The PM wants to bring forward the reopening of our international boarders. Obviously the university sector, & Qantas are bringing pressure to bear.

Just chatting to a few around here, Queensland so actually legal to talk to friends, I have no doubt such a reopening, & the boost in infections it most definitely will bring, will be the death of him, & his party.

To hell with special interests, lets get this country up & running, if that is possible, & all state & interstate lockdowns are a bad memory, before betting the farm that vaccination is the all pervading answer.

Keep the international boarders shut until all lockdowns are just a bad memory.

Dear Hasbeen,

I totally agree with you on this one.

So long as people arrive only into infected areas where people and governments gave up on eliminating the virus, that's fine because it makes no difference in terms of COVID risks.

BUT, if they live in a safe area then it makes no sense for them to arrive because they will be stuck away from their homes anyway, better for them to remain overseas.

Kudos Hasbeen.

Yes. It would be the height of stupidity to open borders to anyone outside Australia when Australians cannot move freely about their own country.

What would appear to make the federal government even more confused - or mad and disloyal to Australians if you like - is the fact that while continuing to block 38,000 Australian citizens from Australia, they allowed 60,000 immigrants, many from China, to enter Australia in the same period.
