Public servants in Queensland have been offered five days of paid leave if they are suffering from psychological distress following the failed Voice referendum.

Leaders in the public sector this week received an email telling them they could grant workers special leave as well as sick leave.

The message, from Public Sector Commissioner David Mackie, called on department bosses to consider the emotional impact the referendum's result would have on workers.

He added that the initiative was to ensure staff members remained mentally well.

Embarrassed

So, does that mean the public servants who don't take 5 days "psychological distress" paid leave will be told off or sacked for (obviously) voting No?

So why is Voldemort not coming out and saying that they stand or fall at the next election over - amongst other things - a Royal Commission into violence and an Audit, as well as the repeal of many or any decisions taken about this voice that are done behind the electorate's back... all these treaties and such.... the people voted the 'voice' down in full - not just the fancy front page...?

Why not stand up and set in place the actual meaning of 'land rights' as opposed to ownership.... explain to them Up There that they do not own 85% of the NT coastline etc... and NOBODY owns the coastline. Just be clear and firm about these things... and no more of these sneaky 'custodian' handovers by stealth... we're not stupid out here, you know...

Is he simply playing politics and waiting for the next election to loom before giving Hard Labor and The Groans time to work out a defence? I'm pretty sure they already know what is afoot....
