Victoria has had way more deaths than other States. More deaths/infections means tougher measures to arrest exponential spread.
Love the way some are reinventing the wheel and expecting a standing ovation. The Herald Sun and SkyNews made it their mission to take down Daniel Andrews. Remember the Dictator Dan sledges? And of course the Liberal leader tried to take the ball and run with it. Lockdowns are imprisoning the innocent! Think of the kids and mental health! Masks are an infringement of civil liberties! The measures imposed are excessive and we can manage with much less interference from Govt! The cure can’t be worse than the disease!
They were all flummoxed by how little their joint campaign achieved. They were astonished by how popular “Dictator Dan” remained. The Herald Sun dialled back the rhetoric.
The reason the attack failed was that the overwhelming majority realise Covid is a lethal pandemic and it requires a vigorous response. That hasn’t changed.
We’re told other States have a more relaxed or sensible attitude towards controlling Covid. And yet our northern neighbours reacted with alarm when a handful of Victorians crossed their borders. And we know West Australia has been to the High Court to retain its border lockdown.
I’m thinking politicians are the last people on Earth who will impose more repressive restrictions on the public than are necessary. I’d imagine Labor MPs are sick and tired of being approached by hotel lobbyists and gym owners. I’m sure the Government has heard from mental health professionals and business people. The idea that some keyboard warriors have seen something that has been missed in setting policy is laughable. And I’d imagine they actually have more data to guide decision-making than the bald assertions made in this thread.
