ANALYSIS: Andrews facing a storm cloud of rage — but other leaders can't avoid the heat

It has sometimes been easy to miss NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian in the storm cloud of rage that has surrounded Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews in the past few weeks.

But Berejiklian's pragmatic repeated warnings over the past couple of weeks provide something of a reference point against which to judge the firestorm of controversy and name calling that has been going on in Victoria.WatchIt has sometimes been easy to miss NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian in the storm cloud of rage that has surrounded Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews in the past few weeks.

Berejiklian has stressed how easy it can be for NSW to suddenly find itself in the world of pain being experienced south of border. That is not to say, in any way, that politicians should not be accountable for what's happening. Just that there are actually more important issues to deal with just now than "will you apologise" and "do you accept personal responsibility".

2700 potentially infected is a lot of people and they don't know who they are , mammoth job .

It appears Morrison & his front bench can. And have made a habit of it.

😂😂😂

From whom? Where is this storm cloud of rage? Didn’t you see the results of the Herald Sun’s poll? That’s the one they took down when the result was overwhelmingly in favour of the Premier.

Journos or is it Jerkos need to hang for their behaviour, esp those 2 hecklers ...... we know who you are ...... pawn pieces, or is it porn pieces for Murdoch? Never know these days.

'The storm cloud of rage,' whipped up by Murdoch's hacks & propagandists including the ever increasing number working at the ABC (Speers, Norman, Sales etc) The same biased media that will ensure Fed & State LNP govts do not experience the same storm cloud of rage they deserve,

When does the Abc just admit they are owned by Murdoch

Imo, Laura is usually fair-handed. The click-bait headline doesn't really indicate the tenor of the analysis in the article.

“Storm cloud of rage”? From whom? Chris Kenny, Andrew Bolt, Miranda Divine, Adam Creighton, Alan Jones, Steve Price, Tim Smith & Tim Wilson? What a joke. MurdochMinions making lots of noise while the majority of Victorians support Dan Andrews auspol

🐂💩!

An uncharacteristically poorly written article by Laura. ABC's low level of journalism is why we watch news sources from 16 other countries in our household. Often Australia is 2-3 weeks behind with Covid19 news. I know there's been budget cuts but this is disappointing.

ABC you are just like The Costello Chronicle, they too think that a lie often enough repeated becomes reality.

No he isn’t. IStandWithDan also IstandwithDan and istandwithDan but most importantly istandwithdan

latingle Absolute rubbish. DanielAndrewsMP is receiving a deluge of Murdoch & LNP driven attacks. No other politician is receiving anything like that. I can’t believe the depths has sunk to. NewsCorpse murdochracy RIPABC IStandWithDan PMAndrews

Ummmm. Is this a story about NSW dressed up with a misleading headline to get Victorians to read it? Thanks but no thanks for the Sydney news Sydney views.

Bullshit.

Sydneysiders won't make a big deal about RubyPrincess and won't take it out on Gladdie while they're still allowed out and about

A storm of rage - really?

Ahem! You haven’t seen the Heralds polling result then! The only rage I’ve seen are these totally impotent RWNJs from the Murdochcracy blowing their pooper valves!

The difference is the rage directed at Andrews has been confected by our partisan media (and the LNP). If Berejiklian happened to be Labor, the Murdoch attack dogs would have been at her throat from day one. Everyone knows it. Australia has been bought and sold.

JFC, bad enough that we have to put up with a cavalcade of newscorpse flunkies inhabiting the ABC now you're getting them to write your headlines.

Our media, particularly the corporate media, has taken on a role the LNP's willing minion... And the ABC, is largely following their cues... The only ones outraged are those seeking to assassinate a competent leader in a critical time for politics and profit.

Srsly?!!

I’ve had a deep interest in Politics since the age of 8 and through my employment, sat at the pointy end of Fed Politics for over 30 years, so at 59 yrs old I feel qualified to say that DanielAndrewsMP is about the only one actually doing his job at the moment. auspol AlboMP

Laura, working for Sales now - get thee behind me, cloud of rage - boom boom, I'm tingling!!

What crappola re Andrews.. Drama

When the far right theheraldsun called on their followers to show how much they agreed with the condemnation of DanielAndrewsMP the media is desperately promoting, this is the result they got. It’s a very imperfect science, but this seems to reflect what 137,000 people think.

