Earlier (corrected) the Liberals had registered a TassieDoc website!.

. also that he says that it was "unconstitutional" for Labor to refuse to form government with the Greens after the no-confidence motion. Way too much of this Hung Parliament Club nonsense out there, much of which seems to emenate indirectly from Underwood's 2010 reasons.

#politas After putting this up I was tipped off that Garland had appeared in a Michael Gray Griffith video. Video had none of what I expected to see after watching Griffith + Sladden and for nearly all of it Garland comes across very well. Except for claim below and . .

🍿🍿🍿.Paul Lennon registers business name "TasInsure", because the Liberals . did not do that. #politas.

Between him formally leaving the party and it deregistering, if he was still involved with the party would he then have been an Independent Independents for Canberra MP a la Independent Labor/Liberal ?.

Independents for Canberra deregisters as a party sometime after its sole MLA resigns from party and sits as an independent. #actpol.

Second one is that it is not correct the Greens, on any possible numbers, can force Dean Winter to be Premier. At least not for any period of time. Any person appointed Premier who did not wish to serve in the circumstances could simply resign.

Here is a statement of correct convention by Anne Twomey from The Veiled Sceptre. "unless he or she requests and is granted a dissolution". Rockliff requested and was granted. His actions were entirely in accordance with convention.

First thing here; there is not a convention that a Premier in whom a no confidence motion is passed must resign full stop. Many state Premiers in such a case (including Holgate 1982) have sought an election as an alternative. One (Lawson Vic 1921) even did so and won! #politas.

#DemosAU 59-41 to ALP with miserable Coalition primary. More evidence in favour of Labor still being in second honeymoon (re-elected govts don't always get one but they tend to if they overperform expectations).

Questions put in an agree/disagree format are prone to acquiescence bias, would be better to give respondents a choice of two statements. Breakdowns by party support are of some interest though. #politas.

Craig Garland just said I said he had no chance of winning in Braddon 2024. This was not true at any time, there were times I thought he was unlikely to get up. See postcount thread #politas.

Blocked @iluvcolonialism . Of course with a username like that racism can be taken for granted, they're also sexist, homophobic, hypocritical and an extremely poor debater.

Do they? Would be interested to see how they are supposed to meet the new "dominant purpose" test. #politas

#Newspoll finds Victorian voters are worried about everything. #springst.

Do the Tasmanian Nationals support "an urgent review of gender self ID laws and on all gender transition treatments to minors AND young adults." as espoused by one of their candidates last year?.

Voters are entitled to know where the Nationals stand on these matters. Especially given one of their candidates was involved in a notorious anti-gay fliers incident in 2013 and last year called for an "immediate urgent review" of Tasmanian gender ID laws. #politas.

Will the Tasmanian Nationals be responding to this survey? The Liberals have. #politas.
