Labor voters were significantly more likely to be happy with the state government's response .
Mr Andrews' personal approval has taken a hammering in recent weeks as the hotel quarantine inquiry has heard damning evidence and hospitality and retail have pushed for an earlier reopening. "The dire polling for Michael O'Brien suggests that the Victorian community has reacted very negatively to perceived attempts to politicise the crisis and that Mr O'Brien might be paying the price of placating those in his party who have been intent on muscling up to the government over the pandemic," Dr Strangio said.
Mr Trickett, a 76-year-old retiree from Herne Hill in Geelong, believed the lockdown and measures such as compulsory mask wearing had brought the virus under control, although he said they possibly should have been implemented earlier. Virginia Fricker, a 67-year-old retiree from Mount Martha, believed Mr O'Brien was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
"I don't like his forcefulness," she said. "If you want people to follow rules you have to give them rules they understand and see are reasonable.""What was worse he was yielding a big stick while the government was messing up on hotel quarantine and contact tracing.""This might have turned us into two Greens," she said
JewelTopsfield So I wasn’t alone in condemning his pathetic strategy to oppose everything.
JewelTopsfield Makes sense then why Victoria is 6months behind the rest of this country... A burden upon us all!
JewelTopsfield It could be in part because he isn't a leader. He's a little snipeboy. Have we heard one word of congratulations to the Victorian people who he is also supposed to represent After all not every Victorian voted for D.A or has that slipped his notice.
JewelTopsfield
JewelTopsfield Most Victorians aren’t stupid. We saw and heard how the LNP have behaved!
DoctorFiveball JewelTopsfield You mean the polls that said Bill Shorten will win, Hillary Clinton 🤦♂️
DoctorFiveball JewelTopsfield 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
JewelTopsfield Micheal who? talk about being asleep at the wheel
AnthonyCole68 JewelTopsfield BoycottMurdoch NoBeersForNewsCorp NoBeersForScotty
JewelTopsfield Yes. O’Brien is a whiny little flog
JewelTopsfield All Michael O’Brien knows how to do is whinge and moan ... I’m so sick of seeing him on the news every night. He never has anything constructive or helpful to say, just complains, so it’s not surprising to hear his poll numbers are dismal.
DanielCherny JewelTopsfield Who?
JewelTopsfield Fake woke news
JewelTopsfield The bloke is the best leader in the country. Federal Labor would do well to get him in their mix.
JewelTopsfield Who is the guy in the photo?
michael47818552 JewelTopsfield The Liberal Party in Victoria behaved badly. Encouraging nut bag opposition to protective health measures? During the Blitz in England during WWII would they have said “I’m not turning my lights out that’s inconvenient” I really do wonder about their commitment to this State?
JewelTopsfield Favourite stats: 29% of Liberal voters support Dan Andrews. Only 27% of Liberal Voters support the liberal guy, whatsisname 🤭 getonthebeers NoBeersForNewsCorp
JewelTopsfield Who’s the Lib leader again
JewelTopsfield Anything coming out of The Age has to be viewed with extreme doubt and heavily to the left.
JewelTopsfield That was last week. Do another poll this week please
JewelTopsfield Oh, I wonder why? Sheesh! It’s called leading from the front and putting people and health before political gain and $.
JewelTopsfield You mean the bloke who did nothing but undermine all attempts to defeat the virus. The bloke who never had a good word to say about Victorians. The bloke who put politics over health. The bloke who constantly whined, and sniped and complained. That bloke? DonutsDay ThankYouDan
JewelTopsfield Brainwashed
JewelTopsfield Bullshit Poll. This is Fake news no one I know respects this government or the leader. Absolute bullshit
FatherBob JewelTopsfield Must be a lot of morons in Victoria
JewelTopsfield EXCLUSIVE:
JewelTopsfield Fake News!
JewelTopsfield 'The dire polling for Michael O'Brien suggests that the Victorian community has reacted very negatively to perceived attempts to politicise the crisis...” Looking over your shoulder michaelobrienmp ? You should be. COVID19Vic vicpol
JewelTopsfield Now do a poll on how the public feel the media have reported the second wave. Or will that not fit the narrative?
