Premier Palaszczuk has almost bankrupted Queensland, and now in the middle of a crisis they want to buy an airline. It is laughable. She “leads” a government which is corrupt and chaotic.
I'm sure flood victims will take comfort in the knowledge that Scott Morrison is investing in hypersonic missiles instead of flood recovery.

So Scott Morrison reckons his weakness is that he cares too much. Must have missed that during the flood disaster, the vaccine rollout disaster, the bushfire disaster, the aged care disaster...

Scott Morrison has deserted Queensland flood victims, refusing to co-fund our $741m flood recovery package. This package would have helped thousands of Queenslanders rebuild their lives. The Prime Minister's response: that's not my problem.

Annastacia Palaszczuk reunited Queensland after the damage wrought by the sacking and cuts of the LNP.
She protected Queensland from the ravages of COVID so that we emerged with a strong economy and record jobs growth.
This is a disgusting lie and you’re just trying to cover up your unfunded election commitment and the fact you’re going to sack child safety officers and make them take a pay cut. Do better.

QLD’s Deputy Premier just told Parliament Labor won’t invest in the safety of children because "there's no commercial return on child protection".
This is what Labor thinks of investing in the safety of children and why the system is broken.

Peter Dutton made that clear again this week. David Crisafulli will follow this plan and cut frontline services.

We're the only state in Australia that's put back on every job lost since COVID lockdowns were introduced in March – plus 500 more!
That means there are more people working in Queensland now than before the pandemic hit.

Big businesses like large supermarkets and banks have done well out of COVID. Many were supported with grants such as JobKeeper even when they were profitable. These businesses are well placed to chip in towards mental health services, and they now will in Queensland.
It's clear Scott Morrison has made a political calculation. He's decided he doesn’t need Queensland flood victims to vote for him, so he has nothing to offer them.

Great news ahead of bushfire season – the LAT is coming back ✈️
In a landmark partnership between the Queensland and Victorian Governments, a Large Air Tanker will be shared by our states for the next four years to help us battle blazes year round.
The LNP want to scrap our world leading renewables investment and replace it with risky and expensive nuclear energy.
Nuclear will make power more expensive for Queenslanders and will leave Queensland as a dumping ground for nuclear waste.
We can’t take that risk.

The first foundation has been poured at the largest wind farm in the southern hemisphere, right here in Queensland.
When completed the MacIntyre Wind Precinct’s 180 turbines will generate 1,026MW of renewable electricity, enough power for the equivalent of 700,000 homes.
Can it really be 20 years? 20 years of adventure, love and happiness. A story I could have only written with you. And the best is yet to come! I can’t wait for the next 20, darling. ❤️
Dr Jeannette Young has saved lives with her expert advice and decisive action.
She's guided our state through the pandemic, and will continue to serve so well as our next governor.
Thank you for making Queensland better every day 💐
As England enters a third lockdown, it's another reminder that although our border and COVID restrictions haven't been easy, they've been effective.
I want to thank Queenslanders for continuing to follow the health advice. You're the reason we're able to enjoy days like this.
Scott Morrison's net zero 'plan' is to leave the states doing the heavy lifting while trying to take the credit for the outcome.
Just like his response to the pandemic.

We won’t be lectured to by the LNP, who closed down power stations because prices were too cheap, and had our publicly owned energy operators cut staff and cut corners for their own political agenda when they were last in Government.
