Leading this state has been the greatest of gifts, every single day.
Thank you, Victoria.

- Victorian-made trains, in a Victorian-made tunnel. It doesn't get better than that.
00:00 - We're banning all types of rental bidding for good.Renters shouldn't have to go to extremes to lock in a home. That's why we'll make it an offence to accept bids, and introduce tougher penalties for agents and landlords who break the law. We're levelling the playing field. Because it's the right thing to do.Bit more info here: vic.gov.au/housing-statem…
- Having applications sitting in the system doesn’t get homes built. So 1,400 applications stuck for more than six months is six months of waiting we can’t afford. We’ll fix it.
- We've just released our plan for housing. It'll mean that whether you're buying your first place, upsizing or downsizing as life changes, or renting, there'll be a place you can call home - at a price you can afford. Here's the details:
Replying to @DanielAndrewsMPWe need a plan so Victorians have affordable homes into the future.
Read the full Housing Statement here vic.gov.au/housing-statem… - We're going to build another 769 new social housing homes in Victoria. And we're getting started by completely rebuilding these towers in Carlton.
00:00And this is why: a couple of years ago, the sewer system gave up – and the experts say it would be impossible to bring these 1960s buildings up to standard. So with help from the Federal Government, we're going to rebuild them with more social housing than was there before. - I've been in touch with Ron Barassi's family and I'm so happy they've accepted the Government's offer of a state memorial.Ron reshaped football into the modern game we know today. A state memorial will be a chance for his contributions to our state to be honoured, and for all Victorians to remember his extraordinary life.
- The word legend is used a lot. But nobody deserves it quite like Ron Barassi. He didn’t just play the game - he reshaped it. And how fitting that last night’s game was a cliffhanger between the Dees and the Blues.
The government will offer Ron’s family a state funeral to remember him - and I hope they accept. Vale Ron.
