    BREAKING: Victoria and NSW will push for a lockdown of non-essential activities, including businesses. No going to restaurants, no going to pubs. Victoria will also push for schools to be shut from Tuesday. If not agreed by National Cabinet tonight, Victoria will go it alone.

    Those thinking yesterday's vaccination of the PM and CMO Kelly had a last-minute feel to it are right: it was meant to be tomorrow (Tuesday) at 8.30am at the pop-up COVID clinic opposite Canberra Hospital, alongside Anthony Albanese, Mark Butler and Peta Murphy ... Curious, huh?

    Here's the PM on March 15, four days before Ruby Princess docked, saying cruise ships would be put "directly under the command of the Australian Border Force"...

    Price signals to discourage students from courses that curate great thinkers, problem solvers, diplomats and intelligence officers? Literature, philosophy, creative arts... they nurture and nourish society. Looks very much like a chequebook culture war, to this Arts/Law grad.

    An @AusBorderForce official mistook common flu tests for COVID-19 tests for cruise ship passengers aboard the #RubyPrincess, allowing 3,000 people to disembark despite hundreds of them having #COVID19Aus. #abc730 @andrewprobyn #auspol

    Apparently I’m making trouble for the PM in Sydney today. Funny, I haven’t left Canberra, 283km away. Here’s thinking they’ve got the wrong Andrew. Over to you, Mr Clennell. ⁦@aclennell⁩

    It's not too late to cash in your franking credits, buy a negatively-geared childcare centre positioned neatly on a flood plain with pumped irrigation rights. #AusVotes19

    Something has gone terribly wrong when Australian universities are allowed to become so heavily reliant on overseas students.