JewelTopsfield We love and appreciate you Dan . Thank u
JewelTopsfield Bring on Matthew Guy LobsterGuy We can't wait! 😄😄🦞🦞🦞🦞
JewelTopsfield Michael O’Brien needs to take a good long look at himself and his party. An absolute disgrace.
JewelTopsfield Hahaha. That ain't the opposition leader! Hahaha.
JewelTopsfield No shit, unfortunately the opposition leader is probably a nice person but does not cut the mustard as a premier....
JewelTopsfield Total rubbish - everyone I speak to blames him for this catastrophic lockdown.
guess a lot of dumb people participate in polls
JewelTopsfield __njoku
JewelTopsfield The Leader of the Opposition is pretty useless. I have to look up who he is pretty often.
FatherBob JewelTopsfield The guy showed leadership immense pressure. A real leader that stood up copped unfounded criticism on the chi but stood firm confident in his decisions. Listened to the right people. The complete opposite to ScottyFromMarketing who is only after the cheap media op.
JewelTopsfield Hilarious
JewelTopsfield 858 people! SPEECHLESS’ The facts: ‘The Ipsos online poll, conducted from October 19-21, asked 858 Victorians aged over 18 if they supported or opposed the updated lockdown restrictions announced on October 18. The data was weighted to represent the state demographic profile.’
JewelTopsfield With continued whining and no helping hand extended, the Victorians could see through the shallow power grab politics. Grow up and get real policies.
DanielCherny JewelTopsfield No one knew who he was before all this, so our first taste of him was a guy that wanted to use Victorians fears and concerns for his own political gain. Same for that flog Tim Smith
JewelTopsfield Thank you Dan for caring about our state! And also thank you for standing up to newsporpse and NotALeaderJustALiberal
premnev JewelTopsfield Well, Michael is a complete prat..
JewelTopsfield Victorians are morons.
JewelTopsfield Garbage
JewelTopsfield The guy has to stand in front of a sign with his name on it... enough said
JewelTopsfield That's what happens when one leader works hard and follows the science, and the other acts irresponsibly...during a global pandemic
AnthonyCole68 JewelTopsfield NoBeersForNewsCorp NoBeersFor9Entertainment or Peter Costello's Age either I reckon.
JewelTopsfield They could start a business together, 'Wankers & Grifters Inc' Sounds nice.
JewelTopsfield Welcome to the party, once proud masthead, that now just plays catch up
JewelTopsfield That’s going to piss off the Murdochracy and their masters in Canberra. Fuck them!
JewelTopsfield Who is the opposition leader? 🤔
JewelTopsfield Michael O'Brien is a daily whinge. His stunt on the graves of COVID victims was appalling.
JewelTopsfield libspill
JewelTopsfield This is a Scam Poll - show us the true details - how many people were surveyed and where? The Age is in bed with Dan and his union mates... Roy Morgan is also paid by the labour party - of course they will make him look good.
JewelTopsfield Didn’t know who it was until I saw this post
JewelTopsfield Looking like there probably will be a LibSpill soon.
JewelTopsfield CONGRATULATIONS DAN ANDREWS and your GOVERNMENT To all you wonderful Victorian that stood strong 👏👏👏👏👏🥳🙌🏻
JewelTopsfield The Age hasn’t been reading the room very well....Noel now trying to get into reverse, but I expect Chip to hit back with some adversarial view no doubt....
JewelTopsfield Well well. You wouldn't have known this had your only reading matter been the Murdoch press. But then they don't print news do they? Only LNP propaganda.
JewelTopsfield Interesting how quickly they jumped on O'Brien, so what - Dan's ok now? I guess good news doesn't sell. ThisIsNotJournalism
JewelTopsfield Who?
JewelTopsfield What did they expect? The Victorian Liberals contributed nothing since day one.
JewelTopsfield O'brien's numbers should be devastating! He spent lockdown trying to undermine the health advice and dan's actions which were there to save us! Total dick
JewelTopsfield libspill coming if O’Brien still can’t cut through with all the help he gets from the right wing nut job media constantly trying to bring down Dan. But who do they swap him out for, DimTim I think not? Is there anyone in Vic Liberals that are capable?
