Narjen53 The corporately owned media is always concerned about Union issues and promotes and treats all Union matters with equal weight. Luck Australia has people like Murdoch to look out for the ordinary worker in this country. Australia is so lucky to have a vibrant union movement

Less cops driving around trying to get mobile phone users ect.. use them for more series crimes.

Would not want to interrupt their Coffee or Social Media time! Gee, do I have to work?

I've never seen a police department waste so much money & resources for next to no gain than QldPolice. As a business model, it stinks. When we finally have another ICAC or enquiry into corruption here in QLD, widespread corruption WILL be uncovered within QldPolice & qldpol

Well we have had a Labor Govt for 2 terms now, and as a direct result of this, crime is totally out of control, young criminals are released within sometimes the same shift of the officer who arrested them, Labor soft on crime

I think this explains why. FACT

Then we need the means to defend ourselves

Well why the hell are QldPolice wasting so many resources on the useless & extremely expensive 'War on drugs' then? They send 12 officers around to 1 house to harass someone for cannabis use, FFS! Repeal prohibition & police will have the resources to fight real crime. qldpol

Is that why it takes 8 hours to open a motorway after a simple nose to tail? How are you gonna get more speeding revenue if all the motorways are stopped?

Honestly who would be one? Working for an extortion cartel, wearing a Corporate Costume & suffering from schizophrenia & paranoia. Committing perjury & falsfying Statements, planting evidence. I guess many honest moral ethical people don’t want to be corrupted!

Well put more on. AnnastaciaMP rakes in 5 billion a year in royalties, where’s all the money? Ooh wait coppers too busy booking people for jay walking, setting up speed cameras those important offences that make more money.
