Labor tension as Tasmanian MP calls for party 'that can win'
Key points
- Tasmanian Labor leader Josh Willie says he is staying on despite internal friction over Braddon MP Shane Broad's online posts.

- He called for a Labor party able to win a majority of seats.
- Broad lost the 2021 leadership contest to David O'Byrne, and it is unclear whether he has support from other MPs or members to mount another challenge.
