We have never needed to trust our Government more than right now.

We have never had a Government we trust less.

Today I speak to a young Woman in Iran about her experience of trying to find out the truth about Coronavirus from social media and word of mouth because even if the Government was telling the truth, they've learned not to trust them. The parallels with what I see happening here is palpable.

Australians aren't trusting this Government, and the flow of rumours, conspiracy theories, and a mixture of truth, is creating a level of confusion we've never had in this country before.

Has the lack of transparency from the Morrison Government destroyed the trust that is necessary for any national response to this crisis?
