A protester in Sydney calls himself "God" and disrupts a press conference JUNE 28, 2021 (See Translation in Arabic Section) NSW’s coronavirus press conference ended in bizarre scenes on Monday after a protester calling himself “God†attempted to approach Police Commissioner Mick Fuller to serve him a “cease and desist†notice. The bearded man, identified as Sean Alun-David Thomas, was dragged away from the podium by officers, with TV networks cutting away as it became clear the press conference had been hijacked. “I have a question for you,†Mr Thomas said as Mr Fuller finished answering a journalist’s question. “Did you receive my notice of cease and desist?†“It’s not your time,†Mr Fuller said. “Sorry, sorry, no, no – you were served,†Mr Thomas said, approaching the podium holding a Manila folder. “Don’t come near me,†Mr Fuller said. “You were served a notice of cease and desist last year,†Mr Thomas said. “I captured everything. I am the prime creator of this earth.†A copy of the “cease and desist†notice was handed was to media. The conspiracy-theory laden message makes references to Covid-19 vaccines, “fraudulent testing†and reptilians. Mr Thomas’ social media pages share a similar theme. On Facebook he talks about the spiritual act of sungazing in order to reach self-realisation, and posts content related to the universe, chakras and becoming a galactic society. |
