Bec Judd has slammed Victoria’s new premier Ben Carroll in a scathing rant, accusing him of being complicit in the “downfall” of the state.
The AFL WAG took to Instagram on Tuesday to blast Carroll to her hundreds of thousands of followers.
Former premier Jacinta Allan sparked a dramatic leadership spill after resigning on Tuesday, with Labor electing Carroll after a chaotic few hours.
Alongside a news article announcing Carroll’s position, the influencer remarked: “Never forget that this man sat side-by-side with Daniel Andrews and Jacinta Allan and was complicit in the downfall of Victoria.”
“Same s**t. Different face,” she added.
Judd isn’t the only one to speak out against Carroll and Labour in recent days.
Opposition Leader Jess Wilson says it does not matter who runs the Labor Party because the government’s problems run far deeper.
“It does not matter who leads this government,” Wilson told parliament following Carroll’s appointment.
“The Labor Party does not have the guts to admit the government has forfeited its moral authority to govern.”
Wilson argued that the new Premier could not detach himself from Jacinta Allan’s unpopular decisions because he was sitting at the cabinet table when they were made.
Back in 2024, Judd described Melbourne as “woke, broke and violent” when airing her concerns about violent crime.
“Melbourne this is sad. Woke, broke and violent. I can’t believe we are living like this,” she wrote on Instagram, reacting to a 3AW segment about residents being encouraged to put Apple Airtags in their cars.
Two years before that, Judd said she felt unsafe in her multimillion-dollar mansion and claimed the Victorian government didn’t “seem to care” or be doing anything about violent crime in Bayside.
She said at the time that she personally knew two women who had experienced home invasions in Brighton in recent weeks.
Judd is famously outspoken on social media, and back in June she slammed her former employer, Nine, for firing Karl Stefanovic.
“No matter what side of politics you sit on, everybody deserves the right to their opinion, even if you don’t agree with it,” she said on social media regarding her pal’s firing.
“Freedom of speech nurtures critical thinking, prevents groupthink and allows people to build a tolerance for perspectives that are outside their own.
“Most importantly, it is integral to a strong democracy.”
