Vic Greens unfazed by Lib preferencing

The Greens say it's no surprise the Liberal Party will preference them last in the Victorian election and they plan to win in their own right.

Premier Denis Napthine on Thursday said the Liberal Party will as a general rule preference the Greens last in all seats, saying they were bad for the economy and bad for Victoria.

Melbourne Greens candidate Ellen Sandell said it was not surprising the Liberals had endorsed the Labor candidate for the seat, Jennifer Kanis.

"We've always planned to win without preferences within our own right, just like Adam Bandt did with a seven per cent swing," she told AAP.

"It's not really any surprise that Labor and Liberal are colluding to try and keep the Greens out but we know we can win without them.

"It's also no surprise that Napthine and Abbott would prefer to have a Labor MP here in Melbourne rather than the Greens because they know that Labor will roll over on the East West toll road, they'll roll over on privatisation of TAFE, they won't shut down our dirtiest coal power stations and replace them with renewables."
