SYDNEY, July 29 (Reuters) - Australia's military will help enforce a lockdown in Sydney after the city of 6 million posted a record daily rise in COVID-19 cases on Thursday and state authorities said the outbreak was likely to get worse.
The lockdown of Australia's biggest city has increased pressure on Prime Minister Scott Morrison, who is now trailing in opinion polls, and heightened concern that Australia's A$2 trillion ($1.5 trillion) economy could slide into recession.

Canada as well.
They’re going full on Nazi.
Our future if the powers that be have their way.
As if the Constitution and such ever made any difference to the left.
“Shoot straight you bastards, don’t make a mess of it!”
And the Liberal Party of Australia Prime Minister Scott Morrison is the “Conservative” party.
239 “cases” only? In all of the Sydney area? Is that enough to overwhelm the hospital system in Sydney?
Burning bodies everywhere being shuffled around by people wielding pitchforks
That won’t slow Mealy Mouth Miley down 30 seconds. He will release the troops on red states with brute force.
>>That is why we have the Posse Comitatus Act.<<
Yes, RR and Waco. The government has militarized local law enforcement. Under Obozo, they transferred surplus military equipment to LE agencies across the nation.

And under BOTH Bushes. This isn’t just the democrats trying to kill us. Both parties want a bunch of mindless sheep as slaves.
They are bringing in their equivalent of our National Guard to compel obedience.
