Don't have the answer but at some stage a tipping point has to be reached where the good of Australia has to override the perception/whim of individual state and territory leaders.

With the present mentality W.A. will NEVER open again - and that is both bull**** and intolerable.
If ScoMo thought he could get away with that he'd have done it by now.
His government was elected with a two seat majority, lost that majority for a while, but now has it back.

He would be on a flogging to nothing if he was to further tread on the toes of three (of six) Labor states while pushing a federalist wheelbarrow over closed borders.
He tried it for a while by backing Clive Palmer's High Court challenge but someone must have had a whisper in his ear.
