South Australians will not be able to return to their home state from Victoria unless they are essential travellers, starting at one minute past midnight tonight.Even South Australian residents in Victoria will not be allowed to return homeIt's among a raft of new restrictions designed to prevent Melbourne's surging coronavirus crisis spreading west into the neighbouring state.
The laws will take effect this evening after Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews on Monday announced 549 new cases of COVID-19 in the state.What are the new restrictions? Earlier this month, South Australia imposed a "hard border" that prevented Victorian residents from entering the state unless they were deemed essential travellers.
South Australians have been allowed to return home since then, but have had to quarantine for two weeks and undergo two mandatory coronavirus tests. Under the new restrictions, South Australian residents will be allowed to enter Victoria but they will not be permitted to return.
Co-parenting arrangements across two states still not considered essential? Makes you wonder...

Beijing’s South China Sea reaction ‘doesn’t correspond with reality’ | Sky News AustraliaLiberal MP Dave Sharma has downplayed talk of tensions with China over Australia’s submission to the United Nations rejecting Beijing’s maritime claims in the South China Sea. \n\nThe government has backed the United States in opposing China's construction of artificial islands and military bases in the strategic waterway, claiming it was invalid. \n\nMr Sharma told Sky News Australia’s move was “unremarkable' and only “reflects our legal position on these views on the legitimacy of certain territorial claims made in the South China Sea”. \n\n“We were, in fact, responding to a Chinese submission there so it would be odd if we didn’t put our own legal view on the record here, there’s nothing provocative about that,” he said. \n \n“It’s a straight-forward act in international affairs … and I think the reaction, at least from some quarters in China …. doesn’t really correspond with the reality.\n\nImage: AP DaveSharma Sharma Llama Ding-Dong DaveSharma You can tell Australia is a mess when Dave Sharma has to play the adult when it comes to diplomatic relations with China in the Liberal Party. DaveSharma So we can assume, Zionist Israel claim to Palestine will be revoked?
