This Solstice BIG LIE
This is all due to the presumption of what is "North" by Eurocentric map makers.

What if what we have decided is "North" is really "South" and it really isn't WINTER here it is really SPRING and if that is the case aren't we really Australia?


Think about it.

12. Rumsfeld begins plans to attack "South Korea"

20. I was going to mention the Wizard of Christchurch
I've seen him speak a few times. Walking or rolling around town, I've passed through Cathedral Square. He's has a handfull of speeches. So it's likely, you'll hear him say the same thing. He also flogs his maps.
