"The worst kept corruption secret in Victoria has suddenly confronted those responsible for allowing it to fester, the Vic Labor state government, who are bedmates with the major corruptor the CFMEU and John Setka.
Andrews, Allan, Pallas et al have nowhere to hide. The Labor ecosystem in Victoria is an insisious cesspool of close relationships, protection and putting money into Labor pockets.
What everybody needs to remember is that the unions who are benefiting represent just 10% of the workforce. That means 90% of Victorian workers are being shafted whilst 10% get all the benefits and many because of corrupt practices."

I don't live in Victoria, but I have been following what people like you have been saying for several years about some of the issues there.

You have obviously been very outspoken about the mismanagement of the state's resources, so much so that initially I thought you might be embellishing to a degree, but I have to eat humble pie today, because you have been proven to be correct in your pessimistic assessment of the way the state of Victoria has been governed over the past decade.

The chickens are certainly returning to the roost, and one can't help feeling that it gets worse before it gets better.

But where I am in disagreement with you is in your sentiment of, "The Labor cancer in Victoria needs to be voted out in November 2026."

I can't see why another party should be installed to fix the parlous finances of the state. Taking on the job of governing Victoria is a poisoned chalice. Let those that created the mess try to sort it out.

Victoria's s interest bill approaching one billion dollars a month before too long means that it is going to a painful period ahead. It took a decade to get to this point; objectively, it is going to take a better part of a decade to reverse the process.

There's a Swahili saying: "Let the dogs return to their vomit".
Sounds most apposite in this case.

Unfortunately it is going to get worse well before it gets better.

I do not trust Labor (those that caused the massive problems) to fix the problem and therefore the only option is to give the Liberals an opportunity to fix the mess, despite it being a poisoned chalice.

One can only speculate as to why Daniel Andrews resigned 10 months into a four year term, despite promising during the election, to serve a full term.
