Vic How would you rate Daniel Andrews' performance as Victorian Premier?

[Ratts of Tobruk]

I think Jascave works for a mainstream media outlet.

Opinion polls
change leaders
rinse
lather
repeat

Haha - I also find his posting oddly robocall like. Maybe a polling company?

 

[Jascave]

Just when the Andrews Government is looking forward to Christmas, the RTBU v Metro war flares up again. And the timing of the latest blowup could not have been worse, just three days before the biggest period of the year for public transport users, Christmas/Boxing Day/New Year's Eve.

Costello's star hasn't exactly shone bright post politics, and his record as Treasurer is diminishing with each passing year.

lol, Swan and Hockey are making him look like the messiah

Still neither are anywhere near as bad as Gough, the Vo Rogue of pxssing money up against a wall. Made Hugo Chavez look like John Hewson.

As for Andrews, just a non entity promoted way above his ability. IIRC has not worked a SINGLE day in the private sector. What a surprise

Looks like the good news fairy has dropped in.

But for an un biased opinion, Andrews hasn't excelled nor has he failed, think he is going along quietly in the background with some of his promises coming to fruition over the Xmas holidays.

No real disasters despite your wishful thinking.

Sometimes its an advantage if the politicians keep out of things. Tas premier Hodgeman has done sweet FA down here, still things are slowly improving. The falling $A is the only thing thats save the states & the country so far. Pollies still claim they are on the right track.

Claim all the successes & blame everyone else for the problems. What a farce!

Hopefully can be re-elected on performance, which seems to be to the benefit of most Victorians. Failing that, they could always just run on matthew the planning guy's monumental *ups, where he seems to have been both corrupt and incompetent. normally you just chose one

Storm in a teacup the latest issue.

Another rort by the CFEMU will dictate whether Andrews is serving his union mates or the people of Victoria.

1/10 has wasted shitloads of tax payer money to not build a tunnel. Created a useless and unnecessary public holiday and gave huge pay increases to the public sector.

Seems to be stacking up in the bushfire/disaster testing

One wonders if malc will be flying down to shed some crocodile tears over his peers losing their third homes in wye river

You mean he honoured his pre-election commitments??

Shame on him..

Wasn't his pre election statement the contract wasn't worth the paper it was written on then proceeded to pay out billions

It was the sneaky little side letter by the Libs that did the damage.

Once he learned of the legalities it was moronic not to proceed

Would have been moronic to build the thing that was going to lose multiple billions for years into the future.

It is a required utility. I would much rather we have a much needed piece of infrastructure than pay billions of dollars for nothing

And break a promise?
Did you ever see the costings and return per dollar on the project?
Read up on it because you don't seem to know much about it.

Not according to the business case - state would have gained 45 cents in benefit for every dollar spent. Waste of money.

Who did the cost benefit analysis?

Libs didn't release much of the financial benefits/costs.

Have you actually done any analysis on any other infrastructure project to look at the comparable cost benefit analysis or just rely on an incredibly basic headline number printed by the left leaning age

The cost benefit analysis was commissioned by the libs whilst still in government, the source that reports on the findings does not change the findings.

The numbers didn't stack up.

 

[Elroo]

Who did the cost benefit analysis?

The previous LNP government.

They should have started on the western section of the link as its CBA was >1 and rated as the superior part of the entire E/W link.

Yes Infrastructure Australia has a full list of Infrastructure projects and provides the CBA of each project and also lists them in an order of priority.
