Evil? Maybe not but they certainly aren't helping matters.
What about the Liberal fascist party?
They are ticking all the boxes.
Dutton must be made of Teflon cause shit ain't sticking
To mention any Australian political group in the same sentence as the Chinese Communist Party leaders is breathtakingly ignorant.
Lock down domestic flights out of Wuhan but allow them to fly internationally. FMD to willfully spread the virus is evil. They hold Uighur muslims in "re-education" prison for no crimes, they disappear people who dont tow the party line, they engage in debt trap diplomacy with broke countries to lock them into China's agenda and that is without going back into the millions killed in the cultural revolution. All of this pales in comparison to any gripes you have with Morrison or Dutton.

I will not be downloading the app and I consider myself a true blue aussie bloke type thing.

I have a few reasons why I won't.

(1) I don't own a far-can mobile phone. Never have and it is my goal in life not to ever own one.

(2) Over time I have been offered Free phones - I just don't want one.

(3) I'll tell you why. Ive worked from home for decades now. I have a perfectly working answering system on my phone. When I leave the house I don't want to be disturbed / interrupted by some far - can thing ringing in my pocket.

(4) Nothing pisses me off more than when I walk around "anywhere" these days I see dickheads staring down into the palms of their hand trying to keep up with 'todays' world. Go out for a meal it is the same thing. Socialize it is the same thing. Family get togethers it is the same thing.

The whole joints lost the plot.

Anyhow I am expecting an app to come out soon to identify people that don't have mobile phones. It will make the whites in their eyes flash flouro green.

No decent person, expects people to go out and buy an I Phone Quigs if they don't need it or costwise.
Probably why it's not mandatory.
A lot of elderly people don't have them.

I understand some people with them are wary, because of the big brother syndrome.It's just that for the whole media check situation to be effective, they need a decent % of those who do have one ,download it.

If Govts other than the Libs were in power,I'd still download.

I agree with the transfixed morons who cross busy roads with their phones ablaze with info, the country is breeding zombies.

Mine is a camera
A recording studio
A computer
A calculator
A calendar
A bank
A book
A newspaper
A clock
A television
A letter sender
and a telephone.

A multi tasker ,a damn pity some of our players can't multi task on the field.We'd have to get two trophy cabinets.

One thing for sure businesses now have worked out they don’t need to lease out expensive office space anymore, my brother and sister in law have been told they’d be permanently working at home now....
I’ve filled my company car once since the start of March
It’s still not even a qtr used.

They are realising as well, a business gets a lot more from workers at home (if they can) - I’ve been working remotely part time for over 5 years now and full time is a god send. When we return to normal life I’d say the option will be there for going to 4 days a week from 2.
Way of the future

I am actually loving this self isolating thing. I see people slowing down and learning to enjoy what they have around them. A bloody great reality check really.

Just do it you miserable knob.
It does not track you.

I may come into contact with someone in the early stages who has no symptoms.
They get sick and activate the app.
Next week I get notified.
I get tested and find out I have it.
Therefore I don’t go and visit my mum who I haven’t seen since March the 5th.
She is unwell and this would kill her without a doubt.
That’s why people should download it.

it’s got nothing to do with scomo or politics.
I don't care about the tracking part I have nothing to hide, problem is the NSW police and feds are corrupt to the core. I'll download after Angus Taylor and spud head do.
The app is useless, instead people should take precautions, self isolate, don't go to Bunnings etc.
There's a hidden agenda behind this scheme as usual and an "early mark" is not one

So it doesn’t track you but the feds and the NSW cops ( whom had zero to do with it’s design ) are using it to gain something that is corrupt????

So don’t go to Bunnings etc?
“Etc” being a supermarket?

You didn’t think this one through real well did you.

So .... its all good here because China is led by Evil ,nationalistic ,manipulating, power tripping bastards???. Whats new ??? I agree with the second part of that just not getting on the" Scomo Disciples " "Appy Clappers" band wagon just yet.
All we've achieved here so far is Flattening of the curve and serious injury to the Economy.. We dont even know if flattening curve will even keep overall death toll down , because it also may be delaying any herd immunity. GB is looking at plasma injections from recovered victims . If that turns out to be the best way to go we wont have many donars . Only take an act of stupidity like some idiot going overseas unecassarily when restrictions lift , or any number of things to get curve rising back up . Its not gone.

I avent got I phone.I found out it wont work on my phone .. didnt like idea of App but now have no further qualms about ignoring it . You can crApp on about it all you like. .

If you listen to the head Medical Office Murphy, he's never stated flattening the curve will solve situation 100%.Only that it is a strong step on the way to doing so.It may well be ,this virus hangs around for a couple of years, and we have to live with it, like we do with the winter flu.
We had people book trips overseas, despite warnings from the Govt of the risks.

If ScoMo had been away or kept out of it, the usual bunch of suspects would lay into him .Because he's been at the forefront(which he should be) the same suspects bag him.
If he had done a Trump or Boris there would be fair reason to bag him.
It's got zero to do with him alone and the happy clapper routine,which the usual suspects continue to throw up, because they can.
It's a combo of Govts, Federal and State(of both political parties). medical officers Federal and state and the Australian people (except some dopey NRL players)who are doing the right thing .IOW everyone doing their bit.
The app is not mandatory, no one's holding a gun to your head.

Don't be quick to jump on the Evil China Empire bandwagon - the only unanswered question is was the virus accidentally released from Wuhan Lab or deliberately! According to Rothsfield's mob, the players involved in the virus development are Australian Unis and CSIRO , Canada & US! This Plandemic has been in the planning stages for years . So be good citizens, get your App and digital IDs along with your guinea pig vaccine!

I equate the Australian Government to the mafia! Holding my 95yr old mother to ransom
She is in a Nursing Home and that for any family member to visit her on Mothers Day (1 person!) they must ( since the 1st May ) show proof of getting the flu shot. f**king blackmail. Shouldn't these decisions be up to my Mother and not the Govt !! f**k their mandates!

Well done tripean As usual you don't address a single point I made- just trot out your usual obfuscating tripe to protect your ideology.Or try to .Sadly you are not even doing that . Unlike you ,apparently, I am no nostrodamus proclaiming success ,just yet. Im aware of what the chief medical officer said about flattening the curve(What makes you think im not ?) as well as what some others have said . You don't seem to grasp the significance of the choices that have been made . Difficult choices , and I cant say i disagree with them .Would feel better if the leader were not a believer in the superstitious nonsense the Pentocostal churchs use to control people.
