THE Gold Coast s top cop has hit back at dishonest locals claiming they are stranded and unsafe due to border blocks at smaller crossings, saying police cannot accommodate every whim. It comes as Mudgeeraba resident Keith Douglas slammed a hard closure to Numinbah at Nerang-Murwillumbah Rd, claiming emergency vehicles could not pass and it was being unmanned by police. Once-Gold Coast Council candidate Keith Douglas with his bull Rambo. Picture: supplied. The same closure was in place in March. Mr Douglas said: Enough is enough. This is one of many problems affecting Gold Coast farmers. This barrier has been lying on the side of the road for weeks so clearly there was anticipation by the government that it may need to be used.

GOLD Coast coronavirus testing clinics are so overstretched sick people are fainting in the heat, being turned away or giving up after waiting six hours or more, residents claim. Currumbin resident Virginia Boniface waited from about 9am-4.30pm to be tested at Robina Hospital in searing heat on Tuesday after interacting with Sydney travellers. She applauded staff who did their best in trying times, but said testing needed fine tuning . None of us knew it would be that long, she said. There was a few who fainted, older people. I am quite sunburnt, but it could have been a lot worse. There was a pharmacy nearby so we ended up with a litre of sunblock. I actually had an umbrella in the car and we bought some Gatorade because we were just so dehydrated.
