    Surely they can't lock the Mainland down? Nothing going on down here except a bit of hunting and shooting.

    Level 3 closes public hunting land. If anyone think the whole country wont be at Level 3, if not 4, after midnight tomorrow is naive. You have 28.6 hours to hit the public land!

    Half of Auckland got on planes and travelled to Queenstown in the past 36 hours.

    The South Island should go back to level one tomorrow, my seven year old is going to nuts if he can’t play rugby Saturday And it will be canned again under level 2. At least we might still be able to go out for a whitebait.

    North Island can lock down
    Mainland can cut the cable and watch you all drift away with not a light bulb glowing

    Sadly I have to agree, I continue to hope for the best. Its gutting that the "team of 5 million" did as asked (scared in to compliance) and all was undone by our bungling burecratic masters. They would it seems struggle to get laid in a brothel even if they were all drunk!!

    Wife’s been told to get homepacks ready to give out to the kids. Double check that they’ve all got the facilities at home ready for homeschooling again.
    Although they’re probably being proactive rather than reactive. Better to have and not need, rather than needing and not having.

    Where's the sense in that and where does personal responsibility start?
    And, more importantly, where does the conspiracy theory end and simply listening to a very simple message such as "If you feel sick, get tested" begin, especia;l;ly given that the same message has been re run every day since day one. Very silly blame game when its a politicians fault a dickhead took nearly a week of illness to get tested.
    The problem is we cannot rely on the people to do what is right.
    We pay taxes so that the law is upheld and what needs to be done is done, these COL fools have failed to isolate an isolated country.
    How hard can it be to isolate every person entering the country?

    I could do it with a couple good guys with tasers, well trained dogs and a big stick...
    Use enough gun

    Yep fly them all in to Ohakea and bus them up to Waiouru. They can then escape all they want but bet they come back pretty quick.

    Good news, I just read this statement from the Game animal council. Tear into it until level 4 comes again.

    Important change to Alert Level 3 rules

    We have been advised that for any regions at Alert Level 3 you can now hunt on both private and public conservation land. You do need to stay within your region and stick to your bubble. Overnight trips are still not allowed and you may only hunt on foot — using quad bikes, off-road bikes, helicopters and other motorised vehicles is not allowed.

    Level 2 rules remain the same.

    Up-to-date information on current alert levels is available at: https://covid19.govt.nz/covid-19/current-alert-level/

    I'm not making any observation on the current situation, but your final sentence toook me back to the Waikato vs 'Boks match in 1981. The protestors invaded the field, and ultimately the match was called off. It was reported at the time that a SA cop had observed that he didn't see the pitch invasion as a major obstacle, and it wasn't anything he couldn't have cleared with half a dozen cops and some dogs. No idea if it was correct or not, but it was reported here.

    I think they can get fucked this time around , if it happens again. We gave them 6 weeks earlier this year at the beat time of the year and what did they do ?
    They made a joke of the sacrifices We made with bungling and incompetence beyond comprehension. The government has shown me they can’t control it so why bother complying with more petty bullshit. I won’t be.
