Victorian Health Minister JillHennessyMP says she will hold herself accountable for any mistakes made going forward in her new position.

Victorian Health Minister Jill Hennessy says she will hold herself accountable for any mistakes made going forward in her new position. Ms Hennessy was appointed as the state’s health minister following the resignation of former health minister Jenny Mikakos.

When probed during the inquiry into Melbourne’s bungled hotel quarantine program – which was held responsible for Victoria’s deadly second wave - several officials in the Andrews government denied responsibility for choosing to use security guards. Asked whether she would be willing to accept responsibility for any mistakes moving forward, Ms Hennessey said she was ultimately accountable and didn’t “shy from my responsibilities”.

Former Victorian top cop raises concerns over Andrews' omnibus bill | Sky News AustraliaFormer Victoria Police chief commissioner Kel Glare has criticised Premier Daniel Andrews’ proposed new powers as a “dangerous grab for unfettered power”. \n\nThe 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. \n\nMr 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. \n\nFormer deputy police commissioner Noel Newman has joined Mr Glare in his criticism of the bill. \n\nThe 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. \n\nThe state recorded two new coronavirus deaths overnight with only seven new infections, marking the second time since mid-June that Victoria reported fewer than 10 cases.

Insults, hyperbole 'not a dignified look' for American public discourse | Sky News AustraliaCentre for Independent Studies’ Tom Switzer says the first of the US presidential debates was, in many respects, an indictment of American public discourse.\n\n“It was sound and fury except it was not signifying nothing it was signifying something – and that is a depressing debate spectacle,” Mr Switzer told Sky News host Alan Jones.\n\n“The insults, the interruptions, the hyperbole, endless crossover talks, it was not a dignified look.\n\n“In many respects this was an indictment of American public discourse.”\n ~Poor old Joe, got eaten up by Trump. But trump has no choice. he is out there saving America and indeed the world. He cannot let the demoncrap army get in the way and if Joe is going to go full librtard then he can expect more from Trump. I have just finished watching the full debate. I thought it was a good debate. Some things could have been better. As President Trump pointed out early he was having to debate the moderator as well as Biden so that evened up a bit later on.
