over the rising number of cases and the state’s chief medical officer Brett Sutton may have been “overwhelmed” in the early days of the virus second wave.“As a Victorian, I feel so devastated about what has transpired in our state. It should never have got to this,” he toldIt comes after Assistant Treasurer Michael Sukkar said the issue in Victoria was “not simply bad luck” but poor leadership.
Reports have suggested the guards were not trained properly in infection control and were also not enforcing the rules strictly enough, which may have lead some of them to become infected and then spreading the virus among their family and friends.that security guards at the hotel had slept with guests, taken some of them to shopping centres and allowed them to move between rooms. Hygiene practices around personal protective equipment were reportedly not followed.
Network Ten political editor Peter van Onselen acknowledged there had obviously been problems with the program but noted on ABC’sthis morning that Western Australia also used private security guards and had not experienced an outbreak like Victoria. Andrews said: “I think there are multiple agencies that have oversight” before going on to talk about why he set up the inquiry.Who knocked the army back?
Are you saying the Crisis Council of Cabinet didn’t have any role in making these decisions about ADF troops?You are part of that crisis cabinet and you’re saying you don’t have the answers, isn’t that ultimately what the body was set up to do? It just seems incredible that during the early debate about this in cabinet that no one raised the prospect of police, ADF or the Department of Corrections taking control of it, or giving them appropriate oversight?
“That’s why I’ve set up an inquiry to get me the answers that I want and that Victorians are entitled to.” “I don’t think anyone had a sense, certainly I did not have a sense that we were heading towards a situation where genomic sequencing would confirm that at least a significant number of cases had come from that setting.
Add one more thing to the long list of bungles and incompetence from DisasterDan
He is the most arrogant and liar, has to step down now
FFS. This is grade A garbage. Completely fabricated 'news'.
This is old news!
Attacks on Murdoch extreme right wing garbage are growing quickly. So many now know they can never believe one word written in Murdoch papers.
Repeated disingenuous opinion from newscorp has improved premier's reputation
Criticism of is growing as people realise it is a liberal mouthpiece and conduit for excessive intellectual diarrhea.
Only according to rw press like yourselves.
What utter rubbish from the Murdoch trash!
Be careful what you wish for. The inquiry might reveal federal incompetence whilst clearing Andrews of any wrong doing.
It's only growing amongst those numpties who listen to the Murdoch doctrine. Those of us with brains in our heads know that he's doing a bloody good job, and he's not going to play your games. IStandWithDan
Oh give it a break! It’s under investigation. You are getting really boring. We know what your agenda is and we see you.
Can we at least focus on our situation at the moment? Let's help our frontliners relay to everyone their needs & concerns to keep our health system going.
I feel for this guy the only people to blame are the people of Victoria for not doing the right thing in the first place
You do realise the longer you continue the witch hunt the more people your converting to Dan fans right? I’ve jumped fence, you guys helped push me right over it! ThisisNotJournalism ScottyFromMarketing
More lies from a sick and twisted murdoch rag.
🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩
Stop making shit up
Only in newscopse 'reporting,' and LNP apparachiks.
If Comrade Dan and his responsible minsiters don't know who was responsible for the hotel Quarentine bungle by now they are either lying or are incompetent and should all resign
Nope. Criticism of newscorp is growing and you're trying to deflect.
Im frustrated that people are still leaving their homes to visit partners either you stay away for 6 weeks or you stay with them as a defacto but seriously what l have seen is utter bullshit!!!
That’s a no. Stop peddling false info.
What “details”? Feds said “pick one” - he picked MSS and they subbed it out to a bunch of cowboys without training or oversight. Why aren’t News Corp after them? How much did MSS skim off the $12m contract? How much did MSS kick back to LNPCrimeFamily ?
Stop writing shit.
Federal government responsibility
How bad is media at reading the room... enough already. Oh btw helloooo the rest of Australia here ... how about a story on logging old growth forests or something.
Isn't the federal government responsible for quarantine?
Dear Mr Murdoch, No amount of shit you throw at him is going to take away the respect he has from those that matter, the people. Mine are Liberal votes (who hate the Nationals) and they, are SO grateful for Dan. Continue with you shit for you are pushing them towards Dan.
Sorry just helping you with some facts:
Murdoch garbage. $1.5 billion quarterly loss, I wonder if he asks why?
