Tasmanian Premier Jeremy Rockliff toppled in no confidence vote

Published
A no confidence motion in the Tasmanian premier has been successful. It means the state is likely headed to another election, just over a year after voters last went to the polls to elect the state parliament. The motion was introduced by Labor leader Dean Winter, who cited ballooning debt and proposed privatisation of public assets among his reasons. SBS Tasmania Correspondent Kerrin Thomas filed this report from Hobart.
