When will Bryan Green Finally take responsibility for the thousands of forest deal job losses?
 

Tuesday 17 September 2013

Bryan Green needs to take responsibility for the thousands of job losses that have flowed since he signed off on the disastrous forestry deal.

Since the deal was done, the unemployment rate has increased by 65 per cent.

Former Labor members Dick Adams, Sid Sidebottom and Geoff Lyons all said the disastrous forestry deal that Mr Green foisted on Tasmania was responsible for the Labor rout in Tasmania at the Federal election last Saturday.

It’s time Mr Green took responsibility for the job losses he has caused, or is he saying that Mr Adams, Mr Sidebottom and Mr Lyons and the voters of Tasmania got it wrong?
