I was referring to Aussies living overseas. Even though the majority of the population living in Australia thinks of us as parasites, we would like to be able to spend Xmas/New Years with family and friends in Australia - however, if we need to isolate - home or hotel, this may be impossible for tens of thousands of us who need to be in the office now for at least 2-3 days per week.
The other massive issue, and I cannot stress this enough is transport back to Australia. If the UK for whatever reason is on the "green" list - what happens to all the Aussies in continental Europe?
Furthermore, the M/E 3 need to be viable modes of transport for us - if the Aussie government decides that we have to travel direct - which means only QF (or maybe SQ if SIN is green) - what do we do then if we can't get a seat on SQ or QF (and I'm certain those seats will go very quickly)?
