One of Melbourne’s largest hospitals would be able to complete an additional 7500 surgeries each year under an election pledge announced by Premier Daniel Andrews on Sunday.

Andrews told reporters on Sunday morning that designs for the upgrades would be released next year. Construction is slated to begin in 2025. A seven-storey tower would be built on top of the medical service’s recently expanded emergency department in Clayton.

DanielAndrewsMP Didn’t Andrews sign a deal with Moderna to make millions of poison jabs at Monash?

DanielAndrewsMP You are not a Christian DictatorDan and certainly not a Catholic you are so hypocritical and full of shit I’m surprised you are still white

DanielAndrewsMP Just don't dial 000 in the meantime.

DanielAndrewsMP Doeshe also promise another 10,000 hospital beds…don’t hold your breath.

OpatStephen DanielAndrewsMP So many promises of shiny new hospitals all around Melbourne being built by both parties pre-election but adequately staffing the ones we have now would solve more problems.

DanielAndrewsMP Talks more shit than scomo.

DanielAndrewsMP Why not address the root of the problem instead of throwing money at solving symptoms? 🤔 Hint: It’s lifestyle related. BTW DanielAndrewsMP Hatred is not holding views against abortion or homosexual behaviour. In fact some may say that’s love. If you love, you will them good.

DanielAndrewsMP Lost my vote I followed you and stood up for you for the last 2 or so years but no more .

DanielAndrewsMP Bullshit, more lies! Still waiting for the $1.3 billion pledged for health during a health crisis. How can’t you not hold hold him to account for losing this amount of tax payers money? And locking us up as a result! SpringSt RememberInNovember SackDanAndrews CookVersusCrook

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP If I was a Victorian surgeon I would be looking around for helpers. But then again they may have included ingrown toe nails and cataract removals. Thus no need to panic.

DanielAndrewsMP StopHazaraGeoncide

DanielAndrewsMP Stop Hazara Genocide

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Bullshit.

DanielAndrewsMP DanielAndrewsMP discovers there is a health system in Victoria.

DanielAndrewsMP AndrewsMustGo He's had most of the last decade to get it right and he's made it worse.

DanielAndrewsMP Nah, it won't happen. You already proved yourself with ICU beds and the way you let the health system crumble. What sort of person allows a 92 year old to wait 22 hours in a tent outside a hospital. You are a faliure

DanielAndrewsMP Bit late for more promises that you will break don't you think Comrade Dan?

DanielAndrewsMP Many wish he would simply pledge to resign!!! Along with you lot.... fake news media 🤣

DanielAndrewsMP Yeah sure. Just like the 4000 ICU beds that never materialised from federal taxpayers' funds. The money went into Andrews' coffers & mysteriously vanished.

DanielAndrewsMP Liar.

DanielAndrewsMP Sure… but we all know his “pledges” are rubbish.

DanielAndrewsMP More lies

DanielAndrewsMP DictatorDan broke the health system, put the boots into it and is now “pledging” funds, guess all his other “promises” about health that never happened got forgotten by his lap dog media lackeys 🤔 CookVersusCrook SackDanAndrews DanAndrewsMustGo DanAndrewsCrimes

DanielAndrewsMP He’s been promising since 2014 that he would fix the health care system .

DanielAndrewsMP What about COVID VACCINE INJURY clinics and COVID VACCINE INJURY helpline.

DanielAndrewsMP Better book yourself a spot AndrewsMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP More union money! LOL

DanielAndrewsMP Don’t trust anything Andrews says as he tries to buy his way into election win. Every state govt area is full of his corrupted behaviour . This state is dead if he gets Re elected !

DanielAndrewsMP Promises, promises….. We all know you do that part very well…..but the delivery, not so much! TimeToGoDan RememberInNovember

DanielAndrewsMP Meanwhile staff in the RMH have been apologising to patients for the noise caused by his train set. It's not enough that mris were disturbed by it, but unwell patients have constant disruption and the staff have no break from it.

DanielAndrewsMP Dan Andrews ...a complete failure from the beginning till now. Auspol CookVersusCrook Springst

DanielAndrewsMP Too little too late

DanielAndrewsMP jv241994 Feeton3060 andrewy181993 DarylTractor Let's not forget this.

