why would anyone vote for corrupt politicians backed by their fake news media giants - all in collusion to lie to the people.

The best thing about a result like this is it will hasten the departure of North Queensland as a separate state. We are governed by idiots in Brisbane who do not care about anything North of Caboolture and that has to stop.

Confusion and uncertainty around Qld border reopening | Sky News AustraliaThe Palaszczuk government's decision to open up its borders to NSW, but restrict residents from Greater Sydney from travelling to Queensland is creating confusion and uncertainty for people intending to travel north.\n\nFor those living outside of the Sydney basin, they may resume travel to Qld from November 3, but questions have been raised about what constitutes the permissible zone around the edges of Greater Sydney. \n\nResidents would not be permitted to enter Qld if they had travelled to Sydney in a 14-day period unless they entered the state to attend Sydney Airport.\n\nSydneysiders are not restricted from travelling to regional parts of NSW, given the state has no restrictions internally, posing concerns about asymptomatic carriers of the virus.\n\nThe malleability of the Palaszczuk government's restrictions - including the re-closing of borders to NSW if cases entered Qld - has cast doubts on Prime Minister Scott Morrison's hopes of no internal borders by Christmas.\n\n\n Only for dumb people It's only confusing for News Corp, not anyone else.

Labor Party has been a 'victim of its own success': Joel Fitzgibbon | Sky News AustraliaLabor frontbencher Joel Fitzgibbon says his party has been “victims of our own success” as a recent research paper revealed Labor received more votes from those who went to university, than those who did not, while the opposite was true for the Liberal party.\n\nA recent paper from The Australian Population Research Institute revealed that over the past two decades an average on 55 per cent of people who did not go to university voted for right leaning parties like the Liberals and 54 per of people who went to university voted for Labor or the Greens. \n\nSky News host Andrew Bolt said, “it's now, simplifying, the liberals who are the party of the working man and woman. Labor who represent the elites.”\n\nMr Bolt spoke with Labor frontbencher Joel Fitzgibbon who, fourteen years ago, warned Labor was being 'torn between the new left, the wealthy, people who hate industry and the old Labor, the country Labor.\n\n“I’m comfortable with the fact that we’ve been, in a sense, the Labor party, victims of our own success,” Mr Fitzgibbon said.\n\n“The reforms of the Hawke-Keating years transformed the economy and gave opportunity that people would not have dreamed of previously.\n\n“Many of the, for example, blue collar workers we traditionally represented are now on pretty good incomes, living in nice homes, they often have negatively geared second properties, they have a boat or a jet ski.\n\n “You’ve now got this divide between those with assets, which are exposed to the market, they have superannuation investment, again, the legacy of the Labor years, they might have investments separately in the share market for example, and they aspire to continue to build wealth.\n\n“We have to be the party of aspiration, we have to give them every opportunity to meet those aspirations, but at the same time, we need to ensure we remain the party of lower paid workers, which are more typically found now unfortunately in the services sector, in the childcare sector and the aged care sect fitzhunter So educated folks don't vote LNP or watch Sky 'News' 🤔 fitzhunter He only just held his seat in a typical labor stronghold area. From all reports on the ground his not going to keep it next time but we'll wait n see. Joel will say whatever he thinks is popular until it's not then he swings like a gate in the wind, hard and fast. fitzhunter Success ? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
