Calling to account those who tore her down
The executives who negotiated a deal for post offices to handle banking for their local communities made a significant contribution to the livelihoods of those outlets. Well done. But should they get a bonus for doing their jobs? Do intensive care nurses get bonuses for saving lives? Or rubbish collectors get one for doing a job that makes a difference to everyone in their local municipalities? Or workers who support people in aged care?
Itâs time to send returning travellers away from cities

Many experts and most people think itâs time for returning travellers to be redirected to unpopulated areas for quarantine (ââCity on high alertââ, December 19-20). Leakage from quarantine in Victoria cost many lives and billions of dollars. And thereâs little doubt that the current outbreak in Sydney will ruin Christmas for far more people than those who want to return to Australia for the holidays. Surely the Prime Minister and the premiers should call time on quarantining in major population centres. Any cost benefit analysis will prove that decision as being correct.
