Statement from Adam Bandt regarding the Labor candidate for Melbourne's resignation.
Greens Adam Bandt MP today said that the decision by the Labor candidate in Melbourne is the right one, and noted that the contest is now one between the Greens and the conservatives.
"Violence against women and sexual violence is unacceptable, in any circumstances. The decision of the Labor candidate to resign is the right one," Mr Bandt said.
"Melbourne is now a contest between the Greens and the conservatives, so if voters want to change the government and get real action on climate change, they need to vote Greens."
"I won't take this seat for granted. I will continue to campaign hard, talking to voters and seeking their support for my re-election right up to 6pm on election day."
