Mental illness sweeps The Guardian

Every day now, the former newspaper turned propaganda sheet of the fake left, The Guardian, lies about Aussie living standards.

Because it operates under the disgraceful ‘Jericho rule’, which is the opposite of truth and journalism, the paper systematically censors causes while focusing on symptoms:

Immigration – because there are many desperate to hate – must be treated with extreme care by politicians and journalists…The inherently racist parties will seek to use any discussion and any seeming evidence of the negative impact of migrants as fuel to burn their fires of hate.

Today’s example of corrupt reporting is ambos in country towns:

Rural New South Wales towns are being left without ambulances as paramedics have to transport elderly patients, while recruitment campaigns to get more health workers in the bush are stalling, an inquiry has been told.

The state government announced it would fund 500 positions for rural paramedics in its September budget, but recruitment has not begun, the NSW Australian Paramedics Association said on Monday.

Vice-president Scott Beaton said few of the 1,800 paramedic positions announced under the previous government were directed to regional areas.

…“This takes the power of that emergency ambulance out of the small communities for two to three hours to take someone from a nursing home to get a CT scan or an X-ray,” Beaton told the inquiry.

…poor housing was making recruitment even harder…A government-owned house used by paramedics in Collarenebri, in the state’s north-west, has not been refurbished for 18 years, Beaton said.

OK, so the problem is not maniac levels of mass immigration:

  • outstripping all public services in cities and country towns alike;
  • creating housing shortages everywhere;
  • crush loading ambos and hospital services in cities such that country towns are a long afterthought.

The cause of a crisis killing rural Australians is…according to The Guardian…an inanimate shed in Collarenebri.

The Guardian’s professional standards are now so corrupt that they are entering the realm of mental illness.

Further evidence of toxicity was reported elsewhere yesterday:

In June, I was sacked from my weekly Age column for speaking out about activist journalists at the paper who were smothering my efforts to air the commonsense debates around paediatric gender transition and the clash between sex-based rights and rights based on “gender identity”. (The paper has since been pushing back against the censorious within its ranks.)

My experience resembled that of former Guardian columnists, Suzanne Moore and Hadley Freeman, who likewise found themselves alienated in their long-time intellectual home for questioning the more radical trans activism that seeks to deny the biological reality of sex.

The Press Council of Australia should investigate The Guardian’s editorial team for deep misreporting.
