Tasmania needs a strong majority Liberal Government that can make Tasmania stand on its own two feet, rather than the current Green-Labor Government, which is forever going begging to Canberra.

Comments from Federal Denison MP, Andrew Wilkie, in The Australian today confirm that the federal government is sick of the disastrous Green-Labor Government and has simply stopped listening.

Mr Wilkie said that the Federal Government referred to Tasmania as “the mendicant state”.

This is the inevitable consequence of an unstable Green-Labor Government that wants to shut down entire industries and slash frontline services.

We need a strong Liberal Government to make Tasmania stand on its own two feet. The Liberals have a plan to grow the economy, support vital industries like forestry and protect the frontline services that all Tasmanians rely on.
