FROM ST KILDA TO FRANKSTON: VICTORIANS HAVE HAD ENOUGH
I’ve spent the week speaking with people across Melbourne
From antisemitism to youth crime, I keep hearing the same message: the government has failed to enforce existing laws & Victorians are paying the price
Every Victorian deserves to feel safe
On 28 November, Victorians have the power to force change

WHAT HAPPENED TO HONEST & TRANSPARENT GOVERNMENT?
Government decisions affect our safety, our families & our cost of living
Freedom of information laws help us scrutinise those decisions
The law generally requires a decision within 30 days
Yet the Office of the Victorian Information Commissioner recorded breaches across 48 Victorian agencies
Victoria Police was among the worst offenders. In the delayed cases examined by OVIC, the average time taken to provide a decision was 455 days
30 DAYS REQUIRED BY LAW. 455 DAYS IN REALITY.
How can the Government claim to be honest & transparent when the public is left waiting for answers ?

WHAT IS BEN CARROLL TRYING TO HIDE?
I sought government briefings on antisemitism, the racist chant “All Zionists are Terrorists” & enforcement of Victoria’s vilification laws.
30 relevant documents identified. 21 withheld entirely. Just ONE released in full.
Antisemitism surged in Victoria under Labor. The public deserves to know what advice the government received & how it responded.
@BenCarrollMP, Victorians deserve answers

“DEATH TO AUSTRALIA”: LABOR MUST CONDEMN LEFT-WING EXTREMISM
“Death to Australia.”
“Death to One Nation.”
“Die Pauline.”
These are the chants in the accompanying footage from a protest in Melbourne
Whatever your opinion of Pauline Hanson or One Nation, calls for death directed at political opponents should appal anyone who believes in democracy
Labor, the Greens & Socialists must unequivocally condemn these chants & confront left-wing extremism wherever it appears - including within their own ranks
Political loyalty must never come before the responsibility to challenge threats & intimidation
The standard cannot depend on who is chanting or who is being targetedView quoted post on X
