Hundreds of Queensland cops sue state over COVID jab mandates in human rights class action

Queensland news

Hundreds of current and former police officers have launched a class action lawsuit against the Queensland government and the Queensland Police Service (QPS) over COVID-19 ‘vaccine’ mandates.

The lawsuit, filed in the Brisbane Supreme Court and funded by mining magnate Clive Palmer, follows a previous court ruling that found the mandates breached human rights laws by failing to give due consideration to individual rights, though it did not rule the mandates themselves as invalid.

The officers, represented by solicitor Justin Sibley, argue that the mandates were coercive and placed undue pressure on them, with significant personal and financial repercussions for those who did not comply or sought medical exemptions.

The class action consists of three groups: those who complied, those who sought exemptions but eventually were vaccinated, and those who were suspended or terminated for non-compliance.

Former officer Luke Jones, who lost his job and suffered financial and emotional distress, is one of the lead plaintiffs. In response, Queensland Premier Steven Miles defended the mandate as crucial for public health during the pandemic. The QPS also stated that while it respects ongoing legal rights, it maintains the mandate was reasonable given the pandemic context and essential for the safety of the Queensland community.

  1. Essential for the safety of the Queensland community.

    They’re taking the piss, surely. I would love for them to demonstrate how the jabs kept anyone safe.

    The opposite would be true. It would be nice if those police start focussing on truly keeping the community safe by starting criminal investigations, rather than personal grievance

  2. The fact is that ‘no individual ‘ should ever be compelled to receive a medication or vaccine under duress or mandate….ever ….when no-one out the other side will assume responsibility for the severe adverse reactions when they occur and the situation cannot effectively and seamlessly be reversed back to pre vaccination /medication status.

  3. Facts in issue,should include the VIRUS. That’s a tangible object in the Real World. Can on have a Vaccine for a Virus that doesn’t exist. Seems one can… The onus of Proof for the production of a Virus in this Court matter is on The Crown. Now that’s going to be very interesting on what they do or do not produce. Ie the VIRUS. then they can show the WORLD the VIRUS. All Blue Machines et al, in the FEYS Countries should be bringing Classes actions against their Governments and or Businesses, that Blackmailed their employees into being Jabbed. Ps, can the Queensland Gov produce the data sets for those injured and Dead from the Vaccine roll-out. The class action victims must obtain this information for the strengthening of their Case.
