South Australia Premier Steven Marshall said maintaining the strict border measures meant easing restrictions on local businesses quicker. “I promise you we can create thousands more jobs in South Australia by keeping our borders closed at the moment,” said Marshall. @AnnastaciaMP has defended her decision to keep Queensland borders closed, despite a push from the tourism industry for restrictions to be eased.