DanielAndrewsMP Would be nice if we had those 4000 beds now tho.

DanielAndrewsMP $167.5 BILLION net debt Interest repayments $6,400,000, 000. blokes an absolute P$& . In 30 years our kids will still be nowhere near paying this off . Disgusting !!

DanielAndrewsMP PLEASE DAN, do not remove 5 day iso for schools. Vulnerable families will be forced NOT TO SEND THEIR KIDS TO SCHOOL. And what about vulnerable teachers? It’s unjust, inequitable and unsafe. Please. VictorianCHO

DanielAndrewsMP Lies lies and more lies. All this corrupt premier is - a corrupt lier.

DanielAndrewsMP Lots of election pledges that should have been done years ago.

DanielAndrewsMP How's those IC beds going, Dan

DanielAndrewsMP If I managed my finances as badly as DA I'd be homeless, begging for coins on the street.

DanielAndrewsMP Problem is it will be late, over budget followed by every possible problem you can imagine. It’s Victoria.

DanielAndrewsMP Will they use the 4000ICU beds?

DanielAndrewsMP Remember when you violated our right to work, movement, assembly, and speech and when we asked for the health advice to justify it you said that the health advice *is* the health advice? lol

DanielAndrewsMP ABCmediawatch

VDejan0000 DanielAndrewsMP Pinocchio 🤥🤥 Promises of Daniel Andrews! That's all they are. DanMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP Well you had better get to undermining his campaign because the Liberals couldn’t even persuade a single nurse to attend their unfunded health announcements with rump steak tied around their necks.

DanielAndrewsMP What’s he going to do ? Add a falling down the stairs recovery wing ?

DanielAndrewsMP As if!

DanielAndrewsMP Dan, Fix Housing, impose 50% stamp duty from second investment property onwards, 0% stamp duty for first investment property for an individual citizen aged 18 or above, stop other Hoarders looting our residential homes. Save first home buyers

DanielAndrewsMP DanielAndrewsMP is a lying murdering traitor. Lied about -COVID19 being deadlier than flu -following science on masks, lockdowns, social distancing. Was none -vax safety. As a frmr Health Minister he knew u need fully informed medical consent as all med procedures have risk

DanielAndrewsMP Promises, promises to fix the train wreck that he created. Wake up people

DanielAndrewsMP Wanna buy a Rolex ?

DanielAndrewsMP It’s getting stupid. Remote northern Regions are starved. Dan continues promising unconscionable amounts to his CBD (his DHS Secretary is after all a big ex Monash medic chief) & to overfunded quasi regions like Bendigo, his sun & Ballarat his moon. It’s so obvious the corruption

DanielAndrewsMP Plunging Victoria even further into debt

VDejan0000 DanielAndrewsMP Yah, anything to retain power even though the people hate him and his PM

DanielAndrewsMP Must be an election soon

DanielAndrewsMP Is it like pledging 4000 new beds or is this “pledge” real? 🤨

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Why haven’t they done it before should be your question. Dan has to go and so died his corrupt government

DanielAndrewsMP Could've promised billions more for Victoria'a failing health system years ago but he chose other options.🤦‍♂️ DanielAndrewsFAIL SackDanAndrews SpringSt

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP In other words, it's never going to happen.

DanielAndrewsMP Killer Dan

DanielAndrewsMP How can anyone believe the spin lies and incompetence of That person

DanielAndrewsMP What are you going to stop spending on to make this important change?

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP More lies and money for his mates

DanielAndrewsMP Still waiting for you premier to allow the former police commissioner Ken lay who u advised me had caused misfeaseance against me as well as perverted the course of justice over 5 yrs ago Yet u rewarded him for his corruption instead face a court of law after what he done to me

DanielAndrewsMP If Victorians fall for this con then they deserve him.

DanielAndrewsMP MahsaAmini

DanielAndrewsMP Wow, the Queen Elizabeth III memorial. After October 14th, I'll believe these promises when I see them.

DanielAndrewsMP Let critical services run down then pledge funding in election cycle, hope Victorian voters wise up ?

