Seems like karma.has.booted that dropkick premier right in the arse
Why is he a dropkick? For trying to protect the people of his State?
Shoots his mouth off advising NSW to take WA lead... Pot shots at any opportunity... He's much like that peanut up north... Only care about themselves while crapping on about "protecting their state"
Pffft
He's done a pretty good job in regards to the virus so far. Can't deny him that.
He does have the benefit of Perth being one of the most isolated cities in the world. How he deals with this outbreak will be telling.
He only knows one way, lock everything down.
It's not a bad theory when you have no border towns. Has it effected the other states negatively?
Except for those with family in Perth. Businesses, really only the Airline and tourist industry I suspect.
Except now it will effect almost all business in Perth.
I think tourism here is booming. It's near impossible to book anything . I work for myself and can't now for a week but hopefully short term pain.
I hope it’s only short term pain.
I do think the lockdown is a bit premature though, the person is in isolation. To me it shows a lack of faith in the tracing capabilities, to get everyone in close contact isolated and tested.
I guess the worry is it’s the more virulent strain and the possibility of it already in the community. What I don’t get is why the whole city and south West WA, and not just individual LGAs.
It’s like my LGA in Sydney, like most, hasn’t had a case since May 2020 but because a few LGAs in ‘Sydney’ has we have been locked out. I just think it could be more granular allowing most of the region to continue.
A surgical knife rather than a sledgehammer.
Yeah seems like overkill but state election in March has always played apart I reckon. His actions have been overwhelmingly supported so far. I could'nt even name the opposition leader off the top of my head
