Jacqui Felgate questions Jacinta Allan on whether she’ll stand aside after Werribee by-election

With the Werribee by-election fast approaching, Jacqui Felgate has questioned Premier Jacinta Allan on whether she’ll stand aside if Labor loses the seat.

The by-election takes place next Saturday, with Labor looking to hold on to the seat after Tim Pallas’ resignation.

“If Labor does lose that seat, will you stand aside?” the 3AW Drive host asked the Premier.

“I think it’s important that we respect the voters who are voting in both Werribee and Prahran, and let them decide the outcome of the election, and not presume that before it happens,” Allan said.

“Whether it’s Werribee or any part of the state, communities need Labor governments and Labor premiers to fight for them.”
