‘A bit weird’: Ben Carroll’s pathetic ‘performative eating’ at Macca’s falls flat

Herald Sun’s state political reporter Carly Douglas reacts to Victorian Labor Premier Ben Carroll’s “performative eating” at McDonald’s.

“He wanted the cameras on him for this moment of him dipping these fries into his soft serve,” Ms Douglas told News24 host Caleb Bond.

“He obviously thought it would make him more relatable, I think lots of people just thought it was a bit weird, though.”
