From 3:30pm yesterday afternoon to 9:30pm the Vic govt announcing plans to shut down and then back pedalling at the behest of the PM is wildly unprofessional (lack of a better term) and smashing confidence in people.

Have any Liberal states broken ranks.....

From what I gather Fed and State did meet to discuss the latest measures, seems cohesive enough given the situation.

The govt (state and fed) are under no obligation to fill the public in on the minutes of every meeting they have. Just because it isn't reported in the news, doesn't mean it didn't happen. There is nearly always an agenda with mainstream media (and social media) and sticking up for the govt is never it. Its always trying to tear it down or belittle it. Thats fact. The sheeple then jump on board.

Scomo, like any govt, is just a mouthpiece at the end of the day. The decisions are worked out by those in the meetings and he gets to deliver the news to the public.

Then the public just ignore it and do their own thing creating a mixture of panic and blaze attitudes.

Unless it was a hoax there was a statement at around 3:30 yesterday from Daniel Andrews saying he intends to notify cabinet that Victoria will enter a state of shutdown over the next 48 hours.

This was followed by an inundation from my staff wondering if they still had a job.

By 9:30pm the Scott Morrison had talked them out of it.

And then new cases surged.

Expect the states to tell ScoMo to eat a richard and to make their own announcements.

Seems an odd thing to publicly declare intent without knowing if you can do it?

People also need to start thinking for themselves. If they are not comfortable then act, or dont, they are not stood down until told so keep on going otherwise.

Interesting, according to our CEO mining is deemed essential, not sure who is defining that but that will burn the Greens..LOL
