Shadow Early Childhood Education Minister Amanda Rishworth has rejected suggestions Queensland should follow the example set by South Australia and reopen borders to all Australians except Victorians. “Every state and territory has got to make the decision based on their own information and own calculation,” she told Sky News.
“Steven Marshall as premier has rejected the prime minister’s calls in the past, he’s now made a decision based on his own advice and I think all premiers need to have the responsibility to do that. “The prime minister does not take responsibility when cases go up, when cases go down. “So each state should be responsible for doing it themselves.”

Hotel quarantine fiasco an 'unprecedented failure of governance and accountability' | Sky News AustraliaThe Australian’s Editor-at-Large Paul Kelly says Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews' performance at Friday’s hotel quarantine inquiry in many ways demonstrated an “unprecedented failure of governance and accountability”. \n\nMr Andrews testified that he had no expectation of support from the Australian Defence Force to run the hotel quarantine scheme. \n\nHowever, an examination of Mr Andrews' statements over the past six months by Sky News host Peta Credlin uncovered a statement in March where he stated categorically that he had been offered the use of Australian troops by the Prime Minister.\n\nLetters obtained by Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell also revealed Prime Minister Scott Morrison personally pressured Premier Andrews to accept ADF troop support on at least three separate occasions in July. \n\nMr Kelly told Sky News there is a 'closed circle in terms of the failure of the government and the failure of the Premier to properly explain to the people of Victoria what happened”.\n\n“We know with documentary evidence the details of the Morrison government’s offers to Victoria at both the political and bureaucratic level to get ADF support,' he said.\n\n“You would have thought that after the deaths of so many people, the hardship imposed on millions, the damage done to the Victorian economy, that we would have a leader in Victoria with the decency and sense of obligation to explain what happened.\n\n“Well we don’t have that. Instead we have the Health Minister quitting after the Premier held her accountable.\n\n“It is extraordinary that we now have a government that cannot explain itself and cannot explain its own ineptitude.' \n\n What a load of sh&t. Thankfully most Victorians don’t care for this disgraceful and openly bias so called ‘media’ outlet. More like thugs and bullies who are paid too much money. boycottMurdochmedia springst Michael O’Brien says each and every ALP parliamentarian in Victoria has no interest in governance or accountability. By contrast, a LNP government would be transparent and operating to the strictest standards. That’s the difference between “quality” people and riff raff If you want to talk about government failure of accountability it all started with a cruise ship! 2,000 people disembarked spreading Covid19 across Australia Why haven't heads rolled over that?
