Covid Australia live update: snap Victoria lockdown announced by Dan Andrews; Morrison flags streamlined financial support payments; 65 NSW cases

Whether it’s five-sevenths of the $600 and the 375, which I would have thought would be a pretty fair thing, if it is a five-day lockdown instead of a seven-day lockdown.

I tell you what I’m not going to do though, because I’m not averse to sending messages to people via the media, not just Victorians but some that are up a bit further north. I’m not going to say, right we’re locking down for seven days, two full days extra, which is more than the health advice tells me I need to, in order to qualify for a commonwealth program when all they ever tell us is that every dollar they spend is based on need. Well, need starts hour one of day one of a lockdown.
