Federal Labor’s takeover of Tasmanian Labor is set to continue past 30 June, with Labor’s mainland overlords deciding they can’t trust Dean Winter to control his own State division.

Mr Winter only ended up as an MP after federal intervention*.

Federal party operatives are angry that Mr Winter forced an early election.

If his own Federal Party can’t trust Winter, Tasmanians can't either.
