  1. Victorian Premier Ben Carroll to announce $2b in cuts to Suburban Rail Loop

    Ben Carroll sure has a curious strategy in the run-up to this year's State Election: it appears he wants to make the Coalition redundant by himself acting as the Opposition party.

    Today's brainfart from Ben Carroll is to hamstring the Suburban Rail Loop by slashing the scope and budget for essential infrastructure. His plan will drastically reduce the effectiveness of the SRL, and lock-in extra travel time for passengers.

    This comes only days after Ben Carroll returned to his anti-worker Shoppie roots by saying he wants to axe plans to protect workers' rights to Work From Home. Remote work is contrary to Conservative dogma and return-to-office edicts of big business and rent-seeking property developers, so Ben Carroll was quick to oblige.

    Good job, Benny, on your RWNJ election promises!

  2. Victoria: How much are you willing to spend to cancel the Suburban Rail Loop?

    This is some shockingly bullshit-hypothetical neocon wish-fulfillment propaganda by the Murdoch media. And it's a colossal self-own for the Victorian LNP.

    Why? Because Victorian people love our public transport projects such as Level-Crossing Removal. We want to continue modernising and expanding our train network.
