LOVED JOH.

You must have loved the brown paper bags full of money that changed hands regularly and the rampant corruption.

You must have loved the gerrymander that made him Premier with as little as 20% of the vote. With the Bjelkemander, the Liberals were robbed just as much as Labor because they consistently outpolled the Nationals but won fewer seats.

Nah,

Joh died almost bankrupt . only ever owned his farm (Bethany).

he was a god fearing man and a man of principles.

compare his wealth after 30 years in parliament to that of Russ Hinze who owned about 15 pubs, 6 massive properties on the gold coast,

Joh didn't even draw super, one of the few politicians who refused it.
great man....legend

Well Acquascoot..!! ..he didn't NEED a superannuation pension.. plus it made him look good.

Nothing GOOD can really be said about JOH. OH OH right ..he helped his mates, regardless of the consequences for Queensland. Sound familiar?

Did you happen to see 7.30 on ABC Queensland tonight?.

Mr Tony Fitzgerald gave his first actual media interview regarding his views, virtually since the results of the Fitzgerald Enquiry was announced.. 20+ yrs ago. Lets just say.. he was very cautious with his words. ( Doesn't want to be sued by the premier).
But his comments on the actions of this govt, particularly in relation to Law, and GOOD GOVERNANCE were particularly telling.

He expressed the view that the last Premier of Queensland to hold to the integrity necessary for good governance was WAYNE GOSS.
And I tell you what Asscootie and fellows ..he'd know .. much more about the facts than the likes of YOU.

Do hope you caught it.

well doh doh doh.

or
shaddup, Shazza I'm waxing the glovebox of the Kingswood.

(you remember that AUSSIE show) ??

Maybe you don't.

But I remember the past.. just a few yrs ago really. It was a foul thing that happened here in QLD, and many innocent people suffered.
Why would we want to do it again?. Roll Eyes

Well OK ..

Shirley Bassey and 'History Repeating'. Great song.. damned if I can remember at the mo the group that talked her into it.. but

Killer song.... very appropriate.

Well .. Its all just a little bit of history repeating..

Labor sucks big time

Libs are right on the nose

Looks like Queenslanders will vote for Pauline -- the way they tried to do before Abbott put the boot in

Let's face it -- Aussies don't have a decent government or pack of pollies worth a cent in the entire country

And most of us know who we have to thank for that state of affairs

but don't bother them at the moment because they're busy trying to use the UN to ban a negative word about them .. and it's retrospective. They want it to extend thousands of years back in time

So GO PAULINE !

One wonders why you would want such an ignorant person to have any say. That strongly suggests you are even more ignorant then she. Cheesy

Some more housekeeping. Latest RechTEL Poll results.

"Goodbye Campbell Newmann, goodbye Campbell Newmann.'

Link.

Makes you wonder whether the LNP have an evil 'strong' plan to cause a by-election when he loses, and if they gain Government.

Come on ALP......ramp this up! Who will be leader......or who will be jettisoned so the Little Nazi prick can parachute in?

ok aussie tell us just what has Labor promised to do??..

all we hear is get rid of Newman. ok hes gone..now what??.. dont tell us labor have done anything impressive for years either..... so what are you expectations...and will Palmer be on the front bench?>?? Roll Eyes

They've promised to get rid of Newmann and not sell the bloody farm to the Chinese as Newmann wants to do. That'll do me.

Ahh one of the irrelevant big ignorant mouths return.!! CODS.. I am surprised. Wink

yeah I'd like to say.. some people, especially those who don't live here, are full of erroneous rubbish about this state.

Mexicans are welcome to their opinions, no matter how gormless, or formless , they are.
Cods, still not willing to talk to me.? Obviously not

, and why should I be surprised that you think, we here in QLD, should keep Noman ?? Save it for after the election. Your opinion is not relevant as you don't vote in QLD.

If it even gets close to 'touch and go' ~ on a State basis ~ that will be an added bonus for me. Newmann is toast in Ashgrove.
