Disclosures:
In total, 35 current and former national leaders appear in the leak, alongside 400 public officials from nearly 100 countries and more than 100 billionaires.[14] Some of the activities were legal according to the country's tax laws. Some files were showing the date of 1970, but they were actually created between the years 1996 to 2020. The data included 130 billionaires listed by Forbes, over 330 politicians, celebrities, members of royal families and religious leaders. Among those names are former British prime minister Tony Blair, Chilean president Sebastián Piñera, former Kenyan president Uhuru Kenyatta, Montenegrin president Milo Đukanović, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Qatari emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, United Arab Emirates prime minister and Dubai ruler Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Gabonese president Ali Bongo Ondimba, Lebanese prime minister Najib Mikati,[15] Ecuadorian president Guillermo Lasso, family members of former Argentine president Mauricio Macri and his spin-doctor, Ecuadorian Jaime Durán Barba,[16][17][18] and Cypriot president Nicos Anastasiades.[19][20] More than 100 billionaires, 29,000 offshore accounts, 30 current and former leaders, and 336 politicians[21] were named in the first leaks on 3 October 2021.[1][11]
King Abdullah II of Jordan is one of the main figures named in the papers, with documents showing he had invested over US$100 million in property across the US and UK, including houses in Malibu, California,[22] Washington, D.C., London and Ascot.[23][24] A UK company controlled by Cherie Blair was shown to have acquired a £6.45 million property in London by purchasing Romanstone International Limited, a British Virgin Islands company; had the property been acquired directly, £312,000 would have been payable in stamp duty. Tony Blair's name appears in a statement of joint income for the associated mortgage.[25]
The papers also reveal how an office block owned by Azerbaijan's ruling Aliyev family was sold to the Crown Estate, the UK sovereign's public estate, for £66 million in 2018, netting the Aliyevs a £31 million profit. Another office block worth £33 million was sold to the family in 2009, and was gifted to the son of Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev, Heydar.[5] According to Las Vegas Sun, "Members of the inner circle of Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan are accused of hiding millions of dollars in wealth in secret companies or trusts".[26] Supporters of former Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko accused his successor Zelensky, who came to power on an anti-corruption campaign, of tax evasion.[27] Elsewhere, close associates of Russian president Vladimir Putin, like Svetlana Krivonogikh and Gennady Timchenko, were revealed to have secret assets in Monaco, and Czech prime minister Andrej Babiš, who had campaigned on promising to crack down on corruption and tax evasion, did not declare the use of an offshore investment company in the purchase of eight properties, including two villas, in Mougins on the French Riviera for £12 million.[5][28][29] As a result of the Pandora Papers, more information emerged about Russia-linked, allegedly Kremlin-linked, donations to the Tories.[30] Uhuru Kenyatta was also mentioned, despite being quoted in 2018 as stating, "Every public servant's assets must be declared publicly so that people can question and ask – what is legitimate?"[11] Kenyatta and six members of his family have been linked to 13 offshore companies.[31] The leaked list also includes transnational criminal organization leaders, such as Raffaele Amato, boss of the Amato-Pagano clan, a clan within the Camorra, dedicated to international drug trafficking. Amato used a shell company in the UK to buy land and real estate in Spain.[32][33][34]

Will these (alleged) criminals ever see a courtroom?
Pricewaterhouse Coopers operates in Australia.
The Commonwealth Bank of Australia, has committed over 13,000 criminal offences, being a money laundering facility, quite literally above the law, still operates in Australia.
How do you deal with corrupt govenrment departments, polticians etc?
You don't go to them, as they're the problem?
You don't go to the mainstrream media, as they're part of the problem too, you 'leak' it online in the most anonymous way possible.
The ATO allegedly vowed that 'no stone is left unturned' regarding 400 Australian names.
So, how did that go two and bit years later?
So what's the blowback from this whole fiasco regarding the people/corporations etc mentioned?
Brethren protecting their own, would be an appropriate response.
