New religious freedom law the government want to introduce would see your old school being able to sack you because you were a heathen, Jim
Yes, that's about the size of it. However, even if they had had the power, my old school would never have sacked me, because it amused them to have their very own pet atheist... :{D

Vanderlin Drive in Darwin, I believe. I used to live in a street just off there in the early 1990s. Good to see the Darwin traditions are still alive and well.

I don't know what they are protesting about. Aren't most restrictions gone in NSW and Victoria?

The protests are mostly about vaccine mandates, whether relating to jobs or going into retail and entertainment venues, which the non-vaccinated are (quite rightly) barred from...

I didn't think they were still a thing. Wasn't that stuff supposed to go at 90%?

All restrictions should be lifted. The vaccinated are only under a low threat from the virus now. It's the unvaccinated who are doing the dying.

When the hospitals overflow, everyone is in trouble.

There's not much virus in the community thanks to the high vaccination rates. Hospitalisations (and ICU admissions) have been falling for months here.
