'We cannot protect you': Premier's plea to unvaccinated QLD residentsPremier Annastacia Palaszczuk has seemingly hinted at a border reopening in December as she made a social media plea for Queenslanders to roll up their sleeves and get vaccinated against coronavirus ahead of Christmas. So looking to reopen in time for Summer and school holidays when her Southern Eastern States populations would be looking at spending tourist $$ - no thanks not while she’s still premier. Save your breath I know we aren’t welcome from our “disease riddled” states anyway 🤣🤣🤣 What a joke, if she had done this with the Astra Zeniica vaccine the borders could be open now. Instead the government let a fear campaign linked to very rare side effects contribute to wide spread vaccine hesitancy. Gold standard Annastacia, saving Queensland a step at a time.

Tax time 2021: Deadline for DIY tax returns just days away as fines loomAustralians lodging their own tax return have just over two weeks to submit their income details to the ATO. Usually you would not get a fine if you have a refundable amount. Also if you are with a registered tax agent(don't use H & R Block seriously) you have until 15th May next year to lodge. Okay. I'm confused about something. I have heard many times of people who have years of tax returns they haven't put in. Not business owners, or complicated matters, just straight out PAYE taxpayers. How do they get away with it? I've always been curious.
