What’s the plan when Canberra turns the tap off in 8 weeks? If Jetstar want to stand down it’s Sydney or Melbourne base again in April, May, June, the consequences are quite dire for all these workers.
If Canberra want to cut the government assistance to zero, fair enough, it’s had its run, however push all foreign arrivals to inland to prevent any spread around the states, to keep the domestic tourism alive.
The focus for the next half needs to be on keeping domestic tourism and travel alive. Less talk about international let’s try and protect and look after our own backyard for the next year.
I am seeing a lot of talk around International bubbles and so forth, we seem to have enough trouble keeping our states open let alone abroad.
