Sky News Australia Victorian Liberal Democrat MP David Limbrick discusses how Victoria Police has paid more than $42 million in civil and legal settlements over the past five years.
“It shouldn’t be any surprise that when huge numbers of laws that are very confusing to enforce and don’t have public buy-in that there’s going be mistakes with how they’re implemented,” Mr Limbrick told Sky News host Pita Panahi.
“What we really hope though is that they change the way they do things going forward.”
You’ve seen the police in the pandemic imagine them in a war when china attacks
You’ll see the dirtieness then
I was one of the people Assaulted by VicPol. Weapon drawn on my back….
I was walking around the block in that 1hr allowed exercise as I couldn't go too far. At least 1 cop wasn't sworn in and fresh out of Training
One quick flick over a man who is now paralysed thanks to over aggressive police behaviour. That should be a news story on it's own. Limpdick story and limpdick Limbrick makes for little wonder why Andrews is still in power.
Victoria voted for the same controlling socialist state government ….. the Eduction state knows best apparently 👍
I'm certain that the mandates fit the definition of extortion and blackmail which is a criminal act. Welcome to anarchy
When will all these murderers traitors be held to account.
Go after Dan Andrews now. He was the author and architect of all of this using the police as his own personal militia.
Victorians re-elected the government that was giving the orders and wrote the laws – remember that.
Defund the granny bashers.
More proof who the real enemies are! The corrupt government and the criminals wearing police uniforms should be held accountable for what they did. They were in total breach of the laws of this country and it brought to light the sadistic and psychopathic nature of these public servants…. One would wonder if these sick people were purposely selected because of their low IQ and compromised mindsets! Whistleblowers are coming out and these people will be held accountable!
"Mistakes"…….so bashing unarmed people is a "mistake", arresting and kidnapping people a "mistake", shooting unarmed people a "mistake"….no one has a Right to do this to another REGARDLESS of any Law
Wonder if the Authoritarian’s have learnt anything? I’d say not. The problem with these payouts is it’s coming out of the public purse. It needs to come or of the offending officers…
Absolutely should be patients right to opt out.
What about reporting on the poor young bloke who was murdered when he was thrown to the ground at Southern Cross Station? You have the footage Rita
Sack the police chief and Chairman Dan
Repulsive Copper Swine..
And those Victorian ALP corrupted grubs..
Allah Akbar
Destroy this land
Australia has fallen. Become Communist China!
they should take the money out of their accounts!
these people should be in jail remember ww2
two words:
flock government
the purpose of the police was deliberately corrupted decades ago by pollyticians! the purpose of police is two-fold! to prevent crime and to solve crime!
nowadays, police serve two entirely different purposes – revenue raisers and brown shirts! and no, it's not directly the fault of the police! but of the career pollyticians who serve themslves at our expense
'career pollyticians' have brougt down every major civilization over the last 6,000 yrs and they're doing it again as we stand idly bye
"Ignorance of the Law is not an excuse for breaking it".
"A huge number of laws that are confusing to enforce."
If I'm held to account and prosecuted for my ignorance of confusing laws as a private citizen, then police, who enforce those laws AND are TRAINED in its use, should be held to a much higher accountability. And yet they enforce their interpretation with absolute immunity. PsOS!
He got re-elected so obviously no cares about the corruption and the abuse of power
The payouts are paid by Victorian taxpayers so why should Dan Perron give a sh,,t
Be cheaper to just get rid of the coppers lol
Kneeing the crap put of someone several times while being held down by their thug mates
Great funded by the tax for their thuggery.
Jail time for those police inflicting harm, as should be the case with any act of violence not in self defense!!
The secondary victim is the tax payer whose hard earned income goes towards paying these settlements instead of the individual crooked cop.
You Victorians, I have to hand it to you, your govt suckerpunched you in the head and still say they were right , what I cannot get around my head is that you allowed this moronic cretin, back in office , I'm not sure about you but I have something for Dan and his filthy cronies, it's an industrial shredder . Pure filth ,never forget ,those of you with half a brain
Maybe in ten years when everyone gets over the debacle of the Morrison government and gets tired of Labor. Until then you are on your own Rita. lol. Liberal opposition? lol. Damn you guys really did a number on the Liberal Party. Are you sure they want your support anymore Sky News Australia? Surely has not helped so far. Keep up the good work. lol. Everyday more and more people ignore Sky News Australia. I love to watch for a giggle. Tonight was hilarious! You have got to love the staff turn over as well. Every month is a new show! lolololololol. Somebody new to spew falsehoods. :-). oops where did they go? Oh well then get some other despot on the edge of the media or I know how about we just get anybody willing to do it? lolololololol.
We have no Rights, this is Australia. I challenge anyone to show me their Rights.. Im here waiting!
Oh please, the pigs didn't make mistakes. Dan openly gave them permission to do as they please. They gleefully took the opportunity to brutally beat the ever living shit out of people because they were told there would be no consequences.
The people to blame are Victorian voters. They elect and then reelect, then reelect the Victorian government, so, no sympathy. You get what you vote for.
I remember the 70's 80's 90's how cops were loved by the community. Now they are the most hated and despised by the community. Politicians come 2nd.
All police are scum wearing uniforms. I will certainly NEVER trust or call on these bastards ever again. F-ing lowlife scum. There is actually more honour amongst criminals. I believe Australians really must consider hiring private security who are not connected to corrupt governments in any way. Just get rid of the police, they are useless if they can't be trusted.
The Government cares nothing for people anymore they are going to bring in the Robots to replace us the Machines Pink Floyd sang about it 40 years ago
Machines are going to replace the police anyway they don't care about us
Why do the police target those who can pay and ignore those who can't?
Scum who BASH,
deserve the LASH.
I noticed that these gutless police members were to gutless to take on the criminal Lebanese bikie drug smuggling organisation in Victoria. Dan Andrews is a disgrace to decent law abiding citizens.
Beating peaceful protestors is confusing to me?
Right, If they take away one right, they'll take all rights away, right after the first right. Right?
