NSW not pushing for federal quarantine site | Sky News AustraliaPrime Minister Scott Morrison says military bases are off the table when it comes to federal quarantine sites and there are no requests for a purpose-built facility in New South Wales.\n\n“There are no requests for additional quarantine facilities here in NSW,” he said.\n\n“NSW has been doing the heavy lifting without complaint”.\n\nNSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the state has not put in a request for an additional facility because it is already operating at capacity with over 5,000 residents currently in the hotel quarantine system. \n\n“We’re doing our bit, but … down the track quarantine will, could look different once the majority of our population’s vaccinated and our international borders are open,” she said.\n\n“That’s a different question”. \n ScottMorrisonMP What a tag team. ScottMorrisonMP doesn't want to build fit for purpose quarantine and GladysB loves playing Russian Roulette with public health. She would want to build quarantine if it was in McGuire's property. ScottMorrisonMP Because Gladys the idiot does whatever he says ScottMorrisonMP Get the Tamil family out of the Christmas Island facility and back to Bilo' then use the facility for quarantine. If was good enough for those returning from China last year, it is good enough for ANY returning Aussie. At least we would get some use out of the $$$ spent on it.

‘This is not controversial’: Matt Kean pushes to phase out plastics in NSW | Sky News AustraliaNSW Energy Minister Matt Kean says the state government’s push to phase out plastics is “not controversial” but rather “practical environmentalism”.\n\nThe legislation would see plastic plates, cutlery, and even plastic sticks on cotton ear buds outlawed.\n\nDiscussing why this issue is something which needs to be legislated, Mr Kean told Sky News host Chris Kenny every other state and territory has legislated for it as well as the commonwealth.\n\n“And business is moving in that direction, so in fact it’s actually costing businesses that operate in New South Wales and across the commonwealth money, because they’ve got to have a different regime in every different state and territory,” he said.\n\n“All we’re doing is looking to align with what’s happening at the commonwealth level and what industry are already doing.”\n\nAccording to Mr Kean, the legislation is “practical environmentalism” which will lead to better outcomes for the environment and better health outcomes for the community.\n\n“It’ll be good for our planet, it’ll be good for human health, it’s a win-win.”\n
