That electoral loss only caused the F\u00fchrer to ponder whether he should make the handing out of How-to-Vote leaflets at polling booths illegal.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe you think it\u2019s the fact that the F\u00fchrer is spending millions of taxpayer dollars on a mindless spin-campaign to convince pissed-off Queenslanders of the righteous glory of the VLAD Act\u2026erm, despite the fact that he is on record stating that the VLAD Act is what Queenslanders wanted all along and only the F\u00fchrer was brave enough to give it to them?<\/p>\n<p>Nope. That\u2019s not gonna stop him.<\/p>\n<p>After all, it\u2019s not like he\u2019s spending his own money there is it?<\/p>\n<p>Nor is he going to spend his own money defending himself against a defamation case being launched by the lawyers he accused of being part of the criminal motorcycle gang machine.

One hopes that eventually, the dog gets the message.<\/p>\n<p>So let\u2019s examine what the F\u00fchrer\u2019s VLAD legislation has achieved shall we?<\/p>\n<p>In real terms.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of kids not being sold drugs and organised crime ruling the nunneries and orphanages of the Reich.<\/p>\n<p>OK.

That\u2019s what I want in a police commissioner, don\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p>And I\u2019m sure we\u2019re all good with police being held to different standards than the rest of society is.<\/p>\n<p>The F\u00fchrer himself has been mentioned in dispatches in a recent ICAC hearing; a hearing that brought down the NSW premier, Barry O\u2019Farrel. It had something to do with the Eddie Obeid-linked Australian Water Holdings being asked to fork over $5000 to meet with the F\u00fchrer, who was then the Lord-mayor of Berli\u2026erm, Brisbane.<\/p>\n<p>But there is, apparently, nothing to see there. So let\u2019s move along, shall we?<\/p>\n<p>So, in terms of what the F\u00fchrer wanted when he responded to his keeper\u2019s demands with the VLAD Act, and what actually, in fact, happened? Well, it\u2019s pretty much a fizzing bust.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8681\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8681\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8681\" alt=\"Billionaire mining magnate Clive Palmer\" src=\"http:\/\/bikeme.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Billionaire-mining-magnate-Clive-Palmer.jpg\" width=\"620\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bikeme.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Billionaire-mining-magnate-Clive-Palmer.jpg 620w, https:\/\/bikeme.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Billionaire-mining-magnate-Clive-Palmer-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bikeme.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Billionaire-mining-magnate-Clive-Palmer-526x350.jpg 526w, https:\/\/bikeme.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Billionaire-mining-magnate-Clive-Palmer-600x398.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8681\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sic him, big guy.

And there is no guarantee that it will rule one way or the other on this matter.<\/p>\n<p>There are rumours there will be elections in the Reich as early as June and the F\u00fchrer\u2019s massive majority will be somewhat diluted.<\/p>\n<p>What can you do in the interim?<\/p>\n<p>You can keep writing and emailing everyone and anyone at every tier of the government, both state and federal. You can hold the media reports to account by decrying the bullshit they feed you. You can talk to everyone you know about this and you must keep at it until you\u2019re blue in the face and then some. Stay staunch. Stand on your feet, not on your knees. Inform yourself. Knowledge is power in this case and in every case.<\/p>\n<p>And put aside any na\u00efve notions about revolution and armed insurrection. That will never happen. And quite frankly, you don\u2019t want it to. I have seen, first-hand, the results of a civil war, and it\u2019s not anything any reasonable human being wants or needs.<\/p>\n<p>The F\u00fchrer\u2019s time will pass.
