Victoria Police will be using drones and helicopters to spy on footy-mad Melburnians illegally celebrating Saturday’s AFL grand final.

The air wing and drone unit will be monitoring crowds at parks, beaches and other hot spots in Melbourne due to concerns

footy fans will defy lockdown restrictions. The metropolitan 'ring of steel' will also be bolstered and expanded to back roads.

We as Australians have to all stand up four our basic human rights and not let these left wing extremists take our rights and decisions away from us which they have been eroding over time through the senate!

That...is an invasion of privacy. And complete erosion of human rights! Enough is enough! We need to vote next election to protect our human rights and freedom and against parties contorlling all our actions, against controlling our freedon through creation of victimization laws!

Use the drones to find Sutton. Right hand Dans man missing and nobody knows where he is. Does he hurt? C'mon Dan, how you're gonna work without top advisor?

If they are outdoors they should be safe. Use police for real police work.

Dr. Li-Meng Yan shows the evidences in her two short reports that the coronavirus was manufactured and spread intentionally by the Chinese Communist Party. Click Amen00777 to read the 2 reports.

Curious, if someone smacks a drone out of the air in their yard, not knowing what it is, is it still wilful damage of property when you assumed its some creepy perv?

Gee Victoria using State of the Art surveillance equipment. Pity we can’t finish this State of the Art Robotic cancer Centre? 7 years overdue ☹️☹️☹️ DTGTO

KimboAussie Dan is a disgrace and a embarrassment! JailDanAndrews pass it on!

Any drones flying over head to detect the government “cover up”?

Why dont they put this money spent into finding a cure rather than a dangerous vaccine

How do you troll a drone? Asking for a friend.

In other news “Sales of catapults go through the roof”

What a bunch of grubs.Take away grand final, keep us locked down, tell us lies, move the goal posts, allow a race crowd to proceed. Then now, they are spying to catch us out, from doing anything remotely fun!? They are really trying our patience & pushing people to their limits.

We do realise this is what a police state looks like right - flu season is over - Covid strain is done for the year

It just keeps getting funnier ... The Socialist Republic of Danganistan is beyond parody ... some of this stuff would even make the Dear Leader in Korea blush ...

Police state bullshit . DictatorDan will be getting excited over this

Unbelievable.

Sounds like North Korea

Helicopters at $3000 per hour fuel plus staff

The twitter wag in me can't help but think of this scene. 😂 Maybe Dan Andrews is planning on being a game show host after politics. Who loves you, and who do you love!!

Now all you need is everyone to jump on ebay and order tons blow up dolls and place them around their yards to make it look like huge parties 🥳 😆

All Victorians should get their own drones out and fly them around every Imbecile Andrews property, all of his muppet ministers and also those who crossed the floor to support the Omnibus act. Only fair because we just want to make sure they’re doing the right thing, Dan’s rules.

We are having an outdoor garden cinema!

This is Dans communist Victoria in a nutshell

now that looks like a police state...

Big revenue spinner.

What a fucking disgrace. Are we living in Russia 🤦🏻‍♀️

Why didn’t they use them when people were supposed to be isolating at home? Fcking rabble

I hope these drones frim china have been sanitised before use

Target practice 🏏

Who said pigs can't fly?

I wonder if when these arrived from China did they also come with Dan's the next round of instructions!

Sling shots at the ready!

Adolph Andrews 👾has issued new orders. IGNORE him and do your own thing, Melburnians. DanielAndrewsMP Don't forget - lots of MOONS please.😇

Sky lying, still

Illegal

Who ever would have guessed governments would use Covid as an excuse to overreach.

Here we go our rights and freedom being stripped right before our eyes. People that think this is okay and DictatorDan is doing a good job are brainwashed 🤦🏽‍♂️😏

Hook a few bangers and rissoles over em and the big fella will order them back to base toot sweet

Priorities just don't seem right in Australia these days... Pretty sure there's some seriousbrax dodging going on. Meanwhile police are monitoring BBQs attended by people who'll probably catch up other days anyway?

Dan is trying to open up the state. The opportunity to issue heavy fines is diminishing - need more fines so he can plan the budget.

MarthaThomas20 Anything us Aussies love they kill! Footy fans have got the boot too! Similar to beaches.

Vic has become a POLICE state , CRAZY! Corrupt Victoria government

MarthaThomas20 More fascism on remote control

Disgusting

How pathetic!

