But, but, but ... isn't it meant to be Victoria in trouble?

Victoria is doing the heavy lifting in this housing crisis. The other states, especially NSW, need to lift their game. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

2026 is the year of Victorian victory. We won. Melbourne is the largest, fastest growing and most important city on the continent. Elections are won and lost here now. We run the show. It is why Sydney, Perth and Brisbane taxes will pay for the SRL Australia is Melbourne's hinterland.

Sydney Test proceeding as expected.

Hated by who though Daniella? Not the people moving here in huge numbers. Not people living here who keep voting for them. Maybe, just maybe, its a small core of irrelevant rich sooks who hate affordable housing?

Public compliance with water restrictions during the Millennium Drought was so high the messaging campaigns were taught globally as best practice. But given our media radicalised a quarter of the population during COVID, unlikely we will see a repeat. www.theage.com.au/politics/vic...

Boxing Day Test setting record crowds. They must not have got the memo about Melbourne's streets being like 1970s New York.

NSW figure is close to 25,000 (receipt below). The bias is the reporting has become straight lying.

After decades of Victorian taxes funding roads to dusty shitholes in Queensland, finally we get something back.

See also - Victoria.

Victoria still gets ripped off by Canberra every single day.

What the hell goes on up there? www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

The Age rails against housing developments that spring up before adequate public transport in place. And also building public transport ahead of the development too!

Hang on! We were assured Victoria was uniquely bad at major construction projects and NSW didn't have these blowouts.

@vicindymovement.bsky.social 🚨 shithole alert 🚨

The pubs and airport shut at 8PM anyway, who would notice?

They never ever stop thinking about us up in the itty bitty little harbourside city.

No questions about the AFLW Grand Final. Major event in the largest city on the continent of interest? Nah. PSV Eindhoven and a car race in America get a run though. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

Melbourne is a booming city for people who love a good time. Not train nerds and ageing property investors who obsess about water views. www.timeout.com/melbourne/ne...

Why do so many Australian media branes think Victoria exists only to pay into the federation? Why do they hate Melbourne building underground passenger rail but not Sydney? Why are they always called Bernard?

The Lachlan Murdoch/Tony Abbott faction runs Liberal politics out of Sydney. Wilson won't be allowed to succeed, they want Moira instead.

Amazing how quickly Canberra came to the party once a credible threat to the federation emerged.

Tremendous news.

Melbourne has the world's largest tram network, which means testing the tech in one of the smaller regional centres makes sense. www.theage.com.au/technology/g...

Victoria is different from Australia. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

Why is it always Sydney?

Peter Dutton came to Melbourne and said he'd cancel SRL. Melbourne then voted Labor even harder, especially in the east. Of course concerns are waning, they'll find the whole thing now.

Bell Station got one of these nominations last year. Sydney's pride and joy metro stops are just an average suburban station in Marvellous Melbourne.

There's "national security" concerns about Chinese funds putting money into SRL. But Western Australia literally arms the PLA and no biggie www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

It's official - Sydney is the preferred city of nasty ignorant right wing scum.

The most important day on this land since July 1 1851. Victoria is now a mature nation that's writing its own story. www.theage.com.au/politics/vic...

Behold the desolate crime ridden streets of Melbourne's CBD.

Murder rates falling and drug offences falling. But that doesn't fit a carefully curated political narrative. theconversation.com/is-melbourne...

Eureka was a mass revolt against the government of the day.

🚨 CONFECTED CRIME CRISIS 🚨 Media Organisation A reporting on Media Organisation B using a story across two of its channels. Meanwhile the Victorian Liberals are sacking ANOTHER leader because Victorian voters see through the Confected Crime Crisis. x.com/7NewsMelbour...

How are we meant to share an island with these people? We're just not the same kind of society.

He's Big Maxy GAWN.

Oh dear, Gabrielle Williams has earned the wrath of dozens of weird incels living in $1.7m one bedders thirty five clicks from the Opera House.

A truly incredible arrangement of words. Unhinged.

Hard to believe staring at an old bridge isn't considered vibrant.

The people of Portland are experiencing what the people of Melbourne experienced, when our national leader and the press decided to single us out for partisan reasons during covid. It will unite them too #Vic #Auspol

Jeff Kennett now denies Melbourne experienced a huge heroin wave in the 1990s.

A Sydney media nepobaby with fringe political views says what? Memo Parnell. Melbourne is normal. You are the weirdo.

Happy "Australian Men Banned By Court Order From Contacting Family Getting Really Mad About Uncle Colin" Day to one and all

Check out the big brane on Borgan Megg from the Institute of Public Arseshowing.

Sick.

Under Sir Henry Bolte, Victoria's debt was over 50 per cent of Gross State Product. Under Andrews/Allan it'll top out at 25-27 per cent of GSP. Governments need to borrow during a population boom. That's just political physics.

All of Australia: "What's happening in Victoria now? All we do all day is think and talk about Victoria because our own crappy cities and country are so boring!" Victorians: "Is Zach Merrett REALLY going to Hawthorn?"

Oh hey look it is corrupt former NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian meeting Xi Jinping! She's with her ex partner Daryl Maguire. He's currently in jail for lying about his links with Chinese property developers.

Only issue here is that the President of Victoria should be present, not a former Premier.
