Premiers ‘loved’ COVID borders, says Aussie music star John Williamson

Australian singer songwriter John Williamson believes state premiers "loved" having borders during the COVID-19 lockdown.
Mr Williamson joined Sky News Australia host Chris Kenny to discuss his new tour and life since the COVID-19 pandemic which brought the world of music to a halt.
“It was very hard on us I think,” Mr Williamson said.
“It seemed to me the premiers loved the idea cause it’s almost like they all had to be their own countries.
“I’m very much in for no borders really.”

    I lost so much for not getting the vaccine. My job at the hospital and I have been struggling since. I’m not single mom I have two sons both autistic I did feel pressured to get it but I know I couldn’t. So as I continue to have financial hardships I know I made the right choice.

    For decades and decades there have been many occupations / industries / careers which have required MANDATORY and up to date vaccinations. For example, many industries require mandatory Tetanus vaccinations etc. Talk to anyone in the defence forces and learn how many mandatory vaccinations they have, especially if serving overseas. None of this is new. There are risks to ALL vaccines and medicines and it’s fair to say that the vast majority of responsible Aussies stood up to be counted with their vaccinations. You made a conscious decision to reject it and now you’re dealing with the consequences. The vast and overwhelming majority of Aussies chose to stand up and be counted and are now moving forward with happy and productive lives. Perhaps you need to consider that you made the wrong choice.

    State borders do not exist. There are only political boundaries. The States agreed to give up their borders when they came together in one indissoluble Commonwealth in 1900, with the border 200 miles off the coastline. You all got conned during covid.

    The Australian states are weird. Before 1901 they direct colonies of the UK and were 96% like an independent nation. Tach colony had its own Border Force, Navy, Army and border controls. Here in SA it is very well known to travel from Murray Bridge to Mildura by boat or from Adelaide to Melbourne by the Overland train you needed a valid passport and visa and have the border force raid the boat oir train on the SA/VIC border and check such documents. Henry Parks in 1891 wanted this gone but the colonies kept on getting in the way and by 1901 we got an Australian Constitution and Federation which was just "fumes" when compared to his 1891 draft Australian Constitution and Federation.
