Incredible. #wollongong has been subject to “Greater Sydney” lockdown but Gong residents won’t be eligible for “test and isolate” payments.
Workers have been waiting days for test results without pay, doing what NSW Govt asked of them but not good enough to get NSW Govt support.

- You are either an MP or a lobbyist - you cannot be both. MP’s shouldn’t be collecting commissions from property developers on the side. This behaviour should have been reported by the Premier, not applauded by her.Having said that, nowhere was working for a developer or as a lobbyist ever done by an MP to my knowledge ever. It's just absurd. Most second jobs were working as a GP (Andrew McDonald) or barrister one day a week (Adam Searle)
- Spent some time supporting the fantastic @KKeneally on pre-poll with @pruecar - Bennelong voters were backing Kristina too.
- 6000 demountable classrooms in NSW schools and the Berejiklian Government prioritises a $2 billion splurge on Sydney stadiums. #schoolsbeforestadiums dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw/tempo…
- If you think being part of this protest was right - you’re wrong. If you think it helps your friends and family - you’re wrong. If you think it helps get #wollongong out of lockdown - you’re wrong. If you think it helps health workers dealing with the pandemic - you’re wrong.Anti-lockdown protest in Wollongong ift.tt/3i1185F
- So there has been conversations with the NSW Government before the Victorians closed their border - so why did the NSW Premier claim otherwise today?
- An appeal to the ppl who attended the protest in #wollongong yesterday - get tested today. Your actions have created considerable community concern for no community benefit. The least you can do now is help calm local anxiety. So do everyone a favour and get tested today.
- As we start the week over 60,000 small businesses are still waiting for financial support from the NSW Government. Many have not been trading for 7 weeks. The Premier's best spin cannot hide the fact that this is a failure from the alleged party of small business. #nswpol
- With lockdown extended in #wollongong I'm again asking @Wollongong_City to help people exercise safely of an evening by lighting up some suburban playing fields like many Sydney councils have done. It's a simple way Council can support residents in lockdown.
- With the Illawarra recording more than 100 cases today surely that's signal enough to the Berejiklian Government that its time to top up our vaccine allocation & get the #wollongong mass vaccination centre up to full capacity, not the one third level its been working at for weeks
- From the so-called party of small business 👇 Many businesses in #wollongong are worried they might not last to see any small business support describing trading conditions as worse than at the height of last year's lockdown..@Dom_Perrottet tells @BenFordham new support for small business in NSW will be ready "within a week." #nswcovid
- Constance is rewriting history by claiming no bids from Aussie firms to build the New Intercity Fleet. There was a bid to build them in Unanderra creating around 600 jobs in #wollongong - this lost local jobs opportunity was raised many times during my 2016 by-election campaign
- This morning nearly 50,000 small businesses are still waiting on support applications worth more than $540M to be assessed. We are 60 days into the lockdown. Seriously. How much longer are businesses going to have to wait. #wollongong #nswpol
