mmmm - the full article was available yesterday - but from bolts bit, to the link

Labor should make any voter concerned about the state economy shudder. It is stacked with Trades Hall types; 16 of its front benchers hail from unions.

and

Incredibly, Mr Andrews wants to scrap the Napthine government’s building and construction code of practice, one of the few constraints on union and contractor unlawfulness on government projects. This in itself makes Mr Andrews and Labor not fit to govern. The Productivity Commission has recommended that the code be taken up nationally. Yet Mr Andrews does not have the political spine to stand up to Labor’s trade union bosses over a lawless labour monopoly that is undermining Victoria’s investment climate and job prospects.

.

there is something wrong somewhere - but the majority of people are on a free ride - apparently 60% of taxpayers get a net benefit from the government (after allowing for taxes paid)

We are running out of days but any day now I will meet somebody who is voting Labor.

Then again - that may reflect the sort of people I meet

They will hand Victoria over to the union movement and Emily Listers.
