A former Labor MP has come forward about being the target of an alleged “systematic bullying campaign” by Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and other Labor party members and staff.

Kaushaliya Vaghela, who is now an independent member of the parliament of Victoria, moved a motion in the Legislative Council on March 9 to allege that the premier and the Minister for Women Gabrielle Williams bullied her systematically after she decided to change from the Socialist Left to the Right faction of the Labor party—which was led by former minister Adem Somyurek before the 2018 state election.
