LNP leader David Crisafulli walks back election promise to resign if crime victim numbers increase under his government
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-10-25/david-crisafulli-walks-back-crime-victim-number-election-promise/104517750Make stupid election campaign promises, win stupid prizes.
David Crisafulli has poor foresight and is untrustworthy —not desirable qualities for a Premier.
David Crisafulli made that promise as a stunt, and now he's worried people will hold him to his word, so he's adding qualifiers/conditions. Curiously, his metrics are now based on victims reporting crimes, and not on the number of criminals, which shifts the onus onto victims and perversely makes his promise stronger if Queensland police have dubious integrity. -
#RenewableEnergy generation in Queensland has almost quadrupled since 2018, making up about 28% of the state’s #electricity.
“I’m very worried we will see a real loss of momentum,” said Dave Copeman, director of the Queensland Conservation Council (#QCC).. “And what #Queensland does can shape Australia, and what #Australia does can influence #Asia. I don’t think people get the significance.”
In April, the state government led by the premier, #StevenMiles, put into law its net zero emissions by 2050 target and a new 2035 goal to cut #emissions by 75% by 2035, based on 2005 levels, that was celebrated by #climate advocates. #qldpol #qldvotes

Queensland LNP leader criticised for use of phrase considered derogatory term for Aboriginal children
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/oct/17/do-not-publish-queensland-lnp-leader-accused-of-adopting-derogatory-online-phrase-for-aboriginal-children-ntwnfbI believe I'm not going out on a limb when I say it: David Crisafulli knows exactly what he's saying with his racist dog whistles.
David Crisafulli is a racist leader of a racist political party, and he's saying the quiet part out loud to racist people because he wants their votes.

David Crisafulli vows to repeal ban on developer donations and ditch ‘corrupt’ full preferential voting system
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/oct/16/queensland-election-david-crisafulli-lnp-developer-donations-banDavid Crisafulli is blatantly attacking a key aspect of our democratic voting system, and trying to normalise property developers buying politicians with political donations.
When he talks about gerrymandering and corruption, remember that every accusation from a RWNJ is an admission.
