Today, Sept 2nd, a Northern NSW company made a delivery to Brisbane in their Semi. The M1 is open for freight & special exemptions, some essential workers etc only. No blockade. I witnessed a staff member ring their driver to ask if there were any closures, no trucks blocking anything on the M1 between the border & Brisbane.
Google maps shows the north bound lane closed for about 7km, its not really lying, anyone not hauling freight or with a special exemption regardless of jab status cant enter QLD.
No idea whats happening elsewhere at this stage.
I’ve read a few different posts saying the truckies had their demands met, they don’t have to have the vaccination to keep driving internationally apparently. I was surprised I heard NOTHING about the 31st one in the media or on social media at all. It’s like after that dude in Brisbane got a bit of news in the morning on the 30th, Pauline Hanson got him to move along and everywhere went quiet about the 31st which was supposed to be the big day.
Something weird about how it has played out, my suspicion is they don’t want people knowing the demands were met because it could cause others to try similar tactics
Telegram is not blocked in Australia. they could do media blackout, but if things were happening, social media would have tons of vids.
