A former Melbourne MMA fighter has launched an extraordinary attack on the Andrews Government’s pandemic response, declaring it a “Marxist text book to destroy our way of life”.

Vik Grujic also tweeted this week the coronavirus was a “fake pandemic hoax”.

“An attempt from the Marxist text book to destroy our way of life. @DanielAndrewsMP

and the #MSM are working over time. You will fail miserably and all be held accountable for these crimes against humanity,” Grujic tweeted to his almost 5000 followers.

He also retweeted a post that labelled Mr Andrews and Labor a “fraudulent, treasonous party” that had ignored the impacts the lockdown was having on millions of Victorians.

The tweets come as the state grapples with a spiralling number of cases and the introduction of mandatory mask wearing in public to try and bring the situation under control.

“How does @DanielAndrewsMP expect to dictate to Aussies how to live. We are free. Not yours to decide how to live our lives. You need to go!!!,” he tweeted to Mr Andrews.

In other tweets he said the Premier should “rot and burn” and vowed not to comply with the directions.

“I will not wear a mask. I will not pay a fine...I’m a proud Australian, born free, nothing will take that away from me, no virus, no dicator.”

In response to reports about the mask wearing being enforced he tweeted: “I will never bow to a dictatorship. I’m a proud Aussie. Born free. Will die free.”

Grujic fought professionally 12 times in MMA, making three appearances in the UFC, ending his career in 2017 with a 6-6 record.

Anyone in Greater Melbourne or Mitchell Shire caught without a mask or face covering will be fined $200 from Wednesday evening.
