Following a second wave of Corona infections that dwarfs the first wave due to bungling by the Labor government, Victoria has been locked down again and effectively locked out by every other state.

"Victorians are officially the pariahs of the nation, with NSW closing the state border. Victorians are literally banned from the rest of our country. The border closure is a stiff economic penalty for regional communities along the Murray River, which are being punished for the negligence of Daniel Andrews and his ministers to manage hotel quarantine.

We also have 3000 residents of nine public housing estates under house arrest and the rest of our suburbs and an adjoining shire back to stage-three lockdown because Andrews decided to use bouncers who fraternised with returned travellers in quarantine and spread the virus into the northern and western suburbs of Melbourne. The government proposes replacing private security with a mixture of prison officers and laid-off staff from Qantas and Jetstar to manage the mess. You couldn’t make this up.

The commonwealth offered the deployment of the Australian Defence Force, for free, to the states for the task of managing hotel quarantine. Every state that accepted this offer has not had one single transmission of the virus."

Yes, it is alarming.

Because of the bungle, it will now be much harder to contain.

Might be time to rethink Federation and get rid of the states, although that is probably beyond our idiot politicians.

the whole atmosphere of fear created by the health bureaucrats, lying left media (mainly abc) and both Federal and State Governments has been disgraceful. They always seem to pick the wrong 'experts' to listen to. Why we did not encourage the vulnerable to be keep themselves safe and carry on with life with proper hygiene and social distancing will be a question asked for generations to come. The State ruled by socialism has proven to be the worse in management as it is one rule for the 'elite' and rebellious and another for the golfer or fisherman. The closure of State borders has been a disgraceful political stunt that has simply punished business again. Not one public servant lot their job while the regressives at abc cry poor with a billion plus a year to spread their misinformation. The 10 to a funeral while allowing all the anarchists and foolish ones to march under the lie of blm was nothing short of disgraceful.

If they didn't have the BLM protest marches all would probably be ok.
Btw, what's the Demographic of these so-called hot spots ?

Tonight we hear a plane load of Mexicans were let off without scrutiny at Sydney Airport...you can't make this up, it's beyond farce !
