You'd be better served directing your ire at them than any of the politicians
Your first part was right.

The suggestions that any politician are on a "powertrip" because they are enforcing the advice of I don't know, professionals who are in place to offer said advice... seems just a little rediculous.
I can and do understand the frustrations of you guys who are the collatoral damage between the government and the anti vaxers/anti science brigade.
Let’s go BIG !

You won't get a legitimate answer to that, because there isn't one. Its just what the social media propaganda machine has been filling these heads with.
I've encountered these same arguments by others on construction sites. Having some apprentice plumber who dropped out of school at 15 trying to teach me science (or his backward version of it) and inform me about how vaccines work (as i mentioned elsewhere, my wife specialises in it) was a particularly interesting day.
They all peddle the same uninformed BS that they learned off facebook and Joe Rogan etc.

These are not rule breakers rather the opposite. You do understand not everyone that challenges the running of the pandemic is a D-head, protesting in the 1000s or doing lines of coke at illegal parties. The shear majority may not agree but follow the rules. I know that doesn't suit your narrative but its a fact. The same way as this virus has a 95% survival rate. Again doesn't suit your spin but its a fact.
If you want to blame every F up this 'i cant recall' leader makes on the minority of idiots who break the law and do self minded acts, you really are showing your bias and your ignorance.
The man you blindly seem to support no matter what is the very same man with the blood of 700 plus lives lost last year due to his stubbornness on quarantine or maybe again it was the 1% of the population who broke the rules.
And maybe Dan simply did not recall any of his decisions when questioned. :o :-X
The Interim Report of the Royal Commission into Aged Care was tabled in Parliament on 31 October 2019.
Part 1 begins under the heading "A Shocking tale of Neglect."
Between that date and mid-August last year, when a close relative died in a federally funded nursing home in suburban Melbourne, nothing was done by the Federal Government to act on the changes recommended by the Royal Commission.
You make the claim that Dan has the blood of 700 lives on his hands, but the facts show that 800 of the approx. 850 covid deaths occurred in federally funded nursing homes.
Why is your anger not directed towards possibly the most incompetent minister since federation,
Senator Richard Colbeck? He is the invisible man since his appearance before a Senate committee where he embarrassed himself with his lack of knowledge of his portfolio.

....because there hasn't been any social media propaganda put out by Dan and the state government, only by the other side to cover their tracks in areas like this.
You expect logic from the illogical.
Its ironic that the anti-dan, anti-vax, anti-government types label everyone following the science as 'sheep' when they are the ones who are being lead to the slaughter by misinformation and doing it with a smile on their face that only ignorance can provide.

I used to read the Herald Sun and over time noticed it became most like a celebrity and footy rag and the writing got worse and worse. It really got super dumbed down.
I used to hate The Age, it was a bit too businessy for me but then I found myself finding information from there rather than the HS.
Then the changes that started seeping in when Costello took over became obvious and during last years reporting, I found it to be uninformative and anti Victorian - not Anti Dan - anti Victorian. Because head office changed to Sydney and most journos are Syd based.
I think we all just want facts. That is all I want. I don’t want bias, I am not a woke leftie at all, I am most certainly not a right winger and mostly despise the right. I sit on the left not for my benefit but for the benefit of others - personally our family circumstances mean we sit in the middle and probably it wouldn’t make a difference for us who is in. But I would prefer the poor or immigrants etc be given help rather than the rich be given even more.

Again where’s the vitriol towards scomo - it’s not a race, then gives me vax to gladbag when she fks up and crows about how good nsw vax is - when taking from other states and regional nsw.
What about hunt lying about not being able to get pFizer earlier?
What about Colbeck doing nothing and having people die under his watch?
Honestly look at what you’re hearing and seeing and note that it is a 70% Murdoch media in this country, you don’t think those libs deserve scrunitu? And tell me how much of it you see, honestly? Ask why? Why was gladbag able to not get harangued at her pressers - why did she walk thru the Ruby princess disaster - yes a royal commission said she and nsw health fkd up - tell me why they don’t face headlines like Dan does?
