Millions have been left separated from loved ones over Christmas after states slammed their borders shut
Shut downs were imposed on Sunday after NSW reported just 30 new covid cases with all of them linked
New South Wales did not decide to close its border to Victoria until the state recorded 127 new local cases
Premier Gladys Berejiklian said leaders have lost their nerve and clearly do not trust their tracing systems
Ms Berejiklian will hold a crisis cabinet meeting on Wednesday to decide on Christmas Day restrictions
The premier said the government will take a cautious but balanced approach when deciding new measures
