go_banana posted:Numbers look... worsening for NSW. I reckon Federal LNP will announce some form of assistance to NSW and we will be in a proper lockdown by Monday, if not earlier. If they let it out of the bag like Hazzard suggests, they'll lose both Federal and State elections. Edit: This is on top of face masks being mandatory for those attending school next week, could be a big wake up call to the community when they get whiff their little loved ones are being affected. I wonder what the LNP think about jobkeeper/increased jobseeker in hindsight. A panicked over reaction?

Honestly in hindsight NSW cops responding to calls for more stringent lockdown by sending mounted cops into typically diverse low income areas was predictable.

Kinda fuckin wild reading newscorp people wailing on Mark McGowan on twitter today. Like how deep do the brainworms get with these people. I dislike labor almost as much as I dislike the libs. Neoliberal boorish cunts the lot of them. BUT, its hard to deny we've done pretty well considering over here compared to the "Gold Standard". And after its bruising last year, victoria is doing decently too. But I gota say it. My venoms reserved for Scott Morison for scaring all the boomers about AstraZenica. A vaccine so safe its lterally safer than asprin *for people in the 'dangerous' demographic* (young women). And the lack of common sense in the govt means we've essentially delayed vaccination months as a result because the LNP literally has no strategy for any of this exept "Have media events with army mans". gently caress I hate this country. I just want Canbera to be utterly beset with Covid , while RUpes, Gladys and gang are chained to a pole in town square for the covid vomit zombies to chew on, and leave the loving rest of us alone.

She got her arse roundly criticized for it, and was forced to make a public apology. Doesn't mean it won't work this time though.

It came from Bondi and the inner West is now paying for it. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-07...post-1202027735 Last night over drinks I had a good whinge about how how the more mobile jobs or those that can't WFH are a) at higher risk of catching COVID and b) the jobs more likely to be lost due to COVID. You can't do much about how unfair that is but driving the stigma against people in those positions is a poo poo move.

Vic Govt's payment for people having to isolate due to being a close contact or waiting for a test result really helped to increase the testing rates for casuals. NSW hasn't put up anything similar have they?

I think we need to re-examine our strategy for NSW, instead of walling them out we should start walling them in. Border communities can hold a plebiscite to determine which side of the wall they end up on.
