The Liberals cut $1.6 billion from health in Tasmania over 7 years. Don’t give the Liberals 11 years of running Tasmania’s hospitals into the ground.

CONFIRMED: The Liberal Candidate for Bass is happy to be on Scott Morrison’s team.
A vote for any Tasmanian Liberal is a vote for three more years of Scott Morrison.

The Premier claims he wasn't in the room when

voted to sell the ABC.
Who is this playing on his phone at the end of the row as Eric Abetz applauds when the vote is carried?
Did you just mislead Parliament, Premier?

We need to get more Tasmanians into jobs, improve access to health care, make sure people have a place to call home and rebuild TAFE.

Today

visited Tasmania to meet with those working on the front line of the fires and to say thank you.
To all our volunteers, emergency service workers, and affected communities who have been incredibly resilient we say thank you and we stand with you.
The housing waitlist in Tasmania is the worst it's ever been. Families in urgent need are waiting nearly 2 years for a home. This is what 10 years of Liberal government have done for Tasmania.
#politas
10 years ago Tasmania was the most affordable state for housing. Now, it's the least affordable.
If the Liberals haven't fixed it in 10 years, they never will.
Labor completely supports drought relief funding for Flinders Island, but what kind of leader waits until farmers are shooting their animals so they don’t starve to death before they ride in on a plane with a photographer to provide some relief?

Labor will invest $3 million in heritage rail projects across Tasmania. We'll establish a Tasmanian Rail Access Coordinator or TRAC.

This is Jeremy Rockliff's "Strong Plan" for Tasmania. A blank book. An empty web page. There is no plan, because his tired, decade-old government is out of ideas.
If they haven't fixed things by now, they never will.
#politas
Two promises of stable, majority government. Two early elections when it all fell apart. Why would you give the Liberals a third chance to let Tasmania down?
#politas
Labor’s plan for jobs will make sure more Tasmanians can get into work and stay in work.
Labor will invest in skills and training, rebuild TAFE, support small business and invest in infrastructure to support our social and economic recovery.

Election day.
Good luck to

Only one party will fix the health crisis and give Tasmanians a government that’s on their side – and that’s

State and Federal Labor are united on Tasmania's share of the GST. Our state will not be worse off under Labor.
@WillHodgman
and
@TurnbullMalcolm
are refusing to make that promise before the state election.

The Liberals' cuts to health have cost lives.
This Saturday you can use your vote to elect a Majority Labor Government that will make fixing the Liberals' health crisis our number one priority.
The Liberal Member for Bass could have voiced her support for a strong anti-corruption commission today but failed to do so.
It just goes to show a vote for the Liberal Member for Bass is a vote for Scott Morrison.
Only Labor will deliver a strong anti-corruption commission.
Polls are now closed! Thank you to everyone who supported Labor and our campaign, campaigns are nothing without their supporters and we have had many fantastic ones.

Scott Morrison always fails to deliver for Tasmania. A vote for the Liberals in Tasmania is a vote for three more years of Scott Morrison. It's a risk Tasmania can't afford to take.
Labor will implement the state’s first ever catch-up learning program, with qualified tutors to provide extra reading, writing and maths coaching to all students who need it.

Thinking about how the Premier made an ad about his government's achievements over the last 10 years, and the best he could come up with was an unfinished bridge and a couple of boats that are still to come.

The Tasmanian Liberals’ promised upgrades to the RHH are exactly the same ones they promised last election. And failed to deliver. After 10 years, even they concede that they're completely out of new ideas.

The Liberals are being deliberately dishonest about Labor's commitment to mental health. Tasmanians deserve an honest debate, not spin and lies.
