His comments come after Victorian Premier Daniel Andrew’s announcement on Sunday of a roadmap to recovery which extended Melbourne’s stage four lockdown for another 2 weeks. The announcement delivered a hard blow to restaurants as they learnt they won’t be able to open their doors until at least the 23rd of November, and only then if there were zero cases in the state.
“I think that we’re in a perilous state,” Mr Lucas told Sky News host Peta Credlin. “We had hoped, and we had asked for a plan, a plan to get out of this mess. “What we got yesterday was quite the opposite. We got a plan that, quite frankly, is a death knell to our industry. “I’m really fearful for our industry. “I think potentially up to 30-40 per cent of restaurants and cafes across Victoria won’t survive this lockdown.
Wage theft Chris?
Must be the trough where the Sky swine swill their fill, served by the staff that are being rorted.
Self-interested horse-shit from a person with no relevant qualifications...going for the $$, so he wants the govt to take a greater risk..but that’s a risk to everyone else’s health, not just his own...he doesn’t get to put that on us...tell him to go visit some hospital wards
Restaurants that had a Covid outbreak don't survive though. If he wasn't so short sighted, his business would be more likely to survive.

Daniel Andrews 'obsessing over all the wrong things' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews 'is just wrong for this task' as he engages in micromanaging while obsessing over all the wrong things in his bid to stem the spread of the virus. \n\nMr Andrews announced on Sunday tentative dates for the easing of restrictions, should new case numbers remain low.\n\nThe Melbourne metropolitan area will continue with its stage four lockdowns until at least September 28.\n\nWhile the curfew facing parts of the state will be slightly eased to 9:00pm and people will be allowed to exercise for two hours per day.\n\nMr Kenny said the roadmap 'leaves a curfew in place until the end of October; by that time Victorians will have been forced to stay home, overnight, for three months”. \n\n“This is reckless, this is madness, it hurts people, and it all happens while the deaths continue to occur, not in the broader community, but almost exclusively in aged care facilities, where the precautions and focus should have been more intense, much earlier.\n\n“Victoria needs someone who can look at the big picture, make the big calls about balancing the costs and benefits, risks and rewards of a virus, a health system, a society and an economy.”\n\n'Not someone fussing over skate park rules'. \n\nImage: Getty DanielAndrewsMP Chris Kenny says lots of things, few of them are true. DanielAndrewsMP If Dan was so concerned about the virus and “keeping everyone safe”, he’d allow HCQ to be used so that we could move on. Clearly, it’s not about the virus at all. DanielAndrewsMP If the whole world and not just Victorians had to follow this plan, every country except Taiwan and a handful of Pacific Islands would be at least at stage 3 restrictions, so no retail, no restaurants, no school, businesses, a curfew, stay within 5 km and 4 reasons to leave home.
