"The stadium was already a bad idea when this year’s deficit was forecast at $300 million... But with the budget now another $1.2 billion worse off, bulldozing ahead with this project would be absolutely cooked." - @VicaBayley #politas

"For the sake of all those who were victims of Paul Reynolds, its crucial we see a Government response that accepts the review’s recommendations, seeks to answer the remaining questions, & provides redress for victim-survivors." - @rosaliewoodruff #politas

"There is no doubt that poker machines operating unchecked for another 18 months will result in deep and serious harm to Tasmanians and the community. The least the government could do is to step in with urgent interim measures." - @vicabayley #politas
