It’s on: Ferguson goes to war with the Premier 01 November 2024

Tas Labor

It didn’t take long for backbencher Michael Ferguson to start bucking his head and causing internal problems for the Liberal Party and Premier Rockliff.

With the Ministerial shackles broken, the former Treasurer had strong words for the Premier, calling into question his integrity and backbone.

Battlelines have been drawn, it is believed Deputy Premier Barnett and Minister’s Ellis are likely to side with the former Treasurer.

This is yet more instability and chaos from Jeremy Rockliff’s government. 6,000 jobs have been lost since he first took Tasmania to minority government and business says it can’t trust him anymore.

After ten years the Liberals are completely falling apart.