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Sorry Dan they won't be able do human brain transplants. Unless you will accept a pigs brain you'll have to wait 20years

DanielAndrewsMP Bullshit. Just like the 4000 additional beds.

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Lies lies and more lies!!!

DanielAndrewsMP 😂😂😂😂 Announcements by Andrews 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

DanielAndrewsMP To little too late Andrews... You should have done this way before! Nothing but a vote grabber. Disgraceful.

DanielAndrewsMP Does that mean you found them Chairmen Dan? You remember, the missing ICU BEDS. Where were they? 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

DanielAndrewsMP yeah cos he spent the funding in previous years on roads, because pollution weakening the respiratory system was more important to him and the only reason we went into cruel rights violating lockdowns. this a-hole needs to find a hole in the desert and crawl right into it.

DanielAndrewsMP LMAO he must think Victorians have very short memories or just hoping they do.

DanielAndrewsMP With 4000 icu beds?

DanielAndrewsMP Must be election time soon

DanielAndrewsMP Thank you for sharing Dan Andrews Full Press Conference in the above article related to the Premier's announcement today This is so important as CovidIsNotOver Dan answered any / all questions put to you over ~ 40 minutes All this is very reassuring heading to vicpol auspol

DanielAndrewsMP I love these pledges....still trying to work out why it hasn't already been one?

DanielAndrewsMP And when the maggot doesn’t deliver on his promise, what should happen to him 🤔🤬🤬🤬

DanielAndrewsMP Keeps clocking up the campaign lies.

DanielAndrewsMP Is Danny boy going to retrain all of his 400 personal staff to become doctors and nurses? Dump this incompetent inept and disgusting person and November

DanielAndrewsMP More lies ! There's that much things dan had promised over last 3 yrs not to mention said he would so if he got in last election turned out to be fake

DanielAndrewsMP Light the inferno then put it out hey Dan? Flog.

DanielAndrewsMP And where will the Drs come from? Will you reinstate all the Drs from AMPS_RedUnion

VDejan0000 DanielAndrewsMP He's had 14 years to fix the health system, more BS and lies good riddance Dan!

DanielAndrewsMP Can't do both In fact can't do either AndrewsMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP who is going to do the surgery? govt officials? .. you should support the HCW first 😠

DanielAndrewsMP biggest joke of the year .. shortage of HCW .. another pledge down the drain

DanielAndrewsMP More spin, more lies... Why? Oh yeah how many of the last 26 years has he been in charge? You've had your chance so do many a favour and piss off!

DanielAndrewsMP Nothing for the western suburbs as usual.

DanielAndrewsMP MatthewGuyMP will be able to divert some of that to regional hospitals that are in much greater need auspol

DanielAndrewsMP Where is our new hospital then? We are Victorian too wedeservebetter alburywodongahealth awh auspol

DanielAndrewsMP Had years to do this - along comes an election and suddenly anything is possible

DanielAndrewsMP Is that like his pledge for 3000 more emergency beds mmmmmmmmm ……l call bullshit

DanielAndrewsMP People don't believe the word this liar says...let alone the election promise / pledge ha ha. vicelection auspol vicpol

DanielAndrewsMP Dear Dan, You have had control of hospitals and ambulance services for 12 or 14 years. What are you only announcing this on the eve of an election? Trying to snow everyone? Did you Tweet this or was it one of the staff that the Victorian taxpayer is paying $13m for?

DanielAndrewsMP Victoria paying a 2.6c per Km levy for driving an electric vehicle AlboMP? The worst EV policy in the World and the most unfair. Revenue raising, why would Victorians convert to EV? You pay tax on electricity. You pay rego, the premium for the EV, and now a levy like a taxi!💢

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Sounds like to 4000 ICU beds that were promised

DanielAndrewsMP IStandWithDan

DanielAndrewsMP Except, of course, that there's absolutely no reason to believe anything he promises will ever come to pass. springst AndrewsMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP Too little, too late.

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Still waiting on the 4000 ICU beds he promised.

