Member for Mildura Jade Benham has called the Andrews Government’s decision to scrap the 2026 Commonwealth Games a massive humiliation for Victoria.

The local MP says this decision is a betrayal of Regional Victoria and confirms that Victoria is broke and Labor simply cannot manage major projects without huge cost blowouts.

In a press release Ms Benham continues that the cancellation of the Commonwealth Games is hugely damaging to Victoria’s reputation as a global events leader.

She says that instead of a lasting legacy of housing, sporting and community infrastructure, Daniel Andrews and Jacinta Allan’s botched Games will only leave a legacy of failure and missed opportunities.
