'I won't be lectured': Littleproud hits back at Miles in vaccine stoush
Federal Minister David Littleproud has hit back at comments made by Queensland's Deputy Premier Dr Steven Miles amid a growing stoush between the Commonwealth and state governments over the nation's COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
Dr Miles had suggested that Mr Littleproud's earlier criticism of the Queensland Government's COVID-19 rollout was an attempt to distract from the controversey surrounding embattled MP Andrew Laming.
Mr Miles also said "particularly offensive remarks" aimed at state governments over a slower than expected COVID vaccine rollout weren't needed, adding that Mr Littleproud should give the Federal Government "an uppercut" for not doing better.
