Ex-chef's face off Facebook

In other news, Australian ex-celebrity chef Pete Evans has finally been kicked off Facebook for spreading conspiracy theories about Covid-19. He had previously been fined $25,000 for trying to sell a ‘Bio Charger' device as a fake coronavirus cure via a livestream on the platform.
Back in April he was in the news for passing on and making up stories on Instagram. The stories were a reaction to New Zealand's lockdown, which resulted in us all being able to spend the holiday season with family and friends, unlike many countries where social distancing is still in place and for some now dealing with new Covid-19 variants, getting stricter.
One idea Mr. Evans was very vocal about was that kiwis had better wake up because after lockdown, we were all about to be put under martial law as part of the Prime Minister's plot to control us.
Well, that's it from me. It's nearly time for my once a month allotted 5-minute outdoor time in our #NZhellhole and I don't want to be late and get on the bad side of our benevolent dictator. Tootles!
