Labor learns nothing - still joined to the Greens' hip

Bryan Green has shown in Parliament today that Labor remains joined at the hip to the Greens, and is in lockstep with radical environmentalists.

Labor continues in its opposition to the Liberal Government's efforts to protect Tasmanian workers.

Labor not only went into government with the Greens, it failed to act when protesters repeatedly stopped law-abiding Tasmanians from earning a living.

And at the March election Tasmanians made very clear what they thought of Labor selling out to the Greens.

Five months on and Labor has learnt nothing.

Our Workplaces (Protection from Protesters) Bill is about  protecting the right of Tasmanians to go to work to earn a living for their families.

Clearly, Labor is more interested in remaining wedded to the Greens than in protecting the rights of Tasmanian workers.
