Vic Who should replace Daniel Andrews as Victorian Labor leader?

[Frank Bunn]

Pretty much everyone agrees he should go - as a result of the hotel quarantine shambles that resulted in 800 deaths, and the subsequent cover up.

The question is - who should replace him? Will it be one of Andrew's current senior cabinet, like Neville or Pakula, who may be tainted by the findings of the Coate inquiry. Or will it be a more cleanskin, such as Merlino or Pallas, who can put the health disasters aside and pretend they never happened?

 

[Father Jack]

Yes, they should get rid of the bloke polling at around 70%, pretty much everyone thinks that.

I love Dan. Victoria loves him too, deal with it.

You left it once? Wimbledon clap for you.

Anyhoo, back on track.

again, for the 875324875328th time, I expect Andrews to resign, Pallas and Neville to be backbenched or demoted

Ive lost count how many times Ive said i expect andrews to be the final scalp in this saga

ive already posted more times than i can remember that i think andrews should and will be the last to leave

and your point is? i am one person, and I havent hidden my beliefs or allegiances around here unlike some

if you have an issue with me personally, out with it

Then clearly he is part of the 30%.

I have no issue with you. Father Jack is implying Andrews won't be stepping down because of his popularity rating.

Are you trying to avoid the topic?

There’s not a chance he’s stepping down, silly to think otherwise.

Where does this come from? You can’t just make things up and pretend it’s fact

I would hope the mods don't let this board be filled with threads that are just low energy trolls.

I'm implying that most people think he's doing a good job and thus don't want him to step down, and therefore your premise as laid out in the OP is faulty.

You made me the topic.

So, what's the issue you have with me?

If one Labor member reckons Dan Andrews should go that is pretty good evidence everyone does

 

[Jascave]

In retrospect, Jenny Mikakos should’ve announced a leadership challenge against Daniel Andrews the day after Andrews threw her under the bus while giving evidence at the Coates hotel quarantine inquiry.

with support from who? the only person backing her is the guy who got booted from the party for branch stacking

Is that a joke? Nobody knifes from the inside like the ALP. There wouldn't be a point in history where a good 20% of the ALP wanted a Labor premier replaced.

If there's a sniff of blood, a faction will get the knife into Andrews before the electorate will have the chance.

There are two times the knife might come from inside. When you're well ahead on polls and plotters think a knifing can't hurt enough to lose power and when you're behind in the polls.

When you're only just ahead, that's when you're safe from internal attack.

The fact that an opposing faction was exposed for branch-stacking has given Andrews a bit of breathing space, but there's never a lot of breathing space in the factional ALP.

I think he is only referencing you as an example of a labor supporter who has expressed the view that Andrews should step down (which I agree with) in order to make a point to the other poster that the current high popularity rating should not be a guide as to whether DA goes or not.

Jill Hennessy. I know she is on the outer, but she has good pedigree and is untarnished by the events of the past 12+ months
