All Covid has proven, why do we need a federal parliament. Their 2 biggest tasks at the moment are hotel quarantine and the vaccine rollout. Failing miserably and the states and territories are doing all the heavy lifting.
Scomo sitting on his hands again
Its the employees that are stood down without pay that the government need to help. My daughter will not have a full weeks pay, she’s single has tent and bills to pay. Just like thousands hit hard by this overreacting government this time
About time Labor put their hands into their coffers, what have they done with the billions given by the Federal government.
I’m done with this clown.
What's scumo got to do with this? Piss that wet blanket out of here
A band aid solution to a gross miss management
Scomo needs to stop treating Victorians like shit! Australia is a federation of 6 different states and 2 territories, not only NSW!

Amazing how $250m can be pulled out of thin air!
Can you feel the Panic in the Air by the globalist and potential Lawsuit
Vic gov not enough support your workers you locked us up without any plan again
Take the money back from those who have profited from these support measures

So you put a photo of Scotty to make out he has done this. Cool story Costello! Hand the account back to the social media team now!
