Northern Territory Chief Minister Michael Gunner has sensationally hit back at US Senator Ted Cruz for criticising a COVID-19 vaccine mandate, saying 'we don't need your lectures, mate' and 'you know nothing about us'.

"We don't need your lectures, mate," the chief minister continued, "you know nothing about us.""I love Texas but when it comes to COVID, I'm glad we are nothing like you."

As of Monday, 80 per cent of people in the NT have had their first vaccine dose and 69 per cent are fully vaccinated.Conversely, Senator Cruz has publicly opposed vaccine mandates in the US. Earlier this month, he criticised President Joe Biden for ordering the US Labor Department to impose one on businesses with more than 100 employees.

Vaccine mandate shouldn't be legal, putting freedom & human right down the drain! We want vaccines that are Not made in a country Billed Out of Bio Weapon Treaty!! 🤯 I think we should have the right to wait for a TOTALLY Canadian Made vaccine at MINIMUM!

GailCoastie Ted Cruz keeps getting voted back just shows IQ of voters there

tedcruz The US has this weird sense of freedom, ie its OK to infect people with COVID or allow people to carry guns but with little care for the 'general good' or an individuals responsibilities to care for the vulnerable & the wider society. Most of us are glad not to be y'all

TaraVenn that right tell him to shut up

TaraNipe Thinking michaelgunner is nicely telling tedcruz to getrooted. Why don't Americans COVIDIOTS just mind their own business and not try to f$&k up our part of the world, as they've successfully done in their own backyard?

This is the same Senator that on very day when Congress was ambushed by Trump supporters in January... he immediately made up a story about far lefties infiltrating the mob... the guy is a loony and is a sad representation of US politicians.

SenTedCruz taking a lesson on this one. Don’t stumble into a brawl with a seasoned Aussie politician. Another GOP laughathon. TedCruz Fails!!

Think about your own country! Australia rule is not your business!

Nice.

I would say it is a battle of wits but Ted is a nitwit so not really 🤣

It's rude. And you can't compare the two - different population and different culture. It's not as simple as one has less deaths. It is easier to have less deaths in a nanny state. Texas is not a nanny state. auspol

O A story from the BLM of Australia sbs closed closets fart sniffers

'Sensational' ? It's just Australian politicians doing what Australian politicians should be doing. Looking after its OWN citizens and calling out foreign interference.

and just like that this guy is my favourite person of the night

Mandating a vaccine ineffective in stopping transmission is enough to know it's tyrannical.

Gunner proves he knows absolutely nothing, or what he knows he is not telling. Autonomous zone, nukes, fracking, digital IDs?

Healthcare is a right here, not deadly weapons unlike Ted Cruz’s country. He ought to leave us alone.

rgesthuizen Do we have a vaccine mandate in WA? If not, why? We too have a vulnerable population, indigenous people north and south, disabled and elderly. Let’s not delay! I’d like to see my daughter home for Christmas.

Australia knows you have sold us out! We look forward to judgment day! May all Darwinan’s stomp on you when the truth is revealed!

One finger and the truth.

TedCruz

TrumpVirus MurdochVirus

One of these people is so popular he had flee his own home recently because his constituents found out where he lived.

So that you know that he does not Speak for all of the Australian People.

Good on him.

Lets all praise him for doing what a normal person should do Btw here is the guy you are praising

Well... you allowed them to establish military bases upon your territory and this effectively renders your land as US property. Expose the fact the US are harbouring nukes upon our land.

Confusion. The laws of one country cannot impinge upon another, yet in the Bible in the chapter Acts is such as the mocking of foreign governments and leaders, could oust a Prime Minister, Senator, or Chief Minister, at the ballot box. Go owe beers not mocks.

Ted Cruz. The best senator that money can buy.

Meanwhile, in Texas....

Texanistan has banned abortion. That's medieval!

He knows enough to know our politicians are out of control.

To all the lefties praising Michael Gunner, think again, this is his environmental record:

DidiFrench MAGAMoron Cruz’s reputation is mud (sh*t), known even in Australia. Those ozzies are so bomb!

I couldn’t love this more. Excellent work Minister Gunner.

What a shit comeback. Gunner is such a wuss!

kate6063714 Amongst other things 😅👏👏

SenTedCruz inappropriately using Australians, whom he knows nothing about, as a tool in his absurd political agenda! Cruz promotes the anti-vax/anti-mask theories to pander to the Trunts & Qunts because he wants their votes regardless of how many die!🤬🇦🇺😷

Crocodile Dundee made it clear what happens to Americans who piss in our pond!

Got news for you though fanniebay, VaccineMandates by stealth are still fascism and distinctly unconstitutional. VaccinePassport COVID_Australia theprojecttv latikambourke ACurrentAffair9 abcbrisbane 7NewsBrisbane abcdarwin 9NewsDarwin Diane_Dee ErinBrockovich

Ted Cruz fled Texas during a deadly snowstorm and had to be shamed into returning home. Fuck what the zodiac killer thinks.

