Labor Equals Greens
With the latest EMRS showing the only way Labor can form Government is with the Greens, Labor heavyweights are laying the groundwork.
Former Labor Premier David Bartlett has told 6 News:
I actually believe that effectively the Greens are the left wing of the Labor Party and that if progressive people like me want to see continuing Labor Governments or progressive Governments, I should say, in Tasmania, we need to find a way to work with the Greens.
Mr Bartlett knows all about doing deals with the Greens.
He famously negotiated a deal with the Greens in 2010 during a bike ride up Mount Wellington.
It’s now clear: Labor’s getting the bikes out of the shed for another go.
We know how it ended up last time.
And it will happen again.
A Labor-Green Government will make Tasmania pay.
