MT: "You mean the guy that is president of the country now in crisis with the most Covid-19 cases after claiming a few weeks ago it was a hoax  :shh."

WTF? That is fake news and not even related to what I side.

You lefties are a joke

Yep - even debunked by the left-leaning Snopes....but most of the obedient little Chicomrades are sticking to the script and still running with it... Senile Joe the Hair Sniffer -who otherwise has been strangely quiet of late - even using it in his latest campaign ad...:shh

So are we still slow to react Andy? Or are you reserving your judgement now?

We can judge on what has been delivered so far and it's been a great team effort led by a great PM.

Everything  else you said has been spot on in that we need to keep pushing and pushing with the full arm of the law.

https://7news.com.au/lifestyle/health-wellbeing/australian-coronavirus-cases-are-trending-towards-a-lower-infection-rate-c-769622?fbclid=IwAR3aUxyH_s9-QRyQeMRUHAbqOrASvGsRXgi_Yj-3Uik2ZG8M1DMzlpJBMiI

Yes, the lockdown should have happened 2-3 weeks ago and been more strict. Look around you, it's basically business as usual. Few people working from home, a bunch of small businesses that have been F'd over, but largely everyone is going about their business without a care in the world.

20% of returning travelers gave fake addresses. Several haven't followed self isolation protocols. If it was up to me people would be fined on the spot for not following the lockdown and going to the beach etc.

I saw this as a health professional working in a hospital. The effect it will have on our community goes so far beyond confirmed cases and deaths. The prolonged effect on the economy and health sector etc.


Wuhan locked down at 400 confirmed cases more or less.

FINALLY

although it should have been part of the 1st Stimulus package

Well done Scotty from Marketing of putting in place a wage subsidy package - it is so desperately needed

Will help all Australians, ALL.

thank you  :clapping

Did he give anything to pensioners or the disabled. Or has he just helped business again. I dont support a wage subsidy. Itll sink us financially into a black hole of debt.

Pensioners and disabled got extra money in the 1st package. One off payments

Wage subsidy is the right option, keeps people off welfare, enables business to start up again

It's a winner

And don't know how to break this to you but we are already in deep debt. Debt has escalated under this govt

A few predictions:
  • Franking credits are gone (by-partisan) before the next election
  • Negative gearing is gone (by-partisan) before the next election
  • Scott Morrison retires to Hawaii before the next election

A winner if he can pull it off.


And if he does I'll consider voting for him.

Jump in cases overnight in Victoria

96 new cases

Clearly we are not as on top of this as we need to be

Also great to see a fine handed out to a bar in Fitzroy for not follwoing the rules. $10k fine  :clapping
