Gladys Berejiklian in trouble?

[craigos]

Sydney people doing the wrong thing again, no wonder they're in this mess. Wouldn't happen in <insert my state>.

 

[Dave]

Just wow. People are stupid.

 

[Magruder]

Good result this today for NSW. Feel like these numbers are going to bounce around for quite some time though.

This is a pause, 170 is the new 95-110 from a week or so back.

The virus doesn't operate on a weekly cycle or daily cycle but people certainly do...

95k tests - how many of those are people undergoing repeat mandatory testing.
7 day average still comfortably higher than 14 day count.
300 + is on the cards very soon, particularly with increasing "wild" count.

In two weeks 250-280 will feel like a good result.

Must lock down properly.

If they are a few days behind in testing, then this is the weekend dip

 

[Magruder]

If they are a few days behind in testing, then this is the weekend dip

partly from last weekend with the spike reflective of the current situation to come shortly

 

[Ghost Patrol]

They are running out of AZ as well?

Hazzard is cooked man

 

[BFew]

No Gladys!
It is not ok that they not care about the rest of us and only their family and loved ones.

Why would you be so stupid to say something like this?
Twice in different parts of this presser.

They need to care about both the groups you foolishly talk about.

YOU'RE WALKING AROUND WITH A DEADLY WEAPON. YOU ARE BASICALLY A TERRORIST. ADF WILL SHOOT ANY SNEEZER ON SITE.

Then again maybe the restrictions are starting to work. I doubt it though.

 

[Gough]

Just wow. People are stupid.

While people like Morrison believe that people who require government support are immoral and at fault themselves we'll keep seeing this. If they want people to stay at home and stop transmission there has to be more than the army on the streets. If people can't pay rent or put food on the table they'll be forced into dangerous situations.

Still looks pretty rare to me, bit more time in the oven should fix that.

 

[BFew]

Is this possibly a reflection of Gladys?

Does she only care about herself and her family and loved ones, and not give much of a s**t about the rest of us?

 

[Ice-Wolf]

"Not at an organised pace but with a sense of urgency"

Did Gladys misspeak there or is she an idiot?

So yes Gladys you are stealing vaccines from Regional NSW. Thankyou for your honesty.

Can I just say that she has absolutely no idea. Deer in headlights.

Army to begin patrolling Sydney COVID hotspots to enforce lockdown rules

By Alison Xiao




An ADF soldier on patrol with police in Sydney during a previous lockdown in April 2020.

Hundreds of soldiers will arrive in Sydney today to help police crack down on residents flouting stay-at-home restrictions amid rising case numbers.

Key points:

• Soldiers will begin door-knocking residents on Monday
• They will not be carrying weapons while patrolling Sydney's streets
• Cumberland's Mayor says putting troops on the streets is "extreme"

Three hundred military personnel will undergo training over the weekend before hitting the streets with police on Monday to ensure residents are complying with the health orders.

NSW Police Minister David Elliott said the deployment was necessary because a small minority of people thought "the rules didn't apply to them".

He told Channel Nine that the Australian Defence Force (ADF) officers would be paired with members of NSW Police.

"It will be imminent to see the 300 soldiers on the street," he said.

"It's no different to what we saw in Melbourne last year where the police worked hand in glove with the military to ensure they could have that intelligence-based compliance checks done quickly and swiftly."

NSW police and Australian Defence Force soldiers patrol Sydney streets on a previous joint operation in April 2020.

Mr Elliott said the federal government first offered military help on July 7 but up until now the government hadn't thought it necessary.

But yesterday, as case numbers rose dramatically, the NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller formally requested help from the ADF in enforcing Sydney's lockdown.

Commissioner Fuller said the ADF assistance would allow police to double the number of house calls they can make in the eight local government areas (LGAs) of concern.

"There's 2,000 doors we have to knock so to bring Defence in made logistical sense," he said.

"We can double the amount of checks we do in a day by doing a police officer with a member of the ADF.

"They don't come with powers and they won't be carrying firearms but they come with an enormous amount of training, very disciplined, they understand the task."

Commissioner Fuller said police had been stretched across a number of COVID-19 operations and this was an opportunity to bring in more resources to help maintain public safety in NSW.

Defence Minister Peter Dutton said the ADF officers would act as a "force multiplier" to increase police presence around affected areas.

More than 200 military personnel are already deployed in NSW, working in hotel quarantine and at Sydney Airport.

Cumberland Mayor Steve Christou said deploying the ADF to Western Sydney was an extreme measure and a sign the state government had “lost complete control”.

“The army’s here to defend its people not to be used against them,” he said.

“The army should have been brought in weeks ago to help with other measures; they could have helped with the delivery of the vaccines and the roll out, Meals on Wheels and other logistics.

“To bring them out as a secondary police measure because of the circumstances that the state government has created upon itself is a sign that they’ve lost complete control of this."

Some community groups have also raised concerns about the military presence.

"The impact to mental health is really connected to how they're perceived," said Jorge Aroche, from the NSW Service for Torture and Trauma Survivors.

"I think every effort is to be made (to ensure) we are doing this to assist the population and not as a punitive measure."

Mr Elliott said people should not be fearful of ADF officers, who he said had been helping with bushfire recovery efforts since late 2019.

"It shouldn't be intimidating … you'd be surprised how regularly [the military] is used," he said.

 

[BFew]

How long is "a little while" Gladys?

4 weeks at least?

Or possibly 3 months, or until after Christmas Holiday season?

Pathetic

Maybe if they tried this in Bondi when it all kicked off they might have had a point.

Was happening in Vic last year. I'd walk down to the 7/11 and see army/navy officers. Was surreal.

 

[craigos]

I was chatting to a stunning blonde girl from the Navy last year at a local bay side cafe. Well, I couldn't see her face because of the mask and I couldn't see her body because of the camo but boy oh boy you can imagine it, right.

But but Bondi are exempt from any covid measure dont you know.

Hazzard is cooked man

being prepped as an escape goat for the teflon Gladimia

 

[HairyO]

or down to Bondi

Why Bondi? There have been no new cases outside of isolation in weeks.

Maybe if they tried this in Bondi when it all kicked off they might have had a point.

Bondi was fine very quickly because people followed the rules. There is no evidence anyone got it at the beach or walking around outside.

There is an enormous amount of evidence that extended families in the south west and west have been illegally getting together and spreading it around.
