Victoria's Police high command need to pay the price for their brutal overreach during COVID. I never thought we would see such scenes in this country. And I can't but help contrast it with the situation now where they are incapable of dealing with gangs and teenage crims.

We shut the forests to save the environment & now we import timber from Europe. The fishing licences were bought out, & now we import seafood. NSW & Vic have killed the gas industry, & now we are going to import LNG. But don't worry about Net Zero. What could possibly go wrong?

In 1987 I protested in Bne against the Australia Card that John Howard & @LiberalAus also opposed. This week a snr @QldPolice Offr (wrongly) insisted that people should carry & produce ID. Now politicians are seeking to impose "Vaccination Passports". Dark days for freedom in Aus

Of course Dr Chant "would prefer a 70% vaccination rate". That's because Covid-19 cases are the only KPI that she has. Grown up politicians, providing real leadership, must consider mental health, children's education, cancer screening, livelihoods........etc.etc. as well.

Queensland $130bn in debt. Slow, slow, slow hand clap to the people who can't manage money, run hospitals properly, keep kids safe, deal with criminal gangs or youth offenders or build the economy. Well done @QLDLabor you are truly champions

Unprecedented bushfires? I don't think so. Try Nov 1926, Nov 1953, Nov 1956. Takes 5 minutes to find on National Library of Australia digitised newspapers database. Check out 25 Nov 1956:

So if you are double vaccinated, and come in to Queensland from a hot spot (which may differ from the Fed Govt view), you still have to do 14 days home quarantine. Bluntly @AnnastaciaMP this isn't opening up anything. It's a charade.

To to all @QldPolice officers. @LibDemAus say NO to mandatory vaccination in the service. We stand with you against this overreach by Govt. (Oh by the way, @ScottMorrisonMP has written to citizens saying vax won't be compulsory, so why is this happening?)

If every 4WD club, fishing group, caravanning & camping organisation and tradies nationwide mobilise, this policy will be dead on arrival. Australia, its time to stand up and speak up against this move by @Bowenchris to force you out of the vehicles that you enjoy for work and

You have completely lost the plot @Bowenchris . This is going to drive car prices higher and put even more load on a grid that is becoming more and more unstable. #auspol

Announcing the "two for two" preference deal with @CliveFPalmer & @CraigKellyMP . Australia's future & the need for #realleadership are more important than past disagreements. We stand ready to co-operate with other minor parties in this nations best interests.

Memo to all politicians across Australia. If we can't even make toilet paper competitively in this country it underlines the crisis that we face. High energy costs, ridiculous levels of regulation, a rigid IR framework and lengthy approval times to get anything through

At least there are some in the coalition that understand that this Bill is monstrous, that it is a pathway to totalitarianism. A shout out to @mattjcan and @SenatorAntic who understand how dangerous a moment this is.

The Labor government is cynically using “the current thing” to push its monstrous Misinformation Bill. I do not support these incursions on free speech and will not support the Misinformation Bill. Last night I discussed the matter with Chris Kenny on Sky News. To hear more

This incompetent Govt of Annastacia Palaszczuk has been in office for 7 years. 7 years to build more coal or gas fired capacity or for that matter reliable renewables generation. If the lights go off tonight, take a bow Premier. It's your fault!
