Deputy Premier Ben Carroll tells Jacinta Allan he would put hand up to become Victoria's next Labor leader

Last week, the media said there'll be a Victorian ALP spill.
Initially, Ben Carroll said no.
Then he said only if there's a vacancy.
Today, he said Spill.
He should know better than to take advice from the media. It's the end of his career, and bad for Labor in the lead-up to an election.

There's been so much bad political reporting. They pushed conspiracy theories that Victoria's "Big Build" infrastructure projects are so Jacinta Allan's government can give millions to the perennial threat, "Bikie Gangs".

Nationally, the media's normalising neo-nazis. They hyped One Nation becoming the Opposition and Pauline Hanson becoming PM. But polls show the media's pump-up for One Nation fizzling.

I wish the media would stick to reporting on facts, and stop thinking they can steer the direction of politics.
