Published August 4, 2021 If there’s one thing COVID-19 has exposed in our society, it’s that some people just have no idea what it’s like to be broke and struggling to get your pay through the week. NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian was answering questions in the daily presser today (which saw 233 new cases and 174 places exposure sites added to alert lists) when a journo asked why places like Bunnings or The Reject Shop are still open. “Obviously the lockdown rules we have in NSW are some of the harshest our nation has seen,” Gladys said. “We need people to remember every time they leave the house that they could have the virus or someone they come into contact with could have the virus.”
