In late December, call a March Election.? If I can't fly by then, voting will be easy. I will take it out on the antagonist. If Scomo declares a Freedom day by then, he will win in spades, and a chance to kill Labor for good. Airlines are probably waiting to see the election result.

Perhaps restrictions are artificial and deliberate. Treasury mentioned that Aussies spend more abroad than tourists bring in, and assumptions were wrong. You then have RBA killing the $kangalebapound with low interest rates. There is record pent-up OS travel demand, some Aussies cash positive...

ACT, Barr performance tells me he is sticking to a master plan, including whole of Australia. WT should WA's and laggard states be added into the decision numbers. ACT is an island, and must be roughly equal with Northshore NSW. One month more, sounds poor, because 'Essential workers' because...

Dan's may be getting me back. Liquorland's online 10% off and free postage fathers day has not arrived 13 days later, and picked 10 days later! No apologies or explanation. Liquorland HQ is mess and their online ops are in chaos! BTW I cut myself on a broken wine bottle. The ones at Aldi seem...

The roaring vaccination rates, are cutting that probability daily. We would really need emergency triage to get those numbers. But only preventable deaths matter. We then discount that number for the loosers that elected to take their chances (excluding genuine medical) by not seeking the jab...

The people 90% fully vaccinated NOW in Schofields, 90% in Edmondson Park, with Ku-ring-ga and Newport not far behind want to know when they can book their overseas trips having done the heavy lifting and all calls to be vaccinated. They can easily home quarantine. In a few weeks time, there will...

Australian travel insurance has always been grossly overpriced, and exception ridden, some multiple of comparable countries such as UK. Add in cost of flight changes that can exceed ticket cost. Car hire insurance moreso. Yearly insurance is more in the ballpark. I doubt credit card insurance...

Agree. It would be corrupt behavior. And to keep the NDA's existence secret, another black mark. Looks like Pfizer's PR job is rubbing salt into the wounds of a gagged minister. I remember in the 1970's the Cwth ordered 1000's of cars off Leyland to preserve the Australian car industry. And the...

News: Vaccine Passports on the way in. NSW/Gladys says NSW will open the airports and home quarantine when 80% fully vaccinated. Perhaps possible mid October. If vaccinated here. And using a locally developed face recognition app. Sounds fair to me. However I am not aware of any Australian...

There is a bit of Negative news on Greg Hunt and delays in stitching a deal for Pfizer. Below are some interesting links putting things in perspective. All while cooking up an inversion deal! Maybe Australia was treated like Argentina. The lot more of it would be unilateral secrecy agreements...

NSW numbers stabilized today, we almost have a baseline marker to update predictions. But only because of a hardish lockdown. A+ to the TTIQ tracers. BTW those markers will frighten WA and QLD who are so far behind - especially 70 and up. I do not begrudge Cwth swiping some doses for...

Dr John Campbell on Youtube has been busy. But Professor Pollard (UK) says Covid will be endemic, and we will be living with it for a while. My take is WA and Qld stroll out is criminal, as a breakout is a certainty, just like NZ. While Vic and NSW will do their best, the risk of cross border...

Put your brain into management mode. APH spends a lot on spin artists, and re-election promotion, and nudge theory. The ACT minister just blabbed there is silence about what happens at 80%. Perhaps the states disagree, won't come on board, or worse. Public division looses votes/poll ratings so...

Maybe this post belongs in news, maybe not, because Gladys did not answer simple covid questions. Todays press conference was interesting. And I just add South Korea, also now says 3 doses are needed for full vaccination. NSW will look stupid if the OECD makes the same announcement before...

If anyone is stupid to flash a forgery, it is just a matter of time before they are caught, and forgery and deception carry a higher penalty than outright theft. And exposure to civil action allowing patrons to be banned from entry or directly sued. The numbers are big enough to be picked up by...

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-58380867 NZ reports first suspected Pfizer vaccine related death. Another country is chasing up two leads.

Name the states that don't want quarantine in their own backyard, but are more than happy to shift it to the Cwth and Howard Springs. In China your mobile phone alone is sufficient. Anyone who cheats becomes an involuntary organ donor.

I am I am a solid PRO vaxxer, and had both AZ shots 12+ weeks apart. I fully encourage vaccination, and told all my friends to beat the rush and get it early. I even suggested mass vaccination centres when the Cwth Govt was activity preventing NSW from doing this. And I am pro booster too...

Taking Pifzer is better than nothing. I saw a graph indicating for the un-vaccinated --- acute kidney disease is 172 per 100K (zero in vaccinated), but nothing about details or permanency . The community cost of people with kidney problems is mega high, especially if young. I also hear V02...
