Stuck in Australia

[Australian Government @ausgov]

From Monday 21 February 2022, Australia will reopen to all fully vaccinated visa holders, welcoming the return of tourists, business travellers, and other visitors. Further updates to come in due course. https://t.co/YivzzLbovP

Finally reunited with family after Australia shut the borders 🥰

752 days since seeing my family… worth the wait!

The Australian open giving Djokovic an exemption, him flying to Australia, being held in the airport for 10 hours then having his visa cancelled and being sent home is the greatest thing to ever happen.

Hats off to all, a combined trolling effort from a lot of parties.

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

There are 1000s of people - fully vaccinated - who haven’t been able to get to see family members and loved ones in Australia because of travel restrictions still in place. But someone who refuses the vaccine is granted an exemption. Odd messaging. #Djokovic

This is what you should read.

HOW MANY SHOTS WILL WE NEED TO GET?

[Laura Jayes @ljayes]

Fewer people in hospital today in NSW. 2 fewer than yesterday.

Infections have doubled. A sign people are living.

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

And still Bridging Visas are forgotten. @ScottMorrisonMP SORT IT OUT. Bridging visa holders have been in Australia during the pandemic and contributed to the economy etc. Why are they not allowed to be reunited with their families overseas and then return?! #bridgingvisas

@MarkBOReilly @ScottMorrisonMP @Dom_Perrottet @karenandrewsmp @AusBorderForce @ausgov Thank you! Not sure anyone acknowledges it but it makes me feel better haha

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

Hey @ScottMorrisonMP hope you're having a lovely Sunday with the family. Just a friendly reminder to remember those of us on Bridging Visas who would love to see our families too! @Dom_Perrottet @karenandrewsmp @AusBorderForce @ausgov #bridgingvisas #australianborders #scomo

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

@ScottMorrisonMP @Dom_Perrottet hope you’re both having great weekends with the family! As ‘family men’ please remember that people on Bridging visas have families too and we would love to know when we can see them! Please let us travel. Thanks✌🏽#australianborders #bridgingvisa

[Jody Acheson @jody_acheson]

Hello would love to see family for Xmas, been over 2 years!
@ScottMorrisonMP @ausgov @karenandrewsmp @AusBorderForce

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

Happy Friday @ScottMorrisonMP - hope you have a lovely weekend with your family… I would love one of those too so if you wouldn’t mind allowing Briding Visa holders to travel when borders open that would be awesome. Thanks 😊 #australianborders #bridgingvisa #scomo #covid19

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

Happy Thursday @ScottMorrisonMP - just a friendly reminder to remember Bridging Visa holders when you reopen the borders on the 15th of December. It would be greatly appreciated as I would LOVE to see my family after 704 days and counting! #australianborders #bridgingvisa #scomo

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

Good morning @ScottMorrisonMP - please can I make a polite suggestion. When you lift the pause on travel for visa holders on the 15th Dec that you remember to include Bridging Visa holders too? We would love to see our families. #australianborders #reunitefamilies #scomo

[Jessica Acheson @Jessicaacheson]

And so it continues…

Australia is pausing its reopening to students, skilled migrants and refugees citing #Omicron

@ScottMorrisonMP As of March 2021 350,000 people are on Bridging Visas in Australia. I would imagine this has increased to the current date. PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE US. Let us travel and see our families. 700 days and counting and it is too long. #wehavefamiliestoo #australianborders
