Dave Hughes UNLOADS on former Premier Dan Andrews | 3AW Melbourne

Isn't it strange that you're the only one in your family who encourages a carton team?Isn't everyone encouraging the bulldozers team?Oh, yes, I was in the matches with my brother who loves the bulldozers and who bought two tickets, but I couldn't stay except for one quarter, and the quarter I was in was the time the bulldozers returned to compete and advance in the first round.So I had to leave, and I was actually very happy to leave because we play better when I don't watch.You have to stay away.Listen, I think you had to leave because you were preparing a party to collect donations for the Liberal Party.

Is this true?This is true.I was there, and I think it was a party more than a party to collect donations in reality.I don't think it was to collect donations.I think you've been a candidate for the Workers' Party all your life, and all the time I've known you, you haven't been interested in public policy, but you've become that all of a sudden now.What has changed?

I've been a candidate for the Workers' Party all my life, and I came from a working family.As you know, my father was a worker in a factory and a man in a union, and my mother was a nurse.

We were raised in the west of Wodonga, which, as you know, is not the richest region in the world.and we lived in a government house, and I loved Bobhook.At that time, I considered Bobhook to be a great prime minister, and that's what made me truly established in the world of the Workers' Party.But since Dan Andrews was born, I completely lost interest in the Workers' Party.It started when he donated a billion dollars to a foreign union so that it wouldn't build a road.Then he started building roads in any case, so I felt that it was just a political decision.

I felt that everything he did was to win votes and not to improve the lives of the people of Victoria.And he was very good at that, very good at that, and he deceived this state for 12 years.What about the lockdown operations?I mean, was that when I started in some way?The lockdown operations were, yes, but that was Andrews' drunkenness again during that period, wow.

Then I heard stories later about where all the contracts went during that lockdown period, and all of them went to the companions of people in the government, and this simply drives me crazy, and this continued.All contracts go to friends of influential people, and this is corruption, and it is a serious matter.When Jacinta became prime minister three years ago, or was elected by her party, Did you think anything would change?

No, because I knew Andrews was still in the back, and he is still in the back.He has a consulting company.That consulting company works with the government.It is not a good thing.This must stop.

We have to go back in time as a state.We have given a lot of public money to people who do not deserve it.So we need a new page here.

I said it again because it really shook me when he said it.The first thing he said as a prime minister was, I am not Dana Andrews.I am not Jacinta Elena.In the government I lead, cleanliness will not be optional.This means to me that he witnessed the lack of cleanliness for 10 years behind closed doors.He saw what was happening in those meetings.

This angers him, but he did not say anything at that time.I'm sorry, Beno.You have to go.Andrews is still behind me.Victoria can't take any more theft.Yes.

And my impression is that suddenly there is a loss of elections on the horizon.Like?Yes, almost a loss of power.No, not guaranteed.And they say, well, we'll change everything and you know.If you really believed in this change, you would have done it a long time ago.

I'm sorry.Have you received criticism from friends and family?Yes, for sure.But as you know, when you believe that you are confident of your position, which is what I do, and I am happy with my position, And my position is that the state needs, as you know, people who will not grant all contracts to their companions.We only need a government that does not only care about its personal interests.

And this is what I feel that this government should have.Therefore, yes, I am subject to attack, but I believe that people who are not with me will eventually realize that I, as you know, have the best intentions.I know that I am like that.So, do you know why?

Tom, I have earned a lot of money in my life.No doubt about that.And I have invested it wisely to a large extent in general.And as you know, I realized that in reality I do not need more money.Therefore, I am not here to try to protect my wealth.And I am not here, as you know, to make my name more than it is.

And as you know, I have been criticized a lot.But I really know that I am doing this for the right reasons.So, I will deal with any criticism I face.Now, I know that you met Jess Wilson a few times.What do you think of her?I like her.

Wow, I'm impressed.I trust it, and I think we should give it a chance.I really mean that.What about the Federal Workers' Party?Do you hate it?I will call it a hatred that you have for the state government.

Does it extend to Anthony Albanese and Jim Chalmers?Does it extend now?Or was it not so?You voted for Alpo.So, as you know, I did not vote for the Workers' Party in the last elections in Victoria because I was simply disgusted with their way of acting during COVID.

But...Or did you vote for Alpo in the last elections?But...Yes.I was surprised, like everyone else, when they withdrew from their promises in that budget that we got.Or did that make me look at how they behave too?

And yes, that's why I'm fed up with them too.I'm really fed up with them.And for Dan Andrews to sit next to Albo while the billionaires sit next to them and discuss what they will do with the nation's pensions.

