What would a government with an integrity problem do… cut funding to the Integrity Commission of course. Typical behaviour in Tasmania. @cassyoconnor.bsky.social @kristiejohnstonmp.bsky.social @andrewwilkiemp.bsky.social @ruthforrestmlc.bsky.social

Tasmania spending so much on a billion-dollar stadium while its deficit grows shows the link between poor policy process and fiscal indiscipline, writes Bernard Keane.

Why does the Advocate and its readership ( including one well known Minister) blame the Greens for everything and spin emotional headlines? @cassyoconnor.bsky.social @slowguns.bsky.social @tabathabadgermp.bsky.social @nickmckim.bsky.social @christinemilne.bsky.social

Tasmanians are united in supporting an AFL team. It’s dishonest to suggest opposition to stadium is same as opposition to team. North Broken Hill recruited Foster to promote their polluting pulp mill and then there’s pokies . History repeating itself. www.thesenior.com.au/story/515682... #politas

Average age of Members in The Liberal Party in VIC is 68, membership is less than 9k. One of their biggest weekly expenses are funeral wreaths an insider said. NSW is no better, but the wreaths are cheaper. #auspol #BinNight

Blatant propaganda. Pitching to those who in many cases can’t afford a ticket to an AFL game. Promoting the AFL brand of drinking and betting. Just what Tasmania needs!!!😡 @andrewwilkiemp.bsky.social @cassyoconnor.bsky.social @kristiejohnstonmp.bsky.social

PULL THE PLUG on Marinus. Kill the battery of the nation project. Tasmanians cannot endure power prices rising 30¢ on the dollar. Likely to be a state election in March 2026. Remember this. #politas

I’m concerned that these visits are using children for political purposes. I hope the Devils had permission from every child’s parents to use their photo for this purpose? Did the Devils staff have WWVP cards? @ruthforrestmlc.bsky.social @kristiejohnstonmp.bsky.social @cassyoconnor.bsky.social

Tasmanian Government follows a yellow brick road. They really think a stadium is the answer!🤔

Well, it is a stand out industry but for all the wrong reasons. The Tasmanian Govt cosies up with multinationals who pay no tax and ruin our waterways.

Stadium enabling legislation could face High Court challenge, says Greg Barns "I will be surprised ... if this clause does not get challenged, because the High Court and other courts around Australia don't like these clauses, and for a very good reason." www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

So, the Mercury newspaper tells us that the Devils have 200000 members and only half live in Tasmania. Of that half, how many are children (unborn or alive), cats and dogs and assorted others?

Why did the Tasmanian Government do this? Is it connected to one of their big donors? @kristiejohnstonmp.bsky.social thanks for sharing this

Is this man for real? Since when has setting off more fire crackers demonstrated the “Tasmanian way of life”? A distraction from all that is wrong in Tasmania. Most comments show that people see this for what it is. @kristiejohnstonmp.bsky.social @andrewwilkiemp.bsky.social

BREAKING: Australia is building vehicles again… just don’t tell the LNP! Volvo will start making electric trucks in Brisbane after Linfox ordered 30 of them. Yes, 30. That’s all it took to reboot our manufacturing sector. No diesel, no pollution, Australian Jobs, no coal lobbyists$$

Just confirming everyone has the delicious information that Labor has elected more women MPs than Liberals have elected all MPs. Yes, you read that right ❤️

Might just be me, but the fact a huge section of our southern food region is at record low rainfall should be receiving a little more coverage. It's the end of Autumn and dams throughout our area are still dry.