Frustrations from Murdoch
So which bit of FED govt responsible 4 quarantine & it was their tendered priv comps dan used do u not get Or spoilt brats threate self harm bcs cant cope 14 days in hotel or sleeping with guards Yuk or fact fed govt wanted these selfish pricks selfisolate so wld hav spread it
I want to thank the Murdoch press because without your vitriol and bile I would never have realised what great leaders people like Gillard and Andrews were. Thanks.
Rubbish 👎👎👎👎
You are a disgrace, and history will judge you as such.
Your Dan bashing campaign isn't working out how you imagined, is it? The more you undermine Victoria's public health response, the more we respect Dan Andrews' strong leadership. Australia sees through this LNP/IPA propaganda.
Give up... the horse is dead
That is an outright lie. He has given two hour press conferences on the subject and instigated an inquest into the issue. You guys have given up in any semblance of truth in reporting. You now just lie to suit your agenda.
Give the enquiry a chance and BTW the commonwealth government has responsibility for border control, aged care and workforce issues. rubyprincess
Only Murdoch journalists & the LNP are criticising. ScottMorrisonMP is responsible for quarantine and for aged care.
Your paper sucks, you should be ashamed of the work you do
The hotels themselves have escaped scrutiny.
Criticism of Dan Andrews is growing because thats what Rupert Murdoch has ordered Australians are sick & tired of this crappy journalism go ask scottyfrommarketting why hes stacked the AAT with LNP members thats a news worthy story
Got enough toilet paper, cheer.
Making up stories. propaganda IStandWithDan
There’s a review currently happening is usual that information is given before it’s actually run it’s course? Current criticism is unhelpful and just alarming people in vic.
It's not, he's not, stop trying.
Everyone is sick to death of this kind of ”reporting”. ThisisNotJournalism grownup.
Yawn
Don’t you ever get bored with running the same stories. We do.
The government needs to be open and transparent if they want to gain back any trust
Give him a break, it's not like he told the security guards to sleep with people in quarantine... It's the guards actions and stupidity that got us in this message. It's the fact that people have been told since day dot to follow the rules but refuse to listen.
Need to be looking ahead not behind. Plenty of time to revisit this after we are out of a state of disaster... dumb journalists and trashy politicians trying to point score at wrong time. growup
Shut up news Corp. There is growing evidence that it was a Federal government bungle, just like the Ruby princess
People need to know the truth about CCP virus
Stop attacking Dan Andrews- why is ScottMorrisonMP blocking a summons from the NSW Commission of Inquiry for federal officials to give evidence about the RubyPrincess ? Australians deserve answers? RubyDutton .
Yadda yadda yadda Shut up.. wear a mask.. stay home
newscorpse hysteria is increasing
RubyPrincess
Is it frustrating to put so much effort into attacking this man but the greater public aren’t buying it?
This 'bungle' you mean?
Critics
It's only growing because it travels from The Australian or the Herald-Sun, to Sky News, to Bolt, to Jones, and then into RWNJ's feeds. The Conservative network at work.
The arm chair critics and the wannabe successful journalist are the only critics. A pandemic that has killed 100’sthousands of people globally.lets not forget ScoMo and half the liberal cabinet were overseas while Aust was on fire!Dan was in Victoria taking care of his people
B/s
It’s easy to criticise but these people are working so hard to help others 24/7. How about THANK YOU for change. DanielAndrewsMP VictorianCHO
Pretty much how the workflow for this story could've gone down. News Corp is out to get Andrews, how dare he be a popular Labor leader! IStandWithDan
The more they hate on him. The more we praise him. If they wanna cement Dan's position for the next 10 years they're going a great way about it
O please
Self-fulfilling bs
Oh for goodness sake back off, worry about it at a later date when there will be the obligatory enquiry results. BTY, still waiting for the Ruby Princess results.
You should be banned from this country and around the world
We see your agenda and push back. IStandWithDan
All of us should focus to pass this tough time together! Do NOT distract us by the misleading news! IStandWithDan
Not from the Majority of Victorians. The RW trolls yes but they are irrelevant
Under the circumstances, the Victorian Government is just managing. Isolation breaches are the root cause - the truth, however painful needs to emerge
FFS - the man is staying impartial from the enquiry. That's what we want. We don't want the people being investigated to do the investigating. How thick do you have to be to not grasp that incredibly simple concept?
Joke story. Media doesn’t like same answer over and over. “ JUDICIAL INQUIRY - NO COMMENT UNTIL INQUIRY IS FINISHED”! Thickheads!
