Just how corrupt was the Morrison government?


If comparing to the Andrew’s government , about 1 out of 10

The Bjelke-Peterson government was less corrupt than the Andrews government.... :shh

Victorian opposition leader endorsed by Jeff Kennett.

https://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/former-victorian-premier-jeff-kennett-confident-opposition-leader-john-pesutto-can-win-government/news-story/f6b9bf583d47bb857bdcc8d6287aab5b


Former Liberal premiers have thrown their support behind Opposition Leader John Pesutto, and say they’re confident he can lead the party to government.

Amid ongoing internal tensions that continue to destabilise Mr Pesutto’s leadership they say it is time for the party to unite behind him.

“While people may question John’s leadership, he is the leader, he is entitled to expect the support of the entire party,” Jeff Kennett said.

“And for those who argue or question his ability, can I remind you that when we won in 1992, we had been constructively attacking the government.

“We had developed our policies quite clearly and distinctly. I was not, as leader of the party, more popular than the premier.

“People weren’t voting for me. Governments lose, opposition’s don’t win. That will be the case at the next election.

“It’s not about whether John is popular or not, in my opinion, it’s about whether he and the team prove themselves to be worthy, to be united, and to have the blueprint for how they are going to manage the state.”

Mr Potato-Head has to go but who would replace him.

https://www.theage.com.au/politics/federal/dutton-bypassed-indigenous-crime-prevention-for-safety-grants-in-coalition-seats-20230806-p5du9d.html

Peter Dutton blocked high-priority crime prevention grants for Indigenous communities as Home Affairs Minister in favour of less-worthy projects found to have favoured Coalition seats and which included protecting “expensive bowling greens”.

Victorian Liberals are in Turmoil.

https://www.theage.com.au/cbd/liberal-party-s-father-daughter-act-feeling-the-heat-from-cookers-20230808-p5duy3.html

The civil war inside the Victorian Liberal Party shows no signs of letting up. The latest skirmish was in the headlines at the weekend after sitting MP Renee Heath attended an event hosted by anti-lockdown and anti-vaccination activist Morgan Jonas, who also happens to be the founder of the Freedom Party of Victoria.