A matter that should be feared by everyone.Good.And do you think that there are many people like you who have been long -term supporters of the Workers' Party and have reached the same conclusion as those who are changing their opinions now?I think there are.I have met many of them in reality.Oh, yes.

So, of course, many liberals, like you, may think well.I told you, as you know, I told you that all the time.And am I ready to admit that I was wrong?Do you know what I would like to do?If it was possible to have a time machine and go back to 2007, I would burn a shirt 07, Al -Khassabi.Therefore, I want to refer to Peter Costello.

that proud factory man, on the work he did when he was the minister of the treasury of this nation.In 2007, we had a pure religion of zero.Yes, we had a religion of zero when they put the Future Fund next to our debts.We had no religion.

Keyfin 07 to the authority.I have held a party for Keyfin.I think we need a change.Yes, the global financial crisis has occurred, and money spending has begun, and it has not stopped since then.No government has stopped since then.The problem is that it is very easy to spend money.

We all know this personally, and it is very difficult to save it, and it seems that it is a lesson, I think, that we have lost that warning.Well, can you tell me about the Future Fund?Ex - I mean, this is another big change.The percentage of a single nation has increased from 5 % of the votes to 20 or 25 or 30 percent, depending on the opinion you have.What do you think is happening there?

I think what is happening is that people are fed up with both big parties, and they think that both parties do not work for the common citizen, but they work for their own benefit.So I can understand that.And you know.I don't think Scott Morrison did a good job at the federal level.

Look, Tony Abbott, I'm not sure about his case.His method was not appropriate, but I really need to re -evaluate how he deals with things to be honest.

As for Turnbull, people are annoyed with him because he is simply, as you know, anyone.So I can understand the matter.I can understand that.but I do not know anything about many of the candidates of my party, a single nation, and I do not think that I will lead this path now.Therefore, I will give the liberals a chance in Victoria, and we will monitor what people need, and what people say to me on the street is, praise be to God, that I personally have a platform that actually sees what we see.Many of the owners of the brothels have money, including me, and they are isolated from the suffering of the ordinary person.

But the ordinary person who fights hard to pay the taxes imposed on him, then sees the shameful spending of money by politicians, He is angry, and I understand that, and this happens on both sides.

Well, this is the impression that reaches me from many people.Everyone accepts the idea that you have to pay taxes.We cannot get a society without taxes.We can argue about what if this or that equation should be, and how taxes are imposed on work or capital.But the matter is different when they see the money of taxes being wasted.The hard work that a person does to pay that tax goes in vain.

This makes people angry, and it is not wasted, it is enough.

Rather, they are usually spent in ways that make it difficult for people to move forward.They take money from people, from honest people, while many people resort to the tax system in impolite ways.But honest people actually pay their taxes.And when these honest people see their money, which they pay, being spent in an impolite way, and that they did not earn it with an honest effort used in corruption and in ways that increase the difficulty of earning their livelihood, That makes them angry, and I completely understand that.Now, you have gone through this political awakening.

You talk about things I have not heard you talk about much before.I mean, will you enter the field of politics by yourself?No, no, I will not.My wife does not want that from me.She said that we will divorce if that happens.I said to her, well, maybe it will happen.

more taxable, I don't know what the story is here.But, as for what, then, believe me, no one becomes richer because of divorce.I saw that for myself.Yes, I understand that.

So, no, I don't want to talk about politics, my friend.I don't want to be that person.I don't want to sit in Spring Street or in Canberra for just an endless discussion.But what I want is for those in charge to realize that we all monitor the money, and we will not accept the despicable way in which they spend the money now.

Finally, back to the football club Carlton, should the club hire Josh Frieser as a full -time coach?Yes, today.And I think we should do that.I mean, what he did in the last 12 weeks is exceptional.None of us thought this was possible.Do you know what?

Even if they appointed him today and Carlton did not win another match under his leadership, I still believe that it is the right decision.You cannot ignore the appointment of the man who achieved what he achieved so far.

And I love his style because it's calm.He doesn't show off in front of the audience.He seems humble, and leaves the players to play freely.And it seems that they work on their skills during the week, which is something I've been asking for a long time.Imagine that.Enough meetings, my friends.

Just work on your skills, and they do that, and the results show.Tovios, thank you for coming.You're the best, my friend.I appreciate your time.Tovios is a humorous comedian.He is no longer interested in money, so his upcoming offers will be completely free to the public.

My friend, I do not accept any money from many businessmen who want to finance me to continue my speech.I do not need money, and I do not want money because I do not want to be a citizen of anyone with any knowledge.And this is what is really happening.

Political donations mean that all these politicians are known to these people, and the matter ends with corruption.Political donations must stop completely.
