PM Morrison labels Vic lockdown extension as 'crushing' | Sky News Australia

A “road to nowhere” is how Victoria’s path out of lockdown is being described as it sparks fury from businesses. Prime Minister Scott Morrison labelled the restrictions as “crushing” and urged the state to strengthen its health response to the virus.

Call an election in tbe state remove Andrews NoConfidence DanAndrews start writing your mps and fill their damn in boxes and tell them to act or lose the next election.

Do something then...

Blah blah

It's a disgrace. Under 1000 deaths in 7 months & people still believe the pandemic narrative. I had no idea Victorians were so stupid. It's a average flu season. Renamed to cause havoc. 99+% recovery rate & these idiots supports Andrews complete destruction of our entire state.

Businesses? Businesses are only businesses if they open for business. This is a controlled demolition of the middle class and precisely timed and played like a fiddle. MSMcomplicit

And clearly the business council is happy to see more people die from the virus because the daily case numbers are still too high. And the response from the federal govt was appalling

Businesses will never re open due to the Dandemic. What support? Is it just for his union buddies? He is a disgrace and should resign. I DON'T STAND WITH DAN.

Sky, just shut your lying gob

Sure. No other states will open their borders until the numbers are very low. This type of article is misguided.

Complete lockdown is a stupidity. How long can it continue? it's of no use unless you do lockdown for next 6 months which is not feasible at all. Solution is gradual opening up with checks in place to avoid spread.

Dan's Plan DictatorDan danandrews

Well then the PM should try and do something about this lunacy. Surely this is not constitutional! What happened to flattening the curve to allow the health system to cope, it's coping, it's a bloody virus it can't be eradicated. Manage it sensibly without killing the State!

A 'road to nowhere' is listening to the bullshit that SkyNews churns out on a daily basis trying to protect their Liberal mates , isn't it?

please share if you can and help us get home 💚 thank you xx

Would you rather dead bodies ?

And this is why more people support BoycottMurdoch

Can Alan get this out?

I am not sure who will win the role in the next exorcist film - PETA Credlin or Jeanine Pirot.

I don't understand why Morrison doesn't instruct Berejiklan to open the border so at least Victorian's could travel to NSW for a holiday auspol nswpol

Is that the Aussie spirit? Shitting on your fellow Aussies day after day? Just disgusting.

FatherBob and ScottMorrisonMP Nurses, Doctors, HCW’s & Aged Care Residents(are our parents, grand parents, sisters and brothers, expendable commodities?) too expensive to care for LNP?Ethics, morality & faith?No economy when our loved ones are dying and disabled?FatherBob

Calm down Rupert

Profit over people, greed over need.

Its a sham. How can they have any periods of no positive cases when they are using faulty BGI test kits made in China. These kits are known for false positives

Is this designed to fail ...

described by whom?

FatherBob Your boring tactics are not working. You get that, right?

What utter tripe.

Is it true deaths still continue at the same rate minus the fact people are not dying “with” covid anymore and death rate stats nevertheless remain the same? Not died ‘from’ Coronavirus but died ‘with’ coronavirus. Both stats got recorded as Covid deaths.

Only by those from the Sky Late Night Loony Shift. Credlin knows all about the Road to Nowhere Abbott 😂

For goodness sake we have done the hard yards already , we have a safe plan now almost at the end

It is crushing. It is catastrophic for the state and for the nation. Something has to be done. Is there a case for the High Court?

They have no idea , I don’t think there is one intelligent person in the Andrews Government u can’t make this shit up amateur hour

You voted him in Victoria NOW you voted him OUT 👍

Businesses only caring about the people bringing in the money, not about the community in which they belong. What about: Jobkeeper State grants $10k, $5k Refund of payroll tax Gov guarantor for biz loans Bank payment assistance Super withdrawal option Commercial rent relief

Probably being used by ScottMorrisonMP and his bus. auspol

Covid is a ruse and is being used by ccp puppet politicians to have lockdowns which by design is for creeping communism and to take away the human rights and freedoms of Victorian’s and to destroy businesses so big business and corporations and China can swoop like vultures and

You had the chance to all get out there yesterday and the same again today and tomorrow and the next etc etc.. Don’t any of you think this is just all a bit weird or are you happy while shit goes further south in your lives.. I know I know there’s experts out there giving you

Victorians may wanna know about this 👇👇

Highway to hell

so do something to help us Victorians instead of just labelling it crushing. intervene!!!

