Contact tracing and relief Specialist Drs to replace FIFO Sydney Drs coming to the Regions.

Other states to send more body bags to Gladys and Scott Morrison for their fvckups.

Wow , they want that all states will help Gold Standard Sydney. Did they do that last year in Victoria during our darkest moment in 2020?

I don't know how Gladys sleeps at night tbh. Every other state got it right with early lockdowns for Delta. Literally every other state in every single outbreak. She took the piss. Pure ego. I'm sorry to those in Sydney. I hope your memory is long and vote the nugget out in 2023.

Maybe if Gladys did her job and locked the state down properly instead of the mockdown she has. That would be a start.

OMFG! *tears hair out* We ‘advised’ NSW Govt to lockdown early, but noooo. GladysBerejiklian dithered around for 3 weeks and wanted to keep businesses open—well, sorry for you NSW. But, GladysClaytonsLockdown has screwed you over for business.

Gladys' - put Sydney into a REAL not Clayton's lockdown.

Well it won’t be by sending their political class to replace ours

What’s wrong with “gold standard” and “best in the world “ contact tracing now? Next time don’t be cocky and loud-mouth

Compare the pair. Vic vs NSW. 🙄

Recommendation 1: Go to your optomotrist and read the writing on the wall.

Give them whatever they need. We need to be in this together. Rise above political agendas and forget the past.

Ask ScottMorrisonMP & GladysB to call elections!

Yet Victoria was abandoned and was blamed for the Victorian virus!!!!!

Action item 1. Removing Queen Gladbags.

Here is a tip. Listen to the advice of other states.

Build a wall
