    @BenGrahamReborm; when authorities behave as they did toward goldminers during the Gold Rushes, as they did by imposing conscription in 1939 and in 1964, when they vilify whistle-blowers for exposing war crimes, when they censor news about what's being done for over five years to asylum seekers, when authorities break great big PROMISES made to the Australian People as they did in 2013 and when authorities are caught out lying-cheating-rorting and covering up as they have been since mid 2019 everyone should question 'authority'.

    Hopefully what is now the tragedy of the Ruby Princess debacle is cleared up and we're given the full story about why between them that the Federal Government, State Government and port authorities collectively FAILED to keep Australians safe and secure:

    "Serious gaps in federal rules allowed Ruby Princess virus ship to dock"
    "... Federal Department of Health rules meant to prevent disembarking cruise ships spreading coronavirus contained serious holes, according to biosecurity experts who say the guidelines are too focused on individual passengers rather than the overall risk of transmission. …"
    "... The NSW government argues it followed the guidelines before allowing the 2700 passengers on board the Ruby Princess to disembark on March 19. More than 600 passengers have since tested positive, and seven have died. …"
    "... Raina MacIntyre, head of the biosecurity program at UNSW's Kirby Institute, told The Sun-Herald the federal Health Department protocols should have been "more flexible or broad". …"
    "... Last week the federal health department issued updated advice on how to handle incoming cruise ships, although there is also a temporary ban in place. Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt and the department did not respond to questions before deadline. …"
