20/10/2020Resources Minister Keith Pitt says while Annastacia Palaszczuk's hard stance on borders was very popular in Queensland, it was leading to the "worst unemployment rate in the country" and was affecting whether businesses could get back to work.
Mr Pitt also noted lockdowns in Victoria were affecting business supply chains around the country stating some businesses had a terrible quarter despite peak demand because some manufacturers operated out of Melbourne. "No supply means no sales, means no jobs," he said.
keithjpitt AnnastaciaMP Shocked to read another anti-Labor story from a fake news organisation.
keithjpitt AnnastaciaMP Sadly! 3MAD PREMIERS (MarkAnnaDan) used dictatorships to impose 3MAD border closures too long that caused human isolation & mental illness, job loss & totally economic destructions. Besides, they also caused Australia facing 3 unconstitutional states that diving people & nation🇦🇺

keithjpitt AnnastaciaMP While Scott Morrison drags us backwards, world leaders are stepping up and backing the industries of tomorrow. Right now there's a battle raging inside the Morrison Government about whether to renew the license for this crazy proposal for a massive gasfield 4,500 sq km off Sydney
keithjpitt AnnastaciaMP So if job losses are the states responsibility, does that make job creation theirs as well? Of does that go to the Feds?
keithjpitt AnnastaciaMP I hear roops is cutting your head off at the ankles pretty soon, skyisshit ?

We’re supposed to be at 20 per cent and then we catch them in the final days like a racehorse.' \n\nReflecting on the 2016 election, Mr Trump said he was down in nine states which he ultimately won.\n\n“They said this will be a very poor day for Donald Trump,' he said. \n\n“Then at the end of the evening you saw them cry.\n\n“15 days from now we are going to win the state of Arizona and we are going to win four more years in the White House.' \n realDonaldTrump Here’s to Justice. realDonaldTrump He is squibbing it already. realDonaldTrump Setting up the excise for if he loses and it will all be forgotten about if he wins.

Newspoll: Qld Labor leading LNP 52 per cent to 48 per cent | Sky News AustraliaThe 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. \n\nThe 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. \n\nLabor also led the LNP 52 per cent to 48 per cent on a two party preferred basis. \n\nJobs 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 4.7 per cent. \n Who wants to make a bet? she will increase restrictions once elected again? A vote for QLD Labor will be a vote for future Victorian style lockdown. Good. We don't need the LNP destroying the state with their bullshit.

Australia needs to 'wake up to these freaking premiers': Murray | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Paul Murrays says Australia needs to “wake up to these freaking premiers” who are telling you who you can see and you cannot see.\n\nHis comment comes after Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews, and Western Australian Premier Mark McGowan both expressed their dismay at the arrival of New Zealand residents in their states. \n\n“We’re not particularly pleased that we were asked a question, ‘do you want to be in the bubble’ and turns out even though we said no, we are,” Mr Andrews said.\n\n“These people who are standing in the way of your ability to see your families, see your friends, to determine your own future, because they want to play daddy,” Mr Murray said. \n\n“These politicians think the harder and the more daddy they are, the more popular they come.\n\n“Would you vote for a government who promises to tell you in the next four years, if you’re dying you can’t see your kids?\n\n“Because that’s what’s on the ballot paper.”\n The Covid Dictators: Mission Collapse State economies. Correct never vote Labour or greens again if you want peace and freedom Yes Thankyou Paul Murray! Hopefully High Court challenge result for WA borders on Nov 4th, allows borders to be re-open.

The decision 20m Aussies hateOf all the rules that Australia’s states and territories have introduced since the COVID-19 pandemic struck seven months ago, Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk’s hard border closure has been one of the most contentious. If Scomo continues to avoid making decisions I’ll follow what the premiers say. Anything to avoid the killing fields of the USA Not sure how accurate the claim of 'hated by 20m Aussies' is. WA, NT, SA and Tasmania couldn't give a stuff about it, and I'm sure most QLD residents are in agreeance. natalieisbrown I like how WA has strict border controls but no one bats an eyelid at them, must just be easier to go after a female premier than a male one I guess 😏
