Picture: NCA NewsWire / Luis Ascui

“I know what Daniel Andrews thinks, I’ve been his shadow minister, I’ve been his minister, I’ve been in the branches with him.The former South-Eastern Metropolitan Region MP was sacked from cabinet in mid-2020 over damning allegations of branch stacking and a recording of him using offensive language about a ministerial colleague were made public.

Pity there’s no alternative.

yeh, “unrecognisable” in such a good way L/NP rusted-on's will scream into their pillows

Yeah right 🤮, how did Victoria become the largest economy in Australia again? fakenews

Crook to Sky News hero in a matter of months, and all he needed to do was sling dirt at Dan Andrews.

Yeah nah.

IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan IStandWithDan

“Liberal-free” he means.

Hahaha the “former Labor” disgraced, fired corrupt dude is saying what? More lies ? Of course he is

Promoting a crook Sky going well.

Wow - how much crap 💩 can skynews pump out, far more then any treatment works

Let's hope so, the LNP damaged it pretty bad when they were in, It's taken a lot of work to fix it.

And what would this Murdoch puppet know

Now you are really scrapping the bottom of the barrel. Do you have no shame whatsoever! Don't answer, we already know don't we. IStandWithDan best Premier ever!

MurdochGutterMedia warned MurdochRoyalCommission is on the way!! ThisIsNotJournalism this is Political Propaganda!!

DanMustGo

Were you convicted or not convicted of corruption Adem?

That's a good thing, right? Unrecognisable from what it ever was under the Lib/Nats. Somyurek talking bitter rubbish, again.

PMLIVE HOST PAUL MURRAY IS A LIAR AND CORRUPT FAKE A ANTI LABOR ATTACK DOG PAID BY MURDOCH PAUL MURRAY WILL TELL FAKE LIES AND BS PAUL MURRAY IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE A LIBERAL VOTER AND NO MATTER WHAT LABOR DOES PMLIVE WILL ATTACK EVERY THING THEY DO EVEN PAY RISE FOR NURSERS.

And I bet he's being paid a large sum of money to be spruiking Sky lies and misinformation.

My 40 year old self would call this state unrecognisable already!

Interesting how lacking in standards the LNP is eg there is NO Standard or Penalty AGAINST Branch Stacking in the LNP. No wonder the LNP is so full of self interest groups eg religious fanatics & those that refuse to put Govt Contracts up for Public Tender:

Let's see 👀 what the Victorian Voters say. Then the realisation will become apparent.

IBAC report mentions 'Somyurek' 701 times, details his corrupt behaviour & concludes he engaged in: - 'misuse of staff' - 'improper conduct' - 'breached the Code of Conduct for Ministers and Parliamentary Sectetaries' - 'breached the Members of Parliament Code of Conduct'

At this least he didn’t grab five ministries for himself.

It's a weird line to take. The same government would be more likely to keep things the same... does he expect us to believe Matthew Guy is better able to preserve Dan Andrew's policies?

Just how much has Somyurek received in Backshish to take this stand,is this a Cash for Comment situation?

Tell me the same old story!

Great.

Next up on Sky News, Tony Mokbel, former successful businessman, says something else bad about Dan Andrews who is not accountable despite facing an election, later we get Roberta Williams view on why she is voting for Matt Guy, 'We lunch together sometimes, he pays'

It will have the largest city with the highest-performing economy in Australia.

The guy that was booted for corruption that's your source?

Please take the time to report Sky News Australia for misinformation regarding elections

'powerbroker' HAHAHAHAHAH

New lows from Sky. This bloke is a DISGRACED former Labor politician. He got the arse.

I'm pretty sure the voters understand the impact but support for ideology is bigger on Victorians' minds. And who better than Dan to take VIC to further on left? Now that there is support from federal government also, the journey to far left will speed up. This is Great! RPGuy17

Powerbroker? No, branch stacker..

The former DISGRACED Labor 'power broker' found guilty of corruption you mean? The one Dan kicked out after he was caught branch stacking, THAT Adem? Now why would he have a grudge against Dan...

Imagine how unrecognisable Vic could be if this avenging vindictive rotter runs further. He'll end up consuming himself with his hatred.

From what people tell me, Victoria already is 'unrecognisable.'

Give it a rest Sky you lose yet again this is low clickbait trash!

🥱🥱🥱🥱

How scared must you be?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha Andrew’s the BEST premier in this country by a mile

The SkyNews Criminal Cartel are quoting Adem. Well, that's a good fit!

The disgraced and sacked branch stacker. Possibly he has a grudge against Andrews?

Typical rubbish where the views of a bitter former labor member with zero credibility is given preference as News over Robodebt.

Here a real news story SkyAfterDark

Time for DanielAndrewsMP to face the music!!!!

Somyurek is a grifter who only left the ALP when he was caught paying cash bribes on national TV for branch-stacking operations. Whatever your view on Dan Andrews, if Adem Somyurek is the answer - the question must be pretty stupid.

😂😂😂

Ah yes - Adem Somynyek - paragon of accountability

Vote 1 crook who had a sook. Seriously who would vote for Somyurek. What party is this desperate?

Turkish rorted said 🤮🤣

Victorians really only have themselves to blame.

More nonsense. Start to report the truth and the people may start to believe you again. Since you are a mouthpiece for the LNP (clearly) then this type of nonsense reflects badly on them! Nice way to keep them in opposition for ages!

Bring out your Duds!!!!

These power brokers are also in it for themselves

Credlin backing more rubbish than usual lately .

Daniel Andrews has had ‘horror start’ to election campaignVictorian Premier Daniel Andrews has had “a horror start to the election campaign” as the state election looms ahead this month, says Sky News host Peta Credlin. “Daniel Andrews’ life got a bit more complicated over the weekend, with the publication in the Herald Sun of a photograph of stairs – stairs where he says he had a horror fall that almost took his life,” she said. “The stairs, he called them. But more accurately, two little steps.” Ms Credlin said this “doesn’t quite” add up, “like so many things connected with the Premier”. “When asked about the fall over the weekend, the Premier resorted to his usual combination of stonewalling and mockery, claiming he'd said all there was to say, and then asking journalists whether they wanted to interview the steps. “Up until now, Daniel Andrews has always managed to stare down his opponents, and his critics, but maybe that's starting to change.” Sky News has transformed into the Comedy Channel with this skit 🤣 Horror start 🤔 The media are helping him more than hindering him Well she would day that wouldn't she.

‘Divisive but still popular’: Andrews’ lead slips, Liberals stallDaniel Andrews will lose three to five seats at the November 26 election. However, he will narrowly hold power as support for Liberal leader Matthew Guy stalls. I don’t recall DanielAndrewsMP one of the most smug and arrogant politicians in the country Because MatthewGuyMP is a loner lurking in the shadows. How could you have someone as allegedly corrupt, megalomaniacal, violent, oppressive, ignorant, spendthrift, authoritarian, disingenuous & dictatorial as DanielAndrewsMP and lose! He must be a deep state ?Chinese patsy! Narrowly? If he loses even 5 he's still on 52-53 out of 88. That's hardly narrow.
