It all depends on perspective. As for the previously quoted analogy, arsonists start fires knowing full well they will create damage.
COVID has caught most of the world off-guard.
No doubt Andrews et al screwed up on the hotel quarantine thing (NSW Gov was damn close with Ruby Princess....), but they're certainly not alone in COVID screw-ups across the globe.
But instead of swanning off with his fat-cat pollie pension like most would do, Andrews has fronted up to the media every single day since and stared the naysayers in the face. Whichever way you look at it, that shows some backbone, which is something sadly lacking in most of our 'leaders'.
If Andrews had gone (like many suggested) when it went pear-shaped, I have no doubt we would be royally f***ed by now.
Let's deal with the problem at hand, and worry about the fallout later.

This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?
