Why was Daniel Andrews’ corruption hearing kept secret?

    It’s a rhetorical question.

    Andrews is corrupt af. His tentacles spread so far that he’s even able to keep a grilling by the top corruption watchdog in the state a secret for a week. Andrews basically has every institution in Victoria eating out of his hands. It’s a wonder we’re able to discover as much as the Lying Press is letting on:

    Daniel Andrews will come under further pressure to stand down as the Victorian Premier after it was revealed he faced a second secret anti-corruption hearing.

    The Australian on Friday revealed he was grilled by the Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission (IBAC) over his association with an alleged corrupt property developer who is accused of dodgy land deals.

    The revelation came after it emerged last week he fronted the watchdog overLabor’s culture and the misuse of public resources.

    The new report said Mr Andrews was grilled over his relationship with John Woodman and whether the Premier had been give his phone number.

    The watchdog is looking into Mr Woodman and Mr Andrews who attended the same political fundraising events and whether large donations led to privileged access at a ministerial level.

    The publication said the Victorian leader had changed his testimony and agreed Philip Staindl, a veteran Labor lobbyist who has previously worked closely with Mr Woodman, could have passed the mobile number to him.

    Mr Andrews later told the hearing it was highly unlikely he would have requested or was given Mr Woodman’s contact details.
