Thread: Corona Virus

Well, this is how I see it.
A couple of the important Southern states appear to regard themselves as the ' Southern Federation Authority'.
Now, when the majority of this Authority make a statement re: borders, it could rightly be regarded as about '9/10ths of SFA' couldn't it!

National Cabinet decided that reopening state borders would be in the third stage of the plan and happen early in July, which is why every state and territory with closed borders is keeping them closed until early next month.

I saw a poll that 78% of Queenslanders support state border closures, so that's interesting if correct. Nationally, support was 88%.

I see the UK only closed its national borders this week, and is being criticised for not copying Australia's national border closures.
Also criticised for not going into lockdown earlier, and for not testing people in aged care homes.

So the latest surveys show Qlders are overwhelmingly supporting opening the borders.Why wouldn't they?

People are going backwards and forwards all the time,anyway,even Mick from Maleny was allowed to travel there and back

Hopefully they open sooner than later.

Its wrecking businesses,and costing the economy millions a day.

Edit,saw Micks post above after i wrote this.....

This is just the tip of the iceburg and VIC/NSW wants to reopen the borders

So which is it? For or against? - seems Bannana Benders are a bit confused but they do seem happy to come south and infect those south.

Keep in mind the possibility of 'Profit' from high numbers,, be the beneficiary a hospital system. Or Banker, or Politician.
Human stupidity is a wonderful thing, though I balk at the stellar performance of so many idiots making the same type of mistake... Over-estimation.

Or perhaps the integrity and competence of our people explains Australia's low death numbers...

Do you know we have banana straighteners too?

Seems many in the mexican markets don't like their banana with a bend in it?

Who knows what they possibly need a straight banana for.

That confuses us.

Residence in Queensland does not a banana bender make.
