Whilst it is true that Morrison was fanatic about opening up the borders from day one, therefore he is claiming credit for now, that the States have finally decided it is OK, - it is not his decision.

If it had been up to Morrison, basically just a trump clone, there would have been no lock-downs and we would have been in the same position as America, with covid gone mad, ever increasing death rates, hospitals struggling to cope etc. so I think we need to look at the situation in perspective, - what we have now is Despite Morrison, not Because of Morrison.

And, indisputably, the States have the support of the people of Australia, so it is the people of Australia that have created the freedom we have had to work for, - for some very hard, but worth it now, and now we have an opportunity to create a better Australia, if only Morrison and his extreme right monsters, can step aside and let us have a go.

After all, the politicians are elected to serve us the people, their real job is to help, not control, US.

I wonder why WA is the exception, and that seems to be okay.  When it was us (Qld), we were inundated nightly with attacks against our Premier.  Well, the Qld voters spoke out about that, loud and clear.  

On another note, I think the above two posts are interesting.  For many years I was a swinging voter, straddling the centre line happily, deciding more or less at the last moment which way I would jump.   In a conversation with a long time friend a few years ago, (a friend incidentally who is firmly on the right), a comment he made stayed with me.  He said that eventually, you have to pick a side. 

Well, I picked a side, I picked the left.  The two posts above perfectly display why I did.  Others may disagree but the way I see those posts and almost any political discussion these days, are one side putting a political point of view across and the other side attacking not just the point of view but the poster.  I may be blinded by my admitted bias, but it always seems to fall the same way.

If you don't like a states rules then move . Those in power can not please everyone but you can please yourself where you live. 

Robo, by the way, the Federal Government is supposed to monitor the function of Aged Care homes (their responsibility)

Federal funds go to the many private operators in this area, The operators ran under staffed under resourced businesses.

If you feel the need to blame somebody for those deaths check with the Federal Government. It is not Dan Andrews fault that those people died.

Ediie you idiot Andrews caused the problem in the first place with his failed Quarantine, no one would have died if it had been completed as other states did. Perhaps your silly Pub;lic service brain can't quite get that to sink in you need to get in the real world

Robo, Eddie is not an idiot, and your assertion is unproven, so the situation is that you simply disagree, and your fascination with insults is totally inappropriate.

Well.....

Feel for those who are still stewing about the borders...they did their job and a job well done! Thank you State Premiers...you did your job and tackled a situation we have never seen the likes of before... in an admirable way!

I am particularly happy because our daughter arrived from Sydney yesterday and although she will be doing 14 days of self quarantine in our shack in the country, I am delighted she is able to come at all. 

You won't hear her complain either..she is using those two weeks to work at home and then spending a further two weeks with family when she gets the all clear. Her partner is happy finally, to be able to hug his own Mom and Dad in another state. All's well that ends well....

May be interesting to some of your family?
