    Best to do it remotely or wait until after the lockdown though, wouldn't want you bogging down medical resources.
    LOL! You’ve replied to some of my posts and I’ve since replied to some of your posts. That fits the definition of “obsession” does it?? I don’t think so. Unless you happen to be Scarlett Johansen, I think the chances of anyone becoming obsessed with you are extremely remote, so I think you’re very safe on that front. And thanks for the concern about my wellbeing but I’m all good; still working full time, still doing my bit to minimise the spread of the virus, and still using commonsense if any conflicting information comes about ��

    here is a snippet from stuffeds headline article this morning , bear in mind it sounds really bad like this because its out of context but i think there needs to be some transparency about how quickly these new powers will be relinquished

    " New Zealand has become a police state for at least four weeks. Police Commissioner Mike Bush has routinely said people can expect to see the "friendly face" of the police, but behind the soft messages is a hard power.

    Officers can now enter your home without a warrant to look for gatherings. There's the power to detain, seemingly indefinitely, if you continue to leave the house without good reason."

    and this

    "One would hope that the police take a very softly-softly approach, particularly in the first instance, because the stakes are quite high for police here ... Unreasonably heavy handed approaches by police, you know, could affect the public sense of trust and confidence."

    But justice advocate Julia Whaipooti was not reassured. She said, though the enforcement of the lockdown was needed, there was concern about a heavy-handed approach, particularly for communities such as Māori that don't have "high trust" relationships with police.

    maori are not the only community that has trust issues with the police as we all know lets just hope cool heads are in control of any situation as it could all go sideways....
    just to clarify i am sticking to the lockdown rules and dont advocate anyone push the boundaries or the police for that matter... the snippets i have put up can be taken out of context so the whole article should be read (these two paragraphs just stood out to me as joe public getting a taste of what LFAOs have been dealing with for the last year)

    The place this virus is coming in from are through airports and we are still letting planes in. Should have been the first thing we put in lockdown
