Oh dear! Victoria again. But what do you expect in a state whose premier is now plotting with crossbenchers - who have a record of siding with him, and with not enough left of the Liberals in the lower house to block him - to give himself Xi Jinping type authority to deal with pandemics. Just him, in dictator style, unable to be questioned or reined in by parliament.

The leader of the opposition is sabre rattling, but what can he do without the numbers?

Thankfully, I'm not a Victorian, but if this creature can get away with turning his state into a mini-China, other premiers, who have usurped the running of the country, could get the same ideas as Andrews.

What can be done when there is virtually no opposition in Victoria? Can the courts help the long-suffering, downtrodden Victorians? Is a Vice-Regal intervention a la Whitlam possible?

Something has to be done about this totalitarian lunatic.
