Daniel Andrews' 77-year-old mother Jan Andrews had called into one of her favourite shows – the Weekend Mornings program – to reflect on her son's time in the spotlight of an unprecedented crisis.Credit:"It's a combination of everything really, that we've gotten through it," Ms Andrews said of her emotions now that the deadly second wave of COVID-19 has subsided.
Like the rest of Victoria, the mother of the most powerful man in Victoria has suffered with the restrictions imposed to stem the spread of the virus – Ms Andrews, who lives in Wangaratta, has not seen her son, daughter in-law or grandchildren in person since last Christmas.She's seen her son like the rest of us, on the podium in front of that familiar purple background, in his daily press conferences.
"I have watched every press conference. And some days I have thought, 'yes, you look OK', other days, I've thought 'oh Daniel you're looking very tired'," she said. "But he's strong." Health Minister Martin Foley led the coronavirus briefing on Saturday in the Premier's absence. Ms Andrews said she purposely didn't ask her son what he had planned for today when she spoke to him on Thursday.Credit:

Victoria records one new coronavirus case as Daniel Andrews takes a day off from mediaVictoria has reported one new case of COVID-19 as Melbourne residents head into a weekend of greater social freedom. Quick! lock it all down and blame the public before they all wake up and lynch you! Let the vic people/prisoners go free and stay free, we have cases here but arent locked up. Enough is enough 'Greater social freedom.' What a grim phrase, and certainly one I never thought I'd hear in a liberal democracy.

'Manipulating minds' is Daniel Andrew's forte: Jones | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Alan Jones says manipulating minds is “Daniel Andrews’ forte” and he will stop at nothing to convince you to vote for him.\n\n“We learn today that a Labor ‘strategist’ has been paid almost $2 million by Daniel Andrews' own department in Victoria, to run a project to monitor the views of Victorians,” Mr Jones said. \n\n“And despite the taxpayer bankrolling this dubious and unwanted work, the ‘research’ will remain under wraps within Andrews' Department of Premier and Cabinet. They won't release it.\n\nMr Jones said in December last year, an outfit called QDOS Research was handed a $1.1 million contract without a competitive tender.\n\nThe same were paid over three quarters of a million to conduct research for Mr Andrews department between 2016 and 2018, he said.\n\nMr Jones said the QDOS research outfit was operated by the veteran Labor pollster and strategist, John Armitage.\n\n“It trades, apparently, on its ability to shape public opinion, change public behavior, win elections and develop persuasive language for clients,” he said.\n\n“In a section headlined, 'QDOS Values,' the firm's website says, ‘fortunately, public opinion is a fluid thing that we can squeeze, pump and stir and sometimes just opening a little gate lets it rush into a brand new space’.\n\n“Really?” Mr Jones said.\n\n“In relation to Australians and voters, it argues, ‘the tricky bit is figuring out how to change what they think and how they behave.’\n\n“This is Daniel Andrews forte. Manipulating minds to have people believe rubbish does not stink. \n\n“And he is prepared to fork out $2 million of your money to his mates and no competitive tender. \n\n“This bloke will stop at nothing to convince you that you should vote for him. \n\n“Only a rolled gold mug could swallow that.”\n DanielAndrewsMP The next Victorian state election is scheduled to be held on the 26th of November 2022..Dan Andrews is the Leader of the State of Victoria.... He's not bloody Uri Geller, he doesn't profess to bend spoons or read minds. DanielAndrewsMP Better than the Greek dance you did on your campaign DanielAndrewsMP Really Alan 🤨🤨🤨