Just get on with it, join the van driven by Dan, we'll all get there eventually.
Isn't the inquiry still in progress you dipsticks.
What a load of rubbish. Move on, there are lives at stake and real, factual information required that could be useful to save them - this garbage reporting doesn’t help anyone!
Rubbish.
‘Criticism of Scott Morrison is growing as he resists calls to reveal details of (sports rorts/watergate/bushfire relief fund/aged care/funding for the arts/Ruby Princess)’. There, I fixed it for you.
Criticism from Murdoch and Liberals will not save one life. WA used private security as well. Andrews is working non stop to protect us. News Ltd doing the opposite.
We need transparency ... this Gov has never shown that ... I have to agree with Frydenberg ... “I’ll let Dan Andrews explain what happened ..”
IStandWithDan
How's all the nuffs that have allowed Murdoch to live inside their heads rent free 😀😀
Didn't like the ratio on the original tweet A few hours ago Trying again to get more favorable comments for your agenda Murdoch Scum!!
Life must be tough for Dan when even Murdoch's left wing at news.con is pushing hard for answers.
🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
Gawd, are all the people at really as thick as two planks
Poor guy looks defeated. People have to have someone to attack, and he hasn't given in! IStandWithDan
Did you forget the bit about it being under investigation at the moment? Did you also forget to pursue RubyDutton about his part in the RubyPrincess fiasco? ThisisNotJournalism LNPfail propaganda
Bullshit.
It's pure lies DanielAndrewsMP knows exactly what happened
The LNP won't like the answers.
Hi. Victorian in lockdown here. Quarantine is fed Border Force responsibility, as is privatised aged care. I have no frustration with Dan Andrews but I am utterly sick of the Feds pointing their fingers south while shredding paperwork and doctoring websites.
Only growing among Newscorp journalists at their loss-making newspapers. Nobody, literally, is buying your shit.
Reveal what! THERE IS AN INQUIRY IN PROGRESS! JournalismIsDead crapjournalists oh and thanks for yet another opportunity to use IStandWithDan
No, it isn’t
The only place where criticism is growing is in Murdoch land.
Whose frustration? No credibility in reporting from this site.
No it is not.
So this is the media actually believing they are the news. It’s a bizarre determination to shout over the top of everybody else, even though what they are saying is being rejected at every turn.
No, it's not, Australians now more than ever support Daniel Andrews. The Murdoch press's utter lies are nothing more than political garbage, and we've had enough of your shit. ThisIsNotJournalism BoycottMurdoch IStandWithDan
Fed govt chose the security firms, so own it
Bullshit ...
He has to go. This guys loves Covid-19. Has used this time to deflect all the issues he has caused. Contaminated tunnel soil, metro trains congestion’s, quarantine just to name a few.

Losing traction now – you can keep trying BUT the jig is up. IStandWithDan ✌️😎 ThisisNotJournalism
You and your 'journalists' want details! us in iso don't give a shit at this stage. The answers will come out. Why don't you stop the crap and get behind Victoria for a change? Surely Murdoch would give you a break from 'Kill Dan'.
Is CharisChang2 an abydocomist?
Here to contribute to the ratio, i've said enough about your unproductive, subpar germalism. Got outta hereeeee.
Nope! Quite the opposite.
A song to support Victoria and Dan the Man through this crisis.
This is all politically motivated, to take the heat off the Ruby Princess fiasco. Where is Dutton ?
Also BoycottMurdochMedia
DannyMcNorthFace ' doesn't know ' !!!!
IStandWithDan
Criticism of Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is growing from the Liberal Party, and Journalists? CharisChang2
Dishing it out to a leader ready to own the outcome from a very ethical approach to getting answers... makes you look bad not him. He has owned the scrutiny and told your team repeatedly he will remain at arms length to the judicial enquiry. Click bait looks bad on you.
The criticism should continue.
IStandWithDan I wouldn't like to imagine if the other politicians were at the helm. Dan is an honest, decent man trying his damnedest to do his best by us.
For god sake people The premier has been fronting the media every day to keep us informed this COVID thing is unprecedented we all have tried to stay safe if punishing the premier gets your rocks off so be it. Let him keep doing his job for US with all the others behind him.
Do some research then try again.
DictatorDan CedarAndrews DeadlyDan DanMadeDisaster ResignDanielAndrews resignDanAndrews
He deserved criticism for issues far bigger than Covid19. He’s a 🦠!
