Mr Elliott said under no conditions could people lie on the beach.
“These (rules) aren’t here because the government wants to punish anybody and police like enforcing these laws,” he said.
“They are there because if you are static, if you are just sitting in an area, you’re more likely to spend a period of time near people.
NSW Police Minister David Elliott
For all those hippies who always carry on about ‘the public’ owning things:
“The councils, they are the owners of these parks and recreational spaces,” he said on Sunrise.
Where are all the anti-fascists?
What a tosser !
He then has lunch supplied by the hands of thousands, as the workers around him interact, and he talks into a microphone………….
This is not quarantining, so therefore it has nothing to do with a virus.
I danced with a lot of women over the years, it rarely, very rarely led to fornication, wish it did.
They do not own them, the public does, though taxes and rates that they have paid.
It did very occasionally; back in my salad days.
I think your man Elliot has ratified the Peter Principle.
Elliot. Rhymes with idiot. Is this a coincidence or something more sinister?
Well that’s some relief then.
For quite a while, they had me fooled; thinking that it was just about those very things.
Elliott is a first order pinhead. I wish someone would ask him about Polair flying all around Sydney last night and the night before seeking out rule breakers. The cops FLIR camera must be quite effective.
I did want to call Elliott a bald-headed flog. But I didn’t want to offend any follicularly-challenged folks here.
Appreciated RD…
Who votes for councils? Oh yes, the owners.
I believe the constitutional position is that the councils are departments of state government.
Both the Police Minister and the Police Commissioner in NSW are terrible at their job and need to go.
haw haw, porice man sirry Erriott
The lucky governments are the ones that will face their electorates before the “rally around the flag” sentiment is replaced with a healthy dose pissed-offedness about dickhead enforcement of arbitrary rules.
What a deadset flog.
Imagine trying to pull this shit in the 1980s
We have regressed as a society…to some degree we are not only worse off but are moving away from what a society is and may be, for better or worse.
Not just less attractive cloth, but fabric with many holes.
And to think we used to believe in the common ‘good’, private property and private enterprise.
