After a couple of years of major disruption, thousands of small business destroyed, little old ladies knocked down & pepper sprayed, people shot with rubber bullets, life made hard for millions with lockdowns straining the mental health of many, with a new mutation of the virus about to infest millions, it is all suddenly unnecessary.

Just as the new mutation floods the world we open up our boarder to get it here more quickly. As I said, what the hell was it all for, except to promote corruption.

Yes, all this great effort could have been worthwhile, it should have been worthwhile, but the traitorous politicians turned their backs, raised the white flag and invited the enemy in, rendering all our good efforts (not theirs!) null and void.

They did so because all they care about is their "economy".

Therefore let us hit them where it hurts them the most - in their economy!
Let us stay at home while the virus is ranging, let us minimise our consumption and expenses to the bare minimum, let their beloved GDP be at least halved.

I do also hope that some new party is elected next year that will reverse this idiocy, re-lock the borders and give us a good hard lockdown to clean up this mess.

And of course, if we cannot do it on the commonwealth level then each state should do this independently.

Any easing of restrictions is down to more people waking up to the scam and dictatorial behaviour of politicians and unelected government clerks. Even the lefty Sydney Morning Herald said, 'it's getting harder to respect the rules'. The politicians are packing the shites. Vote out as many of them as possible next year.

Its my view governments, other than the McGowan government in WA, have been premature in opening up to the new Scotty variant of the virus. Borders should have remained shut until 100% of the eligable population, 5 years and older had been double vaxxed, or been offered the vaccineene their choice, and a booster program was well on the way. After failing yet again Morrison has pushed for opening up, supposedly to line the pockets of his business buddies before Xmas.

The Marshall/Spurrier dictatorship in SA is still locking up people who DO NOT have Covid, including the Test Cricket captain. It looks as though the Marshall Liberal government will be a one-off. It's still working on 'emergency laws' when there is no longer an emergency. All governments in power, Labor or Liberal, should be voted out for their incompetence and totalitarianism. Who wants to be governed by an overpaid public clerk and a police commissioner? Oh, yeah. Australians who aren't capable of looking after their own health anymore. They need Nanny.

ttbn,

In the case of Covid how would you propose Australians look after their own health? To replace existing governments with who, those now in oppersition who agreed with the actions taken. Who then?
