    Any request from the ADF for personnel returning from Afghanistan to quarantine in their own bubble will be granted. The Queensland Government is already working with the ADF on this matter with steps being taken to ensure this can happen.

    Scott Morrison & the LNP only contributed $180,000 to help manage our GC nat parks these past 2 years compared to our $8m.   Their one-off $4m for all SEQ post-bushfire will also run out this FY.   We’re calling on them to ⬆️ ongoing funding to protect our world-heritage areas.

    Today Queenslanders are giving a number of singe-use plastics the flick, with our latest ban taking effect. This will go a long way to keeping our oceans and beaches litter-free. ♻️

    Blocking the M1 is nothing but a stupid and selfish stunt from One Nation, disrupting Gold Coasters who are just trying to get to work.

    Growing pains in our northern suburbs have prompted a major investment at a local school. Pacific Pines High School is expected to welcome hundreds of new students in the next few years.

    Sorry, what? Australia’s Deputy PM says it’s not the gov’s job to come up with a plan to reach net zero. Wrong. It is the gov’s job as every other state and territory in the country has done 🤦‍♀️. Another example of the Morrison gov passing the buck.

    Tonight’s report is clear on the impact of climate change. We know there’s more to do which is why we’ve committed $2b to drive more renewable energy to help meet our targets. Now more than ever is the time to get serious - the Morrison Government has to step up.

    The science is very clear. The two greatest risks to the are climate change and water quality. We’re calling on the Morrison Government to at least match the Palaszczuk Government’s investment in renewable energy, water quality and land restoration.

    There were no new COVID-19 cases in Queensland today, but people are still being told to closely monitor any new exposure sites. It comes a day after Sydney’s Delta variant was detected in the Sunshine State. More:

    It’s a national and international treasure which is why all levels of Govt, industry and community need to work together to preserve it and treasure it for us now and future generations. The eyes of the world are watching – especially with the 2032 Olympic Games.(4/4)

    Scott Morrison and the Federal Government need to continue to work with us to put together a plan to address climate change and water quality. The reef brings billions of dollars into our economy, and 60,000 jobs rely on it. (3/4)

    Nobody wants to see the GBR removed from the World Heritage List. That’s why we’ve written to the Prime Minister to match the Palaszczuk Government’s commitments on $2 billion for renewable energy, $270 million for water quality and $500 million for land restoration. (2/4)
