Trump should take a leaf out of Dan Andrews book.

When you have a press conference you answer every question with a lie

What a stupid thing to say. Honestly you far right idiots are beyond the pale sometimes.

Thats a serious criminal matter. You should be investigated by the cops.

aarg yes when it suits you then lets drum up the other side. Lets head back to the bushfire fiasco shall well. I recall you refuse to acknowledge who was in charge of Black Saturday, that but went to town on a guy who made the wrong choice to go to hawaii for a few days, and has no real bearing on state issues. You have a history of picking only one side, lets be honest.


Sorry Frankie you and I both know when I was talking about the job Andrews was doing I was talking about the pandemic

The only reason I bough up the "other side" as you call it is because that is exactly you did over the ScoMo and sports grant rort

Now again you bring up (again) something else to divert away from the current discussion but I will none the less indulge you

Back Saturday - Brumbie was premier not Andrews. A royal commission has proved that although the response to the fires was acceptable (I don't totally agree with that BTW) the events and practices that led to state being in the condition it was that basically meant the state was catastrophe in waiting (like the majority of Aust I might add) is clear in it's findings. The govts of the day stuffed up - that's governments at all levels

Clear enough?

ScoMo deserves every whack that comes his way for not being here last Nov/Dec. What you don't wish to acknowledge is his office lied about it, that is the worst part of it... and ScoMo allowed it

Rorting lying stealing its all bad, no matter who is involved and a royal commission into the Victorian Libs will bring more of their lies.

You seem to have changed your tune just a tad about rorting??? You were not this outraged when the Sports Grant rorting came to light

And to be honest i have no idea what you are talking about "a royal commission into the Victorian Libs will bring more of their lies"???

Quote

There is only only Premier who said this.

"I will not sit down, never sit down and negotiate with people who refuse to call out denigration of women.”

can we get your views on that now?

The Victoria Liberals are a mess and the fish rots at the top. He needs to come out today and sack all those involved for a start then look himself in the mirror

I think you mean Victorian Labor although you are correct the Victorian Libs are in a mess  :snidegrin. Abolsute joke of a party

I don't need to give my views because ....

And guess what he did, Sacked him and he has been kicked out of the Labor party... 9am this morning

As for the language used by the charming ex Minister - don't think I need to make any comment.... though I did have chuckle as some of the homophobic and sexist comments made on this forum over the years have been just as bad 

He has been referred to IBAC & the Vic Police. IBAC is an independant body so let's just see what happens next.

So you shot the poor bastard and here I was thinking you were animal loving hippie of the left. Youve disappointed me now. Cockatoo are great birds. Maybe you should get another one and teach him the theme song song.

When you have a press conference you answer every question with a lie

I take it you listened to the presser then?

I would expect nothing else from you but saying the Premier was lying; that's your choice

But I think you are missing the key point here

That presser went for over an hour.

He answered every single question ...

He didn't shut down the presser...

Point is this...if ScoMo doesn't like the line of questioning on any topic (eg Sports grant rort saga) he shuts the presser down and walks off. He refuses to answer... especially when he actually gets caught out lying like he has been with this sports rort affair (and that's not my opinion that's coming from numerous media outlets)

Now whether you believe the answer the fact remains the presser wasn't shutdown

VCE English. I don't think so. Not unless your teacher hated you.
