Police Minister Mark Ryan said Queensland will take “tough” action on its border controls, including directing Australians who have been in or from Victoria straight to hotel quarantine.
“Yes, that might mean some inconvenience, and, yes, when you’re crossing the border you might think that you’re OK, but what about the people in the car in front of you, and what about the people in the car behind you? “Make no mistake about it, we will do whatever it takes to keep Queenslanders safe and to keep this virus out of Queensland because we know that when you have this virus spreading through communities, and you can see that around the world right now, that there are tragic and devastating outcomes.”
He also explained why there were massive queues at the NSW-Queensland border on Friday, after the state brought in a new pass needed to enter from midday on Friday.
I hope Victoria is not supplying the motel quarantine security.

Vic hotel quarantine a 'scandal of monumental proportions' | Sky News AustraliaVictorian Liberal MP Tim Smith has branded Melbourne’s hotel quarantine system “a scandal of monumental proportions'. \n\nVictorian Liberals are calling for Health Minister Jenny Mikakos to be sacked over the quarantine debacle. \n\n“This is a complete fiasco and not one, single minister in Daniel Andrews’ government here in Victoria has taken responsibility,' he said. \n\nReports emerged on Friday that security guards employed to enforce quarantine measures on returned travellers were accepting cash in hand while also receiving JobKeeper payments.\n\nSome guards also reportedly took guests isolated in hotels out to local shops. \n\n“We need a minister to take responsibility for this debacle, for the government to accept they got it completely wrong and explain to the people of Victoria and indeed the entire country why they didn’t call in the ADF to manage hotel quarantine like NSW did months ago,” Mr Smith said. \n\n“Victorians have endangered the entire country and Victorians are now the pariahs of the entire country. \n\n“At least the Police Minister, the Health Minister or the Jobs Minister must lose their job over this catastrophe and if they don’t it shows you that this Labor government here in Victoria is a total farce.” \n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n\n\n TimSmithMP Can't argue with that ! TimSmithMP Little TiMMY at it again too bad nobody listerns TimSmithMP Incompetence at its best

It’s the security companies fault if they were properly trained Katherine Keating daughter of Australian former Prime Minister Paul should be next for the shoulder tap by FBI. These security companies were employed to do a job and they failed spectacularly and have put many lives at risk
