Episode description

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has highlighted NSW’s role in seeding the outbreak that’s led to Victoria’s current lockdown and many Melburnians have expressed anger at Sydney for not containing the outbreak.

 

We’re joined by the much-loved Melbourne musician Rebecca Barnard who is furious because the local music industry was just starting to find its feet again.   Raffael Epstein from ABC Melbourne says the argy bargy between the two cities is a snapshot of our overall frustration.  We all want someone to blame.

 

How much did Sydney’s Covid strategy contribute to Melbourne’s fifth lockdown chaos.
