Victoria’s ‘slack attitude to economic productivity’ set to ‘get worse’

over 1 year in news

Sky News host Peta Credlin says many CBDs are still struggling post-COVID, with Melbourne one of the hardest hit.

“Where analysis from the Victorian Property Council says that only about a third of workers are back in the office,” she said.

Ms Credlin said the main culprit of this is Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and his government as they believe letting people work from home “in their tracksuit pants and Ugg boots” will help him win the upcoming state election.

“Well today, a leaked draft of Labor's state election platform, shows that this slack attitude to our economic productivity just gets worse,” she said.

Ms Credlin said the leak involved a proposal for a “four-day work week with five days’ pay”.

“And while small business will say, quite properly, we can't afford to pay people for a day's work we don't get, you can bet the taxpayers of Victoria will have to cop it sweet so that Labor wins the election in November,” she said.
