CV and mad panic behaviour

[Baggers]

He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

People were calling for his head because he went over and above what was expected at the time. Too harsh. Should've opened everything up sooner,  etc.

Now people are saying he is not harsh enough.

He's caught between a rock and a hard place and there is no right answer.

Stop the spread by locking down everyone and kill the economy.
Have some trust in your people to do the right thing, and keep the economy alive.....and have your people ruin it for you.

I think he is trying to please everyone, and in the process is pleasing no one.

Poor bugger can't win.

Actually, I totally agree. No matter what you do, many will find you wrong. I thought he did extremely well the first time so I was not in the critical corner which is why I was confused with him, seemingly, soft pedalling this time.

Overall, however, I really do think all state and federal leaders have done well and hopefully the bulge in Victorian numbers this time will soon be under control.
