Fair enough. This report is interpreted like the blind men and the elephant, or to put in more modern terminology: from the personal agenda of the person reading it.

The cherry picking is rife by all sides. Morrison is doing it. Gladys is doing it. Albo and others in Labor are doing it. As Mike Bowers said on Sunday on Insiders about the Premiers: We all signed up to the plan ... and will do what we want to because we can. Or something similar. There are lots of unfinished sentences being said with fingers and toes crossed behind backs to cover up the misleading nature of what is being said.

Doherty likely did what they were asked to do by the Morrison Government. Other modellers have done things without the request because they are researchers and do this as their work. They are pointing out problems with this model in the real world and for making policy. They are doing it politely and less likely with an agenda other than public health.

Now Josh is threatening withholding money if the Premiers don't do what they are told to do **by the Morrison Government's interpretation of Doherty**. Sorry but that's just going to piss people off as their businesses continue to collapse, the sick leave usage blows out due to continued covid sickness and infection, and families lose their 'low interest rates' new houses. How they manage to hold an election in this climate just shows how 'not smart' they are. Changing the narrative won't help because the lived experience will come through in trumps. (no pun intended; it's a card game reference)
