The former New South Wales Liberal premier Dominic Perrottet has declared Covid-19 vaccine mandates were “wrong” and a “mistake” in the valedictory speech marking the end of his 13-year career in parliament.
Perrottet formally bowed out of NSW politics on Tuesday after announcing last month he would resign as the member for Epping and move with his family to Washington DC, to work as the US head of corporate and external relations at mining company BHP.
