Lolie posted:A post showed up on a friend of a friend's social media last night claiming that the Labor Party's history of corruption in NSW was nowhere near as bad as that of the Liberals. I literally laughed. It makes sense when you consider the difference between Neville Wran (turned a blind eye but probably wasn’t on the take) and Bob Askin (crook as Rookwood).

Even if you manage to convince Gladys stans that she was corrupt, they would reply with "so, they all are" and they'd be right.

I sincerely doubt Wran wasnt on the take - it's more he dealt with political power rather than outright brown bags of cash. He almost certainly knew where the bodies were buried and corruption def florished under his tenure so that to me is corrupt dealings.

quote:Victoria has recorded 1,763 new locally acquired cases of COVID-19 and four more deaths of people with the virus. That's worse than the highest number of daily cases NSW has had during the current outbreak. Vic health system is already groaning under the weight.

There is a reason that Melbourne spends so much time in lockdown. They're poo poo at locking down.

Given that we're supposedly reopening hospo outdoors in a few weeks, are we, uh, getting those vaccine passports we've heard so much about? Who is even doing it, the feds or the states? (We're going to end up with eight different apps aren't we... plus a ninth federal one which rolls out mid-2022 that nobody uses)

As well as lockdown fatigue I think maybe Melburnians also no longer fear the virus. Heaps of people, especially in the poorer communities in the north and west, already spent half of last year with it circulating in large numbers. They're more likely to have known somebody who caught it and had a mild case or felt poo poo but wasn't hospitalised. My Twitter feed this morning was full of people in Sydney going "Oh wow terrible numbers - feeling for Melbourne, hopefully it turns around soon " and nothing whatsoever from people in Melbourne. The collective feeling here is: eh.

The difference between how we feel now vs how we felt during lock down last year is noticeably more relaxed.

I thought they were meant to be pros at this unlike the perfidious Sydneysider Cherdeena Wynne, 26, died in hospital five days after she became unresponsive after being handcuffed by police on a side street off Albany Highway. Her family say she was mistakenly arrested by police who did not check her identity before restraining her in her mother’s house, hours before she lost consciousness. Wynne's death comes 20 years after her father, Warren Cooper, died in custody after being found unresponsive in a police watchhouse in Albany. Cooper was also 26 years old. WA Police have said they do not consider her death to be a death in custody or in police presence. ISSUES RAISED Injured in custody, force used, mental health / cognitive impairment.

Reminder that all of this stems from that limo driver in NSW not wearing PPE when he wasn't required to wear PPE and NSW's failure to stop that outbreak. The way that Melb went through multiple shorter lockdowns and seemingly got on top of those outbreaks only to have 1 weekend free before being sent into another lockdown caused by NSWs failure definitely crushed any remaining hope and confidence in the system that people had.

At least in NSW this will be accepted as proof of vaccination. It'll be integrated with the Service NSW app as well to make the checkins quicker, but the rollout timeline for that is currently "TBD".
