Qld 2020 Queensland Election - October 31

[NSWCROW]

Okay. Well now that you've copped to writing things you don't mean, Butler is a member of the Labor outrage brigade, wheeled out as needed to fire vitriolic broadsides at whichever electoral threat they face any particular week. Her and Di Farmer dogpiling Amy McMahon's volunteers to damage her campaign was truly dirty politics, and shows that several Labor Party figures can't take criticism without painting themselves as the victim.

Ah NOW we get to the meat

Watch some sky after dark to see an ACTUAL glass-jaw or 3 in action dude.



I've got no issue with your issues but at least stick the landing.

Everyone's a genius and a statesman compared to Sky After Dark. Using those blithering idiots as a benchmark is like measuring your ballroom dancing skills against Stephen Hawking's. I suppose there are a few politicians I can think of who are worse than Butler though.

Can't wait til Queensland votes the libs back in for the Federal because Scomo drove a bus or went to the cricket or some s**t

I pretty much called the election spot on.

I said the ALP would gain seats and it appears they have and comprehensively so.

The LNP's period in gov here from 2012 to early 2015 was an utter disgrace. Full of hubris and ego.

Still leaves an indelible mark on the psyche of all who lived here in Qld during that period.

An utter disgrace? Can Do was fantastic, exactly what Queensland needed (and still needs today).

I put Newman just below Joh because I can actually think of a couple of positives of Joh's reign - infrastructure and economic development. Plus as much as it makes me retch in his case, longevity does count for something when assessing leaders (I know, I know, Bjelkemander).

Pretty much everything else Joh did was IMO negative or at best dubious, but I can't think of a single positive thing Newman did.

Borbidge's government was poor, but he wasn't really damaging like Newman was.

Positives Campbell Newman did:
- cuts to the public service
- bikie laws
- asset sales
- cancelled Premier's literary awards
- investment in mining infrastructure
etc etc

Rough end of the pineapple: Queensland Labor moves to oust barefoot climate activist as Rockhampton mayor

Chris ‘Pineapple’ Hooper is due to be appointed after the winner of the mayoral election, Margaret Strelow, resigned over failing to declare Adani hospitality

And these entitled hacks will continue to complain about the Greens 'stealing' inner-city seats from 'progressive' Labor candidates.

Labor claims final Queensland seats from LNP in tight races

The party has claimed victory in the final two seats up for grabs in the wake of the state election, despite thin margins in both already sparking at least one recount.

Labor win Bundaberg by 11 votes and Nicklin by 79.

Damn, would you like some list with your padding?

LNP’s Crisafulli admits party HQ cut down past leader before election

The official probe into the LNP’s election loss in Queensland is expected to be released in weeks.

www.brisbanetimes.com.au

It's a very good thing that these jokers didn't get into power. At least Crisafulli was smart enough to realise he needed to become leader after the election, not before, since it was too late to pull off a victory.

Is that you Joel ?

no its drum roll.. hallow be thy name...

Nice touch by Clive to host a dinner on his boat ,on the Brissi River on election night,and invite LNP powerbrokers,past and present.
Deb was always a token, and if the new muppet thinks he is fully supported, he is dreaming.

A hobo on the street could run the State better than Labor and Palestine in Qld. They’re a hopeless rabble who have ****ed up everything they’ve touched.

Nice opinion, shame the voters don't agree.

You mean the bloated public service. We’re bankrupt. You don’t give out a 99 year lease on an island if everything is rosy. The State coffers are empty.

I don't think you know what bankrupt means.

Incredible that someone could live through 2020 and claim the state governance in Queensland was poor when there were perfectly good examples of what not to do in the two states below us.

2PP:
ALP: 53.2%
LNP: 46.8%

Geez, that's a seriously poor result for the LNP.

I thought that this would be a status quo ante election, but this looks more like 2019 AUS on steroids.

Shows you what happens when you actively go against what most of the electorate wants. ON too.
