Victorian Premier Ted Baillieu is likely to lose the next election
because of his government's lack of action, a distinguished professor has told a labour conference.
Ron McCallum, an emeritus professor of law at the University of Sydney, said that while
Victoria's former Labor government had introduced Australia's most modern health and safety laws in 2005, the incumbent coalition government was doing little to improve workplace laws."The Baillieu government ... they don't seem to do much, observing from this side of the Murray,"
Prof McCallum told the Sydney Law School's Labour Law Conference in Sydney.
"And I suspect that they may lose office in two years' time or 18 months' time."
Prof McCallum, the 2011 Senior Australian of the Year, had praise for 40-year-old Victorian Opposition Leader Daniel Andrews who took over the Labor leadership when the coalition came to power in December 2010.
"The young Labor leader looks bright and interesting," he said.
