Australia news live: Swans fans turn up to support women’s team; Victorian premier rejects Liberals’ ‘thought bubble’ on criminal court reform

Victorian Premier Ben Carroll has rejected a proposal from the Liberal party to reform the state's criminal courts. The proposal, which Carroll called a "thought bubble," would have changed the way the courts operate. This development is significant because it shows the Labor government's commitment to its current policies and its stance on key issues like justice reform. The focus on these policies is important for markets and trade as it can impact investor confidence and the overall business environment in the state.

Why it matters

The Victorian premier's comments on criminal court reform and free dental care are domestic policy issues. They do not have a significant impact on the overall market sentiment.
