The censure motion against the Premier is shaping as one of the most significant votes this Parliament has seen.

Looking at the numbers, it appears Labor, the Greens and several independents are prepared to support the motion. If that occurs, it would be difficult for the Government to avoid a historic censure.

This isn’t just about one issue. It comes after months of questions surrounding transparency, ministerial resignations, governance concerns, TT-Line, the stadium debate and growing public frustration over accountability.

A censure motion will not automatically remove a Premier from office, but it sends a powerful message that Parliament has lost confidence in the Government’s actions.

Regardless of where people stand politically, this vote is about accountability. Parliament exists to hold governments to account, and today Tasmania will see where every MP stands.

The numbers suggest this could be a very significant day in Tasmanian political history.

Great start keep pressure on

With Respect that some Tasmanians still support the Premier, and in a democracy people are entitled to their views. But I genuinely want to understand this:

After the concerns raised over major issues including transparency, trust, major project costs, and recent political controversies — what is it that still gives you confidence?

This is not an attack. I’m genuinely interested in hearing why some people continue to support the government, because healthy debate matters. Tasmania deserves honesty, accountability and leadership people can trust.

The Deloraine situation has certainly got people talking. I understand the school may need to expand, but if there are still people buried there, this raises some important questions about history, respect and community values. What do you think — should old burial grounds ever be built on, or should they be left untouched?

The reported location is the old Catholic burial ground connected to St Patrick’s Catholic School, around the school grounds in Deloraine (the burial site dates back to the 1800s).
