The Victorian Labor government is facing allegations of corruption and branch-stacking within the Victorian Labor party. The state’s Premier Daniel Andrews has now lost three ministers from his cabinet as increasing scrutiny grows over their roles in the developing scandal.
A year-long joint investigative report released by Channel Nine’s 60 Minutes program on June 14 and The Age newspaper on June 15, accused the former Victorian Minister for Local Government and Small Business Abed Somyurek of branch stacking, corruption, and taxpayer-funded rorting.
