Government performance

 Wayne FARNHAM (Narracan) (13:24): Hells bells, Victorians are thunderstruck by the government’s decision to tax puppies – I know it shook me all night long. There is not a whole lot of Rosie in Victoria at the moment; Victoria feels like it is on a highway to hell. There is no need for jailbreak with our bail laws. We are getting a wild reputation. It is becoming a touch too much, and it feels like we are a badlands. But guess what, it is safe in New York City. Riff raff and rough stuff are dominating our streets. Smash-and-grabs are common, businesses are being shot down in flames and we are on the razor’s edge in Victoria – like TNT, it feels like we are going to explode. The CFMEU’s little lover, the government, needs to stand up and stop giving the dog a bone, stop doing dirty deeds and start spoiling for a fight. The government needs to flick the switch and stop beating around the bush. Honestly, it is all screwed up, but the government is scared of rejection. It does not want to create a love bomb. This government is on borrowed time. Victorians, are you ready to be back in business? No more back seat confidential, no more boogie man, no more breaking the rules – it is time for a fresh start. But do not hold me back, because come hell or high water we need to get Victoria back in black. And to Labor: goodbye and good riddance to bad luck.
