It has a population of about 2,500, made up mostly of families with kids.
"We understand the reasons for the restrictions, we just don't understand why we're considered part of metropolitan Melbourne," Brad says. Out in the empty paddocks, the farmers like to joke, 'Gee, it's quiet in metropolitan Melbourne today'. A kind of laugh-to-keep-from-crying humour. It's where all the high schools are for kids in Bunyip. It's where the big supermarket chains are, where many do their weekly shop. It has the retail, the parks, the restaurants and arts centre.The problem? Warragul and Drouin sit just over the border in "regional Victoria".And as of this week, anyone from Bunyip caught crossing that divide without permission will cop a $4,957 fine.
And under current restrictions, Brad says the kids who live there wouldn't be able to play with their mates in the local cricket league because it's based out of Warragul."That's when it becomes the issue, when they are getting the rewards of their efforts," Emma says."If they look at the statistics, we're within our right to say we should be considered regional because we've done the right thing.

Unemployment rate falls as 111,000 jobs added in August, despite Melbourne lockdownAustralia's unemployment rate posts a surprise fall to 6.8 per cent, as 111,000 jobs were created last month despite a lockdown in the nation's second most populous state. No explanation as to if these are 'new jobs' or just people going off jobkeeper/seeker and back to their old jobs considering that before Covid-19 a good month for new jobs was 30-40,000 mostly part time and casual positions. Can't help feeling there is some dodgy accounting here Hmm, the figures do not tell the whole story. The ABS only counts people actively looking for work and in the current job situation there are 100s of thousands not bothering. I’m calling major BS. This cannot be true. Someone at abc really needs to pull this apart & do a full analysis/ breakdown. Fake news. I want names of companies, sources, salary figures. You realise recruiters create fake job profiles in job search yeah? 🤨🤨🤨

Household hoppers blamed for growing Casey clusterVictoria has recorded 45 new cases of coronavirus as authorities race to stem a cluster in Melbourne's south-east and motorists face traffic chaos at police checkpoints on Melbourne's 'ring of steel'. Give these idiots a big big fine!!! Hate to say but need to boycott such stupid people. 🤦🏻♂️ It is about time the names of people who deliberately break the lockdown are published & fines go to $20,000 + jail as such behaviours are now equivalent to criminal and could now drive the lockdown period even further so there now needs to be very extreme penalties.
