The Premier’s visit to Western Victoria over the weekend was completely tone-deaf. Hear what locals had to say firsthand about her staged appearance.
Farmers suffering from years of drought are facing increasing taxes in the form of a misleading fire lexy tax designed to raise more money to support a large infrastructure programme benefiting Melbourne.
As one Twitter reader said online:
TIME TO RESIGN ALLAN, YOU HAVE NO CONCEPT OF WHAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY DOING AS PREMIER, YOU HAVE NO CONNECTION AT ALL TO ALL VICTORIANS, YOU ARE A DISGRACE AND AN EMBARRASMENT TO OUR PARLIAMENT, QUITE FRANKLY, YOU ARE INCOMPETENT.
There have been protests in Melbourne over the tax changes that will cripple those who can least afford it and they are the people putting food on our table.
Most recently it was alleged the Victoria Government deliberately stopped V/Line trains from the regional areas in an attempt to reduce the number of protestors attending the rally.
Definitely a lot of work to do prior to the next election.