JewelTopsfield Libspill
JewelTopsfield *that’s an and, not a but.
JewelTopsfield Other than those rusted on ideologues, I have no idea why anyone could support this shit DanielAndrewsMP government. Death and destruction on their watch through gross incompetence in hotel quarantine. And the cover up of their crimes is even worse.
JewelTopsfield The libs have been relentlessly negative and unhelpful throughout the lockdown - cheap and cynical - hopefully to end up with holes in their feet
JewelTopsfield I’d be very surprised if O’Brien is around to contest the next election.
JewelTopsfield
JewelTopsfield michaelobrienmp is cooked. Put a fork in him. Ropadoped into a hairy chested, faux macho display by TimSmithMP for his own agenda. Such insipid, reactive leadership. springst
Not surprising with members like Tim Smith in the party.
JewelTopsfield Cause and effect.
JewelTopsfield what ever your politics, but to hear Tim Smith Member for Kew, on SYDNEY radio (why 2gb)... talking down victoria. it is very difficult to view him as a (future)minister in a lnp Government... actually very difficult to see a Future LNP gov at all.
JewelTopsfield we've known all along... despite the media trashing
JewelTopsfield Polls are easily rigged haha
JewelTopsfield Michael O’Brien has shown no support for Victorians & he has had no control of his MP’s - he has also undermined the health message since the beginning of the pandemic. He is not a leader - he should be ashamed of his actions throughout this period!
JewelTopsfield Yeah just like the Polls Shorten was a shoe in😂 I work in a labor electorate and let me tell you they HATE DanielAndrewsMP & say he will pay come next election. Don’t know where these polls come from ? Maybe Andrews thousands of public servants who have had guaranteed work!!!
JewelTopsfield Dan Andrews, the most un-inspirational leader of our life time. Victoria has hit under 4 cases rolling average, he still has no confidence in his useless contact team. Only took him 9 months- Gladys did it with NIL lock downs, IStandWithDan DanielAndrewsMP danforpm
JewelTopsfield Michael who? 🤔
JewelTopsfield With a credible alternative plan and a science based approach could have won massive support. Instead went the political point scoring option. Most aussies I know hate this bs.
JewelTopsfield Liberals need a new leader someone with a bit of intelligence
JewelTopsfield Tim is waiting in the wings to replace O'Brien. If you think the numbers are bad for O'Brien, wait until Tim Smith shows up as leader.
JewelTopsfield I've heard the words 'Liberal' and 'Leader' before, wondering why they'd ever appear in the same sentence about Victoria?
JewelTopsfield Possibly because O’Brien and his entire party have done nothing but whine. While the rest of us did our best, they did their worst.
JewelTopsfield libspill?
JewelTopsfield You love to see it
JewelTopsfield Who is O'brien?
JewelTopsfield O’Brian has 0 chance of winning
JewelTopsfield Why would anyone support a lying, corrupt, incompetent failure? He's only still Premier because of interference from Victorian Trades Hall in his corrupt party. DanLiedPeopleDied DanMustGo ResignDanielAndrews
JewelTopsfield What rubbish.... I don’t know a single person who supports Dan. Who is doing these polls? His immediate family?
JewelTopsfield oh, you mean the many months of Tim Smith’s divisive antics were really all just a play for the Liberal leadership? Imagine my surprise!
JewelTopsfield Who? Oh the happy liberal twat, meh
JewelTopsfield NotALeaderJustALiberal Hopefully the Libs will now realise their folly, roll O'Brien and install Smith! LibSpill DimTim COVID19Vic
JewelTopsfield Because people generally don’t like politicians who act like puerile schoolyard bullies.
JewelTopsfield How could O'Brien's following be anything but devastating considering his behaviour & nasty, haranguing & sniping of the Premier, when every man (& Women's) dog was so impressed with the way the Covid numbers were handled. Hubris often leads to the downfall of many a politician.
JewelTopsfield This is no surprise
