Anti-masker and self-described exorcist claimed to have treated a ‘former Australian PM’

An anti-masker and self-described exorcist who refused to wear a mask at Bunnings claimed to have healed an Australian prime minister.

“Bunnings anti-masker” Lizzy Rose once claimed to have healed a former Australian Prime Minister.

The self-described witch, psychic and exorcist became one of the faces of the anti-mask movement over the weekend after she filmed herself proudly maskless in protest against the chief medical officer’s mandatory mask directive during a trip to Bunnings.

News.com.au visited Ms Rose at her home on the outskirts on Melbourne in 2017 and saw first hand the kind of work she claims to do.

But another interview has resurfaced in recent days. Speaking with journalism students Fatima Halloum and Helena Abdou from Macleay College, Ms Rose said: “I’ve had people from Parliament. Our Australian Government, believe it or not.

“Two councillors, a mayor and a former prime minister of this country who has come in here not for demonic possession or exorcism but healing of sorts from negative energies. 

“So everyone from judges, lawyers, doctors, surgeons, hippies, the homeless. Children, newborn babies.”

She did not reveal which former Australian PM she claims to have treated.

In a video recorded during her trip to Bunnings over the weekend, Ms Rose claimed she had the right to refuse to wear a mask.

“As we know, I have every legal right to protect my health and myself, and I am exempt and I have all the documents to prove it. So let’s see what happens,” she tells the camera.

“It’s interesting, isn’t it, how so many people are so fearful. It’s so sad that people are just so fearful of what they’re told, what they’re programmed. It’s really, really sad,” she says.

“They don’t actually – they’re all zombies, and they’re not actually researching and looking at the statistics and looking at the facts.”

She goes on but it’s really much of the same. The point is, she doesn’t care much for being told what to wear (unless it’s by staff at her local nail salon).

It would appear old mate from Bunnings who refused to wear a mask in her protest video was only happy to do so at the request of a nail salon during her “dreamy eyelash consultation” in June. @newscomauHQ pic.twitter.com/mpHsxnOZdW

Worth noting when you’re discussing the Bunnings anti-masker that she’s not anti masks as such. She happily wore one in April, before the mandatory ban. She’s of the anti-authority, sovereign citizen variety. Her own comments are her undoing. @newscomauHQ pic.twitter.com/jIjpNoB4Zt

When our reporter Megan Palin visited Ms Rose at her Cranbourne home in 2017, she was told that every neighbour in the street had moved out when she moved in 15 years ago.

“I did a spell with a 2km radius to banish everybody that was negative and almost everybody moved out except an old man across the road who is gorgeous,” Ms Rose, now 50, said.

She told news.com.au she was raised by an “extremely strict” mother in Adelaide and later Mt Gambier who was a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

“We weren’t allowed to have a TV, so I had no stimuli from the outside world,” she said.

She revealed that during her childhood she was herself subjected to a “scary exorcism”. She was just four years old at the time.

Lizzy Rose burns masks but also wears them to the beautician.

Her home was littered with trinkets to ward off evil. A basket of ram skulls at the foot of the front door. Symbols painted with human blood above the door frame. Piles of witchcraft books, crystals, herbs, incense, potions and other ingredients believed to stimulate magic covered the tables.

Ms Rose told news.com.au she charged $750 for a “full-blown exorcism” which she insists is the real deal.

Her Instagram is full of pictures from her pagan rituals, but more recently she has begun sharing anti-government messages. She burned a pair of disposable face masks in a video on July 19 but was previously pro-masks.

On June 12 she shared a photograph at the nail salon wearing a mask during a “dreamy eyelash consultation”.

Lizzy Rose calls herself a ‘celebrity psychic’.

In April, she was pictured wearing a mask and gloves with her hand on her heart. She wrote: “I urge everyone, the minute you step outside please wear a mask and gloves, don’t listen to the government saying that you don’t need to.

“Why do doctors and nurses wear personal protective equipment? Because the virus is invisible and contraction is airborne. We can all contract COVID-19. We could all be carriers of the coronavirus. We could also be immune to the virus. We could have already had the virus and recovered. We could currently have the virus and think it’s just a mild flu and therefore not seek testing.

“Don’t be fooled, the virus is real.”
