Eric Abetz, Leader of the House

In a slap in the face to Tasmanians, faceless Labor operatives have decided who should represent Tasmania in the Senate.

Due to Tasmanian Labor being unable to be trusted to manage their own Party, the long-standing national administration of Labor has selected Tasmania's next Senator.

This is a massive insult to everyday Tasmanians not to be able to have any input into who represents them in Canberra.

It is understood that the selected candidate for the Senate also breached Labor Party rules in 2024.

As recently reported by the ABC, it is understood that Mr Josh Dolega supported independent candidate, David O’Byrne during the 2024 State Election, in breach of Labor Party rules 2.6 and 2.13.

It is understood that an investigation into Mr Dolega’s breach of Party rules has been swept under the carpet by the faceless mainland-based controllers of the Tasmanian Labor Party.

This is another blow to Mr Winter, who is understood to have vocally supported one of his staff members during the Senate selection.

If the faceless mainland men who control the Tasmanian Labor Party can't trust Mr Winter, then everyday Tasmanians can’t either.
