Which then made me think are these strict lockdown laws **seriously flawed?** It seems if they are then it would make those tough rules that are applied as being very **debatable** and mostly pointless.
How would checking in and wearing a mask in a **crowded** woolworths be **any different** than checking in and wearing a mask in those places that are banned to operate?
People need to continue to eat food and wipe their butts? Just a crazy idea?
The people are stopped from bringing the virus home from a cafe or a club but they are still very easily able to bring it home from a crowded woolworths, this is the flaw.
Sure but people still need to buy food and soap. Its all about minimising risk.
perhaps make all woollies click and collect or delivery by army etc and close bunnings and the like
The Bunnings one is interesting, I can see why it is important for it to be open.

If I have a tap go or something like that, I need to be able to purchase another.
I'll just add that I haven't been to Bunnings during this lockdown lol.

It will be interesting to see if that has an effect. NSW Police going through the extra enforcement powers now...
Yeah, let's shut the gate now that the thousands of horses in the paddock have run to the far corners of the state, from Byron Bay to Broken Hill.
The Dubbo situation is akin to Sydney having well over five thousand cases on the third day of it's outbreak.
A head needs to roll and not that of Dr Chant who's advice was not taken, but little doubt the spin doctors are busy preparing.
You do not have to be real smart to see that Dr Chant has been blindsided by the politicians as THEY are the ones making the decisions not health advise … this is why Hazard does not want her to answer questions from the media .
The only thing that is going to save this state now is a vaccination !
I still remember when you were giving it to the Victorian Premier and praising Gladys. Those were the days.
Dan deserved the kick now it’s Glady’s turn big time!
So it’s not a left or right thing, just incompetence. Glad you finally saw the light.
Ask the joke of a PM and Perottet about the failure to lock down the Eastern Suburbs.

I'm still at work and my wife is working from home, childcare is outside the LGA and beyond the 5km radius, can we take him to daycare seeing as she is still working? or is working from home not classified as "working" so can't take him to daycare. we are both essential workers but she has opted to work from home as she is pregnant

100%. I can wire things up and change pretty much any fixture in a house without the need to call another trade. I'm not paying an electrician to replace something faulty when I have a trade qualification that covers the ability to do that myself.
