The Victorian Labor Party under Daniel Andrews will form a new state Government. It is particularly noteworthy that they have a distinguished track record of friendship and support for the Victorian Jewish community; and the state of Israel. In this article on J-Wire, I write about the overwhelming support for Israel and the Jewish community by Premier-elect Daniel Andrews; new Jewish Attorney-General Martin Pakula; re-elected Albert Park Member Martin Foley MP; the Jewish Member for Footscray Marsha Thomson and many more. Their consistent opposition to BDS, and public defence of Israels right to defend itself, including during the most recent Gaza conflict; as well as their security funding commitments to the Beth Weizmann community centre and Jewish schools, make their victory a big win for the large Jewish community of Melbourne Ports and greater Victoria.
