I understand that being a moderator is a tough job but retyred needs to stop removing threads and info
i like to make up my own mind about what people post

if you need to remove or edit a post to meet rules of this forum sure go for it but blanket removal of info is not helpful and you have to step back and moderate these discussions in the threads by the forum rules not your personal opinions

It's started, I went shopping today and it seems nobody is bothering too much with social distancing Etc. any more. Protests were held on the parliament steps in Melbourne, people have had enough of the extreme lockdown. Dan would be wise to loosen things up if he wants to remain premier after the next election. I just hope the financial havoc the lockdowns have created does not mean that people who have lost their income end up losing their homes too.

There were some arrests, presumably for social distancing.

They're very lucky the virus isn't more widespread, this happened after the US protests:

Yep more and more folks are out and about regardless, They need to announce some decent relaxations if they want to maintain popular cooperation otherwise it will get out of hand.

Hopefully he was holding off until after mothers day simply because families visiting their olds enmasse was a high risk event
