Former Victoria Police chief commissioner Kel Glare has criticised Premier DanielAndrewsMP’s proposed new powers as a “dangerous grab for unfettered power”.

Former Victoria Police chief commissioner Kel Glare has criticised Premier Daniel Andrews’ proposed new powers as a “dangerous grab for unfettered power”. The omnibus bill – which is currently before Victoria’s upper house – would grant the state government extraordinary powers to appoint anyone as an authorised officer, which would allow them to arrest anyone they suspect of breaching the chief health officer’s orders.

Mr Glare says the move is without just cause as the state’s coronavirus caseload continues to drop, and he is concerned over the vetting process of the officers following Melbourne’s bungled hotel quarantine program. Former deputy police commissioner Noel Newman has joined Mr Glare in his criticism of the bill. The Victorian government faces an uphill battle in the upper house – where Labor does not hold a majority – and will be forced to rely heavily on key crossbenchers.

Andrews will ‘find an excuse’ to resign early 2021 and avoid blame: Credlin | Sky News AustraliaVictorian Premier Daniel Andrews will “find a reason to step down” early next year in the hope Victorians will be relieved at the final easing of restrictions and thank him for saving them, according to Peta Credlin.\n\n“Rather than blame him for rightly causing this second wave in the first place,” she said.\n\nMs Credlin said the Counsel Assisting the COVID-19 Hotel Quarantine Inquiry’s closing submission showed it is trying to “pin the blame on the bureaucrats”.\n\n“The same bureaucrats that the Premier insists continue-to-have his full confidence. You can see what's coming, can't you: a report that lets the Premier off the hook, so that the Premier can then let-off the officials,” she said.\n\nThis will lead to an outcome where “no one ends up accountable for the errors and untruthfulness” which caused the deaths of over 750 Victorians and countless livelihoods ruined, according to Ms Credlin.\n\nShe said Melburnians are rightly feeling “COVID fatigue” after months of spin over substance.\n\n“Of the hard work not being done, of Victorians being blamed for not doing the right thing, demonised and fined, when the mistakes were deep inside the government.\n\n“Dan Andrews is over this. \n\n“Especially, over the past few weeks, the man at the podium no longer radiates a spin masters polish but instead, a testy impatience with everyone who thinks that he might actually be to blame for all this.”\n DanielAndrewsMP She wishes DanielAndrewsMP Wanna bet on that?
