Frankly, I do not care what some ignorant morons think; I wear my mask when in shops, and try to keep distance from people.

I quite happy with Vic's premier and his leadership, what more would you like him to do?

[davidc4430]

hows about stopping people from flying to other states, nsw has said it doesnt want them.

hows about not letting footballers travel interstate

hows about not making stupid statements like

who wants to holiday in south australia? when told we wont open the border to his virus riddled state

[bright.ton42]

Agree  NSW doesn't want them.  So it's up to our premier to close the vic/nsw borders.  So it's harsh but so is the nasty little weasly bug.

Re footballers imo all the codes  should be pulled into exactly the same line as we lesser mortals, and obey all the restrictions, no ifs or buts.  I'm tired of one rule for them and another for the rest of us.  So the fans are unhappy well be unhappy then.  .

The reason the borders were not and will never shut is because we have border town each side of the Murray

river and at least one of those two towns needs access to the other side for shopping,medical,schooling,etc.

Other states don't seem to understand that they can't just close the borders between Vic and NSW due to the

border towns.

There are over 30 bridges and roads across the Murray so impossible to police and neither state would do so.

Thanks for that, I didn't realize.

The hardest border to close would be between Albury and Wodoga, imo it would create chaos on both side of the river
