Assuming it was a man… Could have been a woman. They might not have been the person who released it to the public.

I’d be surprised if anyone wanted to go to their wedding, if they’re even still together long enough. What they’ve done is outrageous, dangerous, and totally inexcusable. How the couple will ever clear their conscience is beyond me, and how their friends could forgive them is just as bewildering.

They’ll forever be remembered as that couple who had the reckless engagement party in a pandemic lockdown that put so many lives at risk.

Yes, the acts of a few (although 69 is a large number, and you’d think that at least the older people in attendance would have been more responsible) let all of us down. What was particularly abhorrent was hearing the audio of the video – the young man so flagrantly and carelessly joking about the illegality of what they were doing, the others laughing and adding to it.

Do those involved have no imagination for the possible dire consequences of their actions or capacity to consider the heavy workload they’ve now ensured health workers must engage in? Time to move away from self and inculcate some seriousness. Time to learn.

I wonder if the bloke who took the mobile phone footage at the engagement party will get invited to the wedding after he released it to the public?

How irresponsible are all these partying people. Premiers talk about a “ring of steel” on our state borders but we may need an “iron curtain” to descend in parts of Glen Eira and Port Phillip to contain lawbreaking folks so they don’t infect other local law abiding citizens like me in a nearby suburb.

By blocking out their faces you are protecting these disgusting individuals.

Why are you protecting them?

ANY organization that accepts them as members is condoning their behaviour-including shuls and other groups… such as the mikvah (HA HA).

I am ashamed to be Jewish that such alleged leaders of our community chose to disregard the health of others and the laws of Australia with such contempt.