DanielAndrewsMP Wanted to speak at corruption conference in Sydney but was unsuccessful in my quest to expose comments Premier stated on Ken lay misfeasance and Premier promoting Ken I wonder if political interference to prevent me speaking

DanielAndrewsMP Is that like the 4000b beds you promised, it will just be another Andrews broken promise full of LIES

DanielAndrewsMP This is one of many reasons Dan will be re-elected. Health is a major priority and the Libs always cut fund and increase nurse to patient ratios. Was a nurse in NSW and now working in ICU in Melbourne I can see the difference and why so many health support Labor/Dan over the Libs

DanielAndrewsMP 8 yrs u had and failed to allow the former police commissioner Ken lay who u advised had caused Misfeaseance against me yet why will u not allow Ken to face court of law yet u promoted him to other positions

DanielAndrewsMP It'll never happen. This guy has form. It's bollox speak

DanielAndrewsMP 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🖕

DanielAndrewsMP Blah Blah Dan Andrews. AndrewsMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP Yet everything he says is a lie... go figure

DanielAndrewsMP 🤡

DanielAndrewsMP Easy to say when you have no intention to deliver, 4000 ICU beds anyone?

DanielAndrewsMP what a disingenuous lying grub this man is. Run down a health system for a decade and then promise to splash infinite amounts of money to 'fix' it just before an election. His polling must be pointing to him being in trouble

DanielAndrewsMP Hmmm election “pledge” from dictatorDan about as trustworthy as used car salesman at the EOM. 😂😂

DanielAndrewsMP Those surgeries would’ve been happening year after year already if he had done his job and delivered his other fake promises!

DanielAndrewsMP Just like the 4000 you promised about 3 years ago? Lie, elect me and then say “NO, that’s not what I said” I don’t trust you AT ALL. 🤬

DanielAndrewsMP 😂🤣🤡🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😅🤣🤡

DanielAndrewsMP Bollocks

DanielAndrewsMP Why do you print his lies?

DanielAndrewsMP Pork barrelling to save his own seat. AndrewsMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP Why do the newspapers peddle his lies He’s had years to do something of value but all he does is garbage politics , lies, corruption and harm

DanielAndrewsMP How many more years does Victorians wait for a better care? RememberInNovember cookversuscrook

DanielAndrewsMP How is it that Melbourne's newest hospital needs a $0.5bn overhaul? Additional capacity maybe, but how can U trust Dirty Daniel - the bullsh*tter who promised an extra 4,000 Covid beds which have yet to materialise. Andrews is a fibber. He has damaged the State beyond repair. OUT

DanielAndrewsMP Dear Dan, where are the 4,000 ICU beds that you promised?

DanielAndrewsMP Yet another 'if I am elected' pledge for our health ailing system. If all of this stuff is so vital then why the hell haven't you already done it? You do realise you have been in charge for 8 years don't you? sackdanandrews

DanielAndrewsMP He’ll probably just divert it to another white elephant infrastructure project to help fund his union mates.

DanielAndrewsMP STOP lying snd spending our noney IT IS NOT YOUR MONEY YOU CORRUPT PIG!!

DanielAndrewsMP 4000 ICU beds anyone?

DanielAndrewsMP Not while they continue to pretend covid is over. They won't magic up that many HCWs.

DanielAndrewsMP DictatorDan and his pledges 😂😂😂 it’s like all his promises, empty and always missed by the media CookVersusCrook SackDanAndrews DanAndrewsMustGo DanAndrewsCrimes

DanielAndrewsMP This guy is a liar and should be in jail, show the results of a poll done on real everyday Victorians and you will see what we think of this mutt

DanielAndrewsMP Promises. Your promises are hollow. Many of us are still waiting for those promises of 2018.

DanielAndrewsMP Chairman Dan has been in power for a while now. Why did he not do this last year? The year before last?

DanielAndrewsMP 2 points. If this is like the 4000ICU beds we’ll never see it. 2 this hospital is 5 yrs old cost 150 million and now he wants to spend how much to fix it? Why not build it right from the start? Andrews is the most corrupt incompetent premier ever seen in this country.

DazzaWhitmey DanielAndrewsMP And how is he going to staff it when everyone will be constantly, physically ill? 🤷‍♀️

DanielAndrewsMP How long have you had to fix this? Labor has run our hospitals into the ground for 20 years!