Most leftists are reveling on Twitter and Facebook, thinking they are Saints and Madonnas who can save the world, but unaware that they can't even save themselves because the politicians they fervently support have turned into great dictators.

Gunner outgunned the gun-loving.

I mean your nation went for such draconian laws everyone else told you no

HNTurtledove P.S. Thanks, Harry. Would have missed this gem.

Israel defines two jabs not fully vaccinated! Fully vaccinated are still infectious and could be infected! No mandatory vaccination! This is like to prevent death from cancer, to order chemotherapy for all people in advance! Die of chemotherapy prior to cancer

Sensationally? Rationally is the word you’re looking for here.

HNTurtledove Now Cruz has earned contempt from FIVE continents. 👏🤣

Wait! I think Simple Ted thinks we're Austrians.

Thank you, Australia 💕

Boom! Mic drop for Gunner please

Watching Americans bleat on about what they think has been happening here has been an exercise in annoyance, but also great amusement. Lying about Australia has always been australians favorite past time (ie Drop bears, Riding kangaroos etc). Now the americans are doing it for us

I read a tweet from a Texan this morning that said that Gunner’s support of the Longhorns was really inflammatory as well. Apparently Cruz supports an opposing team. Am guessing Gunner would have known that 🤣

Every 24 hours more Americans die of covid than all Australians have died from covid since the pandemic began almost 2 years ago. Not interested in their opinions tbh.

GiaccAttack check this 🤣

The same my body my choice crowd have no problems in the killing of babies but have issues with people not wanting a vaccine 🤦‍♂️

Example of information that fanniebay needs to know is the fact that 75.7% of UK people who died of DeltaVariant in weeks 37-40 were DOUBLE VACCINATED. I am sure tedcruz knows that.

Lins_Oz I’m betting Teddy here, couldn’t find us on a map!

fanniebay Knows nothing about DeltaVariant and is incapable of learning new Science - he blocked me after I presented him with facts that don't support MandatoryVaccination CoercionIsNotConsent auspol

Well done 👏👏👏tedcruz can’t even defend his wife

MiaReadsBooks He doesn’t know anything about us either but still finds a way to run on in the mouth about everything. 🤥

k

Insurrectionist says whaat?

yvettedube TedIsAnIdiot

Thank you Chief Minister Michael Gunner. We don't need CancunCruz tedcruz to tell us how to run the NorthernTerritory Cruz should look in his own backyard first. It's a trash heap.

‘Sensationally’ that must be a journalist getting over excited

And just like that, Michael Gunner is my favourite person today.

Shirtfront him😎

Cruz said: 'Americans have the right to exercise personal choice when it comes to their health.' I take it he supports Women's right to control their health, including personal safety & rights to control their bodies AbortionIsHealthcare

Go ChiefMinisterGunner “'Nearly 70,000 Texans have tragically died from COVID. There have been zero deaths in the Territory. Did you know that?' he wrote.” antivaxidiots

29 million in Texas and 246,500 in the NT? They also never had an illimitation policy that changed to a living with COVID policy like the failed attempt Australia had. Mandating medical procedures is tyranny! History is pretty clear on that!

Correction, fanniebay, tedcruz knows nothing about anything, except lying and cheating.

He’s kind of is like one of us, when Texas had a major power black out in winter and his constituents started dying from the cold, he went on holiday. Sort of like our PM who went to Hawaii for a holiday during a bushfire crisis, birds of a feather, maybe?

Anyone hitting back at Ted Cruz is my friend. Well done, Mr Gunner!!!

That’s rich. Coming from politicians who are fast making Australia look like Bidens America. 🤮

Can you imagine Morrison have the balls or backbone to do something like this.

Michael Gunner:

Cruz should instead focus more on his pastime as the Zodiac Killer. At least that was moderately more of a success.

Good on you Michael. We don't need some outsider poisoning our citizens.Should be a law against foreign propaganda infiltrating our media sites.

One thing is absolutely true, Robertito Cruz, that disgusting Cuban-Canadian fake Texan Trumper, knows nothing.

Half the population in US have no clue about outside world. The other half is controlled by evil murdoch's foxlies network spreading conspiracy theories to Gun/Bible nutters. COVID-19 is a pandemic that doesn't care about political affiliations.

A tale of two leaders. A dickhead in Cruz and a genius in Gunner. Thank goodness we have more of the genius class in Australia. 700,000 Covid dead Americans would have wished that Cruz et al were crushed early in the pandemic.

What a mess both Greg Abbott and Cruz have made in Texas. We're doing fine by comparison. Texas is possibly the state most infected with the Trump cult.

“Sensationally”. ‘Hitting back’ at Ted Cruz is a national pastime among sane people in the United States.
