Victorian Labor facing the consequences of ‘years of neglect’

- Redbridge Group Director Kos Samaras says the Victorian Labor Party has historically viewed districts like Werribee as “safe seats”.
The Greens have conceded defeat in the Prahran by-election to Liberal candidate Rachel Westaway, while Premier Jacinta Allan claims the result in Labor's previously safe seat of Werribee shows Victorians dislike the state opposition.
“Their strategy for the last 10 years has been to basically pour billions of dollars into other parts of Melbourne because that’s where the marginal seats were,” Mr Samaras told Sky News host Paul Murray.
“They did too much of that and unfortunately for them, they are now actually copping the consequences of effectively years of neglect.”
Albo and Labor need to be voted OUT.
Jacinta Andrews is history.
😂😂😂😂 that's true
I still can’t believe people still voted Labor in Werribee
That's where the criminals live
As a Victorian I can tell you it is WAY more believable than Dan getting voted back in at the 2022 election.
Can't believe there were yanks who voted for Harris. Go figure.
Victorian voters never learn. Remember Joan Kirner and John Cain?
Yup the idiots that like higher costs of living
This will not bother Albo he is so incompetent he will think it has nothing to do with his ability as Pri minister.
He also believes there is no way he wont win because of the greens support.
We just saw America go through the same incompetent government like we have here and look what happened.
I have notice people that never talk about politics are starting to and the say how bad this Government is.
A Vote for Green is not a vote for the environment its a vote for Labor
Kamala Allen is toast
This is a great result; the Libs winning the Prahran seat. It's my seat; I voted Liberal yesterday, and I'm delighted at the result.. Theoretically a number of other seats in Vic, should be easier to win for the Libs than Prahran... A great sign! Hopefully a strong Liberal swing in the Federal and state elections in Victoria too.. It has to be that way. Normalcy must return to Australia!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍LEBERALS FEDERALL👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Mark Congratulations, I want Peter Dutton to be PM this election👍
I wouldn't be very happy if I lived in a seat where the Green vote is almost 50% two party preferred. I'd be doing anything I could to move out of there.
Greens must be in shock!
When will you guys learn we can't vote for Labor liberals or greens their all socialist parties we have to vote One Nation
Victoria is done. Businesses are leaving or closing. California of the Southern Hemisphere & it’s got bugger all to sell to get out of this debt.
I can see a new govt opening up mining exploration in Vic.
RIP Victoria you're all screwed and you brought it on yourselves 🤣🤣
Those who screwed over Victoria and Victorians deserve what they get.
Don't laugh the federal election is only months away. As we just seen with the hate speech bill Liberals are not the party for the people either. The minor parties and independents just add to the mess with their demands.
Unfair, a lot of us never voted for Dictator Dan and his lackeys.
Well, if you live in Australia, you voted Labor too moron
Congratulations to all the voters who DID NOT VOTE LABOR , and for those who did, shame on you
GOOD BYE Labour!
It's delusional to think that switching your vote to a minor/independent is somehow sending a message to the major parties as, in most cases, your preferences just filter back to them anyway. Preferential voting should be abolished so that you can choose to extinguish your vote at a certain point to deny it going to a candidate that you believe doesn't deserve it.
100% agree. Voluntary preferential voting - you only fill in as many boxes as you wish to.
With no preferences, the labour party still had highest votes of all candidates so they win.
We should all be voting One Nation but everyone is to socialist and tribal
@ One Nation have no genuine solutions or capacity to run a govt.
@ What are you talking about?
Please don't disregard the inner city. There may not be as many sentient conservatives around these leafy streets, but we're here.
Us out here in regional areas get absolutely nothing. Our taxes need to be domiciled, ie, that is spent where it is paid. All the money is spent in the city because thats where the votes are, but we in the country create a lot of wealth for the state too.
And they reward us with literally crumbling roads and stuff all Government services.
I am not confident Liberal will be any better. Lib and Labor - opposite cheeks of the same arse.
You guys create the Wealth the people in the city waste it all cause their trash,as was said in previous times people go to the city to die
Peter Dutton will be the next Australian prime minister.
Dutton is the guy who refuses to state there are only two genders and did not clearly state he will end men competing in women's sport. I am undecided about Dutton. After all, Lib and Labor are the opposite seats of the same arse. Been like it for decades.
Be careful what you wish four. Dutton has refused to state he will only recognise two genders only, and has not clearly stated that he will ban men from women's sports. We do not know what we are getting, same happened with Turnbull, who turned out to be a LINO - liberal in name only. for clarity, Albanese inspires no confidence at all.
Can anyone offer any Legitimate Action Plan on how 200 Billion is ever paid down? Anyone. Nah, no one and you all want Endless Cost of Living Payrises, it’s over. Goose is cooked.
Increased Crime, Rates, Hospital Waiting Lists.
I suspect the only way is to open up mining exploration in Vic which is currently completely banned, WA has so much money from mining. A visit to Perth is an eye opener with all the public and private construction going on. No wonder the Westralians keep talking about separating from rest of Australia. They have already had 2 referendums on reverting back to being their own country and they blame the huge numbers of eastern staters working in WA for the referendums failing to get up.
The Greens are like watermelons.
They are perishable and rot in the short term.
Unless one has missed something.
Greens, in their current iteration, have passed sell-by.
lie watermelons left in the sun green outside ,rotten inside esp wanker bandt , another albo ,radical,
Soon only WA will remain as a alp stronghold.
No. They are not as silly as Victoria.
Labor could hold power for at least the next election most likely more with the SA liberals a mess the last leader bust for sniffing a mystery powder and charged with supplying. Add to that in fighting highly unlikely libs will the next one here.
Consequences would actually be jail time.
The city will still vote for labor as there that stupid.
I've lived in inner city Melbourne all my life, and I've always voted Liberal - would never vote Labor/Greens/Teals if my life dependant on it! But you're right
They're are too many rusted on soy latte frapachino drinking lefty socialist woke elites who will always vote Labor/Greens as they see them as "progressive ", pro Muslims/indigenous and anti whiteism! This suits the inner city lefty elites with their virtue sigling!
I think you guys at Sky are being overly optimistic (I wish I could share your optimism since Labor has completely destroyed this state). In any other context, the Labor win in Werribee would be decisive. Keep in mind that when you have a byelection there is always going to be a backlash against an MP resigning who was in Government (often for as simple a reason as making voters turn up on a Saturday instead of enjoying their day off), so the swing does not mean that much at all. And there is not much to celebrate with the coalition barely scraping in against an almost 50% two party preferred green vote. I am afraid to say that Melbourne is as woke as ever.
I agree. Vic libs are useless. Absolutely useless. With Labor policies.
Get ready to clear your desk Premier Wokey DEI Useless 👋
Yes what we need is a extreme Neo liberal right wing fascist news channel that loves Trump and thinks Megyn Kelly has brains 😅
you must like it to comment here❤
I love it when a loose finger gets loose on a keyboard from a true red , Albo rule book reading goose . Keep typing Davey hodes.
@steverogers9507 I will and I'm still in stitches
Few months till the election will tell what the people think. Liberal labor both two piles of turds but one of those piles will run the country.
