Australians are continuing to ignore social distancing rules, with some posting pictures of parties and others calling them out online.

Pictures and video have emerged of several gatherings which breach the rules, despite police across the country enforcing on-the-spot fines to anyone caught in the act.

“You won’t be able to go to the pub, because the pub is shut. That doesn’t mean you can have all your mates around to home and get on the beers. That’s not appropriate,” the Premier is heard saying.Partygoers openly defy the social distancing ban.Meanwhile, guests at another house party hid in closets and cars until the police left.

NSW Police were called “but left abruptly”, according to one witness, Andrew Hawkins, who lives nearby and is in self-isolation after returning from London 10 days ago. There's a house party happening next door. In this environment. Music. Plenty of people in close quarters. Screaming. Perhaps it's the self-isolation talking, but I'm all for burning the lot of them at the stake.Partygoers “spun some yarn and hid in closets and in neighbouring units until the police left,” Mr Hawkins told news.com.au.

Unfortunately there is an element of human out there who believes that these rules don’t apply to them. What’s really alarming is the vast number of these inconsiderate and obnoxious that are out there.

Should have let Lex run it

Very sad to persons who ignore the rules, each will be liable to get fined between $1k and $5k each per time. Must respect the laws. If anyone have no money to pay fines, either deduct from their benefits or their cars or items will be seized. Good luck to partyers and ignorers.

Fuckin strip off their benefits from the government and then we'll see how they will listen to government's requirements!! Fuckin dickheads!!

Just throw them in gaol. They like tight spaces. Win win

'a Sydney massage parlour owner was among the first to cop a $5000 fine after the business was caught operating in a NSW police patrol.' Heard this on the news and very disappointed....the reporter didn't sign off with 'well that's one massage that didn't have a happy ending'

May they all get sick and be refused medical attention!!!!!!

Why hide their face? They posted it on social media.

Australians wanna B FREE! Not under unfounded Govt tyranny! 3,635 confirmed cases, 14 deaths...population 25M! 🦠🇦🇺

aussies are so self-centred and dumb, it’s concerning

It’s on site if I see this tik tok on my for you page

Shameful and selfish...

Maybe a 12 month ban on all welfare payments for these people would work? Why should we support those who aren’t trying to help stop the spread? makethempay

It is clear that governments may shortly loose control as idiots challenge policing powers. If there is not going to be a total lockdown then police need to really start to focus on maintaining power. The advantage with China is that they kept control.

Until it starts to hit the people of Oz in full force. It will be disaster of note. Then it will be a case of wish we did'nt

Lock the fucken country down ffs

Show them this... twats!

Wtf is wrong with these selfish idiots?

Until people start getting locked up there will be those who won't take it seriously.

He did not say it is full lockdown. So technically people can go to see each others. But of course hope that everyone is taking the right precautions. corona+Drama=corama corama_aust

Is it really that hard to Zoom a party? Like stay home ffs.

Dickheads, the lot of them

Bloody selfish idiots

Simply selfish. ‘nough said! 😡

a current affair needs to name shame these people

People get laid off work, and many have died yet some feel it is a time to party!!! How inconsiderate can some people be?

Time for police to grow a pair and dish out the fines or these clowns will continue to laugh in your faces. Get tough

The Army is coming!!

That’s shocking

It is the minority Grow up 🤦🏼‍♀️

So did qld politicians. What I’m learning, is that most people are selfish pricks.

How come these people aren’t arrested. After all we know who they are

Why are you blurring their faces? Shame them into doing the right thing

Dickheads

Why wouldn’t they party? They just had their dole payments fkn doubled

And that’s why we can’t have nice things, ppl!

Pass on the address to the cops......that’s a gatecrash I’d like to see......🤣

Grow up people. What world are you living in? You can’t educate ignorant bogans. They’ll be the super spreaders😡😡

We have lost a jobs because of this kind of idiots. Australian way, isn’t it

Oh dear... stupidity is infinite 😡

Don’t we need to see faces so if you know them you can keep the hell away from them.

PM is left with no option but to lockdown. People are selfish, disrespectful, disobedient and obviously lacking substance between the ears. Absolute disgrace. Go for it Scott .. engage the ADF and teach people what discipline is required ScottMorrisonMP

Wtf is wrong with people

It’s time for good citizens to start calling the authorities when these parties start up. No one should be prepared to put themselves in harms way because of these imbeciles partying...I know I’ll be making the call.

This is so wrong...they didn't invite me 😁

Probs same dickheads that have been hoarding poo paper

Stops being funny If just one of them get badly ill cos they either have or suddenly get told they have an undiagnosed medical condition - like high blood pressure .... Laugh out loud then Covid_19

10 seconds on tik tok tells you that. Send the army in that’ll wipe the smile off their smug entitled face

I say shoot on site, military need target practice.

Pleas are as good as thoughts and prayers. $20k fine on the spot or don't even bother.

'Parties of up to 10 people are allowed' as advised by the Prime Minister just a few days ago. 2 weeks ago we were told to go to the footy. shutdownaustralia

Let's hang em. Lynch the lot of them. Throw then to the lions at the zoo. What kind of people dont follow instructions from a Govt that has continually lied to us, led us to the wolves,

The sooner the government restricts non essential movements and introduces heavy, on the spot, penalties the better

They think they’re invincible, until they end up in ICU unable to breathe 🙄

The amount of people who want a police state is alarming

Why cover their faces up?

Social distancing Elections QLD. Well done politicians

Why not? There are no penalties! Making pleas or tough talk is of no consequence to these fools.

Are we 3 weeks behind Italy? AustralianFopdoodles

The reason the number of infections keeps increasing 🤦🤦‍♀️

Based

These people will be the first to complain the military is at the end of their street in a weeks time not letting anyone leave. And it’s entirely their own fault

There was a group of 20 something year olds in the servo last night, pushing each other around touching each other, making jokes about it. The gov needs to grow a pair & get serious so people get the messages loud and clear. Our gov is way too soft!

Simple, remove their names from the potential ventilator list.

Hurry up and lock it down and make going to work only an exception. People aren’t listening.!

Idiots!

Throw them all on Christmas Island

Attrition.
