Wish speedy recovery for kid.

Don’t wish any sickness upon him but thankfully we get a break from his daily political posturing. Week off might also give him a chance to get his affairs in order. Come March 2022, he will be gone 😎

the has been silent of South Australia for the last two years, two weeks will make no difference!! auspol

Morrison, Marshall and Perrottet & Co have really buggered things up. Floodgates open to Covid. “Living with Covid. - ha! People are dying with it. Businesses closing. Hospitality, medical & tourism in SA crippled. Hospital, medical, testing and ambulance all buckled at knees.

So what?

I suppose now Libs are going down like flies we'll see some support auspol

Classified as a close contact because he had dinner with his daughter. Unless that dinner was 4+ hours long, in NSW he wouldn't have even been classed as a close contact...

Isolation is pointless now, an absolute shit show down under and who is in charge?Hazmerreir

I wonder how long it'll take for the borders to slam shut again now... it's only an issue when it affects them personally right?

I'm told the vaccines may produce significant immunity after the 33rd shot but need to be 2 weeks apart & an equal mix of Pfizer then Moderna & so on until the 33rd J&J which will be made available when required. Monthly booster of choice will be fine from the 33rd shot.

Whilst fed LNPs and NSW boy premier hide when the going gets tough, SA premier has always fronted up to the media. Like him or loathe him - but respect his genuineness.

bank whether brother

I wish her a speedy recovery. 🙏

Not my political colour, but he’s been very protective of his populace. I wish him well.

Stare it down Steve, that’s the only advice we have

When is Morrison going to get it?

They dropping like flies. Joyce. Fridenberg. Turnbull. Gotta love let it rip neoliberal maddness. Hopefully they are having deep regrets now.

Tested positive for seamen too

Soooo... He's gonna intrude on a breast cancer related cricket match right? 🙄

Good. Stay there. Don't come back out.
