Phar Lap was probably the greatest race horse in Australian history. A horse that led Australia through difficult times during the Depression.
This horse, this amazing animal, united Australia in dark days and united Australians through hope and a bet that strength of character would triumph.
After all, Phar Lap loved to win. And, right now, we need a winner.

These days, it seems that anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Morrison has bungled the Brereton Report; America is in meltdown; China is smelling the blood of it's foes and the wolves are circling the injured prey that is our Civilisation.
So much is collapsing at present that it is hard to know where to start. Brush fires are becoming infernos and pathways to safety are closing before our eyes. So all I can do is to write from the perspective of a besieged and shocked observer and ponder how the hell this will all end.

When the Law Enforcers defy the Law Makers, the Laws and the People they are sworn to protect, one has to wonder whether we have got to the stage that the great Abraham Lincoln found himself in, back in 1861.
When Abraham Lincoln became President on March 4, 1861, the Civil War was only a month away. In his First Inaugural Address, President Lincoln was faced with a massive problem. Seven States had seceded from the Union and things were a tinder box of turmoil. He was faced with a decision that few Presidents have ever encountered: the potential destruction of his UNITED States of America.

Back in 1878, a landmark decision was handed down by the United States Supreme Court in the case of The United States versus Throckmorton.
In a nutshell, it was ruled that if fraud was used to defeat the ends of justice; then the party aggrieved by the fraud automatically wins the support of the law.
Vitiate means to " spoil or make useless. " To impair the quality of, corrupt, debase, contaminate.

I found this rather disturbing information online at twitter this morning and share it with you,
" URGENT ACTION required this weekend The Australian Gov TRAITORS, under the cover of darkness, want to allow #ForeignForces on Aust soil against #WeThePeople. [Legislation] EU army and Chinese Police already in use in VIC, SA and NZ."

Throughout the world, people are being persecuted, prosecuted and permanently damaged through Trial By Media.
What makes it worse, is that some of our Governments are joining the ranks.
Never have I been so disgusted as I am today with what is happening with our Australian troops.
They say that the death of a loved one, a divorce or moving house are some of those most stressful things a person can encounter. Illness, the loss of a job or standing on the scales and finding you have gained 3 kilos are also things that can tip a person over the edge. As a teenager, discovering a pimple on the morning of the big date was, to my teenage self, a catastrophe of monumental proportions.
As I matured, I became too busy to get stressed. I always meant to have a little breakdown, but never seemed to have the time.

People without a gate do not realise what a gate is.
It is the ability to lock, open, accept or reject a welcome visitor or an unwelcome visitor. Obviously, without a fence to accompany the gate, it is worthless. But, with a fence and a gate in place, what liitle we own in the world is precious. Without it, it is open to plunder.
I have become increasingly concerned that we are at a fork in the road. What plays out in the next 2 months will determine the course of modern history. It is that serious.
Should this illegal takeover of America succeed, people from all free Nations around the world will feel the impact of this life changing event. We are, whether we admit it or not, now in a state of war.
In 10 short months, our entire way of life has been altered and our sense of hope and optimism utterly decimated. All we had to cling to was the faith that President Trump would succeed in restoring balance to this tortured way of life. Has the rot set in so badly that there is no coming back?
The only way you can remove a tumour is to have a competent surgeon. One who has the will, the expertise, the determination and the tools to perform the life saving operation.
It does not matter how skilled the surgeon is, how well equipped the operating theatre or the team of staff the surgeon has at his side, without the scalpels and tools, the tumour cannot be excised.

As the fraud in global elections is mounting at an alarming level and we lose more and more of our freedom to the so called Corona Virus, 2020 has seen us plunged in to lockdowns, masks and a constant campaign of fear mongering.
Climate Change was put to one side while the planet was conditioned to accept unacceptable restrictions on our day to day lives, all under the guise of keeping us safe.
We have had years of social engineering where our opinions are callously disregarded if we do not submit to Black Lives Matter, babies are sacrificed on the altar of " my body my choice " , our elderly and vulnerable are subjected to abuse and neglect and our children brainwashed in to believing that pedophilia is normal. Little children are encouraged to learn about sex, become transgender and abandon the centuries old family values that have cemented our communities and kept us united.
