if this isnt the most hypocritical think i ever read. last week they wanted the premiers head and for him to resign but now they are calling on victorians to drive the numbers down so they can get what they want and this is the restrictions back to be lifted here in victoria

While I agree with you, Iâll play the devilâs advocate card and suggest the Sunday Herald Sun could sometimes decide to take a different stance/editorial direction than the Herald Sun.
This happens in the U.K. with The Sunday Times recently becoming a bit more âliberalâ compared to its âparentâ paper

Also the front page said âwe stand cut off from the rest of Australiaâ. Thatâs incorrect, freight is still getting through, we can still communicate with interstate people via electronic means.

Yep, itâs a funny historic relic if you ask me that the Sunday papers are unique from and separate to the weekday edition. Iâve noticed during previous elections when the weekday edition of the Hun/Tele/CM go particularly hard, usually against the Labor party, the Sunday paper is a bit more measured in its tone

Surely all Victorians want the restrictions lifted? Are you @JasonF saying that you like the restrictions and closures? If so, why?
Further to last weekâs tweet by Jessica Clement (news editor for News Corpâs national community network) that her company is recruiting 15 reporters to staff 15 digital mastheads throughout regional NSW and Victoria, The Australian is reporting that its parent company is planning to launch more than 50 digital-only mastheads, with the first 15 to be up and running by the end of September.
Of the first 15 titles, eight will be in Victoria, five in NSW and two in South Australia. All but one of the 15 titles will be in regional areas, including Albury-Wodonga, Ballarat, Bendigo, Gippsland, Latrobe Valley, Mildura, Shepparton, Dubbo, Hawkesbury, Port Macquarie, Orange, Tamworth, Clare Valley and Port Lincoln.
EDIT:
you have taken what i said way out of proportion and have misread what i said
News Corp has decided to close the Brisbane printing plant and concentrate its South East Queensland printing at the Yandina facility.
News Corp said the Yandina facility had newer presses with heat-set printing capability. It will print The Courier Mail for audiences in central Queensland, Wide Bay, the Sunshine Coast, as well as its Queensland country and Brisbane metropolitan editions. It will also publish the Queensland, Coffs Harbour, Grafton and Lismore editions of The Daily Telegraph, as well as The Australian and The Sunday Mail.

Yep! I am stupid but not for that reason alone. 
Mind you, it is for work, and I do claim it back on tax though.

Most children are out of control these days.
Half the problem is that their stupid fucking parents buy them smart phones in year 7. I believe they should be treated in the same way porno movies are sold - restricted to over 18s, and any parents dumb enough to buy their kids a phone should be castrated and sterilized.
And for teachers to have every right to remove them and smash them on sight.
