#ScottyFomMarketing seems to be applying the #trickledown approach to communication about #COVID19au as well. Because #trickledowneconomics has worked so well.. #auspol #coronavirusaustralia

#ScottyFromMarketing has a new slogan “saving lives and saving livelihoods”. He seems far more concerned with saving livelihoods than lives 😡 “Every job is essential!” #coronavirusaustralia #auspol

Why does @ScottMorrisonMP keep insisting that any type of #lockdownau measures would have to be in place for 6 months? Where else internationally have we seen this? #COVID19au #auspol

NZ closing schools and going into lockdown. Hope Australia is next!? 🙏🏻#ShutAustraliaDown #Covid_19australia #auspol

New Zealand is providing clarity on their plan of action when things escalate. @ScottMorrisonMP where is our plan? Feels like policy on that fly at the moment and the confusion and uncertainty from mixed gov messaging isn’t helping #COVID2019AU #auspol

'Unprecedented': Britain will pay up to 80 per cent of worker wages during coronavirus crisis. @ScottMorrisonMP what is Australia doing? #auspol smh.com.au/world/europe/unpr…

How can restaurants and cafes stay open and viable under new #SocialDistancing rules introduced by @ScottMorrisonMP of 4sqm per person in an enclosed space #auspol #COVID2019AU

Replying to @ScoMo30
@ScottMorrisonMP saying the risk isn’t going on the plane, but then Chief Medical Officer recommends 4sqm per person and not gathering in groups >20. Mixed messages much!? #COVID2019AU #auspol

Chief medical officer advising against >20 people in a room. Suggests #SocialDistancingNow How does this work at schools?! #CloseTheSchoolsNow #COVID2019AU
Reserve Bank cuts rates to record low 0.25 % in emergency #covid19 action. Now #fiscalstimulus measures needed to support #Australia through coming months. #coronavirusaustralia #auspol smh.com.au/politics/federal/…
#ScottyFomMarketing inaction forces Tasmania to act alone and effectively close borders to mainland Australia. We need to act now, and #Lockdownaustralia to #FlattenTheCurve otherwise we will be the next Italy. #covid19australia theguardian.com/australia-ne…

The flattened curve we are all hoping for will not actually be flat. It is more likely to be a series of ascents and descents, So all of us need prepare for a bumpy ride. #covid19australia #SocialDistancingNow #Lockdownaustralia nyti.ms/33nKvIC
