Victoria .. is set to surpass a world record nobody wants to claim — for being the most locked-down city in the world.

If lockdown ends as planned on October 26, Melbourne will have been stuck at home for 267 days, nearly nine months out of a period of 18 months.

That’s far in front of Argentinian capital Buenos Aires, which was stuck in lockdown for 257.

Not sure about it being a record 'nobody wants' - Dan Andrews wants it - you can see from the way he does these Fidel Castro-length press conferences every day that he relishes it.
