As the Liberals spruik a key election promise. This is day one and it’s great to be here reinforcing our commitment. That is coming to realisation and that’s our stamping out stamp duty policy. Premier Jeremy Rockliff says he’s got a guarantee from independent David O’burn, giving him the numbers to deliver his promises and stay in power. He’s provided that written assurance of confidence and supply and I appreciate David for doing that. But unlike the agreement with the Jackie Lambie Network, it’s not a done deal yet. In a statement, the former Labour leader says he intends to provide confidence and supply, but won’t be signing up to any agreement that limits his ability to stand up for what matters. I welcome the constructive nature of which David O’burn is the new independent member for Franklin is going about his business on behalf of the people of Tasmania while the Premier focuses on deals with other parties. A call to expel Franklin branch chair Brendan Bromley from the Liberal Party continues to cause issues internally. Branch members last night voting to reinstate him and declare no confidence in the party’s president unless the decision is reversed. He might have to worry about crossbench members and the Jacqui Lambie Network, but he’s got problems within his own side. Tasmania aren’t interested in the politics of this, they just want us to get on with the job. A government hoping to make good on more promises and minimise disputes.