No he's bloody not. Who from? The only people viciously attacking Dan are Murdoch scum & the Libs & some other feral media. The only person facing a 'storm cloud of rage' is fucking Morriscum. 😡😡😡😡

A storm of rage for Andrews 😳 Gosh Then it must be a tsunami of rage for Morrison on the Aged care disaster then ? And Gladys for Ruby Princess ? An avalanche of rage 🤔🙄

I’ve yet to meet a single person irl who is even mildly angry with Andrews or McGowan.

LNPABC 😡 Coalition have been given the longest piece of string in this Little or no criticism Fawning approval of Schmo & Co Reluctant retelling of the conclusions of the Aged Care Commissioner Frenzied rush to repeatedly criticise Dan Andrews LNPABC - NewsCorpse subsidiary

Even the Herald Sun's own poll shows he is still popular...

Narrator: No storm clouds forecast 🌞

DanielAndrewsMP is facing a hostile media. That’s his challenge. There’s no public uprising. There’s a few members of the community questioning his leadership. But there’s an absolutely tone deaf media steadily destroying their already putrid reputation. YOU ARE NOT THE NEWS!

Firestorm? Yeah nah latingle This is a complete media confection.

Confected bullshit from the ABC 🙄

Did Laura Tingle read the Herald Scums opinion poll this week the wrong way?

Seem to be so far...

simmey88_lucas The most informative part of this article is that Morrison has been grounding journos against Andrews. Where else in the world will you find a national leader working to undermine a state leader except in USA.

This federal gov has shown that it can’t face its responsibility and that aren’t able to do the job the states pay it to do. I think they should be disbanded. In a bushfire and a pandemic it has been shown the fed gov is irrelevant and is more of a hindrance then a help.

Firstly, it’s past tense. “Faced”, and only from the media and Liberal numpties. Dan has 68% support from Victorians. Second, Glad is about to face her moment in the shade when the Ruby Princess report is out. This is not journalism. It’s Liberal Government spin.

What a load of shit ABC, get rid of the LNP crime family hacks.

uneducated people and media will give a hard time as they are idiots to realize the limitation of a pandemic situation ..this is not a normal situation guys..stop being morons and just fight together.

Coronavirus updates LIVE: Active Victorian cases drop for first time in two months; NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian warns of harsher restrictionsThe number of active coronavirus cases in Victoria fell for the first time in two months, and NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has warned of harsher restrictions if she doesn't see more people in masks. At last! But I suppose one shouldn’t speak to soon. They're NOT daily by the way. The number of cases could be several days tests, aggregated together. Don't forget it takes 2-5 days, sometimes longer , to get test results back. Lobotomized people think this is irrelevant. They also think the elderly have never died of old age. Possibly lessons now re-learned from 100 years ago. Go early and go hard on lockdowns. NZ best case in point.

Andrews is 'avoiding parliamentary scrutiny' | Sky News AustraliaThe Andrews government is avoiding parliamentary scrutiny over its bungled response to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to state Liberal MP Richard Riordan.\n\nMr Andrews was questioned about his government’s handling of hotel quarantine when he fronted the Parliament's Public Accounts and Estimates Committee this week.\n\nThe parliamentary inquiry coincides with the judicial COVID-19 Hotel Quarantine Inquiry, which is headed up by Jennifer Coate.\n\nVictoria has 7,842 active cases, the most in Australia, with one in five cases in metropolitan Melbourne coming from an unknown source.\n\nThe hotel quarantine regime is alleged to have sparked Victoria's second wave of coronavirus cases which has killed 275 people across the state to date. \n\nMr Riordan told Sky News it 'isn't good enough' the Premier has not fronted to serious sustained questioning from members of the Victorian parliament.\n\nImage: Getty DanLiedPeopleDied Andrews needs to resign.

Andrews is facing ‘karma’ for his hubris earlier in the year | Sky News AustraliaSky News contributor Gemma Tognini says the scrutiny Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is facing is appropriate considering his arrogance towards COVID-19 and the media earlier this year.\n\n“His hubris and his arrogance earlier in the year around Victoria’s management with COVID was outstanding,” Ms Tognini told Sky News host Chris Kenny.\n\n“The way that he treated anyone in the media who questioned him during that time was really unbecoming of a leader during a crisis.\n\n“You could look at it as plain and simple karma, which is a little bit trite, but really the level of questioning that he is being subjected to right now is incredibly appropriate.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia GemmaTognini GemmaTognini GemmaTognini is right. GemmaTognini Gemma you have no idea. So sad the bias.
