Daniel Andrews grilled from all sides ahead of state electionVictorian Premier Daniel Andrews has faced a media barrage today after being grilled on the anti-corruption watchdog's probes into his government and over a 2013 car crash that left a teen severely injured. On Friday, Mr Andrews dismissed questions surrounding the amount of IBAC probes into his state Labor government, saying, the work of the anti-corruption watchdog 'is a matter for them'. Mr Andrews also said his government holds regular dialogue with all of the state's integrity agencies. 'That's principally conducted between the attorney-general as the first law officer and those agencies – and that's why the budget for these agencies has increased enormously,' he said during a media conference in Melbourne. Presumable Sky News Australia has a subscription to the Herald-Sun? 'The detail of the incident suggests it was actually Meuleman who was in the wrong — the Herald Sun included a map that indicated Catherine Andrews took a right turn in her Ford Territory' Why did ndrews family make no contact with hospital to inquire how the injured boy was - probably had a hangover Lol drips not happy when Chairman is asked questions on integrity and corruption, if he was liberal they'd be upset not enough questions were asked lol tolerant left

Thousands of animals dead, at least 120,000 hectares of crops lost in Victorian floodsThe state government estimates about 12,000 farming properties have been affected. That should help inflation. 🙄 Excellent. This will ensure only the elite can afford food especially with Albos cost of living crisis making it so Aussies can’t afford to eat It'll be OK now... Dan built 28 dog parks, and if re-elected he'll build 28 more. Dog parks will save the flood victims. And not to mention the fact that brothels can be run near schools now. Like BAM!
