While Josh Frydenberg fights a pointless war with Dan Andrews, the latest stats show that unemployment is rising again under his watch. Businesses shed more than 110,000 jobs in just a fortnight after he slashed the rate of JobKeeper thenewdaily.com.au/finance/financ…
Morrison enacted travel bans after Trump, and hotel quarantine after Ardern.
The lockdowns, testing, and contact tracing were run by States.
Morrison's great achievement for Covid was, unlike the bushfires, just turning up.
He is not the hero of Australia's Covid response.

Not 'some owners'. Hundreds. It was ignorant and insensitive. Victorians have sacrificed. Not comforted sick parents. Not gone to funerals. Cancelled weddings. Businesses closed. And you exempted a bloody horse race.

This is a really interesting chat with Lindsay Fox on @RNBreakfast. He calls out business leaders and politicians for not “uniting” and focusing on the virus - and that while he doesn’t agree with every VIC decision, backs Andrews for having “the balls” to do it
Trucking tycoon Lindsay Fox on Daniel Andrews and the harsh Melbourne lockdown:
"To the Premier's credit, he's had the balls to stay through the problem that started, and he's carried it through."

On @RNBreakfast Kerry O'Brien (who I was lucky enough to work with while I was Finance Editor of @abc730 2004-2008) says this and it is key:
Too many political interviewers focus on politics rather than policy
I agree. It is the single most important thing they get wrong

If you read the newspaper front pages, you'd be convinced that business is united against Melbourne's lockdown. But that's not the stance of trucking magnate Lindsay Fox. He supports the city's slow and steady road out of lockdown. @RNBreakfast

#RNBreakfast worth listening to Fran Kelly interviewing Lindsay Fox who wants us all to pull together and get off Dan Andrews back, in opposition to the campaign by other Big Business .. the imputation that he is an #ALP stooge was dismissed roundly leaving Fran a bit shocked
Fran Kelly’s interview with Lindsay Fox is well worth a listen. He eloquently argued there is no excuse for political game playing (hello media and Liberals) while Australia tries to fight pandemic. He supports restrictions until it’s safe, and said everyone should work together.

Scale what is happening in North Dakota (pop 762K) to Victoria (pop 6.5M), and we'd be having ~8000 cases & ~80 deaths per day (and rising). I can't help thinking that arguments about Vic opening retail & hospitality next week or next fortnight are matters of extreme nuance.

This is absolute tripe @RitaPanahi Strong women like @sumeyyailanbey @laurelirving7 and @bridgerollo all take @DanielAndrewsMP to task. I would submit the responses have much more to do with the tone of the question, rather than the gender of the journalist.
OPINION: It can make for uncomfortable viewing as the Premier switches from the jovial, matey tone he reserves for male journalists to the barely concealed disdain he appears to have for the contingent of women who’ve challenged him. bit.ly/3keB5Xz

And I thought Dan Andrews didn’t listen to the “loudest voices” and didn’t do what was “popular” - so how does he explain this backflip? #DanMustGo #DanMadeDisaster
The backflip is welcome, but it does make you wonder whether this government actually understands the suffering endured in lockdown.
Perhaps it's time for these ministers to come down from the dais and reconnect with the community.

The decision to allow some owners on course for the 100th Cox Plate was motivated only by respect for the occasion & a desire to mark a small step on the path to reopening. It was a mistake, given that other restrictions remain in place, and we’ve heard the community feedback 1/2

"To the Premier's credit, he's had the balls to stay through the problem that started, and he's carried it through."
The lawsuit comes two weeks after Democratic lawmakers released a sprawling report on tech giants, saying they had turned from “scrappy” start-ups into “the kinds of monopolies we last saw in the era of oil barons and railroad tycoons.” nytimes.com/live/2020/10/2…
Wow almost had a !!!!! It is so refreshing to see appreciation by a big business tycoon for the measures undertaken. It is what many should have done. Unity
NSW Labor and the crossbench have suspended Don Harwin, the Leader of the Government in the Legislative Council after he failed to provide documents showing the Premier’s involvement in grant rorts. The vote was 23-15. #nswpol

NASA's first asteroid sampling spacecraft. I'm on a 7-year mission to return a pristine sample from asteroid Bennu.
There’s a NASA spacecraft PUNCHING AN ASTEROID in about half an hour. If all goes well, @OSIRISREx will be bringing a sample of asteroid Bennu home to Earth. #ToBennuAndBack

"We're going in." "Touchdown declared. Sampling is in progress." @OSIRISREx touched the surface of asteroid Bennu to capture rocks & dust with its robotic arm. After this brief TAG (Touch-And-Go maneuver), it will fire thrusters to back away to a safe distance. #ToBennuAndBack@NASA

Excellent piece here by @sallyrugg #auspol Spare us the damsel defence, Gladys. It's an insult to women smh.com.au/national/spare…
I know a carefully crafted media play when I see one. Berejiklian’s act is false, insulting AND calculated.

Word in Canberra is that the PM was "incandescent with rage" at the idea his budget was 'blokey'. @1RossGittins explains why it is, indeed, a blokey budget, why @ScottMorrisonMP can't see that & why that blokey lens, means, in sheer economic terms, it fails to deliver.

Just heard @PhillipCorey say there’s no ‘logical reason’ why Andrews is continuing to have businesses shut in Victoria. How about this for a logical reason Phil? Andrews is doing everything he can to avoid a covid third wave! You speak like he’s being vindictive. It’s disgraceful
The Victorian Premier has released modelling and a roadmap for recovery - a plan. Unlike Federal LNP Government saying it has plans but never has a plan - because explicitness would reveal its Social Darwinism. Superficial observations by journalists are so boring and annoying.
A cartoon around currently shows a patient asking a doctor when the pandemic will be over. The doctor replies "I don't know, I am not a journalist". Says it all really.

21 October 2014: Gough Whitlam died. He was a great Australian political leader (not a great administrator, it has to be said). A great leader with a vision for the country.
We need someone with a vision for the country's future, not just his own

On this day in 2014, Edward Gough Whitlam died. I do not care what anyone else thinks, I'll forever be in his debt for making it possible for working-class people like me to go to university. It's one of many reforms that wouldn't have happened under a Liberal-National government
Gough made it possible for countless women trapped in violent marriages to escape via no-fault divorce laws and criminalising rape in marriage. Then provided financial support for them and their children. What a great Australian.

The Morrison Government can’t be trusted with your money. That’s why we need an independent, powerful and transparent National Integrity Commission.
It was worth $3 million. They paid $30 million. And the Deputy Prime Minister is still trying to tell us that it was a good investment. Someone tell him he's dreaming. pic.twitter.com/a3iNhzehPU

Can't wait to hear about the science and data.
The decision to allow some owners on course for the 100th Cox Plate was motivated only by respect for the occasion & a desire to mark a small step on the path to reopening. It was a mistake, given that other restrictions remain in place, and we’ve heard the community feedback 1/2

Melbourne and Victorian people should be holding their heads up. Thanks again Brett Sutton , all health workers and Dan Andrews and the team and you media workers, well, you've mostly shat in your own nest.
Why would Sutton think private security is a problem? Priv security do hospitals. Every shift I do (I'm a nightshifter) security walk through the ward, check fire escape, check other doors are locked. Wards have iso flu etc and worse. NOW a prob in hotels? In hindsight only
