Australia whoever would’ve thought Australians would turn into a bunch of pussies . From what I hear Australians have curfews are not allowed out of their houses they’re not free to room their country how about in Australia is this true , Please don’t tell me your country fell for the hoax of the Chinese virus also

 

A hoax???...aha.

I suppose it's a hoax that 660,000 Americans have died and continue to die at an alarming rate.

Two states, Victoria and New South Wales are in lockdown as the Delta Variation runs amok in both states (though more so in NSW)...while the other 4 states and the Northern Territory have locked out the residents of Victoria and NSW.

The word is that once NSW and Victoria get to 70% and 80% fully vaccinated then they'll start to open up again.

As what it seems with some of the US's states (Florida being one of them) their leaders don't seem to give a shit about the health of their citizens.

Case in point...
Florida, pop. 21,477,763...Virus deaths, 46,761.

Australia, pop. 25,849,681...Virus deaths, 1052.

 

Hoax

 

660,000 deaths is a hoax???.

Idiot.


I understand where YOU are coming from truthless, you're of the mob that lives by.....
"I'm alright Jack, fuck the rest of you".

 

Easy now...Australia is the only Country that knows how stupid Crime Boss Biden and the Ho (half cracker 3.0) Administration actually is...and publicly state it.

 

Let me guess....

You're refering to crap you've read from Sky News who are another of Rupert Murdoch's bullshit spreaders.

 

There's no guessing about it.

 

@69magpie You are the only person I know that doesn’t know what is going on in their own country ,you , Remind me of an American Democrat

 

Five more lowlights from Australia's Covid fight

It was less than a fortnight ago that Steerpike wrote of Australia’s various missteps in its long fight with Covid. Since then, the (not so) Lucky Country has introduced a smorgasbord of extra restrictions to add to its various rules and regulations already in place, with Prime Minister Scott Morrison himself admitting that ‘this is not a sustainable way to live in this country.’ Below Mr S presents his list of some of the more egregious of these…

Tracking

Few Covid innovations have generated as many headlines as that of South Australia’s home-based quarantine. The state has developed and is now testing an app to enforce its quarantine rules which – in the words of the Atlantic – is as ‘Orwellian as any in the free world’. Those travellers returning and quarantining at home have to download an app that combines facial recognition and geolocation.

The state will then text them at random intervals, with the quarantining Aussie being given just 15 minutes to take a picture of their face in the location where they are supposed to be. Should they fail, the local police department will be sent to follow up in person. State Premier Steven Marshall appeared untroubled by this overreach, breezily claiming: ‘I think every South Australian should feel pretty proud that we are the national pilot for the home-based quarantine app.’

Thousand dollar fines

Much like certain politicians here in the UK, some Aussie lawmakers have positively revelled in the chance to implement four figure fines. In New South Wales, groups of more than two people were not allowed to meet outside, prompting stories such as the two young pram-punishing mothers who were last month slapped with $1,000 fines for daring to stop and talk to one another in Bronte park in Sydney’s lockdown. A day later fine rates were hiked to $5,000 or £2,683.



Mask madness

Steerpike has already pointed out the case of Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews, who went viral online after suggesting you could not remove a mask to drink outside. Victoria was not alone in its misguided approach to transmission; Queenland’s health minister Yvette D’Ath ordered citizens in the Greater Brisbane area to wear a mask whenever they left their home including when walking, cycling or even driving alone in a car. At the beginning of August, a video of an elderly man being arrested for not wearing a mask in Brisbane’s Botanic Gardens went viral after he appeared to have a seizure while being led away by police.

If anyone in the Greater Brisbane area is leaving their home they must wear a mask throughout the entire period they are out until they get home.

This includes while driving.

Still, it could be worse. In South Australia the chief health officer Professor Nicola Spurrier warned attendees of an Aussie rules football game: ‘If you are at Adelaide Oval and the ball comes towards you, my advice to you is to duck and do not touch that ball.’

Curfews

A day after Steerpike’s article, New South Wales introduced a curfew for two million residents of Sydney until the end of September. Australians here had already been under stay-at-home orders since June but now those unlucky enough to live in the city’s worst-hit suburbs have to endure an eight hour curfew between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. The state Premier Gladys Berejiklian said it is primarily a way of ‘reducing the movement of young people’ and is just the latest in a long of curbs on travel. Citizens are already banned from leaving the country without permission, in violation of the UN Declaration of Human Rights

Parliament suspended

While New South Wales deployed the military to enforce lockdowns, Victoria went even further with its curfew and suspension of Parliament at various points of the pandemic. Eschewing technical solutions, like Westminster’s own virtual sittings, the aforementioned Premier Daniel Andrews declared ‘it is not about human rights. It is about human life.’

This is despite both federal and state parliaments sitting continually during both world wars and the pandemic of 1918-19. As one dissenting lawmaker noted: ‘This is a very powerful government using every armoured force that they can to actually control the message, control the state, control the community.’

 

Then here's your chance to tell me and the rest of us to what is happening in Oz...

The soapbox is yours truthless.....astound us with your knowledge.

 

Yes some of our lockdown rules are draconian....however I for one will put up with these rules if it saves tens of thousands of my fellow Aussies from dying or having long term Covid-19 symptoms..

And quoting "Steerpike" - a UK GOSSIP columnist (his words, not mine) doesn't really impress me.
Take advice from someone who lives in a country of 68 million and has a covid death toll (so far) of 133,500.....abso-fucking-lutely, NOT.

And before you start thinking it must be a leftist country......well no it's not.

The 4 states quoted in Natureboy's post 2 are run by lefties and 2 by righties.

And our fearless leader
Scott Morrison - Prime Minister of Australia (rightwing)

 

Cmon guys.
Behave.
Shooter got to visit Australia. In his limited time there he determined that Aussies are not so very different than us Yanks.

Well, they do drive on the wrong side of the road.
Oh, and they talk funny. (Stuffed means ate too much, not had sex, in Shooters experience.)

And they're having better luck with covid than we are, but Shooter thinks not because the Aussies are taking it more seriously.

He thinks Aussie beer has something to do with it. He just can't prove it yet.

But, he heard the gummint in Australia is rationing liqour. That will not turn out well.

 

Meanwhile, Australian journalists added to these criticisms of Biden.

“This is a bloke who’s heavily controlled. Remember he was able to effectively campaign, or not campaign, for the presidency from his basement,” stated Paul Murray, host of Sky News Australia. “He was able to have a collection of people around him in the White House, who literally tell him who he can and can’t talk to when it comes to a free media.”

British and Australian media both agree Biden’s policies have not been helpful in building better relations going forward and argued they made the world a more dangerous place.

 

Paul Murray is a journalist?????...

Where did you dig that gem up from Ace's.....Murray is an egotistical talkback radio hack and that's his only claim to fame.

Sky News (aka..Rupert Murdoch's puppets).

 

Never said he was a journalist...nor do I give a fuck about his resume....mother fucker speaks the truth as it is.

 

[QUOTE.. ace's n 8's]Meanwhile, Australian journalists added to these criticisms of Biden.[/QUOTE]

The opinions of a far right hack ISN'T the truth.

 

What about the opinions of a far left hack???

 

Facts are facts birdbrain you should know them if you want to be apart of my world

 

Give me some provable facts truthless.......but please none of the "alternative facts" that kellyanne conway introduced to the vocabulary.
