Omg. Did any of you clowns even read the article. NSW doesn't even need to declare a state of emergency to give the health minister the same powers Vic is REQUESTING!!! Where is the outrage at the NSW dictatorship Pull your head in.
How about you find out why the Bio Security Act is being IGNORED and OUTRIGHT infringed upon Nah - that'd be REAL journalism now, wouldn't it.
'Power does what it wants'
Hopefully the Victoria's state of emergency powers enable the de-funding of the ABC newsroom, but even if they did they wouldn't because both are radical socialist.
Umm, entering your home without a warrant:
as many as the sheep let them have
None if you have heaps of money and a big boat
No legitimate power to enforce their mandates.
If he has 12 month SoE then parliament will not sit for the entire time. Is this acceptable?
Please remember current legislation states the SoE has to end after 6 months, not that he cannot declare a new one if he can justify it. He can do this over and over. What he seems to want is to extend THIS SoE for a full year. Can anyone think of a why he needs to do this?
Authorities Lol who gave them their fuckn authority Do they forget who they work for? Whose taxes pay their wages? The people working 2 & 3 jobs 14 hour days so they can retire to their comfy homes to rub their weary heads and whine ‘woe is me’ Fuk them! We R the authorities!
Meanwhile, it's the LNP that has assumed absolute power under the State of Emergency. During the human biosecurity emergency period, the Health Minister may: issue any direction to any person (section 478) determine any requirement (section 477)
Not that many, and certainly nothing like the state of disaster, so can we all just calm down ffs
NONE WHATSOEVER!!! It's a bloody pseudo-emergency to begin with, used to justify TYRANNY & OPPRESSION of people. It's a disgrace such deplorable conduct demonstrated by supposedly a 'developed country' that upholds liberty & democratic principles. HYPOCRITICAL BULLSHIT!!!
ZERO if we don't give it to them
Authoritarian powers.

TOO MUCH POWER!!! DictatorDan cannot exercise Executive powers after 6 months of tyranny with the worst outcome in Australia. Victorians say NO to DictatorDan springst
Rules don't fuss the state governments anymore. They simple ignore the Australian constitution and Federal health regs. No where to run to these days.
You people are not short of any excuse to find an excuse to extend the lockdown. The second wave is not over yet and you are already proposing the 3. wave. Stop. Please stop playing with people's fears.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely!
I think they’ve shown they can do whatever the hell they would like and nobody is going to check them on it.
Too much.
