I won t be lectured : Littleproud hits back at Miles in vaccine stoush
Federal Minister David Littleproud has hit back at comments made by Queensland s Deputy Premier Dr Steven Miles amid a growing stoush between the Commonwealth and state governments over the nation s COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
Dr Miles had suggested that Mr Littleproud s earlier criticism of the Queensland Government s COVID-19 rollout was an attempt to distract from the controversey surrounding embattled MP Andrew Laming.
Mr Miles also said particularly offensive remarks aimed at state governments over a slower than expected COVID vaccine rollout weren t needed, adding that Mr Littleproud should give the Federal Government an uppercut for not doing better.