Yet, when the authorities accuse a serf of a (say road related) 'crime', the remedy for the authorities is swift.
That's life in a colony.
The world has changed dramatically since 2020, where governments and corporations have lied and forced people into actions that are against medical practices, where also ‘human rights’ have been (unlawfully) thrown under a bus.
Tens of thousands of Australians have also been unlawfully issued Infringement Notices, where they have been withdrawn en masse, after a challenge in the Supreme Court in NSW meaning they were invalid to begin with, where police acted dishonestly in the first place, under dictation from the government, which has been downplayed by the mainstream media, but that is a separate and quite lengthy topic in itself.
The topic of this post is that of price gouging Australian consumers/shoppers/corporate fodder or generally anyone that participates in the ‘economy’.
One of the government’s priorities, apart from looking after the safety of its (own) people is this behemoth called the economy.
What is good for the economy may not be good for the people.
Governments require a strong economy, meaning the serfs keeping busy spending, purchasing imported goods, leaving cash behind, using credit cards, loans to acquire goods services etc.
Those little mice need to keep the wheels of industry turning.
Restricting people from using cash is also a high priority for governments and corporations, as ‘going cashless’ is for the purpose of monitoring and collecting data for next level analytics, which also includes limiting actions/movements, e.g. you cannot get a home loan because you have too many smashed avo meals at restaurants or you eat too much junk food, where you are the author of your own health issues so medical care for certain illnesses will be denied.
Some people may call the above a ‘conspiracy theory’ but the above examples are a fact, paying specific attention that medical care has been denied for many as they have, for example, not succumbed to a trial drug forced by governments and medical practitioners without full disclosure of the ingested product.
According to the law medical care must be give to every person, without prejudice or conditions, which has not been the case in Australia.
MANY people in government should give themselves a pat on the back, as they have taken action to boost the economy significantly therefore making their bosses and the banking giants super rich, putting aside 'big pharma'.
The people in government deliberately created the ‘housing crisis’ by dumping more immigrants (also referred to a debt slaves/corporate fodder) than the general population/infrastructure can handle.
While then Premier Dan Andrews unlawfully installed a martial law type lockup of Victorians the government imported over thirty thousand Chinese nationals under the cover of darkness.
The supply to demand ratio quickly changed where prices skyrocketed, putting many Australians into financial hardship, below the (Henderson) poverty line into the streets/tents/cars for accommodation with little to no reprieve from those who created the problem in the first place.
The government also 'punishes' you for being poor:
As with all this hopelessness, and no sign of help, in despair some have taken their lives.
Apperently road traffic fines are all about 'if it saves one life', as 'marketed' in Victoria under the 'Towards Zero' campaign, a number the authorities are fully aware will NEVER occur.
But all that does not matter, as the housing crisis action alone triggered other actions which brought in huge revenue, in the form of tax dollars for those in government, so that their pensions after their useless tenure ( to the general population) will be secured to support a life of luxury for their family members.
Building costs have (artificially) skyrocketed in the process, creating more debt for the ‘debt slaves’ to the (immense) pleasure of the banking world.
Since 2020, goods and services/’consumer’ items/’things’ have gone up anything from one hundred to five hundred percent, with no real justifiable cause, even though the pandemic is often heard as an excuse, where (deliberately) zero intervention from the authorities that monitor this, yet the government continues to falsify the Consumer Price and Living Cost indexes, where in reality we (Australia) are in a recession.
Another couple of items high on governments agendas are to lie to the general population without transparency which the people in the Australian Government are excellent at, supported by their corrupt ‘brethren’ in the judiciary and to install a level of pain, be it financial, mental or emotional to a (well defined) level that is below the general population rioting.
Paying two to five times for ‘things’ is GREAT for the ‘economy’, but not really for you, right?
ZERO intervention on this just shows you how much the government ‘cares’ about you, the lowly serf.
So why is there a push for your alleged ‘health’ to forcibly take a trial drug?
