President Donald Trump wrapped up a series of campaign rallies in swing states on Saturday, blasting his Democratic opponent Joe Biden as a corrupt politician and creature of Washington while painting himself as a political outsider. Trump repeated the argument from his successful 2016 campaign when voters responded to the unorthodox candidate by handing him the White House. He did three rallies in three critical background states - North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin - kicking off a final 10 days of campaigning that will feature a jam-packed schedule headed into November 3.  'We can't take any chances. We have to win,' Trump told his supporters in Waukesha, Wisconsin, in his final rally of the day. 'Can you imagine losing to this guy?' he said of Biden, calling for a 'thundering' defeat of his Democratic rival at the ballot box while blasting the opposition party as 'anti-American.'

As midnight struck across the long-suffering city, the shackles of Premier Daniel Andrews' restrictions were thrown off - at least a little. Two adults from one household can now visit each other's homes accompanied by any children, reuniting families and best mates at long last. Pubs, restaurants and cafes are free to open once again, after being closed, and later restricted to takeaway, and many going to the brink of ruin as a result.  New York-style steakhouse Angus & Bon - on the famous Chapel St - was one of the first venues to welcome guests inside after midnight Owner Liam Ganley instructed staff to pop wine corks and confetti guns when the clock stuck midnight, signalling the easing of restrictions Nick & Nora's bar on Collins Street also reopened at midnight and was serving up cocktails with masked waitresses
