Douglas Murray: World must demand a ‘genuine answer’ on COVID-19 originAuthor Douglas Murray has criticised recent comments made by Dr Anthony Fauci relating to the Trump administration's handling of China amid the outbreak of COVID-19. Dr Anthony Fauci – America's leading infectious disease official – recently took aim at the Trump administration, saying it 'clearly' had an 'anti-China approach' right from the very beginning. Dr Fauci said the Trump administration had an 'accusatory nature' in its approach to China. 'Fauci is just so desperate to make this entirely an issue of the Trump Administration's ... lack of diplomacy,' Mr Murray told Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi. 'This had very little to do with that. 'The main problem and the questions about the source of the virus continue and they continue because of the Chinese Communist Party's wilful attempt to cover-up and make sure the world doesn't find out what was happening in Wuhan. 'And I just don't think anyone should be deflected by this Fauci move or by anyone else. 'I'm very keen that the civilised world gets together and continues to demand a genuine answer to why this virus got out and how we'll make sure that it never happens again. 'But I don't see that unanimity – I see people like Fauci saying 'well, let's blame Trump, let's blame Biden, let's blame anyone but the Chinese Communist Party'.' Fauci is the father of Covid-19. Yeah democrats only take the vaccine when Biden is President but wouldnt if trump was POTUS

‘Distrust’ in another ‘massive layer of bureaucracy’ with Voice to ParliamentCLP Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price says many people “don’t have a clue” as to what the Indigenous Voice to Parliament means. She said people are concerned because Indigenous programs in the past have been “inept” and haven’t been able to fulfil their obligation to produce outcomes. “So there’s a lot of distrust for another massive layer of bureaucracy that Indigenous Australians have to – like red tape – go through to produce any outcomes,” she told Sky News host Paul Murray. “Activists in the day fought for equality, fought for the same rights as other Australians and that is what we have got. “But now, you give activists a centimetre, they want to take a mile and that’s what’s going on with this Voice proposal that has no detail.” The Govt should place the Voice mechanisms in place, test them, tweak them so they work and everyone has confidence they are delivering before selling to have it enshrined in the constitution. Including a speculative remedy is irresponsible. In a democracy they all get one vote. Might need to respect that CLP Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price says many people “don’t have a clue” as to what the Indigenous Voice to Parliament means., including Senator Price, and that's why she and her party are dead against it,,,,,,,,ignorance !
