Queensland lockdown will ‘dent confidence’ for tourists: Liberal MP | Sky News AustraliaQueensland’s COVID lockdown will “dent some confidence” for the one-in-seven Australians planning to travel to the sunshine state over the Easter holidays, says Liberal MP Julian Simmonds.\n\nQueensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announced on Monday the state will be plunged into a three-day lockdown as of 5PM tonight.\n\nIt comes after research from Tourism and Events Queensland showed one-in-seven Australians were planning to travel to Queensland’s many holiday destinations over Easter injecting $1 billion into the economy.\n\nMr Simmonds said the projected cash injection projected would be “so needed” for the tourism and hospitality industries in Queensland as providers seek to recover from lost earnings in 2020.\n\n“The lockdown, regardless if it only lasts for 3 days or longer, is going to dent some confidence for those Easter holidays so I hope this is what we need to get on top of these cases,” he said.\n Just a reminder, countries such as Brazil with daily death tolls of 3,000+ started out with just a handful of cases. 'dent some confidence' = understatement of the year Confidence!!! What confidence!!! I'm struggling to move outside my suburb. I don't have money to travel now anyway. Disposable income is a thing of the past. Has anyone in our govt gone to the local shops lately to buy groceries!!

Security footage shows Queensland MP being knocked unconscious in barPolice have released security camera footage capturing the moment north Queensland politician Les Walker is knocked unconscious in a Townsville bar while celebrating his birthday. Might keep his hands to himself next time he’s out..... Take on public office and some think you automatically deserve to be treated like a punching bag. Doesn't look a 'coward' punch like he claims. He goes into their space, gets pushy, then shoves one of them hard. Gets punched in return. Not condoning the punch but it was clearly a response to his physical aggression. Can't tell what was being said of course.

How can that possibly be the outcome? auspol Surprise surprise- no accountability. Sick of hearing about men in power denying sexual offenses, keeping their jobs and facing zero consequences.
