Victorian Opposition Leader slams state government’s ‘hypocrisy’ over hotel quarantine revelations05/05/2021|10min
Victorian Opposition Leader Michael O’Brien has slammed the Andrews Government over new revelations about hotel quarantine, saying the “hypocrisy of this just stinks”.
Matiu Bush, head of Victoria’s infection prevention, has been stood down after allegedly breaking the new rules involved in the state’s hotel quarantine.
“Having seen 801 of my fellow Victorians die, it’s not good enough,” Mr O’Brien told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“The government promised Victorians they had learned the lessons from last year… clearly they haven’t.
“What’s almost as bad is that not only have these shocking breaches occurred, but nothing happened about them until the media exposed it, it’s only today that Mr Bush has been stood down.”
