Australian Senator threatens Australians "Lock, Stock & Barrel"

What's happened to our politicians?

Who do they think they are speaking to when making these types of threats? Do they think a "pandemic response" justifies throwing out all of the values that define this nation?

Why are our leaders obsessed with excluding Australians from society for making a choice in a supposedly free & democratic country offering its citizens the ability to make decisions about lifestyle and health based on individual risk?

Just for some perspective in Denmark a country comparable to Australia in terms of living standards, the government dropped all restrictions and mandates after reaching its vaccination goals, there is no burden being put on people that do not want to participate.

Why are we going full authoritarian?
