Barnaby stands up for the QLD bush 19 times, while QLD Libs force Nationals to betray the bush 19 times. I admire National Party senator Barnaby Joyce because he isn’t easily pushed around. Barnaby has broken ranks with the Liberals in Canberra, and voted against them 19 times in order to put the people of country QLD first. An article in the Toowoomba Chronicle today reports: “The outspoken senator is renowned as a highly-independent member of his party, having crossed the floor 19 times under…See More

What major party is the best to manage the state? “What major party is the best to manage the state?” With the state election just around the corner, that is an important question for any QLD independent Member of Parliament or candidate. We desperately need a change in government. However, I would like to see a minority LNP government held in check by a group of genuine conservative independents who will put the interests of the people before the interests of political parties.

To shred, or not to shred? That is the question… for QLD Public Servants.
Member for Burnett Rob Messenger today has called on Queensland’s 180,000 plus public servants to think twice before following directions from people associated with the Labor party, who may order the destruction or shredding of public documents.
Mr Messenger said that in the lead up to the 2012 state election, and with a likely change in government…

- Hi Rob
Do any of them involve the shortfall in palliative care funding we receive in this region, compared with the amount of money they throw away conducting research into models of care (again), special projects and bureaucrats to check the reports we are required to fill out quarterly in order to maintain our funding (less than 1/3rd of cost).

Thanks for the disclosure. I’ve had a bee in my bonnet for a while now about Climate change. I’ll send you a speech I did in parliament last Feb where I nailed my colors to the mast.
Cheers

Geoff Brown said… - G'day Rob,
I accept your offer of friendship, but must disclose the I am the Treasurer of the Climate Sceptics party. We are seeking registration with a membership base of around 800.
Our party policy is not to stand against any party that has similar ideas re the AGW hoax and share similar aims as ourselves.
I accept your Agmates Friendship - It's up to you if you want to retract.
Cheers
