#FreeMelbourne with David Limbrick MP

David Limbrick MP is a member of Victoria’s Legislative Council (the upper house). A long-time member of the LDP (www.ldp.org.au) he has risen to fame during Victoria’s COVID-19 lockdowns for being one of the only politicians to stand for basic human rights such as school children returning to school. David has also been providing scrutiny on the government’s State of Emergency laws through the PAEC (Parliamentary Accounts and Estimates Committee) where he has argued that the Victorian Labor government is not following the laws that require proportionality in any restrictions imposed. --------------------------------------------- Watch this episode on Youtube: https://youtu.be/CqlSCfOqZZw Follow David: https://twitter.com/_davidlimbrick https://www.facebook.com/davidlimbrickldp/ --------------------------------------------- 02:15 Our rights have been under attack for a long time 04:17 Why David entered politics 06:43 Why libertarianism 08:45 The criticism of free markets 10:17 Big companies love regulation 12:53 Freedom is fragile 15:12 Australia takes freedom for granted 16:33 State of Emergency powers 20:58 The Public Health and Wellbeing Act (Vic) 22:53 The lockdown of public housing towers 23:31 Victorian Governments actions are not in line with the Public Health and Wellbeing Act (Vic) 24:10 Governments refuse to release scientific evidence 27:45 Covid-19 vaccine 33:04 Mandating through coercion 36:25 The disproportionate mask mandate 40:01 Should people or the Government be responsible for a person’s health? 42:24 Decentralising power to the people who are on the ground 46:02 How history will remember human rights breaches 47:25 What the political centre think 50:25 Do lockdowns work? 51:08 What is going to happen in the colder months March/April? 55:55 David’s protest experience on the steps of parliament 1:03:19 COVID-19 fines and if they’ll even make it to court 1:05:59 Governmental sledgehammer: making everything mandatory 1:08:03 Global embrace of big government 1:10:37 Political champions 1:12:23 There is no reason to extend the Victorian State of Emergency
