Tasmanian Labor Opposition Supports New Taxes

Tasmanian Government

The Labor Opposition promised $4 billion in new spending at the 2024 election and pledged $2 billion in cuts to essential services and important infrastructure projects. This included nearly $200 million to be cut from health services.

The question at the time was where the other $2 billion was coming from.

Today, the Opposition Treasury spokesperson was conspicuously quiet about Labor's plans to increase taxes on hard-working Tasmanians and small business owners.

Make no mistake, the Tasmanian Labor Opposition would follow their Victorian counterparts and raise taxes to the detriment of everyday Tasmanians.

It seems Tasmanian Labor plans to rip $500 million per year from the pockets of Tasmanians and small businesses.

Tasmanians cannot afford the Labor opposition's cruel tax grab.

Only the Tasmanian Liberal Government, with its 2030 Strong Plan for Tasmania's Future, is providing real cost of living relief while delivering the services Tasmanians deserve.
