Wow so much for GladysB ensuring she would tell everyone when she knew. Leaking the night before. Typical LNP move.

She is only complying with directives from the Boss Pentecostal. He claims to talk to God; makes you wonder what his real agenda actually is.

Only some are privileged.

I am pretty sure this is now an impeachment on our freedom. Read the front of your passports, what you are doing is actually illegal. It is not law, it is a guide, which if you are vaccinated, should NOT apply to you. Honestly, time to stop lockdowns, it doesn't work GladysB

Huh, so another 4 weeks the kids miss of school. Another 4 weeks they are locked in doors doing numbers on their mental health. Another gold standard for GladysB , and I thought you were doing a good job until you locked us all down for only 3 suburbs that it is in.

The liberal party conference had aged extremely quickly.

Great about the singles bubble, does that mean I can have my daughter and granddaughter visit me then? I live alone and am single.

The smugness - The condescending attitude as Gladys plays to these RWNJ clowns. Not so clever now are...

Gold standard , yeah nah

GB has put NSW in a very dangerous place, its been incompetence in the highest order, Vic & SA have undeniably proved this today, COVID won't be NSWs disaster, Gladys will be, People's livelihoods are ruined thru inept Governing by Gladys & Cohorts, its criminal negligence Gladys

Oh, sweetheart. It’s not exclusive. It’s everywhere. They told you that you were special, and you believed them. They were grooming you for.... what did they ask you to do?

Just admit that the virus is now endemic in Sydney . Face the reality and act appropriately. Stop living in a fools paradise.

Hmm, I wonder why construction only. Was there a deal made with the unions?

Also exclusive.....The perils of Govt who fall for the Newscorpse narrative......
