Queensland Opposition leader Deb Frecklington is calling for “a bit of common sense” from Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk when she makes her decision on borders today. Ms Frecklington told Sky News “the Premier doesn’t seem to grasp the economic impact her dithering is making”. “Quite frankly, when you’re looking at 1,000 jobs a week lost, $200 million in economic activity lost every week in this state, we need clear concise messaging,” she said.

Palaszczuk faces decision time on border reopeningThe Queensland Government is expected to reveal today when the state's borders will reopen, but it may not be the date many people are hoping for, as Victoria continues to record a spike in coronavirus cases. While the surge in numbers in Victoria is crucial lets not ignore NSW practice of dropping their active case numbers based on time since first recorded We are the slowest opening state with no community infections. Pretty sure our last community infection was the Victorian strawberry picker ages ago. Open Cooktown to all Queenslanders. There is no isolation when crossing into Queensland anyway, may as well open the borders.

Society should stop pandering to 'intolerant hate mobs' | Sky News AustraliaWestern societies should stop pandering to “crazy, intolerant hate mobs” who are determined to erase history, overturn capitalism and attack law abiding citizens, according to Sky News host Rita Panahi. \n\nThe comments come after Black Lives Matter activists called for the toppling of the Emancipation Memorial in Washington.\n\nThe memorial was established in 1876 and was paid for by freed slaves, who wanted to commemorate the Emancipation Proclamation.\n\nMs Panahi said the controversy surrounding the Emancipation Memorial is part of a disturbing trend.\n\n'Through out this protest we've seen the emergence of a disturbing trend, the unhinged, educated but ignorant anti-racist racists,' she said.\n\n'You know these anti-racist protesters have a lot in common with real racists. Like white supremacists they are obsessed with colour, ethnicity and victimhood, and somehow despite all available evidence they believe that they are both morally and intellectually superior. \n\n'These people think the most important thing about an individual isn't their actions, their character or achievements but the colour of their skin and the suffering of their ancestors.' RitaPanahi So. Western governments should ignore what the people are saying and just do whatever they want? Umm... RitaPanahi Murdoch media anyone? RitaPanahi Brilliant woman, Rita!
