Gladys Berejiklian in trouble?

[QuietB]

stay at home orders for 4 Local government areas for 1 week

This does not work. We have tried this already

 

[Ned_Flanders]

yep clear as mud

also no curfew, no time limit on exercise mentioned.....

just do it properly for 5-7 days or dont bother at all

Ive said it before and I'll say it again - i dont wish this on Sydney at all, and given we are conditioned to lockdown and they arent, I'd genuinely it rather be us than them (no need for all of us to be ****ed up)

HOWEVER

4 LGA only? Victoria's infection came from outside there, and the west is appearing more and more in the updates. i fear that they are repeating the mistake of victoria with the north melbourne lockdown, which only slowed the spread instead of stopping/reducing it

 

[sherb]

Sounds like same rules as Melbourne lockdown, but can't bring herself to say it.

"Lockdown" and "gold standard" just don't go well together.

 

[spinynorman]

This does not work. We have tried this already

It worked in the Northern Beaches, but there's a huge difference between that area and the City of Sydney.

 

[QuietB]

Don’t blame me for Sydney cluster, it’s NSW’s problem: PM

Scott Morrison says the NSW government has failed to enforce mandatory vaccinations, allowing the virus to spread through a Sydney limousine driver.

At least Sqotty's non partisan when it throwing people under the bus to save his own sorry arse.

He answered every single question yesterday with Australia is safe / taking credit for the work of others. His staff will be working furiously on a new slogan

 

[Ned_Flanders]

You have to respect that don't you Gough. Scomo staying non partisan, adhering strictly to his constitutional responsibilities, regardless of the state involved.

its ballsy politics - he has literally nailed himself to the NSW gold standard, had his ministers trashing victoria for a year, and he now turns on her. He can win without victoria, but he needs gains in nsw. brave move against a popular premier, esp with potatohead in the wings

 

[jerry springer]

yeah **** me she needs to shut this shit down

 

[Ned_Flanders]

yeah fu** me she needs to shut this sh*t down

times like this NSWCROW is glad hes a fat bald poor ****

 

[ExcitementMachine]

Well its astra zenica or bust for 60 plus Sydney aiders...

 

[Gough]

You have to respect that don't you Gough. Scomo staying non partisan, adhering strictly to his constitutional responsibilities, regardless of the state involved.

What I see is a shifty and untrustworthy man who'll do literally anything to insulate himself from any sort of accountability.

 

[sherb]

Err, no you don't.

The only thing you could respect Sqomo for is resigning. Sooner rather than later.

Any respect for him otherwise would be on a paid basis (to any potential respector) only.

 

[QuietB]

Correct. The northern beaches is almost an island. Inner city Sydney and the west is not.

Local LGA shutdowns is a huge mistake.

 

[Deliverance]

So in Vic we call that "lock down" right?

No. Only when it's statewide, including LGAs that have never had a single covid case ever, it's a lockdown. They'll probably need this eventually, but at least they didn't shit the bed, and had a crack at controlling it without fear and panic we see here.

Have you forgotten what happened in Victoria's first lockdown which didn't work? Remember, when they tried to just limit it to a few LGAs?

NSW are making the same mistake as Victoria made last year as if they haven't learnt a thing. It's so infuriating that they're hesitating and gambling with people's lives.

The consequence of letting the virus out is far too high (see Victoria 2020) to not be erring on the side of caution. 1,000 Primary close contacts from just one hair-dressers.

Shut it down or bear the consequences.

 

[Gigantic]

yeah fu** me she needs to shut this sh*t down

Has Joe Bailey recruited a couple Edward Scissorhands to work for him?

900 clients is a lot for a hairdresser is it not? I wonder across how many days

 

[jerry springer]

ok question was just asked

if you live north of sydney but work in those 4 LGAs do you have to stay at home(north of sydney)?

gladys said yes

 

[swingdog]

Correct. The northern beaches is almost an island. Inner city Sydney and the west is not.

Local LGA shutdowns is a huge mistake.

This feels like where we were when we tried locking down Brunswick West. That lasted less than a week from memory before metro wide lockdown.

 

[adogsfan5]

Has Gladys gone with .. this isn’t a lockdown.. but it’s actually a lockdown? Lol..

This is when Politics takes over from Public Health, the far right will always try to protect the Political agenda at the expensive of Public Health

It is not ballsy. Nothing he does has courage associated with it.

It is convenient and opportunistic and outright lazy and incompetent.

The only thing Morrison does is messaging. And when that message turns to shit he moves on to a new message.

That is not ballsy.

its ballsy because victoria is now scorched earth for the libs thanks to this same approach. chucking the premier under the bus risks a similar consequence in NSW, and that will cost him the election.

But he does not do it out of courage.

He does it because speaking shit is the ONLY thing he is capable of.

I think once you can't go to Kmart, it's a lockdown.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Gladys doesn't even have enforceable mask rules.

NSW police still "investigating" the limo driver even though Premier Berejiklian openly admits the guidelines to wear a mask aren't enforceable (they weren't written in public health order). Police even engaged senior counsel to help find an offence.

 

[jerry springer]

Press finally growing a set and asking some decent questions
