Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk became teary on Friday while defending her state border closure to reporters after Federal Finance Minister Cormann said her policies were “entirely political” and “so cold-hearted and so harsh and so nasty.”
The Queensland premier said: “These are difficult decisions and they’re heartbreaking. I’m human, just like everyone else. These issues hurt me deeply. They hurt me deeply because, during this pandemic, I’ve lost loved ones as well.”
