Annastacia Palaszczuk says she will begin discussions this week to ease restrictions on businesses but does not envisage the Queensland borders opening “anytime soon”. Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Ms Palazczuk said the state needed to "take it one step at a time” and would begin talks with hospitality tourism heads “to put in place our clear roadmap to recovery”.
“It is really important that once we have settled our plans for schools that now we can focus on our plan for Qld’s economic recovery including jobs,” she said. “We are looking at those recovery plans right across Qld, especially regional Qld as well as the south-east.” Five new coronavirus cases have been recorded in the state overnight with the Qld Chief Health Officer revealing three were acquired interstate.

Overhaul of migration an 'important dicussion' | Sky News AustraliaLabor backbencher Ed Husic insists there is an “important discussion to be had” on overhauling migration amid an internal tussle over the proposal. \n\nShadow Home Affairs Minister Kristina Keneally triggered the stoush at the weekend by aruging Australians must get a first go at jobs. \n\nSpeaking with Sky News, Mr Husic said the government’s current position to “import skills” was “non-sustainable in the long term”. \n\n'There is a discussion to be had about favouring permanent migration over temporary workers. Through this crisis we have seen temporary workers abanonded. They have been brought here in big numbers … and left to fend for themselves,” he said. \n\n'I think it is an important discussion to be had about the way in which migration is shaped into the long term and also taking into account the way the government has denied or held back opportuntiy for Australians from getting the skills they need to meet what employers want to see and they have just relied on the importation of skills instead of building them locally. ' Discussion 'can we be as xenophobic as ScoMo and Mr Potatohead?' 'No, but if we give it a crack we might win a few more votes from the voters who we all know to be yokels and rubes' It will be hard to introduce sound & logical strategies in the face of globalist Bolshevism 'Internal tussle' over the obvious.
