The Queensland Government has announced a catastrophic 80% reduction in commercial Spanish Mackerel quotas in addition to six weeks of closed season.
This devastating blow to both recreational and commercial fishers is based on rubbish science that has been refuted by Industry and peer-review.
As Dr Peter Ridd outlines:
The Queensland government claims the number of mackerel is down to just 17% of what existed before European settlement. This is rubbish – and the scientist selected by the government to peer-review this conclusion strongly disagreed with the methodology to make this claim. The 17% number is based on a new computer model where they chose some unreasonable input parameters.
It is sometimes said of models: rubbish-in then rubbish-out. But in this case, it is carefully selected rubbish-in, the answer they want out. The model also used data on fish catch going back to 1912. But there is no decent data going back that far. They essentially made up the data for before the 1940s: the use of this bogus data is crucial to how the model calculated the 17% figure.

This move from the Queensland Government will destroy livelihoods. To do so on such a flimsy and deceptive scientific basis borders on criminal.
The Queensland Government must cancel the proposed closed season and quota reduction. The junk science this decision is based on must be immediately withdrawn.
Must be the same method they use to claim climate change is real.
I totally agree. Rubbish in Rubbish out : I am not convinced that they know how to do otherwise ! Bryan.
Looking at all the crazy things happening across the globe, I find it peculiar how we always work from the premise that politicians (and unelected bureaucrats) have ‘our collective’ best interest at heart – Not sure why we assume this, maybe it has to to with Hanlon’s razor and the adage or rule of thumb that states “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity” – The problem is for the most part all these CRAZY policies, enforcements, mandates we’ve seen of late CANNOT be explained by stupidity alone. These people know EXACTLY what they are doing. They are talking half-truths at best, or straight up lying at worst. I am not convinced anymore by Hanlon’s rule. I am however increasingly convinced ‘these people’ have a wholehearted, pernicious and malicious intention to disrupt, destroy, and devalue most normal middle of the road folks types’ lives.
Looks as though they used an old US voting machine to get the fish stock numbers.
This Queensland girls club government is a mess.If any government was real they would protect the whistleblower not give them a hard time to get rid of them.I worked in 4 gov departments.
Exactly Colleen, a method that favours the government and is not even real. They are really coming after our food, first the farmers now the fishermen. Unless something is done about the abuse of these fictitious methods we will be eating grass.
Without any doubt this Palachook Labor gov must be booted @ the next election. Their arrogance towards Queenslanders & their support of globalist ideology against Australian traditional values is bordering on treason.
Hypocrites galore.
Being an avid fisherman and around people who love the sport I find this to be another gross over reach based on ridiculous “science.” The Mackrell are up north at the moment and we’ve seen a big difference in catch mainly because of tide and rainfall I feel. Netting is another huge problem!
The whole things a sham, this is the New World Order presents itself and from the words from the World Health Organisation and the Dictating Economic Forum leadership Klaus Schwab, who are foreign and illegally unrecognised in Australia as a Government
What a joke. Why are we listening to these fools. We need to stop supply for 1 or 2 weeks and then see what these idiots from the inner city voters do when they can’t have a latte coffee and a nice fish to eat. French farmers never supplied milk for a month and it bought the government down. We need to do this and they may take notice. Got to get tough with these idiots.
Playing to the WEF agenda, shut industry down, try and break everyone,have people reliant on gov. for existence only living allowance. Thinking Aussies say NO! People have more grit than so called leaders 😉🤙
Funny there is a fishing ban being imposed in WA ??
Just following the science??(technocrats) same communist manifesto?
We need to look forward to the WA state election with a list of things to fight with
Malcolm, you are just telling us what every Australian already knows. Labor doesn’t run this country, The Greens do. This country is on a serious downward spiral and Labor is going to be a one term government. Australians just hope that your party will put your efforts into doing something so these pointless policies will never become actual reality. 🤞🤞🤞🤞
We desperately need a people’s bank !
CBA is allready blocking the app if you disagree with they’re terms and conditions, bail in I definitely disagree with !!!
It is not surprising that the flimsy basis for a decision borders on criminal. That is in keeping with their normal behaviour. Did we ever see a satisfactory outcome to the corruption probe? Hmm.
Well, this is enough to agree that it is rubish ” “The Queensland government claims the number of mackerel is down to just 17% of what existed before European settlement” were they there and it all based on assumptions, which we know from both COVID19 and climate change, are all fairy land stuff.
