Liberals congratulate Labor for announcing policy vision
The Government congratulates Opposition Leader Bryan Green and his Labor colleagues for today announcing they will release to the people of Tasmania a fully costed, fully funded alternative budget in May and a comprehensive policy platform soon after.
We have long been on the record calling for Labor to outline what it actually stands for and – credit where credit is due – we take our hats off to Labor for being committed to being a mature and responsible alternative government that is moving on from simply throwing rocks from the sidelines and trying to walk both sides of the street without actually standing for anything.
I am sure that all Tasmanians will be relieved when they learn that instead of the hysterical, ‘opposition for opposition’s sake’ approach that Bryan Green and his colleagues have been taking they will instead be rolling out a comprehensive policy platform, with fully costed and fully funded initiatives.
Well done Bryan Green, well done indeed.*
* Happy April Fool’s Day
Joan Rylah, Liberal Member for Braddon