Hes only got another 70000 surgeries to catch up.

DanielAndrewsMP Oh. The Age reporting actual news for a change.

DanielAndrewsMP Why hadn't he done that in the lest 14 years CookversusCrook

DanielAndrewsMP Will he utilise the 4,000 ICU beds he has in reserve?!

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP You mean a lie by the dictator

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP I have a plan for everything you want. 0% guarantee to deliver. One thing is for sure: debt is yours. 'vote Dan Andrew'. I'll die for my power.

DanielAndrewsMP You mean allegedly

DanielAndrewsMP He also pledged 4,000 extra beds but they never eventuated. It’s easier to lie that to do.

DanielAndrewsMP Bullshit !

DanielAndrewsMP IStandWithDan

DanielAndrewsMP More lies! He is yet to filfill ANY of his previous health promises

DanielAndrewsMP Bracks/Brumby designed the new RCH and they got it done. Plus since a change over in Federal from LNP to ALP they can go back to this. 2010 Health Reform Press Conference: Julia Gillard, Nicola Roxon, Wayne Swan

DanielAndrewsMP Do we even have a 'budget' anymore? Where the hell is this extra money coming from? Especially in a monetary environment that is seeing rapid increases in borrowing cost?

DanielAndrewsMP This is crazy stuff! Who is going to staff the hospitals when they let Covid19 run wild with ⬇️iso & the HCWs down tools? You think they won't say 'enough?' Care for your workforce and ReduceTransmission in community. Don't let some of them get Long Covid & burnout. Prevent!!!

DanielAndrewsMP Still waiting on the ICU beds....

DanielAndrewsMP Why doesn't he mention the massive growth in demand for healthcare created by his population growth addiction? This doesn't even make up the deficits of recent decades & now we have another huge wave set to hit.

DanielAndrewsMP Give the resources now, Dan. Don't wait until the election.

Like the missing 4000 beds! 🤣🤣🤣

DanielAndrewsMP Give the resources no Dan. Don't wait until the election.

DanielAndrewsMP Between all his bogus railways that cost squillions with constant overruns & penalty payments where is he going to find all this money to try & fix what he broke in the first place? I pity future generations in Victoria. They'll be paying off Andrews' failures for decades to come

DanielAndrewsMP It would be great if you extended the budget and not just in drips and drabs to west Gippsland Healthcare Group in Warragul- continuing to bypass the liberal seat is blatant discrimination and unjust to its population

DanielAndrewsMP Why has he waited so long to make it happen ? He's a liar

DanielAndrewsMP Yeah great, could be ready to deal with the pandemic of longCOVID if nurses don't walk out.

DanielAndrewsMP Where's the 4000 ICU beds ? Liar .

DanielAndrewsMP 4 years ago he promised new hospitals for Geelong and Melton, and they're still waiting. He promised to upgrade Maroondah hospital, but has dusted off the cobwebs on that promise 4 years later. He can't explain what happened to $1.3b for 4k ICU beds not delivered. AndrewsMustGo

DanielAndrewsMP PLEDGE PLEDGE ……… pledge ……. Fled

DanielAndrewsMP Why don't you rename this one while you're at it? Bunurong Hospital has a nice ring to it.

DanielAndrewsMP Anyone who falls for this will fall for anything. He keeps making health promises every election. None of which he will keep.

DanielAndrewsMP By voting in agreement with NC to scrap iso & other mitigations, your actions will cause increased Covid transmission, resulting in more cases of long COVID & death You have effectively abandoned us... so be prepared to be abandoned by us in Nov

DanielAndrewsMP That is 200 Surgeries a day ? I doubt any hospital in world can do that.

DanielAndrewsMP No credibility - recall his last promise:

DanielAndrewsMP Didn’t you guarantee 4,000 ICU beds - can’t trust anything you say

DanielAndrewsMP what BS

DanielAndrewsMP More from a corrupt premier

DanielAndrewsMP Promise the world deliver 1 train loop and billions of debt more than 3other states 😂😂

DanielAndrewsMP I no longer believe anything 'promised' by any political party Our healthcare system has been underfunded by Govts on both sides of the political spectrum for over 30 years

DanielAndrewsMP But his word means nothing!

