TONY NIKOLIC INTERVIEW #HOLDTHELINE: COVID JUSTICE, LIBERAL CHAOS & CARBON CREDIT SCAMS The XCandidates EPISODE 127 Steven Tripp and Adam Zahra are joined by Lawyer, Criminologist and Director of AFL Solicitors, Tony Nikolic. They start off by talking about the censorship that has been imposed upon Tony by the big social media giants, despite the fact that Tony is a lawyer who has begun to win many legal cases based on the information he has been spreading. That leads into a conversation about the human costs of the Pandemic, including the loss of life and loss of employment seen not only here in Australia, but around the World. The three then discuss the big news of the week, which is the current chaos in the NSW Liberal Party, which has seen the Party fail to nominate candidates in Council electorates around Sydney. Of which, one is Campbelltown, in which Adam is running as an Independent. Adam points out that he is now to only Conservative candidate running in the upcoming Council election. Lastly, Tony discusses the carbon credit system (or scam), in which credits are traded between companies. It appears to be a complex system and one not often spoken about, so Tony does his best to bring the audience up to speed on the issue.