You should be deeply ashamed to call yourself journalists. Step up, do you job, and start scrutinising the Federal Government!
This destruction of the economy makes no sense . It is totally pointless. One super spreader and we are back to square one . How are we allowing this to happen? This madness has to end .
Who writes this nonsense? IStandWithDan
Look i don't think he responsible for the stupid dickheads in his state or their assctions including the current situation happening atm.
The only criticism of answers is media. The is an inquiry. Let it finish its job. If security firms are in breach of contract, do you want them slandered without evidence so they can sue. Live in the real world!!!
It's not a court case so he can answer questions as Jennifer Coate said. I want him to answer questions for the next 12 mths of how many suicides, kids on street, job loss, cancer deaths etc due to his crazy reaction. Actually, no i don't, I want him out
Andrews and everyone involved with the containment of the virus need to be charged for negligence of duty of care resulting in death!!!!!
They are intentionally withholding the medical drugs that would cure most of these people. Never forget, this is all political now and clearly they need these daily deaths for the cause
the ol':'let's focus on the Solution, not the problem' trick that seeks to avoid culpability & responsibility typically fascist.
Poor bastard is trying his best to fix this Pandemic shit storm, don’t hear anyone else putting up some decent ideas....
No one is frustrated but the media, constantly badgering this poor guy! He could not have controlled the guards! The inquest should point to the business that was employed not the govt!
So looking forward to your detailed analysis of Scott Morrison’s and Peter Dutton’s media interventions over the last week 🤭🤫
Federal government contracts out these security guards and these were the ones recommended to Dan Andrews from Morrison's government. It's Morrison who doesn't want that revealed !!
Dan probably made a few mistakes along the way but overall I really respect the effort that this guy is putting in and hope he can see it through. The last thing we need is a change of who’s in charge.
Ask the PM, it’s his responsibility.
Only criticism is from Murdoch's minions. Get real stop printing lies. BoycottMurdochMedia
What a distortion. That headline is a complete falsehood. There is an enquiry happening, right now, into the quarantine. He would prejudice the findings by commenting. He has never resisted answering the questions. He answers what he can. Pathetic. Go back to journalism school
It’s the subject of an enquiry
Does this make it a bit easier for you to understand? The only pressure is coming from you muppets.
IStandWithDan
IStandWithDan
Yes it's a big mistake but they are working 24/7 to fix it. It's not the time to blame but for us the Victorian to be united.
Criticism from the bloodhounds? The media dogs that want to cause anger, divide and anxiety? For the first time in a long time, they have an opportunity to bring everyone together and help us band together and get us through, but obviously that's not within their toxic culture...
stage 4 is tough but it is turning covid19 around, and i am confident Victoria will totally eliminate the virus. totally!! DanielAndrewsMP did not want to put Victorians through this hardship is why he initially went for a stage 3 lockdown but that was not enough.
ThisisNotJournalism
That's the Alp/greens for you.
what happened happened. let's go forwards now. we have a lot to do to get a handle on things right now. this guy DanielAndrewsMP is the best leader to have leading right now. IStandWithDan
Murdoch trash. IStandWithDan
The more you push this agenda the more damage your doing to Murdoch & the Liberal Coalition. Be careful!!
IStandWithDan
Please Andrews don’t kill us.
He isn’t resisting calls. He’s got bigger things to do at the moment and he has already said that once they find out he is ultimately responsible. Read between the lines guys. Now isn’t the time to lynch the guy. Murdoch needs to go
Oh ffs. From people employed by News no doubt. Do bugger off.
Bannon: Hydroxychloroquine is a hill that we're going to die on If we don't get it out prophylactically and as a therapeutic, you can't reopen rationally WarRoomPandemic CCPVirus
No... it isn't.
And this article is exactly why no one listens to journalists any more. Full of Murdoch media right wing bias and no impartial journalism what so ever.
Growing criticism within shrill Murdoch publications. Wow, quite the groundbreaking news story that. 🙄
Straight into the bin. More steaming hot garbage from CharisChang2
Thinking DanielAndrewsMP should suffer the same fate as our other leaders who have made major COVID19 stuff ups Namely ScottMorrisonMP, PeterDutton_MP and GladysB AusPol
Ok not saying he shouldn't be held accountable BUT how about right now we focus on what's currently happening and not something he cannot change IStandWithDan
