Irish couple set to be deported after arriving in Australia unvaccinated, without exemption

  1. Australia are known for having strict border control and Covid rules. It would have taken five minutes to Google what the entry requirements were 🤦‍♀️

  2. It said they werent aware they needed to be vaccinated.

    Something tells me they didnt read the visa requirement for tourist ?

    or

    Just ignored it

    Australian has the strictest boarder control

  3. Perth of all places! They’ve been the strictest region in the whole country!

    I’m very surprised their family didn’t tell them about the requirements. I could give a bit of leeway and say that older people (and they’re not *that* old) might not be as savvy at keeping up with the requirements and didn’t realise there was no more quarantine, but I couldn’t see no one in the family being aware of the situation. I personally know two fellas living in Perth who have been watching the changing rules like hawks to see when they’ll get home. Surely these were the same about their family coming over?

  4. So, instead of checking to see what the requirements were to enter another country, they didn’t, and got turned away. Seems pretty cut and dry. Get home, get vaxxed, and try again maybe?

  5. Idiots. Why in the hell would you do that. Next time wire us the money and we’ll send you some plane food and movies so you can sit up in a chair for 60 hours at home.

  6. > Mrs Ryan-Murphy said she and her husband were unaware of the requirement before their 19-hour flight.

    jfc, how hard is it to google?

  7. I don’t know why people are stressing that should’ve known about all the rules, they’re unvaccinated, they don’t give a shit about other lives.

  8. >Mrs Ryan-Murphy said she and her husband were unaware of the requirement before their 19-hour flight.

    It’s as if the Department of Foreign Affairs don’t exist and do not provide accurate and comprehensive travel advice to citizens of Ireland.

  9. I am sick of reading articles about people doing stupid shit on purpose and then playing the victim, constant barrage of “man found 200k in bank account and spent it now he’s bankrupt”

    It’s like just give over and stop fucking about.

  10. What a couple of dopes. Thousands on flights to Australia and 24 hours on a plane just to get turned round and sent home. Fucking morons.

  11. Australia has one of the toughest border controls in the world in place, like really did they think they’d just get to waltz in.
