I presume Richie Barrett told them he doesn't want Hotels and Pubs or Aviation to be back until Zero Covid, so we'll be on the Covid Coin until the New Year in his ideal world.

Strange comment from the Shinners - could be read 2 ways?

Govt must finally put in place sector specific Covid supports for the taxi industry.

Taxi drivers have been severely hit by Covid, with most not seeing a days work for 15 months. If action is not taken, there will be significantly less taxis on our roads.

There's some video in that Twitter link as well.



P.S. Why are the 'unions' so obsessed with getting rid of the Taxi Advisory Council?  Are the per diems not enough?  It seems to be a new thing for them.
