It’s no secret that Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has been struggling in recent weeks, months even.
Premier Daniel Andrews.
His government has started to look decidedly messy.
On Spring Street, it’s also no secret that Andrews has a big problem with getting his message through to the commercial media.
So there he was on Gold 104.3 this morning chatting and laughing his way through a bunch of questions jammed between Simon and Garfield and the Beatles or whatever was being played.
But credit where it’s due, the DJs did ask about East West Link and whether it would get the go-ahead by Infrastructure Victoria, the independent body that seems to think
the road might be a good idea.
Andrews played Switzerland on the issue, declaring that independent bodies tend to be independent.
Then again, he is the bloke who threw more than $1 billion away when he junked the road project after winning office in 2014.
As he was speaking, the traffic was jammed all across Melbourne. Nice one, Premier.
