    It's not the first time he's been caught out for not using protection.

    This made me a bit nervous about my absent minded moments walking into Woolies before realising and reaching for my mask.

    Perhaps only a character like him would be dobbed in for the 30 seconds he spent paying for fuel instead of just being reminded to mask up.

    Do you think he will appeal and "get off" again ?

    A few high profile examples will (hopefully) get everyone else falling into line

    Was at the supermarket this morn and every adult I saw was masked up. Junior says she saw three without masks, but that everyone else was glaring at them :)

    The ABC is on a mission to throw whatever mud they can on ole Barny.
    They've ran out of unsubstansiated and fake accusations as click bait and now they get a chance to go after Barny.
    It's gonna be funny to watch them be all triggered on TV

    There's nothing to like about Barnaby on either a personal or political level. Still remember him defending the sanctity of marriage by vociferously opposing same-sex one so 'his daughter's could get married' only to personally debase that same 'sanctity' not long after.

    There's more than a few in the LNP who really don't want to deal with him again. A look what happened under his nose as water minister makes for some revolting reading.

    He's also supposed to represent the farmers - but he's ignoring their needs and wants in favour of a dying fossil industry ... can't stand the guy

    At the moment they're on a mission to throw mud at everyone in the Government , Quarantine and Vaccine roll out .
    Lead story on their app last night was about someone who had clots from covid . They are highlighting the negative and then wonder why people are confused .
    Very disappointed

    This is what I posted on Facebook yesterday. Got a few laughs.

    Edit: Same juvenile humour as @geoffw, it seems!

    That is all they ever do now anyway.

    Remember when the news often was good news, and bit of the off stuff...

    Now, it is as much dirt and doom as you can get, Journalism is pretty much dead, it is more akin with social media....

    There are 2, or 3 things here...

    Politicians are human...

    Politicians should be able to fight for one view whilst holding a very different one. i.e fighting for marriage while knowing own is over.

    Today, most people do not like anyone they hear spews fourth anything they do not want to hear or has an opposing view of, clearly not everyone hates him......

    I think it's taught at school. I remember clearly several arguments with eldest daughter.

    Her: Screaming at the top of her voice "YOU'RE NOT LISTENING"
    Me: Calmly "I heard every word you said. There's a difference between not listening & not agreeing"
    Her: "I HATE YOU" Runs of to bedroom & slams door.

    Oh yeah, I know the not listening thing...lol.....vs not agreeing.

    Not agreeing to everything some say brings this bratty behavior even into the 60's with some !

    I've found just the pub for you as of yesterday...in your former home state Lol.

    But seriously its nice to see some normality returning to Qld. This new CHO is getting a lot of things right IMHO.

    It took some fiddling to be able to see what the point of interest of the photo was.