Wow 1939 all over again Zieg Heil!

that’s a Daji drone

This blokes unbelievable, he’s gone from allowing 1500 people to mingle at the CoxPlate to sending out drones and police helicopters to catch small gatherings for GF day. All within 24 hours. Is he off his meds or what? SackDanAndrews SackSutton

throwupThursday Only in Victoria. Laborfail auspol springst

Rocks: Lemme introduce myself. Other drones: We got this.

Police in front of social housing NOT OK. Police in Hotel quarantine is OK Police controlling social distancing NOT OK 🙄

DanielAndrewsMP requested this to happen because of the backlash he & dopey MartinPakulaMP copped for stating that 300 people could attend the cox plate on Saturday. Because his fun was ruined in the ability to make money, he wants to ruin it for others. Very small minded moron

What a joke.

All is well in the Demokratik People’s Republik of Viktoria. You can sleep peacefully, knowing you are under the ever watchful eye of the Police State. This is what you get when you vote wannabe socialist dictators to power.

The lucky country maybe not

Haven't they spy since this covid bulshit started ?Nothing new,citizens been spy since we got smart phones 😀

This is a disgrace!

And that will be another nail in Andrews political coffin. VicPol already disgraced themselves arresting grandmothers and pregnant mums. After Cox Plate debacle, Andrews can shove those drones where the sun don’t shine. SackDanAndrews

The police have lost the plot. If they put this much effort into fighting crime they might actually catch a criminal or two......

Only in Richmond and Geelong though.

Maybe they can use the drones to help with their contact tracing debacle?

Sounds like they have found another income source other then traffic cameras

sconnybonbon winners piss

Wow. And people are ok with this?

You have to appreciate the irony of it all re. Victoria. A state which looks down on others for being to conservative etc etc with its strong labor/greens support base and yet.......this

What have we become 😭😭😭😭

And so it begins...say hello to Big Brother!

No, IStandWithDan and IStandWithBrett cult members, Victoria is not a police state is it? NO COVID on the loose, and Grand Final day - a chance for a positive restart in VIC and Dan the sadist wants to extend the misery.

What if I use drones to spy on the local Vicpol potato farm? 🤔

Of you see one, 'shoot' it down with something. lol

Pathetic

Indoors it is then.

Orwellian

Maybe throw some drones up around East Preston

Viola1500 nice, some flying target practice!

Let's hope some Dan worshippers start realizing what this man is doing to this state. I assume their response will be 'good, you shouldn't be out anyway.' This man is ruining Vic more every single day.

Viola1500 the gestapo state

And what happens if they catch people? More fines that won’t be paid. What a waste of time. Illegal celebrations pffft. What a joke. Dan is a 🤡

LekkaMercedez PoliceState run by an incompetent narsisist.

Lol of course they will.

They're in it together apparently down in Victoria

George Orwell would be proud of Dan and his Police state

He’s such a punitive prick.

Because drones and helicopters can see inside houses where the TV is 🤨

This is mad people where have our rights gone!!! The longer we put up with this the more the new normal changes our way of life

Orwellian.

Anyone got a slingshot or BB gun

Dictator Dan’s police state ResignDanielAndrews

Good idea

Can one of the journos at today’s presser please ask dan whether he is attending the GF, and therefore presumably getting an exemption to QLD quarantine? The rumour mill is in over-drive, I can believe it would happen...would make reaction to cox plate debacle look like a whisper

Same playbook...

Will they do the same for the Melbourne Cup Carnival? Me thinks not. plandemic

Dictator Dan get those from the CCP?

Now we know why VictoriaPolice didn’t want to manage the hotel quarantine program - having these extraordinary powers and ability to spy on people with drones is way better!

Nobody is going to pay the fines. So who cares?

Hey it’s skeet shooting season.

They are diverting it from the cox plate where it is apparently safe for large crowds to gather

This has nothing to do with virus, it is plain and simple revenue raising

Can the drones radio receivers be jammed somehow? Or do we need to get out our slingshots.

🤭🤭😝🤪😄😃😀🙃😊😉

Can’t do much if we are having the party inside.

becoming more of a dystopia daily. Slingshots will take out a drone by the way.. So will bombarding it with a thousand or so wireless connection attempts.

Getting pissed off yet Victoria?

All those new Chinese electronics brought in those mystery flights during curfew

Release the hounds

Because it’s such a public health risk that according to Dan we’ll all be let out of lockdown the next day anyway....

Starting to think this is now not COVID related...

Vicpol will fit guns onto them

Gotta keep those naughty kids in check!

Sounds about right for the socialist republic of Danistan
