Aussie NSW premier who warned unvaccinated face “difficult life indefinitely” RESIGNS ahead of corruption probe
Gladys Berejiklian has jumped ship as Premier of Australia’s New South Wales before a probe could be launched by the state’s Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), despite insisting she has “always acted with the highest level of integrity”.
“My only regret is not being able to finish the job to ensure that NSW residents transition to living freely with Covid,” she said.
Her “secret” personal relationship with former NSW legislator Daryl Maguire – who resigned in 2018 over separate corruption allegations – sparked the probe, after he alleged Berejiklian had funneled millions of govt grant dollars into his district.
Berejiklian has been making headlines as a supporter of tough Covid restrictions, just this week warning “life for the unvaccinated will be difficult indefinitely” as she unveiled the Covid roadmap for Sydney’s state.