Victoria brought Australia to its knees in the last recession too. This is getting to be a bad habit

dates are important ... your telling me we didn’t know about covid until the start of 2020 ?

ScottMorrisonMP please stop funding to Victoria. It's your only lever to pull. Victorians by and large (ignore the keyboard snowflakes on social media they aren't represented in real life) are over this. Mental health and loss of hope is the norm. He is chasing elimination..

Like I said Businesses will sack and move interstate or overseas, He'll think he can do some sort of NY style recovery with flashy lights and parks in the city but really at the end of the day it will fail. Its a shame. Melbourne the once great city will be reduced to rubble.

I call BS✋ ScottMorrisonMP is complicit. This is all well preplanned.

Dan's roadmap...

Oh goodness.

But we don’t need roads where ScottyTheSaviour is taking us ... 🤦🏻‍♂️

No lockdowns, no curfews, no masks, no Police State fining ~20,000 for these Covid breaches...Sweden stats. Why would you do this to the people of Victoria?

Nothing has changed, he said he'd give us a roadmap and basically his 'roadmap' is 'I'll let you out when I want to.' ResignDanielAndrews

I'm willing to bet that if Victoria had a Liberal government they'd be in a far worse position now, many more infected and many more dead.

PM compares National Cabinet meeting to 'getting kids in the car' | Sky News AustraliaElection concerns are playing a key role in shaping the National Cabinet’s political debate on the controversial topic of borders according to Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell.\n\n“The view within National Cabinet and at senior levels of the federal government is that although Queensland and Western Australia are now very firm on their hard borders … both state governments are likely to change their minds after their elections in October and March respectively,” he said.\n\n“One thing seems certain; if the Queensland Chief Health Officer continues to insist on no community transmission from a city over 28 days it will be very hard to see Queensland every opening up again to Sydney and Melbourne”.\n\nMr Clennell also pointed out Prime Minister Scott Morrison was aware he could lose the next federal election likely to be held in late 2021 if he pushed the border debate too far.\n\nThe Prime Minister has the option of taking interstate border closures to the High Court, forcing border legislation through parliament, or threatening to withdraw JobKeeper support if Premier’s refuse to open the borders, he said. \n\nCommenting on the situation Mr Morrison said Premiers 'need to ensure they are not putting needless handbrakes on our economic recovery,” however his frustration was evident when he compared National Cabinet to “having to get kids in a car” after failing to get a national hotspot definition at Friday’s meeting.\n\n“The PM soon rescued himself from this by pointing out to the reporter they were all adults in the room,” Mr Clennell said.\n\nImage: Getty \n\n aclennell On 31 October, the Palasczukuk Govt will suffer a resounding defeat.

Victorian doctors argue the lockdown is 'causing more harm than good' | Sky News AustraliaVictorian surgeon Dr Geoffrey Wells says a growing number of doctors in the state believe the lock-down is “causing more harm than good”. \n\nMr Wells is one of over 500 doctors in Victoria who have signed a letter to Premier Daniel Andrews concerning the controversial State of Emergency bill which he recently pushed through parliament with crossbench support.\n\nHe said the doctors were yet to receive a reply from the Andrews government. \n\n“What we’re seeing is that the number of referrals from general practitioners to specialists has markedly decreased, it’s probably down about 70 per cent”. \n\nMr Wells also highlighted a study recently published in the Lanced which concluded there could be an increased death rate of about 4,000 people in the United Kingdom because of the delay in specialist medical support.\n\nBecause patients are coming to see specialists at a later date, the disease is more likely to have progressed making it in turn more difficult to treat. \n\nMr Wells said he supported a “two-pronged approach” which protected the elderly while acknowledging those in the general community were at far less risk of suffering a fatal outcome from contracting the virus. \n\n“If you’re under 65 years of age, then the chance of dying from the virus is markedly decreased, it’s about one in 150,000”. \n\nImage: Getty\n FatherBob And that doctor too. PacificPonies A dozen doctors qualifies you to hold a egular book club. None of you are virologists or epidemiologists Most Victorians know this already.
