In Australia, Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews isn’t happy with those who violate the state’s COVID-19 restrictions by watching the sunset on Rye Beach. “I’m sure it was a beautiful sunset,” he said. “But that’s not in the spirit or in the letter of these rules. We need people to follow the rules and genuinely stay at home means stay at home. It’s not about looking for every loophole, every exemption, every blind corner where people can’t see you to do the wrong thing.”
