The leader of the Greens, Adam Bandt, believes that the Australians will obtain a minority government after Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called an election for May 3.
“The election is underway. The minority government is coming,” journalists told a press conference today. .
“And with the main parties that offer as attractive as a dead fish, you can see why.”
The comment seemed to be a reference to the criticisms of greens to the agricultural legislation of Salmon of work. Senator of the Greens Sarah Hanson-Youngto highlight the opposition of his party to the legislation.

When asked if the greens would seek ministerial positions if they were part of a minority government, Bandt said: “The answer is no and no. The ministerial position is not our priority.”
“What the greens want in this choice is to maintain [Liberal leader] Peter Dutton comes out and gets the Labor acts. This is a real opportunity … get some real results for people. As enough of the rays by the edges. “
He said that the priority of the party is “to deliver a real change for people.”
“The last time there was a minority parliament, we obtained dentals in Medicare for children. That means that more than three million families throughout the country have been able to use their Medicare card in the dentist thanks to the greens,” he said.
“That is the exchange rate we are pressing.”
Bandt described the choice as an opportunity for “once in a generation.”
“Now, it is clear after this week, where the main parties found time to meet to gut our environmental and climatic laws, but they could not approve laws to clean the debt of the students or let it be free to see the GP, which we cannot continue voting for the same two parties and wait for a different result,” he said.
“Nothing changes if nothing changes. And with a minority government in the cards in this election, this is a unique opportunity in the generation of keeping Peter Dutton and making the laborists act on the housing crisis, the crisis of the cost of living and the climate and the environmental crisis.”
