Vic Libs Reeling Over Secret Baillieu Tape PUBLISHED: 24 JUN 2014 12:38:00 | UPDATED: 25 JUN 2014 05:58:53
Vic Libs reeling over secret Baillieu tape PUBLISHED: 24 JUN 2014 12:38:00 | UPDATED: 25 JUN 2014 05:58:53 LUCILLE KEEN AND MATHEW DUNCKLEY An embarrassing leaked recording of former Victorian premier Ted Baillieu criticising other Liberal MPs to journalists has inflamed tensions in the party. In the recording of a conversation with an Age journalist Mr Baillieu slammed the factional divides which led to the selection of Tim Smith to contest the blue-ribbon seat of Kew at the next election. Mr Baillieu supported front bencher Mary Wooldridge in her unsuccessful tilt for the seat. Mr Baillieu also criticises MPs Michael Gidley and Murray Thompson and the conservative faction that overturned Denis Napthine as opposition leader in 2002 to be replaced by Robert Doyle. “The technique with Michael Gidley was the technique with Tim Smith,” Mr Baillieu said. He also criticised balance-of-power MP Geoff Shaw. Mr Shaw quit the parliamentary Liberal Party, citing a lack of faith in the leadership, contributing to Mr Baillieu’s resignation hours later. “Shaw has been sponsored into his position by a bunch of people from the very first day led by Bernie Finn and some crazy mates in the parliamentary team and a very senior member of the organisation who is very close to [federal MP] Kevin Andrews,” he said. Mr Shaw said Mr Baillieu can hold his own opinions but the “sad thing is he didn’t allow” his backbenchers any opinions while he was premier. He said claims about his backers were false and he was in a safe Liberal seat, “he takes for granted”.

Protests Following the Recent Protest in Melbourne City That Resulted In
Protests Following the recent protest in Melbourne city that resulted in many people being injured and over 50 arrests, fiery debate has once again been sparked as to whether the public’s right to protest should be protected. Two opinion pieces offer polarised views on the issue. In an article published in The Sunday Herald Sun on 23 October 2011, “Selfish rabble got what it deserved”, Melbourne Lord Mayor Robert Doyle contends, in a scathing diatribe, that the public should not be allowed to protest as a consequence of the recent riot that disrupted many corporations and police. Conversely, an editorial published in The Age on 23 October 2011 headlining, “Occupying a legitimate place in a peaceful democracy”, argues that Melbourne should strongly value the right to protest. An accompanying photograph depicting an ongoing protest with police standing beside the protesters seems to endorse Robert Doyle’s contention. This issue highlights the conflict between the individual liberty and public rights. From the outset, Melbourne Lord Mayor Robert Doyle in The Sunday Herald Sun adopts an acerbic and invective tone – “volatile crowd”, “rabble”. The article is targeted at the general readership of the newspapers, but predominantly the proportion of the Melbourne populace who were affected by the recent protest. Throughout the article, Doyle positions himself as highly credible and credential as evident through his occupation as “Lord Mayor”, a title often associated with divinity and righteousness. The first person narrative of “I” positions readers to accept his valid opinion because the Lord Mayor is considered as someone not to be reckoned with.

We pause to remember the more than 100,000 Australians who have lost their lives in the service of their country, and the very many thousands more who have been injured.
