Labor have once again sided with the Greens in a bid to strangle Tasmania’s aquaculture industry, voting against certainty for the thousands of workers and regional businesses that rely on it.
Yet, Dean Winter remains silent.
It couldn’t be clearer where the Tasmanian Liberal Government stands – we back Tasmanian jobs and industries.
But where does Dean Winter and Tasmanian Labor stand? With their Federal colleagues, who are trying to shut down a key Tasmanian industry? Or with the hardworking Tasmanians who depend on it?
Dean Winter’s silence is a betrayal of every Tasmanian worker in the aquaculture industry.
He needs to decide — is he backing Tasmania, or is Canberra still pulling the strings on State Labor?
The choice is simple. Support the industry or stand with the Greens and their Federal colleagues in undermining regional jobs.
Tasmania deserves leaders who will fight for its industries, not sit on the fence while Canberra attempts to dictate our future.
