PRESS RELEASE FROM THE OFFICE OF THESENSIBLECENTRE

This ANCAP Government is hanging on by a thread. Bellman made his #DealWithTheDevil, working with a cabal of unaccountable independents, and now it's blown up in his face with the farcical death of one of his MPs.

With the government hanging on by a thread, there is now space for a rational, centre-left party to take power. We will win the upcoming Canberra by-election, and we will use that platform to deliver a centre-left government that governs for all Australians.

It is time for the Australian Labour Party to step into the sun. Right now, with the government hanging on by a thread, we have a real opportunity to make serious change. Let's make it happen. Let's govern for all Australians.

QUOTES ATTRIBUTABLE TO THESENSIBLECENTRE

"This government is hanging on by a thread. Soon, they will be destroyed."

"The centre-left is waiting in the wings to form a government of all Australians, not this top-end-of-town handout bonanza from Bellman."

"If Bellman wants us to provide confidence and supply, he should give me a call, and I will insist on terms that make the government one for all Australians."
