Feel your pain
Fuck me. I'm denied exemption to be with mum while she is passing away from WA gov. Then locked up 2 weeks quarantine while it happened. Yet AFL players can get an exemption to go to uncles funeral. Again, what the ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY. 7news.com.au/sport/afl/st-k…
This is an absolute abomination. This is fucked. This is heartbreak. This is double standards. This is so intensely messed up.
Anyone looked inside their Australian passport lately? Looks like a crock of shit to me! No assistance, no protection. Absolute joke of a country. Send us all a new passport with this shit removed! @strandedaussies @ParentsFamily @removethecaps #Australia #auspoI #AuspolSoCorrupt
Final count was 50 bunches of flowers (+ 4 turned away) The last 2 weeks in this cesspit of a hotel has been insane torture, so every time I was really upset I would read your cards. Thank you for understanding. Thank you for the support @ParentsFamily @strandedaussies @DenHeten
Before I left Belgium I did a test so June 13-neg June 17-neg June 19-neg June 22-neg June 28-neg June 29-neg June 30-neg July 3- Hoping for a flight & have 12 hours to get from HQ to Perth or I have to go in self quarantine again. What the actual fuck is wrong with this country?
Geez what does fresh air feel like? Would love some. The dusty carpets & lack of a window is not good for anyone's health. It is like a cesspit in here, no wonder people get sick in quarantine. It is a breeding ground for nasties. No wonder people catch covid in HQ. It is rank
I'm happy for Mark Killian, I'm happy for Anna Coffey. Anna can drive to see her dad. My drive to WA was deemed too far. Now I am still sitting in HQ freaking out if I can even get to WA. I have 12 hours from when I leave HQ to get to WA or 14 more days HQ & a funeral exemption?
Lucky girl!
Lucky guy
Well said @Joe_Hildebrand. The blame game never stops. These silly politicians deflect all responsibility. No compassion, no heart, no empathy. I don't know how the bureaucratic red tape brigade sleep at night. I'm definitely not getting much sleep in here!

Happy for you Mark! #flowersforchange
I feel your pain Anna!
Even more came in! Thank you so much @ParentsFamily. Hey @MarkMcGowanMP @ScottMorrisonMP @JamesMerlinoMP How about a bit of compassion for your own citizens. Your state run exemption system is not working. Seems like only you guys and the celebs get them. Sort it out
More flowers came in! Very overwhelming! Thank you, thank you, thank you! @ParentsFamily @jackpayn
Heartbreaking to hear James Turbitt (@turbitt_james) describe the moment he said goodbye to his dying mum via video call while he's stuck in hotel quarantine - he'd raced home from Belgium, but was denied entry to Western Australia. @BBCWorld
Thank you very, very much! Each and every one of you. I am so happy to receive these today. Something nicer to look at instead of the black wall outside my window. Looking forward to leaving this place! @ParentsFamily
Breaking: Many, including myself and our group @ParentsFamily have organised flowers and cards for @James_Turbitt to express our sympathy for his situation. I have just been made aware that a member was being prevented of delivering the flowers
Australia is one of the world's Covid-19 success stories, with less than 1000 deaths. Borders closed last March - & they've stayed shut. It's undoubtedly saved many lives, but it's also had devastating consequences. Speaking to @VFritzNews about @James_Turbitt's case on @BBCWorld
