It is now over a month since we went to the polls to elect the
Tasmanian Government for another four year term. Well we don't have a viable government yet.Just to remind everyone, we ended up with a cliffhanger with the minority Green party holding the balance of power between Labor and the conservative Liberals. Well Mc.Kim, the Greens leader has been haggling with the Bartlett government for a coalition . He initially rejected a ministry and said they deserved more. Well it turns out now that his partner,Cassy, who was also elected, has been offerred a position as cabinet secretary. Hang on that is nepotism?
Media outlets are hinting that this has divided the three other Green members. Oh what a mess! We did want a change but not this
charade.If this stalemate continues then we should go back to the ballot box.You don't have to be a rocket scientist to see that there will be a backlash against Labor and the Greens. I would not be
surprised also that a new political movement could emerge out
of this.Errol Stewart did try and organise a party
but it fizzled before commencing.
