McCrann has long been a journalist with a heavy right wing slant.

I’m sure he’s fair and balanced, as is Fox News.

It got to the point long ago that any expectation of accurate reporting and a genuine both sides analysis from his stable was totally futile and hopelessly naive.

If any “journo” wants to have any credibility they should refrain from calling the democratically elected leader of the state as a dictator.

Agree...Megalomaniac is a far better description, Dictator tends to legitimise his right to absolute power.

Someone quoted Terry McCrann  ;D

Andrews had us Victorians  in debt before CoVid and his latest budget is just the man in the street paying for it as per usual.
Using payroll tax to pay off debt is old school economics where big business just pass on the cost to the consumer.
Companies like Wesfarmers will just raise their prices so we all pay more for everyday items , high fee charging private schools now hit with payroll tax will raise their fees sending some kids back to a already over crowded public system.
Disposable incomes in Victoria are now  around seventh out of the eight states.
It's been an unsustainable ponzi economy based on high debt, high immigration numbers fuelling business and poor exports. I'd expect Andrews to do a Hardwick and bail sometime in the future because times are about to get real tough for Victorians...
