New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says visitors tempted to avoid the country's coronavirus self-isolation regime 'are not welcome' and will be deported.

New Zealand will deport visitors who choose not to self-isolate on arrival and will clamp down on public gatherings in fresh efforts to fight the spread of COVID-19.

Despite New Zealand's reputation as a hospitable destination for tourists, Ms Ardern issued a warning to anyone considering non-compliance."There will be zero tolerance for those who do not follow the rules for self-isolation ... this reinforces how serious we are about protecting the health of New Zealanders.

The government will also enforce self-isolation rules on its own citizens by fining them should non-compliance become a problem.

Suddenly nobody wants open borders. Fancy that.

GrahamMack There's your way home. 👍

Oh for Gods sake..!!! She is completely off her trolley at the Supermarkets with no stock!!

That's how we feel everytime Jacinda Ardern comes to Australia -- She's Not Welcome in Australia ! !

It has already started

We could do with here her

EXCELLENT!

How about returning kiwis? 7NewsAustralia jacindaardern NZStuff

Every person that goes to a different country to work or holiday represent there country so you must abide by the rules and laws of said country

Isn't it time for Australia to close it's borders completely - perhaps give everyone 24 hour notice (excluding those already in the air).

That's a hold on Oz deporting NZ crims for now.

Isnt that Scomo told her about NZ criminals in australia

Why should visitors who come to NZ and feel it is okay not to self isolate not be sent back to their home countries? If they follow the rules they are welcome.

It's NZ. Why does she think this little suburb of the world should/could influence anyone else. Do what you want...nobody cares.

Not so inclusive when an election is imminent. Why would that be?

Subdo2 That means you, Bruce.

She's changes everyday. What an embarrassment.

ScoMo just announced an holistic approach to' Wellness' Deportations of criminal Kiwis back to their suburbs !!!! It is called the ' Leaving on a jetplane bro Program!!!!

Go ScoMo !!!! Doing a bloody fantastic job!!!! He really is the PM of the people!!! 6+++ more years!!!!! 6++++more years!!!! Up Up Cronulla!!!!!

It makes u soo damn happy we live in Australia and not NZ!!!!

She doesn't seem to know whether she is coming or going or Arthur or Martha!!!!! On the 1 small hand she is criticising ScoMo for deporting heinous and dangerous Kiwis back to their own suburbs and the next thing she is threatening to deport all visitors

Came to Australia, we need you

Hypocrisy Exposed

Neither are you

Incident_Alerts Cindy-19 doesn’t deport gangster refugees

Hmmm somewhat hypocritical perhaps?

So hence putting more people at risk.... strange

MSMWatchdog2013 Good on her...strong borders.. as Howard said .. 'we shall decide who comes to our country'...go NZ !

Oh so now it’s ok to deport people who break the law hypocrite

Good on you JA. The world needs more leaders like you.

HowDareYou

She sounds like Morrison

Good move - stay safe Kiwi people!

Wow. Deporting 'criminals' What a hypocrite of the highest order. auspol

We say the same about criminals here

As long as she doesn't start deporting Australians back to Australia, because that could possibly be seen by some as a touch hypocritical...

SBS Exporting her problems, like Australia with Kiwi criminals. Haha.

ScottMorrisonMP this is how you lead a country

Bazinga!

Strong, decisive leadership. So jealous.

Any chance she can be the Australian caretaker PM for just a few months? May need to borrow her whilst we just get through a little health crisis.

Does that apply to your own citizens jacindaardern

And we can't deport NZ criminals back to NZ?

she is a racist because she closed boarders like Trump did and deporting people

Jacinda Ardern to announce huge stimulus for locked down New ZealandThe New Zealand PM foreshadowed the announcement of a major economic stimulus, calling it the 'most significant package that I will announce while I'm Prime Minister'. I should have moved to New Zealand years ago. As an Australian, I have no hesitation in admitting NZ is the better nation, in every possible way. Um, the place will be basically bankrupt. What industries can the stimulus go to? PS - it’s not too late to move there. And ScoMo will steal it 24 hours later!

Australia enforces self-isolation on overseas arrivals, lockdowns on the tableAnyone arriving in Australia from overseas will to be forced to self-isolate for 14 days, Prime Minister Scott Morrison says. But how to make sure they can obey self-isolation strictly, who will monitor them? Question: How do you get home from the airport? Taxi, train, pick-up? Does the virus pause in transit, and drivers, fellow passengers are immune? Any advice here? ... I thought that it could take up to 3 weeks for symptoms to present themselves? Why would the quarantine be less than that?
