Anyone who is interested in their future,you need to know the past.
For anyone who does not know their past is doomed to repeat it.
research the financiers of the bolshevik revolution.

No variants are proven or have been isolated by any science!
Testing detects corona viruses ( which are all around us) it can not identify covid 19 or the common cold. so go figure.✌🏻

Gympie, Bundaberg, Fraser Coast home to growing number of Covid lockdown escapees The Wide Bay has become the place to be for a growing number of people fleeing Australia’s southern states, but the influx is causing headaches for those late to the party.

Kim Racovalis is one of the lucky ones. Just before COVID-19 plunged southern states into lockdowns, she’d already made the decision to pack up her Victorian family and head north. Reeling from a recent Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis an auto-immune disease escaped the bitter winter for a sunny Queensland holiday and soon settled here permanently.

The Racovalis family was at the front of a growing charge of Victorian and New South Wales residents fleeing the southern states with lockdown refugees now helping drive a Wide Bay property market surge agents across the region say are calling unprecedented Now living south of Gympie in a modern house set on an acreage, Mrs Racovalis said they could not be happier in their new home and are relieved they left when they did.

Not everyone has been able to secure a home. Fellow Victorian Lindee Bibby has experienced first-hand the struggles that come with getting into the local market. She has dreamt of moving to Queensland for the last nine years, dreading every Melbourne winter. But her determination to escape reached fever pitch when the pandemic hit.

“We have been watching our children suffer mentally because they’re not allowed at school, sport’s cancelled all the time,” she said. “My son, a motorbike enthusiast who races flat track, hasn’t raced for almost two years; seeing his mental health decline, we decided it was time.” The Bibby family currently lives in Warburton, 72km east of Melbourne. Despite having a population of 1600 people and zero Covid cases thus far, their town has been subject to off and on lockdowns since the start of 2020. “Looking at the Queensland map, Gympie stood out for us,” she said. “(One home) was just perfect, we had been looking for months and months, and so we rushed up here to view it, and on our way up here we got a call from the agent to say it was under offer.”

Then, disaster struck when the New South Wales and Queensland border closed, leaving the family stranded at Tweed Heads for months. Two days before the border reopened the agent to say the sale had fallen through and the house was back on the market. As of this weekend, the Bibbys had put an offer in and were hoping to sell their house in Melbourne and secure a border pass. Gympie Century 21 owner Billy Mitchell said interest from New South Wales and Victorians accounted for about 15 per cent of the region’s market – a figure he said might not sound like much but added to a market already inundated with southeast Queensland interest, it made for intense competition.

Mr Mitchell said it was the strongest he’d seen the local market in his decade in the industry. “Our weather plays a big part in it, and out affordability plays a big part in it,” Mr Mitchell said. While it might not be good news for buyers, it’s a seller’s market. One Southside property expected to snag about $500,000 wound up selling for $540,000, almost 10 per cent higher. “It’s important for sellers at the moment not to put a limit on their expectations,” he said. “A lot of the properties are going in to multiple offers.”

RealWay Bundaberg Principal Brent Illingworth the market at the northern tip of the Wide Bay was “very, very tight”, especially for rentals. He said while restrictions in New South Wales and Victoria were currently preventing people from moving to Bundaberg in the physical sense, it was not hindering investment in the region. “The extreme shortage has pushed prices up across the board,” he said. “I think the biggest thing southerners are moving here is the lifestyle.

“During Covid you couldn’t go anywhere so people were travelling locally, and Queensland is a big state, but we found a lot of people travelling stayed here and bought a house, it’s fascinating. “A lot of the people who can’t get here are buying investment wise; we’re getting up to a dozen phone calls a day from people who have been told Bundy is the place to buy. “Three bedroom homes getting $300 a week is a great return. In Bundy return percentages five to eight per cent are very achievable, much better than banks.” The competition is making it particularly hard for local buyers to get into a market where cashed up southerners selling higher-value homes in the city and prepared to bay big money in the Wide Bay. Mr Illingworth said local buyers needed to be prepared “now more than ever” and should speak to their bank and have their pre-approval letters ready to go before they started searching.

“Often, at the moment, properties don’t go to a second open house,” he said. “It’s not good enough not to come ready to buy.”

The Government crap is little concern around these parts, this mass exodus to the region is the real problem in our face at the moment. Locals trying to buy or rent are being pushed out of the market, to the point many families are becoming homeless.

Covid may not be such a problem in QLD, but the repercussions are being experienced in a different way, though potentially on a bigger of scale.

Might be big news in Sydney in the next few days

1 of grandkids is a close contact as of Friday, a couple of neighbours kids have been notified that their children are close contacts , all from school last week

Is there another outbreak the week after school holidays finished

Could this affect freedoms

Well yes , both my daughter's have to isolate for 2 weeks, my wife was there yesterday, she is a casual contact , if she tests positive tomorrow I'm a close contact and back into a quarantine at home

What was the point in getting vaccinated in the first place , today 4 out the 10 who died were double vaxed in NSW

Freedom day was a illusion, in reality we will be locked down harder with leaving the house a crime , well at least for the next 2 weeks if all goes to shit

This shit they're imposing on businesses to separate vaxxed from un-vaxxed won't last long at all. As those businesses that haven't already gone under, they'll need to try and recoup lost profits due to closures on every sale that comes their way. let alone the potential blow ups in store from various shithead customers that want their point heard. It's a police order that no business can maintain. As they're there to serve customers, not police them on their vax history.

Cocksuckers the lot of them (politicians)..

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time." - Abraham Lincoln.

It would seem modern politicians had overlooked some observations from those who came before them.
