Melbourne Metro restrictions

Re: Melbourne Metro restrictions
I don't know what it's like where you live but it's business as usual over here - and then some. Driving through Welshpool, Cannington, Kewdale (industrial areas) the other day and every second company has a sign out front advertising for staff. Shops all packed (Costco always rammed). Can't get 2nd hand cars, caravans etc for love nor money. All good at the moment.

After today's announcements, Andrews is an A-grade Muppet. He's nothing more than a hateful, controlling prick

It's not too bad where I am too (NSW, close to the ACT). Same situation with 2nd hand cars, caravans, etc. We sold a caravan a couple of years ago, but we wish if we'd kept it now - today it would be worth at least 50% more than we sold it for back then. For the most part life seems to be going on pretty much normal around here.

Perth seems pretty busy to me. One of the upshots of the WA hard border is I don't need to get on that long flight and can use Teams instead. Winner winner.

We see more than enough of that now.

Re: Melbourne Metro restrictions
Well no. Laissez faire economics has proven to be a big failure, which is what you are advocating. A government is or should be governing and not simply managing. Other wise the rich and powerful will ride rough shot over others, including government by undue influencing.
We see more than enough of that now.

Re: Melbourne Metro restrictions
Meanwhile, back in Melbourne, the Chairman is losing his grip. A bunch of healthy kiwis, willing to spend their South Pacific peso in Victoria's smashed economy are in Dan's sights. He can't find 10 of them. That must be eating Dan up.
Here's an idea Dan, put quarantine on your border like Queensland has done. It's a waste of money and it may not work in Victoria but it should give you back control.

Re: Melbourne Metro restrictions
The chairman is seriously going for eradication with the continuation of these rules. That means he will have to totally shut borders to maintain it moving forward. That means no hotel quarantine from any state or abroad. No one in or out. Total economy destroying bubble. Good luck Victoria.

Question should be is NSW Premier position tenable now that the findings have been released on corruption charges on part of former lover and her knowledge of matter?
