In short:
The Greens leader says the party cannot support Labor Leader Dean Winter’s bid to become premier “at this stage”, criticising a lack of willingness to negotiate on key issues such as the proposed Hobart stadium, state budget and the environment.
Mr Winter has stood with his pick for treasurer — independent upper house member Ruth Forrest — and reiterated the need for “budget repair”, while saying the Greens are risking the Liberals back in power.
What’s next?
A motion of no confidence in Liberal premier Jeremy Rockliff’s government is expected to be moved when state parliament resumes next Tuesday.