This is another push for Globilists to send our small business’s broke . This needs be squashed., it is the same as the Climate Change agenda. There is no Climate Change we only need to go to the NASA Web Site to find this out. The earth axis does not stop moving & our orbit around the sun changes depending on Gravitational pull from outside influences, thus the weather changes as this happens
This is appauling and not achievable. The only thing they will achieve is people suffering with high costs and not being able to use heating and cooling. Especially the pensioners

It matters not to those who rule Oz whether or not we r in hock to China for our energy apparatus. As the rulers r dragging us into world government, they think they will be co-rulers with the rest of the international elites. It’s treason in high places.
You have the proof the percentage is not true, so point this out.
Thank you for alerting us to these problems. It is very scary. Like watching a train wreck going to happen.
Hi Malcom is there any means that the senators can control the interest rates which will destroy our way of life and will cause mass loss of life I could imagine.
Malcolm im proud we have you as an Australian and as a senator s a valued representative of all Australians even the ones that have to be dragged to the truth rather than lured there but so be it the truth is the truth there are no versions of it there is no politically mandated ownership of it democracy is a fickle mistress but she is our only hope against autocratic neo-liberal marxism which only preaches what to destroy without offering any prolonged hope for civilization and humanity democracy is not perfect but its the only barrier between the rule of law and the rule of the hired mob
that is state-sponsored corporate control of our resources utilized for their profit
to me, the climate debate means nothing if we remain unprepared to rid ourselves of petrochemical plastics the real devil in the detail but they would rather fixate on carbon dioxide emissions and methane from cows both naturally occurring gases if they were serious about renewal they would replace over 90 percent of plastics with superior hemp-based alternatives detoxicating and regenerating all of our arable lands but they are not serious their mission is not to build but to destroy our civilization because it suits there business model there is no happy ever after in a Marxist revolution Marx was a means to an end a way to channel the working man’s aspirations into a violent dreadful war against wealth that has taken hundreds of years to produce our grandfathers would be spinning in there graves if they knew the leadership of the democratized planet has been cooped by the vilest and most repugnant themes and preoccupations of both fascism and communism combined and embodied in this corporate stakeholders war against reason
they seek control for control’s sake and craft their profits on the destruction of wealth and the division of peoples to acquire their sovereign resources which they intend to utilize to exhaustion
if these elite prevail there is no hope for humanity our extinction is assured first with the collapse of the west then we will all die a beggars death at the hands of practicing sadists and hired henchmen it all looks pretty bloody grim
Absolutely! Another way to destroy livelihoods and incomes. And this ridiculous notion of solar power – making us dependent on China, is beyond belief.
Just wondering where wind turbines parts etc are made, I was in a family discussion (I’m the only one not believing the Gov line on climate change).
In the discussion I said how all the wind turbines are made in China and shipped here put up and the need replacing in twenty years if not before. I was put in my box and told no Spain supplies much of them, especially the ones for Europe.
Unsurprisingly there is no info I could find on the actual hardware production online. My nephew works in Norway for their chief manufacturer and he announced recently no more wind farms are to be built in Norway, so he’s working a lot in various other countries now.
Concrete info on actual makers would be great.
Pray for you daily Sen Roberts along with like minded ones in parliament, may God bless you and guide you in all things.
Shaz Gum.
The Queensland government buys its fish from a shop not tje ocean perhaps Pauline could give parachute a lesson in supply and demand and on ” models” from who ?
Thanks Malcolm for all the excellent work you are trying to support the people.
In all the issues we have with the WEF Plan, Vax, Cloud seeding, WHO Treaty, Land acquisition and much more.
With respect to New Clean power.
Simply it’s like all Projects if the planning is not done correctly, and the infrastructure is not in place the project will fail.
Planning required to ensure power is available without overload. Also adequate power available for stakeholders until system proven.
Delivery systems are not overloading the power available. There are systems that are available that minimise the current Infrastructure requirements for supporting power switching , transfer and storage and at a lower cost.
The shutdown of current power supply delivery should not be just shut down without the new system fully tested and approved (This fails as seen currently in the world , Take Germany , for instance shutting down Nuclear Clean Systems and putting the strain on the people,
Most of all that the stakeholder are happy with the outcome and Not forced on them as currently is by WEF plan.
I have a lot more to say but I’ll leave the above for now!
Regards
Ramon Hewitt
Would it be worthwhile to start an online petition to the Queensland Government about this?
It’s time to stop the tyranny we need to get rid of these governments that only have an agenda for themselves. Let’s bring back accountability for them . If we as the general public scam , fraud , murder , harm and many other acts that our government agencies enforce . They need to be held accountable for the same thing against the commonwealth and it’s called TREASON.
