Labor's Dr Anthony Lynham's victory at Stafford in the 2014 by-election was a key event in the defeat of the Newman government in 2015. He retired in 2020. In 2024 he lost his son to cancer. Now he's working to streamline the clinical trial system. #qldpol https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-12/clinical-trials-australia-eamon-lynham/105125900

You'd think that after all the money that developers have funnelled into #MoretonBay over the years, council might greenlight more humane—and durable—solutions to the #housing crisis.
But no. Apparently, property values in (checks notes) #DBay are more important.

@Qldaah Queensland introduces remote gulags for black and brown children.
This is Peter Dutton’s mob. Take it as a warning he would do this nationwide.
He’s called Herr Kipfler for a reason. His election advertising spruiks his Queensland pig credentials as an electoral asset.

Queensland had youth boot camps under Campbell Newman. A 2015 auditor-general report found problems with favoritism & costings. This new remote outback camp suggests youths taken forcefully to locations far from media or government scrutiny. #qldpol https://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-04-09/auditor-general-concerns-about-lnp-youth-boot-camp-program/6380278

First time Qld has heard about the remote outback camps this side of the state election. It originated from KAP in 2023 with their bill to parliament but no support. Littleproud picked up on it in 2024. Crisafulli softened it to "reset camps" but no details. #qldpol
BREAKING: Spruiking Premier David Crisafulli's "Adult Crime, Adult Time" David Littleproud announces Qld will implement remote outback camps for juvenile offenders. The policy was raised in Qld pre-election but this is the first announcement after polling day 2024.

Former Qld LNP Brisbane council candidate Brock Alexander now on grooming charges.

"I’m concerned that Queensland might be reverting to the bad old days of biased electoral boundaries – the notorious Queensland gerrymander." Tony Fitzgerald speaks against appointing Dep Premier Jarrod Bleijie's D-G John Sosso to Qld Redistribution Commission by Premier David Crisafulli. #qldpol
A few people puzzled over The Courier Mail covering Tony Fitzgerald on yesterday's front page. There is a complex nature to Qld politics & media but his words carry weight. In 2014 the CM editor attempted to discredit him. This was the response. #qldpol https://youtu.be/VRpJQ4ompMU

@feather1952 we know what Spud Dutton has to offer. He goes to Trump’s unhinged CPAC every year and he and his lackeys come back spouting crazy about communist teachers and curriculum, coal and gas anti-renewable rubbish, wanting to remove reproductive health care, spouting racist and anti-immigrant lies, and other culture war bullshit. He wants us to be like Trump’s America. Dawg help us. He can’t hide his fascist ideology.
We see him, the vile Nazi pig.
Get the Dick out of Dickson, Queensland.
