Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has urged Victorians to “keep following the rules” as the state is “so close” to moving towards a "really big step". Melburnians woke this morning under eased restrictions after the Andrews government lifted the controversial curfew across the city as part of a dump of easing some coronavirus measures.
“Keep doing the right thing, keep making that profound and critical contribution to these numbers getting low and staying low," he said. “If we continue to make smart choices, then we will see this thing off. If, however, any of us, and it can be very small numbers, if we start doing things that we know deep down are not the right thing to do, then we can put at risk everything that we've built, everything that Victorians have given.
DanielAndrewsMP Dan Andrews wants to be remembered as our saviour. But he will only be remembered for the failed hotel quarantine program.Which was entrusted to his mob, which in turn has decimated Victoria and led to many Victorians loosing their lives.
DanielAndrewsMP Rubbish premier Andrews, tell the truth about this so called global pandemic, tell us that 99% of people have no or only mild symptoms and this has been the biggest act of vandalism ever perpetuated on this country.
DanielAndrewsMP Is Dan resigning the big step? If not it a very little step. Resign Dan Andrews. You are a disgraceful liar.
DanielAndrewsMP It's amazing the premier is urging people to follow the rules, when his title is the honorable premier Mr Andrews, he falls way short of his title, holds highest office in state and doesn't find it dishonorable to lie, mismanage and Lord knows what other sinister deeds, disgrace
DanielAndrewsMP Dan is going to give out free lollipops..,......Yay 🥰
DanielAndrewsMP The next big step for you daniel is the MAP. Melbourne Assessment Prison. And yes it's really soon aswell. FH.
DanielAndrewsMP If daily cases remain 5 or below the distance you can travel will increase to 6 kms and a further one km each month until the next election. If they go above 5 everything will revert to 5 kms and you start again.
DanielAndrewsMP DonMustGo
DanielAndrewsMP WTH..the only step Dan has to take is to 'step down' resign.
DanielAndrewsMP Big step would be all to resign from this lying memory loss government. That would be the first big step and to leave the innocent alone and stop putting fear into people. 2 wave erupted because of failed government.
DanielAndrewsMP Hope it’s the “really big step” of ResignDanielAndrews

Victoria is now the welfare state due to ‘scandalously stupid’ Andrews decisions | Sky News AustraliaVictoria has become the welfare state thanks to the “scandalously stupid decisions” of the Daniel Andrews government, according to Sky News host Rita Panahi.\n\nVictoria’s second wave has so far claimed over 780 lives with 99 per cent of cases linked back to the failures of hotel quarantine which was put in the hands of untrained security guards.\n\nThe state’s death rate per million of the population is 116, a number far higher than the rest of Australia’s rate of less than five per million.\n\nMs Panahi said Victoria has become the “welfare state” because it is now receiving 60 per cent of all JobKeeper payments even though it only amounts to 25 per cent of the population.\n\nIt comes as Victorian Health Minister Jenny Mikakos resigned from her post following the premier identifying her as the person responsible for the hotel quarantine program.\n\nPremier Daniel Andrews fronted the COVID-19 Melbourne Hotel Quarantine Inquiry on Friday and laid part of the blame of the debacle directly at the feet of Ms Mikakos, prompting her resignation the next day.\n\nThere has been a “systematic coverup” which has seen senior bureaucrats, ministers, and the premier all claim under oath that they themselves were not responsible for the “disastrous decision” to use private security guards, but also that they don’t know who was, Ms Panahi said.\n\n“The collective amnesia of the Victorian government and bureaucracy is further proof that this lot are treating the Victorian public like we're gullible mugs who'll believe anything no matter how fanciful or absurd,” she said.\n\n“The premier is fond of saying that the buck stops with him.\n\n“Well premier in the real world that means you hand in your resignation for overseeing the biggest public policy disaster in Victorian history.”\n DanielAndrewsMP RitaPanahi This warning about the welfare state brought to you by a channel broadcast exclusively on a network which received $40 million in government funding in recent years.
