Sky News host Peta Credlin says every Victorian who has lost their job, business or someone they love has a right to the truth of what happened in the state’s failed hotel quarantine program, not the “half-truths out of this underdone inquiry”.

Ms Credlin said she was told the Victorian Government chose to reject the use of ADF personnel in hotel quarantine at the start because “it would look like they had failed”. “They didn’t like the optics of the Morrison Government bailing them out,” she said. People know that between 12 and 2pm on Friday March 27, a decision was taken to go with private security and to then reject the ADF, according to Ms Credlin.

Why did he appoint a family court judge Why not a judge that is competent in criminal or forensic types of cases .. this tribunal have lost all credibility.

Peta lay off the booze

The truth is Scotty started quarantine in January, found it to be a bit too much work, handballed to the States in March and they were required to implement in very short time systems and processes.

Not a fan of Peta, BUT, reporter or not she knows what to ask and how to ask it!

MatthewGuyMP Peta Credlin is an absolute legend! Brilliant work

Blame, acuse, hate. Can Sky News do something else?

go for it Peta! We’re all behind you. Dan is the scalp everyone wants

800deathsDan

How about all the deaths in your mates run nursing homes not interested as it is your mates you have an agenda against andrews you want to be careful he does not take you to court for slander

Youre a national treasure Peta. This is in no doubt criminal.

But they deserve the absolute bullshit that Credless dishes up?

800 families who have lost loved ones, thousands their business or jobs undertake a class action. Seek a right to proceed from the courts against poor, dodgy decisions of the govt ministers responsible.Any damages paid not from us taxpayers yet again though from their assets

How’s the form on these twit commentators against Credlin?! Socialism is now so ingrained it’s frightening. It’ll be interesting to see if reality kicks in when the money that supports them runs out. Meanwhile, some of us will keep trying to run businesses employing people!

We all know the truth, but where is the justice DanLiedPeopleDied

The whole bloody country needs our incompetent government to own up to all the death and economic destruction they have caused, but you can bet not a single one of them will have the spine to do it.

So she's having more verbal diarrhoea? Thanks for the sewage sky

Massive criminal charges and class actions coming

MatthewGuyMP

Like all states used security guards, some states had breaches. ADF were used for logistics Two security guards at the Sydney Harbour Marriott have so far tested positive for Covid-19, one was fined twice by police for breaching his self-isolation requirements on two occasions.

You can't handle the truth. You are in a Murdoch funded campaign to deflect and confuse. The right to the truth? Get your teeth into Aged care and the Liberals...

Not addressing the scale of sexual assaults in aged care then? It’s almost as if you have an agenda.

Peta Credlin ‘does what good journalists do’ | Sky News AustraliaThe Australian’s Gerard Henderson says Peta Credlin does what good journalists do, and the division between being a commentator rather than a journalist is a very artificial division.\n\nIt comes as Sky News host Peta Credlin came under scrutiny for being a commentator rather than a journalist after grilling Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews in multiple press conferences, contributing to the reopening of the Inquiry into Melbourne’s bungled hotel quarantine program.\n\n“I think journalism is what journalists do,” Mr Henderson told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.\n\n“Peta Credlin’s a presenter, she’s a broadcaster, she’s a columnist and she turns up now at press conferences in Melbourne and asks good questions of Premier Daniel Andrews which appear to irritate him – that’s usually a good sign.\n\n“That’s what good journalists do, it’s a very artificial division these days between who’s a journalist and who’s not a journalist.\n\n“It’s just as well there’s been some News Corp. involvement here otherwise the tax payers of Australia and the tax payers of Victoria wouldn’t even have a clue of what’s going on.”\n A rare commodity nowadays a real journalist, sad really. But that's because Gerard Henderson is a muppet.

Inquiry into Victoria's hotel quarantine 'doesn't have that desire to uncover truth' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Rita Panahi says the inquiry into Victoria’s hotel quarantine “just doesn’t have that desire to uncover the truth that you would expect a board of inquiry to have.”\n\nHer comments come after the inquiry into Victoria's failed hotel quarantine program held an extraordinary hearing on Tuesday to unravel conflicting evidence.\n\nChief Health Officer Brett Sutton has come under increasing pressure to produce a coherent narrative after he testified before the inquiry saying he had nothing to do with the hotel quarantine scheme and specifically was not aware private security guards were being used until July. \n\nEmails from the department of health indicate he was aware potentially as early as May and is likely to be hauled back before the inquiry to provide further evidence.\n\nMr Sutton has been asked to submit an affidavit as the hotel quarantine inquiry seeks an explanation as to why key emails weren't tendered.\n\nThe inquiry on Tuesday “was something better than what we’ve seen in recent weeks,” Ms Panahi said. \n\n“They’re close to doing their job. \n\n“It just doesn’t have that desire to uncover the truth that you would expect a board of inquiry to have.\n\n“There’s plenty of people who should be called back.\n\n“And when they’re there, they should be questioned forensically and strongly, not just have their statements read back to them and have them agree with it.”\n RitaPanahi RitaPanahi spot on as always.

‘Getting to the truth’ of Victoria’s catastrophic failures is ‘all that matters’: Peta Credlin | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Peta Credlin says “getting to the truth is all that matters” as further revelations surface about evidence which should have been provided to the Coate Inquiry into Victoria’s catastrophic hotel quarantine failures.\n\n“It goes to the heart of how serious this inquiry is about finding out the truth, how serious this government is about telling the truth,” Ms Credlin said.\n\n“Now whether yesterday’s extraordinary hearing and it’s demand for more evidence by affidavit not oral testimony … is the start of this inquiry finally doing their job that every Victorian demands they do.\n\n“Or is it just another step to give the appearance of effort when in fact it’s still headed for the same whitewashed result that I feared a couple of weeks ago when I turned up to the premier’s daily press conference for the first time.”\n\nMs Credlin said the phone records which she pushed Premier Andrews to concede on camera he and his senior officials would hand over if the inquiry was to request them, “set in train this whole recent series of events”.\n\n“And out of it, finally we might start to get this inquiry to do what it should have been doing from day one, searching for the truth about who knew what, who did what, and why.\n\n“Yesterday’s Sutton emails? Well they show that he knew about the use of private security back on the 27th of March, the same day as the National Cabinet decision, even though he’s told Coate in sworn evidence he didn’t know about private security at all until months and months later.\n\n“But it’s what else is in these emails that Sutton got and exchanged that’s interesting.\n\n“The emails confirm that after the prime minister offered ADF support to establish this system of hotel quarantine … the Sutton emails show that Victoria knocked back ADF support the very day the PM offered it.\n\n“The premier likes to say that if he had known about the PM’s offer – he said this in his evidence to Coate – he might have acted differently, but he did know, DavidDavisMLC That's what the enquiry is PetaCredlin The last person to listen when “getting to the truth is all that matters”.
