Latest News About Dan Andrews Statue

Updated 2026-05-15 11:01

I don’t have live access to current news in this moment. Based on the latest available reporting, plans to honour former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews with a bronze statue have sparked ongoing controversy and public petitions, with debates about whether public funds should support such a statue and calls from some politicians to pause or cancel the project. If you’d like, I can summarize the key developments from the most recent sources I can access and provide direct links.

Cancel plans to commission a statue of former Premier ...

The petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Council call on the Government to cancel any plans to commission or install a statue of former Premier the Hon. Daniel Andrews, particularly if any form of public funds or private funding is to be used, as commemorating a living and divisive political figure whose legacy remains subject to scrutiny breaks with long-standing convention.