We know this is all about destroying Australia’s economy, and control of our very existence by the UN and the WEF.
Our Govts MUST divorce both of these immediately. We are not asking, we the people are telling the Govt, by order of our constitution 1901. Do it.
There are plenty of fish in the sea for hobby anglers. Commercially that’s a different story.
If you put too much solar power onto the national grid, the switching frequencies of the electronics mucks the entire national grid up. Some of the large solar farms were switched off for long periods because of this problem. Don’t have details but worth a look into this problem. I guess the greenies will never acknowledge this problem even if presented in black and white but maybe worth having a look at.
Re: Banks
There are still banks owned by members. People’s Choice Credit Union (SA) & Heritage Bank (Qld) are owned by members & amalgamating. I’m supporting them as an alternative to the big 4 & the push to digital currency.
This Fisheries decision has been made by ” Government Bureaucrats” & having worked in Government , I know & have experienced how these people control decisions not the Politicians . The politicians base their decisions on information provided to them . It is time that the Bureaucrats have to be accountable to the voters for the work & so called statistics they provide to the Politicians & thus to the people who pay their wages.
John Simpson.
W E F at work , YOU<LL own nothing and be happy.
This evil plan, The WEF and The New World Order, by all governments is to starve us and to financially ruin us. “You will own nothing and be happy”
All the governments in the world are Cory of and are puppets to this scenario ( a few exclusions) where in Gods name do we go from here?)
Sack the lot. Stop the rot. The Premiers and Government are not working for the people but to enhance themselves.
The media is corrupt so are banks and all corporations. All sectors of government , police and judicial systems and the medical profession, all work against Australians
Freedom of speech has long gone so Australians are not aware of the truth. Sack the lot.
thanks for your emails. I appreciate your comments. make sense. Faye
The Qld labor government is the maestro of subterfuge when it comes to manipulation of the facts to suit their own agendas. Advice from the fishing industry has been ignored once again, so Palazsuk’s mob can be seen as doing something about “dwindling fish stocks”! If only they were as diligent in their efforts to save the koala from extinction. Their minister for the environment should be renamed “The minister for developer’s wallets”, making sure they stay fat!
Strangling the farmers, strangling the fisheries, eliminating livestock- all a part of controlling the food supply to people – therefore controlling the people. We will NOT, MUST NOT, allow this to happen. I will continue to support One Nation in bringing these ‘scandals’ to our nation’s attention.
I read Dr Ridd’s report re the Great Barrier Reef and I wasn’t surprised that green movement was lying about their claim the reef was in dire straits based on “modelling”. The so called climate change crisis is based on modelling, the so called COVID crisis was/is based on modelling and so why not create another crisis based on modelling. Does anyone see a pattern here? Modelling being wrapped up by academics in flowery language sold to politicians and the media under the banner of scientific fact that is being force fed to the public and digested to poison peoples minds. Well I have learnt from the COVID experience to question every number published that is derived from a statistical model, find its source i.e. its author and use the critical thinking motto of “who benefits” from the decisions of the modelling outcome. I have also learnt that the organisation paying for the modelling choose modellers that will deliver the desired outcome, meaning the decision has already been made, the modelling is used to justify the decision. This is what the WHO do, the IPCC do, the Doherty Institute, The Burnet Institute (think COVID) and it is as stated above, wrapped up in flowery language and sold to politicians and the media as scientific fact and its always a crisis, always. When you read these studies they are full of these words – forecasts, estimates, assumptions, proxies, confidence levels, scenarios, variables etc. This is the language the statistician and statistics can be manipulated to say anything to fit any agenda, governments love them because they can story tell and make up fairy tales. Is this science? Science is about what is observable and measurable not about phenomena that has not happened yet. Use of statistics in science about the future should come with a warning label that all of these -forecasts, estimates, assumptions, proxies, confidence levels, scenarios, variables are not complete, never can be complete and therefore more measurable and observable data is required before decisions are made.
Well , not surprising the days from the socialo / communist AKA labour government at the payroll of the WEF & the globalist elite. All this is similar to the CO2 AKA global climate change & is going towards one & unique goal , like the poison covid jab , world depopulation not only by killing them under false pretences of protecting them from a pseudo inexistant virus 🦠 which has never been isolated , just mass computer generation , but also restricting the food supply by literally forcing people into starvation . This all engineered to reduce world population by creating mass genocide .
This is just more of the same poliscience, based on a required political outcome.
