Now there are 0 restrictions in place, it’s time to ‘retire’ these accounts. Still angry about the outrageous overreach & still recovering from the consequences this had for me and my partner. ❤️ To everyone who supported #removethecap — Pieter 👇 linkedin.com/posts/denheten_…

Remember this? I do. Much ❤️ from beautiful Estonia 🇪🇪. I’ve left Australia 🇦🇺 for good because of this. I hope @SenatorWong will prevent this from happening again now she’s in the position. (Congratulations with that btw.) #removethecap #strandedaussies

"We will not look back at this element of our pandemic management with any pride." My piece on #StrandedAussies and #FortressAustralia as we look forward to scenes of Australian families reuniting from Nov 1: latika.me/3vfzFCr – at London, England

A dark chapter in Australia’s history is closing

Fortress Australia is finally crumbling and the insularity that this pandemic has exposed will hopefully be replaced by joy.

Shocked! After the lollipop of 19 months, now said they will allow 120 students p/w. Really, is it your plan? We don't think you want to let us in, your are just playing with our life. Finally, students can see the real image of Australian govt. #Shame #letusback #ScottMorrison

This is Australia. So sad to see what this country has become. You’d think the feds might take her on and open the international border. Instead nothing from @ScottMorrisonMP and @JoshFrydenberg except words from the sidelines.

Instead of closing down early, maybe @VictoriaPolice & @DanielAndrewsMP can help the good people of @FoodbankVic find solutions?
Foodbank Victoria@FoodbankVic20 Aug 2021
We are so sorry. ​ ​The level of demand for our services was so overwhelming and traffic grew so large, reaching as far as the West Gate Bridge, we were advised by the Police that our drive-thru became an issue of public safety and we had to close up early. Stay safe everyone.