DanielAndrewsMP Great, that ought to go about 10% of the way toward dealing with huge immigration numbers of last ten years. Hospital beds per person are half that of 20 yrs ago. Now for the other 90%....

DanielAndrewsMP I’m not sorry but just more verbal Diarrhoea

DanielAndrewsMP I bet it’s similar to the 2018 promise he never delivered as well. Or those promised 4000 icu beds… ffs….

DanielAndrewsMP Expecting credit for fixing what you broke is what narcissists do.

DanielAndrewsMP hospitals can't be over capacity when you legislate that they're allowed to refuse service to people with health emergencies!

DanielAndrewsMP As good as surgeons may be, they can't do much without well trained and experienced nurses and they are leaving in droves, totally fried.

DanielAndrewsMP Isn't announcing this a bit after the horse has bolted

DanielAndrewsMP Off topic, apologies... I inadvertently caught a rear view glimpse of my dog taking a dump this morning. It reminded me of someone

DanielAndrewsMP Now he try’s to fix the system bit friggin late..springst..

DanielAndrewsMP the inept liberals are building a surgery app. watch out for the app rap ad. libclowns

DanielAndrewsMP Money grows on trees for this inept mob. With debt at stratospheric levels, who pays?And where do the medical staff come from?

DanielAndrewsMP Why weren’t these things done before? It will not chance our voting because after the elections it will be all forgotten again!

DanielAndrewsMP So what value does a politicians promise have?

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP Honestly why bother

DanielAndrewsMP Lol except they’re so short-staffed they’re struggling to function currently

DanielAndrewsMP Should go well with the 4000 extra beds you promised Dan.🤦‍♂️

DanielAndrewsMP Meanwhile the Liberals are already crying poor on being able to improve things in the state.

DanielAndrewsMP Wonderful! Thank you Dan!!!

DanielAndrewsMP Monash Clayton, get in! Great job Dan

DanielAndrewsMP Labor have been in power 18 of the last 22 years. Andrews was Health Minister for 3 of them, and Premier for 8 years. Seeing how we’re told how bad things have got, and even last election promises such Geelong Women’s Hospital not even started, cant help but become disenchanted.

DanielAndrewsMP More bullshit from the compulsive liar 🤥

DanielAndrewsMP 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 are you joking he already promised countless beds 2 years ago then said we didn’t promise that why would anyone believe anything that comes from his mouth .

DanielAndrewsMP Epic election commitment by Labor 👍 👏 👌 ❤️

DanielAndrewsMP

DanielAndrewsMP 👏👏👏👏

DanielAndrewsMP Dont tell me .... 2026 start finish 2030. If at all. Melton hospital promised last election hasn't turned a sod of soil.

DanielAndrewsMP Don’t pledge do it now words.

DanielAndrewsMP Hmmm, how many pledges actually materialise in practice. Wise not to be seduced by pre-election spin! Healthcare has been badly treated for decades.

DanielAndrewsMP Don’t believe him….where are this 4000 beds

DanielAndrewsMP Funny how he only does it for re-election. But did nothing in the years he was Premier!

DanielAndrewsMP And the East Link Tunnel will be finished and the Airport loop stacks up and, and, and

Victoria’s ‘slack attitude to economic productivity’ set to ‘get worse’Sky News host Peta Credlin says many CBDs are still struggling post-COVID, with Melbourne one of the hardest hit. “Where analysis from the Victorian Property Council says that only about a third of workers are back in the office,” she said. Ms Credlin said the main culprit of this is Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and his government as they believe letting people work from home “in their tracksuit pants and Ugg boots” will help him win the upcoming state election. “Well today, a leaked draft of Labor's state election platform, shows that this slack attitude to our economic productivity just gets worse,” she said. Ms Credlin said the leak involved a proposal for a “four-day work week with five days’ pay”. “And while small business will say, quite properly, we can't afford to pay people for a day's work we don't get, you can bet the taxpayers of Victoria will have to cop it sweet so that Labor wins the election in November,” she said.
