“It is a shocking
development to learn that the WHO will gain jurisdiction over controlling
Australia’s health programs a day after the Federal Election.
“It is well known
that China is a major contributor to and has a high degree of influence over
the World Health Organisation. The WHO has been rightly criticised for
pro-China bias in the past.
“It should be
concerning to all Australians who value freedom and democracy that our health
policies could fall under the influence of communist China.
“For too long we
have seen governments take greater control over our lives, this is a step too
far.
“The only way we
can stop foreign governments controlling the level of health care that
Australians receive is to vote for change on election day.
“Governments
never give back freedom they take from their people. The people have to take it
back,’’ Mr Palmer said.
“Only the United
Australia Party is committed to saving Australians from the overreach of power
and unwarranted control and suppression that both sides of government have
shown us in the last few years.
“Freedom
forever,’’ he said.
