Queensland election Jan 31 2015

What corruption are you claiming.....Is it more than the previous Labor government...Gordon Nuttal is still in jail just to name one.

Did any of the Newman government MP's go to jail?

I'd highlight three things: the attempt to neuter the CMC, stopping the prosecution of an LNP donor and the shenanigans that went on with mining licenses.

Here we go again...More union thugs on construction sites to cause more disruption = less chance of more buildings = higher unemployment.

Well done Ms. Palaszczuk....you are about to stuff Queensland following in the foot steps of Bligh.

Still waiting to hear how you will pay back the $80 billion Beattie/Bligh debt

Oh Billy what have you done? Bish bash ... trial by media

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk, who was set to sack Mr Gordon before he resigned from Labor, and the LNP Opposition both called on the Cape York-based MP to quit parliament over the allegations.

But Mr Gordon has stood firm and Labor will need his support next week when Parliament resumes for the first time since he left the party.

Identity, ethnicity, race, culture and not the least, heritage all play out for this guy. There a few taboos in those that restrict open journalism and mean the media trial is based on sensationalism, bias, mischief, gossip and politics.

He is showing his true believer credentials by not ratting on Labor because they showed him the door.... very old skool.

And that's how the fight began ..........

THE Cook MP was forced out of the Labor party in March over allegations of domestic abuse, unpaid child support and tax avoidance and his failure to declare undisclosed criminal convictions to the party.
Around that time, Mr Gordon told parliament he had rectified his tax situation and had caught up in his child support payments.
But in another personal explanation to parliament on Tuesday, Mr Gordon conceded he still owed $24.13 to his ex-partner Kristy Peckham for child support.

Qld MPs reject voting change

http://www.news.com.au/national/bre...ct-voting-change/story-e6frfku9-1227337694589

But Mr Gordon and the two Katter's Australian Party MPs voted against the motion to side with Labor, meaning it was defeated 46 votes to 42.

So all is well in QLD politics again ... Pffffffffffttttttttttttttttttt

Apparently Campbell was busy giving the go ahead on questionable projects while in caretaker election mode.

I wonder if the govt will pursue shonky deals through the police or if they will do the same as all Labor ghosts of the past and do nothing

Good money for a Labor hack who got the job by proxy ...

Queensland's generously-rewarded premier is set to earn more than the leaders of China, India and Russia combined this year.
The Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal has recommended a $6445 raise for Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk, taking her annual pay to $385,605.
That's about $116,000 more than the combined salaries of Russian President Vladimir Putin ($194,480), Chinese President Xi Jingping ($31,391) and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi ($43,345) in 2015.
Few world leaders will take home more money than Ms Palaszczuk this year.
They include the Singapore PM, Hong Kong chief executive, US president and Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull.

Really trainspotter ?:frown:

Surely journos have something better to do than try to emulate that idiot, Bolt's style of fishwifery

The accidental Premier has not done herself any favours ...

Mr Springborg singled out Queensland Council of Unions president John Battams, whom he described as a “Labor apparatchik”, being appointed as a Queensland Investment Corporation director.

Only a Murdoch hack can concoct a BS beat-up like that.
If I needed another reason to give their manipulative rags a wide berth, this would do.
