Bob we get zero coverage of Victorian domestic politics in NSW and I suspect there is very little if any public interest in your internal political squabbles  here, just as average Victorians glaze over when ICAC is mentioned.

And Victorians themselves indeed glaze over more so when the Member for Kew's comments, fueled as they are by inexorable personal ambition, are reported by the Murdoch press.  Ermm

PT, That is an interesting observation, internal state domestic politics has little interest outside that individual state. What I cannot comprehend if that is the case, why has the US Presidential created so many attention on TBV ? Last time I looked there were 150 pages on the Trump Presidency.
Personally, I am US "Electioned Out."

We used to see Mr Smith weekly on ABC News Breakfast doing his regular news of the day segment at 6:50AM, as a former very young Mayor and aspiring MP. He seemed so normal then.

Given that SC is, according to some, "gender doubtful",  you might allow your correspondent the possibility of being Lucy ! Tongue

The ABC gives everyone an opportunity to make comment, even the overly ambitious Smith, however the tyro gets far more coverage on Sky.

ps since we're into questions, are you sure you are not a d1ckhe@d?

Stupid questions such as Bob's Turnbull one inevitably attract equally stupid replies.  And am more than happy to acknowledge that reality.

Dan Andrews confidence has no boundaries.This evening he rang Stephen Marshall, the SA premier, to offer any advice he might need to combat the outbreak  of coronavirus in Adelaide.

Dan Andrews is up and going on his election sweeteners in preparation for his re-election in 2022.

Under present Victorian legislation casual workers receive a 30% loading to their wage for forgoing annual leave and sick pay entitlements , now Dan is proposing, under a pilot scheme , that sick pay and annual leave should be introduced as entitlements for casual workers in "priority industries ". Whilst the pilot scheme will be government funded any full time scheme will be a levy on employers.

More a matter of support for the most vulnerable workers in society than an election sweetener one would've thought.

Also casual workers working several jobs have been a problem during the pandemic, so this is a good way of reducing that

Earlier today I was accused by Djebel of being divisive, if that is the case what does he think of Daniel Andrews ? Last  Friday Daniel Andrews ripped into Margaret Court, claiming her views on same-sex marriage were “disgraceful, hurtful  and cost lives'.  The same criticism might be applied to his government’s handling of quarantine hotel that cost 801 lives, but Andrews conveniently ignores that appalling statistic on his administration.
BTW whose lost lives can be attributed to Margaret Court  ?

Another divisive thread.

Those lost lives can mostly be attributed to your mate Scotty.
