Welcome to the Cory Talks Podcast! On this brand-new episode… COVID-19 restrictions in Victoria to be eased from 11:59 tonight (Thursday 10 June 2021). I’ve got a round up of those details for you in this edition. The statement from acting Victorian Premier James Merlino and full list of changes are available at https://coronavirus.vic.gov.au While Victoria tries to get this more virulent variant under control, Prime Minister Scott Morrison urged the state to follow New South Wales’ lead in ending lockdown as soon as possible. I know this must sound like a joke to some of you, but the PM was serious. Why the blame game in coronavirus doesn’t help. Changes to Australia’s health system, Medicare has many doctors concerned. Claiming election fraud seems to be as catching as COVID-19. The almost decade long struggle for two Sri Lankan Tamil asylum seekers and their Australian born children is heartbreaking to hear about. On In Focus today, the story of Priya and Nades, and their children Kopika and Tharunicaa. They’re better known as the Biloela Family – named after the Queensland town they settled in when seeking asylum from persecution, only to find more of it in Australia thanks to the Morrison government. https://www.change.org/p/scott-morrison-bring-priya-back-to-biloela It’s important that nations around the world know the plight of The Biloela Family as 3 year old Tharunicaa suffers in hospital after being airlifted from their detention on Christmas Island to Perth due to pneumonia and possible septicaemia.
