Another Premier goes

The Australian reports:

Daniel Andrews has announced his resignation.

The Victorian Premier made the announcement accompanied by wife, Catherine, at a snap press conference outside the Victorian parliament. 

In one sense this is not a huge surprise. His favourability rating went negative in August for the first time ever. But he has been Premier for nine years and Labor Leader for 13 or so. However he won his third term just last year and the next election is not until 2026, so it is unusual to depart so soon after an election.

The WA Premier resigned this year also.
