The Companion of the Order of Australia awarded to former Premier Daniel Andrews must be revoked.
Today, I have launched a petition calling for the support of Victorians to have the inappropriate and unjustified honour removed by the Governor General.
Mr Andrews failed Victorians, and by extension Australians, with his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and we are all still paying the price.
Melbourne was left floundering in lockdown for a total of 262 days – the longest in the world – under Mr Andrews’ draconian laws.
Mr Andrews also oversaw a bungled and ill-conceived hotel quarantine program that cost the lives of almost 800 Victorians.
Victorians have been left to pick up the pieces, now burdened with record debt because Mr Andrews couldn’t manage money.
Since the start of Mr Andrews’ reign as Premier, Labor has slapped Victorians with 55 new or increased taxes and charges.
Under no circumstances should Mr Andrews retain the Companion of the Order of Australia.
