on any main stream media.
The TV is constantly brainwashing people.

George is an elected representative - what right has anyone got to censor him?
What happened to democracy?

Well they don't have any free speech on social media either. If they don't parrot the narrative of big tech and the left they get 'cancelled."

Yes, but what do they say about having the freedom to be falsely yelling 'fire' in a packed theatre?
