Traffic warning for permitted workers and those travelling for essential reasons

Victoria Police is urging the community to avoid the Melbourne CBD this Saturday (5 September).

If you have to travel into the city for one of the permitted reasons, please allow for extra time as there will be several vehicle checkpoints in place and delays are expected throughout the morning.

A significant police operation will be underway in response to protest activity planned tomorrow, which is not currently permitted under the Chief Health Officer directions.

This is also a timely reminder that there are only four essential reasons permitted under the Chief Health Officer directions in Metropolitan Melbourne for you to leave your home. Police will continue to actively enforce Stage 4 Restrictions.

I get the flu vaccine every year now because one time I did actually really get the flu when I skipped the shot and thought I would die.

What a waste of time and resources. If she had incited a BLM, Extinction Rebellion, climate change or a 'keep Milo out of Australia' protest, would the police visit her house to interrogate and seize stuff? I doubt it.

This is all political policing, like you would see in Asian countries we love to call shitholes.

I still don't believe the protests should go ahead in saying that, just like anything similar.
 
It will come down to rioting and mass protesting if the restrictions don't lighten up. People are becoming increasingly frustrated. People's lives are ruined and becoming ruined. He is a sadistic campaigner. Id be embarrassed if I supported what he is doing. Take a hard stern ******* look at yourself.

We shouldn't fear our government and government agencies, they should fear us, the people.

Zoe is from country Victoria and wasn't planning to go into Melbourne, I'm really not sure she even knows what 'incitement' means. Meanwhile, Zoe has gone viral and quite right too, raiding a pregnant woman's house who is a lightweight in the scheme of things for FB posts and putting cuffs on her in front of her kids is not a good look.

I’ll be there 👍.

The police are taking measures to cut people off from getting in there apparently.

I personally don't think you should go but if you insist, make sure you have a couple of spare masks and bottles of water because you're probably going to get pepper sprayed.
 
Her being pregnant has nothing to with anything. I love the fact that these muppets who are acting all tough on the internet are breaking down when the Police come knocking and begging like dogs for forgiveness.

Protest is 5 weeks too late people.

I'm thinking rather loosely though atm, that if the police are crawling all over our social media and more specifically gathering intel to prosecute they might be ethically obliged to jump in with a warning. Something like 'Hey Victoria Police here..... ' and go on to explain exactly what incitement is and provide a phone number etc.

That would have sorted Zoe from regional Ballarat out. She's a lightweight.

It does I think, they took her phone, computer and every other device in the house whether it belonged to her or not including her partners. She was non resistant and didn't need cuffing, particularly not in front of her kids. She offered straight away to withdraw and take the offending posts down, cops ignored her.

I'm not surprised either Zoe from regional Ballarat didnt understand what incitement was, I've never even heard of the charge being used in Victoria before.

Ignorance of an offence is not a defense. The Police were nothing but professional and did exactly as they should have.

The law might suck and people might disagree with it but that's not the Police fault.

Actually, I think there may be room for ignorance as a defence here. It will be interesting to see how it plays out though.

Personally I'm a cooperative in seeing us out of this lockdown asap and not interested in defending destructive behaviour / conspiracy theories but I'm a bit shocked at the authoritarian zeal and delight a lot of people seemed to get out of seeing her arrested and cuffed in front of her kids.

Breaking Story: Victoria Police corruption linked to Ballarat Mum
Posted on 11:37 pm, September 2, 2020 by Sinclair Davidson
Like all liberally minded people, we Cats have been horrified by the arrest of a pregnant Ballarat mum trying to exercise her rights as an Australian citizen, and Victorian citizen under the Victorian Charter of Rights.

Our very own Salvatore has made a very important link.

It appears from the YouTube clip that the person who signed the warrant is a Detective Senior Sergeant Tim Argall.

So what? you might say. Somebody has to sign the warrant. Except:

A Ballarat policeman involved in recruiting gangland barrister turned high-level informer Nicola Gobbo has admitted he had an “episode of physical intimacy” with her.

Detective Senior Sergeant Tim Argall told a royal commission on Monday he also later sought legal advice from Ms Gobbo when a friend of his – drug squad detective Paul Dale – was charged with the burglary of a drug house in Oakleigh.

Senior Sergeant Argall said he socialised with her in later years when she was not informing to him, after regularly seeing her at court when she was a barrister and he was working as a detective.

So the guy who claims that he had an “episode of physical intimacy” with Nicola Gobbo is the same man who signed a warrant to arrest a 5-month 7-week pregnant woman who wanted to protest against the lock-down in Victoria?

For our non-Australian readers – Nicola Gobbo is/was a police informant who was also working as a lawyer (barrister) for individuals accused of criminal behaviour. It is alleged that her joint role as a lawyer for the accused and her role as a police informant has compromised the trials of individuals accused of criminal behaviour.

Seriously – how and why is he still employed by Victoria Police, let alone signing warrants for the arrest of people (pregnant women) who wish to engage in political protest?

HT: Salvatore and JC.


I can see a pattern here .

Screw your laws you people are thick as two short planks 🤘
 
I do not agree with the protest but take note the police are broadcasting on face book that there will be delays on Saturday going into the city because you will have to pass through a road block. The police are ring fencing the city and intend to stop all people trying to enter that don't have a valid reason for doing so. I suspect that this will include public transport.
To quote their post;
