‘Blatant lie’: Jacqui Felgate slams Jacinta Allan’s ‘pathetic’ Metro Tunnel announcement

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan has announced the Metro Tunnel is set to open in December, after an array of delays and cost blowouts over the past decade.

3AW Drive host Jacqui Felgate weighed in on the state government’s announcement and says it’s a “blatant lie” to the people of Victoria.

“Stop with the spin, it’s pathetic, it’s a lie and it’s totally totally dishonest,” Felgate said.

“Tell us the truth, people aren’t stupid and you treat them like they are.”

“You’re not a news service premier, you’re the premier of course your information is exclusive, you’re the one who makes the rules, you’re the government.”

State Opposition Leader Brad Battin joined 3AW Drive and reacted to the state government’s Metro Tunnel announcement.
