		<description><![CDATA[Ok, so help me understand this, she refused to have safekey, no one is sick but because she did not do what a tyrannical Government said, she deserves it.   This only shows safekey is not doing anything.  Just control.  Not about a virus.    They are taking your liberties.   Soon, you will own nothing, and be happy.  Until it affects you, but will it be too late?   Come on people, now you can&#039;t go work without a test are not sick!  This is just wrong.  Don&#039;t come work unless tested, next it will be don&#039;t come work unless vaccinated.  But people are dying from the vaccine.     They are saying it is unvaccinated but we know it is the vaccinated.  They are getting sick!   Well I applaud you Karen!   Don&#039;t worry about what they say!   Please continue to stand for right!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Karen did very clearly say she was not going to implement the safe key protocol from the beginning - and this is the consequence. How is this shut down a surprise to you then? Regardless of what other gyms are doing, or not doing, I don&#039;t recall them bringing that attention to themselves. Whether you agree or not, Government have set the rules, and if people want to work out, they will  adapt, get vaccinated and have a safe key OR provide regular test results - that&#039;s the choice. That&#039;s the new world.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing makes sense but just follow government orders that go against freedoms. SafeKey is slave key. A war against something that nobody can see.. Wear a face mask while walking around gym but not while working out. Wear a face mask while walking in a restaurant but not while sitting down, has everyone gone mental in government and the police force. Why do some people think they have a right to control other peoples lives?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hello Magnum,

We, the gyms customers, are wondering what we are supposed to do for these 2 weeks? Because of your mouth we are now gymless for 2 weeks. Will you be crediting us or have another gym for us to go to?

Regards,

Irritated Customer]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Aug 23 - Bernews article - Ms Hodgkins said she avoided having people cancel because she told her staff it will be “business as usual” and they would be ignoring the SafeKey policy.

Objecting to government policy is to be expected but outright defiance has consequences.  

Given the recent instance of Covid positives and deaths, what do gyms recommend that is acceptable and within the government Covid guidelines?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well Karen didn&#039;t really do herself any favours by her last appearance and statement on how she was going to run her gym...

Besides that, the Premier owes the gyms time to hear them out. They&#039;ve been one of the most impacted. The gov has heard and listened to the restaurants. Why not gyms? When payroll tax time rolls around and social insurance weekly, I&#039;m sure gov will be waiting with their hand out for payment!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Stop the poor me game Karen, rules were not adhered to so you suffer the consequences.  Your staff should have made sure all rules were bing followed.
Also from mid Aug till now the upper management of Gov’t has had a lot to deal with.  Maybe you should approach a back bencher and give them something to do]]></description>
