Labor’s Murray Watt has accused the Greens of deliberately misleading voters in the tightly contested Queensland seat of Griffith by distributing flyers in Liberal party blue that describe Max Chandler-Mather as an “independent voice”.

The flyers, seen by Guardian Australia, are light blue and read: “If you want a strong independent voice, preference Max Chandler-Mather above Labor”.
