It’s why the disgraced ex PM entered politics in the first place. It had nothing to do with working for the NATION’s interest. #Auspol

This suits the fossil fuel industry. Ultra conservative State based politicians can ‘indirectly’ undermine the @albomp.bsky.social’s Govt’s energy policies. Strategy will be ramped up in other State elections like it was in the last Qld one. The QLD LNP’s campaign began TWO years before they won.

Queensland Premier Anna Bligh began statewide water fluoridation in 2008. Tooth decay data from children was collected 2010-12. In 2012 Campbell Newman removed the state requirement. Data was collected 2021-24 & compared with the initial dataset. #qldpol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Most of Queensland's population has access to fluoridated drinking water; at least 70%. However, most of Qld's 77 councils do not add it. 5 councils don't need to fluoridate as it is already present in the water supply. #qldpol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...
A map of Queensland shows the 77 council regions. Most do not have fluoridated water supply and 5 have naturally occurring fluoride levels.

This warms my heart .Visited Kalumburu as an RFDS nurse weekly 1979-1980. It was a Catholic mission. So many sick kids with hook worm and 4th world housing.
There is now a FN Labor woman MP representing the Kimberley and a FN Fed Minister .
If you think Labor and LNP are the same I despair ❤️💛🖤

The Qld government can't instruct the courts on sentencing but can lodge appeals. A-G Deb Frecklington sought a new sentence of 2yrs detention for teen assailant. Court ordered 18 months with release after serving 50% time & convictions recorded. #qldpol www.news.com.au/national/que...

Good. Interesting. Can we now have the data/math about people that need the gas while moving to green energy running out of electricity? Australia and it's (some) export countries are relying on that gas replacing coal in the interim. What happens without it?

For the first time, scientists can show the impact of gas project emissions
Fossil fuel companies and governments argue it's not possible to link climate impacts to specific projects, but Australian researchers have done the numbers.

David Crisafulli & Jarrod Bleijie have overcommitted Queensland with their grandiose redesign of the Games & underestimated the resistance to the Victoria Park plan. Committee President Andrew Liveris is kept up at night by all the concerns. #qldpol www.insidethegames.biz/articles/115...

An Adelaide property owner demanded an extra $3000 above the bond from a relative looking to rent there. She admitted it was illegal. Who are these people?!!! The relative declined to take up her private ‘offer’.