Thank you for being on the ball Senator.
Queensland, like all of Australia, today is ruled by wokism. People with ideological fixations agitate to create media coverage with the intent of swaying public and political opinion, regardless of factual merit. This applies to most issues, including the subject fishing ban, blaming manmade CO2 for climate change, trying to shift the blame for Aboriginal issues onto anyone except Aborigines themselves, and claiming that a multicultural population is superior rather than divisive when an April 2022 survey by research firm Dynata for the Institute of Public Affairs found that only about 46 percent of Australians would fight to defend Australia.
Australia needs politicians with conviction and enough intelligence to see ‘smoke and mirrors’ where such exist. These politicians must ensure the public is factually informed about issues before decisions are taken.
This is incredibly unconscionable based on computer model which is fake. I really don’t know what Palaszczuk is thinking about but in my view we have plenty mackerel fish in Australia.
Notice how the Government is out to destroy businesses especially over the last 2 years and got off with it!
Where are all the rich yachties that should be jumping up and down regarding fishing! Why don’t they just give away our fishing grounds to feed Asia?
No different with the solar panels. Feeding Asia/China and giving away our future too far away shores. Instead of building a vaccine factory that employs a few for disputed gain, why not make our own panels and employ those who cannot even put a roof over their heads let alone buy bait to have a fish occasionally ,,, oh that will be illegal wont it!!
If C02 is such a problem why aren’t countries calling for massive tree planting exercises??
All the way from Tweed Heads to the gulf I see tinnies and boats, good luck with your BS science. They should remove fish from the government food court and replace it with maggots and crickets(after all it is about sustainable development and they should sat an example).
Mal, it’s not about the fish.
This is all about control of our food and our right to eat what we want.
It’s coming from the WEF, government is just doing what they are told.
Eat ze bugs, as they say.
Nothing is a coincidence.
Aussies by nature are oblivious to what is going on past our beaches and the eminent threat to our way of life, that’s why, in this case, most voted for our present leaders.
If they only knew and they will soon enough, we collectively would tell them we don’t want the Weffers agenda for humanity.
Let’s hope they wake up sooner rather than later, or we are fucked like our northern hemisphere cousins.
The whole global thing and there cultural war on us is deep seeded and will take a collective effort to banish it.
So much is toxic, from the private and central banking cartels, ADL and the zionists that plot in secret for there ideological supremacy and a seeming endless supply of nits wits in government which enable it all.
Met a homeless guys today, he was looking for somewhere to rest tonight, I would have offered him a bed, but my bed is offered to me as I have no permanent fixed abode myself.
Again, it’s been planned for many years.
So, it not about the fish, it about people being self sufficient and choosing to eat want they want, commercial fishing is just the small target, the big target is the angler catching food to feed his family.
Remember, during the Covid pandemonium, anglers were prohibited from going fishing, even on their own.
Thanks for you valued efforts Mal, go well mate.
Paul
How do we the people put a stop to this tyrannical load of bull. The government is hell bent on destroying our livelihood, our food chain, our cost of living, our education, our health, our family units, our retirement, our FREEDIMS. 🙏
How do we the people put a stop to this tyrannical load of bull. The government is hell bent on destroying our livelihood, our food chain, our cost of living, our education, our health, our family units, our retirement, our FREEDOM🙏
We love the work that you do and your straight forwardness. Keep on the good work mate.
In my opinion, it is all about the attempt to control our food supply/ us the people. We are seeing Gates buy up massive parcels of land & looking to produce cricket/ bug factories as an alternative to good healthy food found naturally from our planet earth.We see posts on the puppets of the agenda entering our schools & feeding bugs to our children with-out parent consent ! I have seen cows all laying dead in fields, mega food plants burning & the real threat to our food supply. It is then obvious the world famous comments of Klauze Schwab “”you will own nothing, eat bugs and be happy about it”” I guess if we spoke out & said our real thoughts our new communistic credit score would plummet, so what choice is there.It’s all about controlling the food supply & us the people, “”the people who survive the population agenda that is (brought to us by B. Gates himself, looking proud as he smirks when speaking about population control, the vaccines & his mega profits. We have been sold out to Corporate foreign entities (Just check “”Who owns Australia”” on YouTube, it shows you we are losing our country. Please find a way to get out of the U.N and any connections to WEF. Thank you
Keep up the fantastic work you and One Nation do Malcolm. We need more brave honest people like you in this country to get us out of the hands of the globalist banksters and back on track again as the prosperous country we once were!
