Gladys Berejiklian, who became premier of New South Wales in 2017, had fronted the media on an almost daily basis to announce COVID-19 infection rates

This morning.

Via Reuters:

The premier of Australia’s biggest state economy New South Wales (NSW), Gladys Berejiklian, resigned on Friday after a corruption watchdog said it was investigating whether she was involved in conduct that “constituted or involved a breach of public trust”.

Berejiklian said the issues being investigated were “historical matters” but she felt compelled to resign because of the long time frames likely to be involved in the investigation. She also said the state needed certainty over its leadership amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“I state categorically I have always acted with the highest level of integrity” she said at a news conference.

Berejiklian, who became premier in 2017, had fronted the media on an almost daily basis to announce COVID-19 infection rates, deaths and restrictions on businesses, schools and households as the state battles an outbreak of the Delta variant that began in June.

    ANOTHER sex scandal? Couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the police starting to switch sides on the mandatory vaccination issue?

    What’s with all the NSW stories, Bodger?

    Is there a relative down under sending them in during the night?

    It’s also now 10:01 AM YESTERDAY in NSW. Old news. Nobody cares.

        It’s okay! Your antivaxx leaders, O’Flaherty and Heasman, staged a protest at the Aussie embassy the other day.

        That’ll show ’em.

      Australia is the epicenter of the struggle for the survival of Western Democracy, Free Lunch.
      If the current attempts to destroy it succeed, everyone, bar a handful of fanatic woke fascists & their Elite sponsors will suffer horrendously.
      The Fake Pandemic is just one of a multitude of attacks on our civilization but, right now, it’s the single most important one. Australia is being used as an experiment the results of which will determine the progress of The Fourth Reich, sorry, Industrial Revolution.

          Thanks for the link, was wondering what would happen to Clive Palmer after making those serious allegations. He was on the ball, making perfect sense in that imitable Aussi direct way.

      “Loose”, eh? Can’t control that neo-fascist instinct to lock people up, can you, Dolly?
