Comments by "John Woodrow" (@johnwoodrow8769) on "Morrison 'key driver' in advising Berejiklian to impose 'harsher lockdown'" video.

What on earth makes Andrew Clennell think he's running NSW. This is taking activist journalism to a whole new level. Andrew, if you want to run the place stand at the next state election.

@macca2342 Are you suggesting Andrew sprouting his opinion is 'actual journalism'?? Clearly we have a different understanding of what the role of a journalist is. His job should to ask questions to seek out FACTS. His opinion on whether a 'faster or harder' lockdown would have made a significant difference is neither a question or a fact.

@macca2342 Yes, I would have liked the FACTS regarding the poor handling of the Victorian quarantine debacle to have been reported. Something that still hasn't happened. The notion that a multi-million dollar contract was given to a bunch of sleaze bag criminals, and the decision to do that just happened all by itself is an insult to someone's intelligence. That the media can't get to the bottom of it, or doesn't want to more likely, is again a reflection on the poor standard of media in this country. Your completely missing the point of my original comment, COMPLETELY! It's got NOTHING to do with what Scott Morrison discussed with Gladys. Couldn't care less what advice he may have given her, its good she does discuss these important matters with other people. The issue is Andrew Clennell DEMANDING more restrictions be imposed. In that regard he is the same as many of the media class, and not one of them will loose a cent from the thing they are demanding. Making out they speak for 'society'. They do NO such thing. I only see one person engaged in partisan politics .... You!

@_chillblaine He wasn't asking a question. He was trying to force his OPINION on Gladys (and grandstand for the cameras) and present it as a matter of fact. All I hear on the media at the moment is its a 'fact' a quicker harder lock-down would have made a massive difference and brought the virus under control. That ISN'T a fact. If people actually took the time to inform themselves about how the virus spread initially out to SW Sydney and then expanded, they would realize that when Kerry Chant said a harder initial lock-down would have made no difference she was probably correct. It went via true 'essential workers' into their families, and from there into their extended families. You will NEVER stop certain families dropping around to visit each other. NEVER! It all has NOTHING to do with hand bag or candle shops being open or closed.

@macca2342 Just keep pushing your crass political agenda. That's ALL you are doing. P.S. And listen my stupid friend. I think Gladys should have been given the punt long ago, especially over her role with the corrupt boyfriend. You see, there are still a few objective people left in the world, not many, and YOU certainly aren't one of them.
