1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,600 Speaker 1: It is just ten minutes away from ten o'clock. And 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,279 Speaker 1: joining me on the line right now is the independent 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 1: member for god A Kezier Puric. Good morning Kezier, Hey, 4 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: good morning Katy Kezier. How are you going? Are you? 5 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: Are you in well caught up in this situation at 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: the moment, Yes, I am. 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 2: Katie and everyone else who attended the Middle and Cup 8 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 2: days at mid of Mark Hub because of the lying 9 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 2: woman from Melbourne. I was a good five girl and 10 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 2: we got to check yesterday in the morning saying come 11 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 2: in contact with a close contact. And thought that can't 12 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,840 Speaker 2: be right because I knew about the mid Mark server 13 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 2: being across a place of interest, so I rang them 14 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 2: to check and I said, look, it's not on the 15 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 2: government's website. I'll checked there too. I own toney Nescy Own. 16 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 2: I said, Tony, have you heard anything? And he said 17 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: yoln and he's the owner of the business. But the 18 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 2: lady on the government COVID line did say that there's 19 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 2: possibly is a delay and it'd be up there soon. 20 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: And she said there's two locations this in me in 21 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: my cabin and the Humpty Hub. And I went, god, ye, hell, 22 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: you have all days no updates. But there's a couple 23 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: there's a couple of things. You know, the chief manage 24 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 2: to come out and trying to name and show of 25 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: business that is just outrageous. You know, when did you 26 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 2: get off doing that? I was there and all my 27 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 2: mates are there and lots a lot of people. I know, 28 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: there's no way there was three hundred and fifty people there, 29 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: you know, I know how that place can hold. And 30 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 2: I've seen here on other Melbourne Cup days and I 31 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: put a guess at it about two hundred and fifty 32 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 2: two hundred and eighty. So you know, if he's trying 33 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 2: to scare among the people, well at the extent of 34 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 2: someone else, and particularly a business which is going through 35 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: tough times anyway, I mean, that's just shameful, you know. 36 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: And it goes goes to this show again that he's 37 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: not a leader's replace. So that's for sure. That pub 38 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 2: is a good pub. It's got a long history. It's 39 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: got a long history. I mean, I know when it 40 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 2: can bring a kid Tony his family is very hard 41 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: in that business to provide lots of entertainment, you know, 42 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: to lots of people over the years. 43 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: Well, Keys here we caught up with tiny just a 44 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: short time ago, and he obviously he'd said that he 45 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: coppted it on the chane obviously that you know that 46 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: they could have been doing more to make sure that 47 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: people were checking in. I still think that we all 48 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: need a bit of personal responsibility when it comes to 49 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: checking in, because the reality is, like you know, even 50 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: at your sporting events and community events, not everyone's got 51 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: a volunteer or got somebody there to make sure that 52 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: absolutely every person's checking in, like we should be doing 53 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: it ourselves. 54 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: It is tough, but I agree that we all have 55 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 2: to take some responsibility. I mean, we take responsibility for 56 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: our pin number, for our cards and make sure that 57 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: that's kept well hidden in our brain somewhere. But clearly 58 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 2: obviously with myself and my friend he will checked in 59 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 2: because that's why we've got a text. And I woke 60 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:32,959 Speaker 2: to a couple of other people on me there and 61 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: I no, no, I think I forgot. I think we'll 62 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: get on the COVID line now, And they did. Yeah, 63 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 2: I agree with turning. I've been to I've been to 64 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: many businesses and so though the stats are probably one 65 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 2: of the main ones I don't worry about. I've got 66 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: the piece of paper there and if I haven't got 67 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: my posing, just starting to put my name in. But 68 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: I think you're right that there has to be some 69 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: kind of education program that goes out across the business 70 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: community and in other places, you know, technical football matches. 71 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: Make sure that people do do the right things for 72 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: as long. 73 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: As you have to do it. 74 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 2: So when this kind of thing happens, I mean adding 75 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: up the Ludamarte tub attendant pub plus the hunt to 76 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 2: Do pub attendant plus wherever else this woman went. You know, 77 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: that could have been just a rite of cases across 78 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 2: the top end, and they would have been varied those dads. 79 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 2: So I think there has to be a reinforcement of 80 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 2: that message. If you don't have this def con with you, 81 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: please find the piece of paper. Some businesses are deadly, 82 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 2: like I know one business in Whene. You can get 83 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 2: tools and all tools and they will not let you 84 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: come into the shop unless you check in. Now, that's 85 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: obviously a corporate position and good for them, so but 86 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: not everyone's like that, and I think that's where some 87 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 2: extra work needs to be done. And the other thing, Katie, 88 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: I think we need to seriously look at the penalty 89 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: for this kind of person like the Wa experience should 90 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: be looked at very carefully and plas you need should 91 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: copy that. With those two b stuck up the day 92 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: to go to the football match, they got chucked straight 93 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 2: in the slammer and didn't get any bail until they 94 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,279 Speaker 2: went to court. Now this woman's. 95 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: Pleasy, Do you reckon? That's what we should be doing here. 96 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:01,839 Speaker 2: Do you reckon? 97 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: We need to go a step further than just the 98 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: five thousand dollar fine or whatever's been flagged and actually 99 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: make her do some jail time. 100 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 2: Yes I do, I mean crew months whatever. I don't 101 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: know what they did in Wa, but I'm going to 102 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: be riding to their tenant and not asking the government 103 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: to look at it because we're going to be with 104 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: this pandemic for quite a while and if there's one 105 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: person like this lying woman, there'll be another person, man 106 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 2: or woman. Now, she had the potential to infect the 107 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: whole community across Darwin and the rural area, bring great 108 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: strength and hurts not only the individuals but to businesses, 109 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 2: the government resources. Like when I went to the testing 110 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 2: station at Marva, I mean there were dozens of people 111 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: who are doing what they have to do. They've all 112 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: got to be recruited. They've all got to be employed. 113 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 2: But the cost of the community from her actions should 114 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 2: be added up and then that should be weighed upon 115 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: her and then possibly looking at jail time. Yes, and 116 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 2: I've had great comments on my Facebook and elsewhere talking 117 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: to people and they agree, they are horrified that, you know, 118 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 2: she blatantly lies. And I don't know whether she knew 119 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: where she's interested or not, but as soon as she 120 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: started to see you know, well she would have known. 121 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: You know, you just can't go out of deliberately and 122 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 2: maliciously set out to potentially harm communities. There has to 123 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: be a strongness you sent to people like that here 124 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 2: in the churchy and elsewhere. 125 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: Well.
