The latest newspoll released by The Australian has indicated Queensland Labor is a clear frontrunner against the LNP in the leadup to the state's election on October 31.
The poll found 43 per cent of Queenslanders were confident Annastacia Palaszczuk would be more effective in creating jobs over the next four years than LNP Leader Deb Frecklington, who received 23 per cent in the poll. Labor also led the LNP 52 per cent to 48 per cent on a two party preferred basis. Jobs confidence marked a key aspect of the upcoming election as the Gold Coast lost five per cent of its workforce between March and September this year, while employment in Brisbane dropped 4.

Queensland isn't in a hard lockdown like Victoria is, but the state still has a higher unemployment rate, which has increased by 1.3% during the coronavirus.

Who wants to make a bet? she will increase restrictions once elected again?

Steven Miles labels LNP economic plan after kid’s storybook ‘The Magic Pudding’ | Sky News AustraliaPremier Annastacia Palaszczuk has been seen cuddling koala’s at a Queensland zoo as her deputy, Steven Miles, ramps up the rhetoric against the LNP, comparing the party’s economic plan to children’s story ‘The Magic Pudding’. \n\nMr Miles said Labor’s economic plan was “detailed and costed” in contrast to the LNP’s plan which he compared to children’s storybook ‘The Magic Pudding’ by Norman Lindsay.\n\n“I can reveal the LNP’s secret plan. It’s been around a while now. It’s longer than I remember it from when I was a kid. But it’s ‘The Magic Pudding’,' he said.\n\nHowever, Deputy Opposition Leader Tim Mander hit back at Mr Miles, describing the Labor politician as “an embarrassment to the state of Queensland”.\n\nThe state election campaign has reached the halfway mark as both leaders target undecided voters in the southeast of the state. \n\nHowever, the latest Newspoll released hours before pre-polling begins has given Labor Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk the edge over Opposition Leader Deb Frecklington. \n\nMs Frecklington has promised voters Queensland businesses will be first in line for government contracts in food, manufacturing and medical supplies as part of the LNP’s procurement mandate as the party seek to pick up nine seats. \n AnnastaciaMP Can’t believe people accept someone so aggressive and unpleasant AnnastaciaMP AnnastaciaMP We’re paying for this CHILD ! This is the quality we get for our money. DISGRACEFUL StevenJMiles, GROW UP !

Fail.... Hold China accountable then decoupling CCP! The evil DOES NOT deserve us!
