All borders to reopen.
Its a real sh1t show in Cairns - masks on, masks off, masks on, masks off..... wheel of fortune seems to have stopped on masks on.
Will Queen P be expecting the federal government to issue handouts to business that will lose income this school holidays? This will go on more than 3 days. NSW have already called 1400 ppl in Byron instructing them to isolate.

Couldn't be worse timing, the wider issue is further erosion of confidence in forward bookings. Yields are already [email protected] poor, sales do not provide confidence in booking, people need flexibility in ticket conditions

I heard Vic has made Brisbane a 'RED' area from 6pm today so the loads will be very light on bne-mel flights once 6pm kicks in.THANKS AGAIN QUEEN P.

Local traffic reports describing it as an 80km carpark!
Not so bad north of the map, surprisingly.

They need to work on their marketing. Instead of calling it a lockdown, just mandate masks. It’s essentially the only difference anyway.

Except for not going to work unless essential, bars closed, cafes and restaurants take away only. No visits to friends. Cinemas closed. Gyms? Schools closed. Essential shopping only.
Just the same...

No, that’s not what I’m actually going to do, but please tell me more about how having the city flee to other regions to escape the lockdown in a panic is a better result than simply mandating masks. I’ll be going about my normal life tomorrow with the addition of a mask.
“Essential” is a joke of a definition. Everyone will justify everything and no one will question it. Westfield Chermside will be open ffs. So why panic everyone with a “lock down” when you can achieve similar outcomes with less alarming language and measures.

The term "lockdown" is a bit of a joke. I mean, the two lockdowns we've had here in Perth, myself and people I know didn't really go about our lives any differently... Apart from not being able to dine in a restaurant or go to a pub, I didn't restrict my movement at all and continued to visit family and friends, go for a browse at the shops, head to the beach.. nothing really that different. That's why I laugh when I hear that word.
Also, I wonder how many of this new cluster are seriously ill in Queensland?

The future of this country will be random lockdowns, border closures with fear and scare tactics from the politicians forcing vaccinations. It's already been said by Queeny on national news.
