Australia to Reduce Incoming Int. Passenger Capacity from July 2021

And this is #]*%|¥]#< disgusting. Why on earth do Australian TV shows need to import (so called) celebrities at this time? And why is the Australian Government handing out visas to these sorts of people. (In case you don’t want to follow the click bait link I’ve posted below, it describes British media personality Katie Hopkins and US celeb Caitlyn Jenner arriving in Sydney seemingly for the filming of Big Brother. )

Despicable.

They were probably both allowed in above the arrivals cap too.

This is going to blow up...it makes the Feds look really bad. I think there's a chance Hopkins visa could be cancelled.

TV production has been a thing throughout this. I can tell you that shipping in US TV production supported thousands of jobs in Victoria in May / June.

We have to keep the economy going. No good coming out of the pandemic with 20% unemployment. It pisses me off that Katie Hopkins is allowed in to earn lots of money and then behaves like that. However trash is trash and no point expecting anything better…..

I get this. But this is not an international TV show being produced in Australia, like the Zac Efron and Tom Hanks productions. This is an Australian TV show bringing in foreigners to be part of that. Not necessary IMHO. Not now.

They would have got the exemption to bring them in well before the current mess. I get where you are coming from - I would much rather see families reunited than another trashy reality show go ahead.

Rather than presenting it, they could just put Sonia Kruger in the house...not quite on Hopkins level but I'm sure she could tick some of fhe boxes!

Given that most Aussies wouldn't know her then she doesn't even qualify as a celebrity person for an Australian based show.

She's probably very popular among viewers of Skynews after dark.
 
Apparently Adam Hills was complaining yesterday that he won't see his kids much before Christmas - ah sorry - you have been back and forth to the UK about three times so don't complain about it. He said it's all about whether you can afford it or not and he said he had about 5 trips cancelled but every time he comes back and hotel quarantines he's taking away a spot that could have gone to someone desperately trying to get home

It's just words if he continues to fly over and back though, isn't it! Seems like the only thing stopping him isnt his moral compass about taking up precious places but his flights are being cancelled. Otherwise he'd be off again.

He's in the UK now and not sure when he's going to get home - zero sympathy here
 
The Guardian reports that 7 will cancel Hopkins' contract. Unfortunately also reported that this puts a hold on the Border Force investigation into the matter.
 
Woot. Just wrote an email to our top rating breakfast radio program saying I had to miss sons wedding in the UK on Saturday whilst the PM got to visit his long dead ancestors and then this toxic big brother thing, they read it out, in full, with great emphasis as a immediate prelude to their interview with Simon Birmingham and asked him to respond to it!!!!!
 
I wonder if they'll put that up on YouTube. I'd be interested to hear what his reply was.
