There's been quite a lull lately, not since the 6th of Jan has there been anyone stating the obvious before the cameras. They could be wisening up, but Daniel Andrews spoiled it by making one to-day - the pressure of the daily Covid talk perhaps?

It's unfortunate that it happens, we don't need to be told what we already know. If I was to say: "Covid exists in Australia and we need to get rid of it" ... other posters would say: "No kidding, where did you hear that?, tell us another one we don't know"

You see, I stated the obvious, doesn't go down too well, the brain needs to be engaged to avoid ridicule

Gladys avoided ridicule the other week before making a certain statement, she used the prefix: "To use a generic term," ... then rattled off the statement. Good for you Gladys

BS
People are always stating the obvious in front of cameras. I really don't understand why you have such an issue about it and why your obsession with this has lasted almost 2 years.

Are you really expecting that Scott Morrison wouldn't say that the rape was awful?
He has spent $190,000 pf taxpayers money on an empathy coach, of course he was going to say that it is awful

The Right Wing only believe in free speech when they agree with what is being said.

I expect male leaders to man-up and not be children, but be grown adults

All of us know it's awful. It also seems to be predatory, more than once apparently this has happened

Taking the soft approach and just saying it's "awful" demeans the seriousness of the allegation

What is "awful", almost criminal, is the state of mind they project as a means to protect their "clique". The Public can be fooled when the same type of condescending language is used time after time

Rape is a very serious crime, it's not just "awful", it's criminal, and the rhetoric in the aftermath of the allegations should reflect that

Gladys Berejiklian

(NSW Premier)

"Those numbers are too high. We need to get those numbers down,"

(Re: Corona virus cases in NSW 7th July 2021)

PS Perhaps stricter rules and testing for international flight crews and passengers would go a long way to keep the numbers down, and to make sure a 4th Covid wave is avoided

When politicians understand that just one infected crew or passenger can spread the virus, and spread it quickly, then they might figure out that the State won't be safe from Covid until they establish the most likely way Covid will begin to spread

The buck stops with the dumb politicians
