Bronze statue for Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews planned near Treasury Gardens amid criticism.
A bronze statue honoring former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews is planned for installation near Treasury Gardens in Melbourne, a recognition for serving over 3,000 days in office. The cost and exact location are still undecided. The decision has faced criticism from opposition finance spokesperson Jess Wilson, who argues that the government should prioritize pressing issues like the cost-of-living crisis and healthcare over erecting a statue. Andrews served nearly nine years, notably during the COVID-19 pandemic.
