The Queensland Parliament was a hive 🐝of activity this week! Here are just some of the highlights:
💙 Motor Neurone Disease Association of Queensland joined us to highlight the reality of this cruel disease and to advocate for much needed funding.
⛺The annual Scouting on the Green event hosted by Scouts Queensland showcasing the many positive aspects of scouting for young people.
🌷Parkinson's QLD who were there to advocate, educate and raise awareness about the condition currently affecting over 15,000 Queenslanders.
🩺The RACGP promoting this season's flu vaccinations campaign and the vital work of our GPs across Queensland.
🛩️Royal Flying Doctor Service - Queensland Section who brought their aeromedical simulator to showcase the essential services they deliver to communities across regional, rural and remote Queensland.
🪦St George Chinese Community Memorial brought in a replica of their beautiful memorial which honours the lives of the the Chinese labourers who came to St George in the mid-1800s.
Thank you to all of these amazing organisations (and those I didn't get a chance to engage with this week!) for your incredible work in communities and across the State. ... See MoreSee Less

Something extraordinary has happened. 😔
Many of us have seen the impact of drug addiction in our communities and in many families. But David Crisafulli and the LNP have today passed laws that cut healthcare for people struggling with addiction.
The Australian Medical Association of Queensland has described it as "short-sighted and a blow to mental and preventative health" and many experts agree.
Labor voted against these laws, because we won't stand for cuts to important healthcare ✂️, especially on ideological grounds. ... See MoreSee Less

Oh oh the incompetent labor party is in trouble and rolls out mediscare campaign Dont think thats going to save you lot this time
Because the police service isnt understaffed or overworked already. The jails are not full either. Or the medical profession is against it too.
LNP dont care about people who are addicts,disabled,nurses,they dont care less!
In November 2024, the High Court in a decision of Bird v DP created a loophole in our law.
It means if an abuser wasn’t directly employed by an institution - i.e. a volunteer, a priest or someone on a stipend that institution can’t be held vicariously liable for that abuse.
This means many victim survivors of institutional child sexual abuse will not have this avenue available to them to seek redress through the courts for the abuse they suffered.
Every State has the opportunity to close this loophole. Victoria and ACT have already acted, and we have been imploring the Queensland Government to do the same.
Those pleas have been ignored. So, this week in the Queensland Parliament, the Labor Opposition introduced a Private Member's Bill to close that legal loophole.
A number of brave victim survivors came to the Parliament to see this legislation introduced. We did this for them and for all who deserve a pathway to justice. ... See MoreSee Less

✅ Turn up and announce the potential development of the Taroom Trough to assist with future fuel security.
✅ Call on the Federal Government to fast-track the project through a pathway that actually doesn’t exist.
✅ Forget to put in any documentation to the Federal Government for consideration of the project.
✅ Do nothing immediately to help Queenslanders with increasing fuel costs, when other States are.
But the photos look good! 👍 ... See MoreSee Less

Where are the free pies to get him there. Sorry media tart will do anything to get free pies.
You have been caught out lying It is the Labor way liar in the lodge
The current QLD government is a poor joke, the fiasco with Rio Tinto and Boyne smelter is breathtaking in its pig headed stupidity, literally cost QLD taxpayers $1 billion.
Guaranteed fun night out, for a great cause! 🐶
Libi is a 10-week old cavoodle who has had a rough start in life. All Breeds Canine Rescue Inc is doing everything they can to save her, but the costs are rising.
Every dollar raised at Bogan Bingo will go towards Libi's care. So, if you love animals, and a fun theme, book your tickets here: tinyurl.com/ABCBoganBingo

Not a rescue I would support!! I adopted a dog they took the money instantly, I was forced to wait over a week to pick him after multiple excuses. Finally upon collection I notice his low weight, what looked like ringworm all over him,l which is not what they claimed the marks were from. I was advised he had a medical issue I did ask the question if the dog was incontinent they stated no he had full bladder control. This dog does not have any bladder control AT ALL and his spine has a curve in it which indicates abuse at a young age ( not what they claimed at all ) and will need on going medical attention/ medication ( again opposite to what they claimed ) I emailed them 3 - 4 times to get his medical records and transfer of owner ship, I have been blocked emails bouncing back, I put a comment on the dogs post and SURPRISE I am now blocked on Facebook. ABSOLUTELY appalling conduct from them. Charis Mullen MP is this really what you want to support. 
**CAMIRA RECREATION RESERVE - HAVE YOUR SAY**
This is a great local space with SO much potential.
With some of the current facilities in an unusable state, Ipswich City Council are looking to hear from our community on what the future of this park looks like.
I would encourage all #camira residents to have their say 👇 before consultations close on 18 May!
