When trying to bring normalcy back to Australia whilst at the same time trying to reduce COVID-19 cases we musn't let perfect be the enemy of good.

Is anyone aware of how the Qld CHO is selected? I am genuinely interested in how we went from Doctor Young to this stone cold weirdo.

Today is the day! Vaccine mandates are now in force for >75% of jobs in WA. Will there be mass unemployment and wide scale collapse of the economy due to the sheer number of people standing by their convictions? Nope Will there be a flood of people at the vaccination centres? Maybe Will the coworkers of the recently fired have to work harder to make up for it? Nope, they were almost certainly dead weight

Is there anything in place in our democratic system to protect against Labor starting a bullet train project, spending billions, then the libs getting re elected and immediately gutting it?

Melbourne-Sydney high-speed rail is easily the most unhinged political issue in this country. I know otherwise reasonable people from all over the political spectrum who think it's a slam-dunk no-brainer of an infrastructure project that we should've started building 10 years ago based on nothing more than fond memories about the one time they caught a high-speed train while backpacking in Japan or Spain.

Whilst I am not pushing particularly hard for the high speed rail links. Money spent on public transport infrastructure, whether it is inter or intra city, is money well spent. Also, as the poster above me says, choo choos are cool. We could call the first one Trainy McTrainface and many wholesome laughs will be had.

High speed rail rules and is good.

Long term if we want to decarbonise it's a lot easier to take trains than to take planes. So we choose whether to set up a train between Sydney and Melbourne to maintain that fast commuter link, or we remove the need for transport between them. I'm not even particularly pro train, but as far as infrastructure goes it doesn't seem like a terrible move (as long as we use it to replace flights).

I just like the idea of hopping on the train at Spencer St and getting off in central Sydney.

This is Australia, we need to build a toll road between Sydney and Melbourne where traffic crawls to a halt at peak time.

I decided years ago I would never fly between Brisbane and Sydney ever again unless there was some emergency that required me to get there asap. Going on road trips is so much more satisfying and enjoyable and I think trains would be similar. I’ve always wanted to go on the Ghan or the Australian Pacific. If I ever win the lotto I’m taking a year to drive around the country.
