BRISBANE : With much fanfare, like the swearing in of a new Knight
of the Garter, Premier Campbell Newman, Treasurer Tim “Slim” Nicholls and Deputy Premier Jeff
Seeney launch election costings .
Oops! There is a $200million “obvious typo” in the document .
CANBERRA : Sir Lancelot says
Campbell Newman is a strong
leader , with strong plans , strong border protection that keeps out undesirables from Canberra.
TOWNSVILLE : Enter the Tasmanian tigress , Senator Jacqui Lambie, who sets up
a pill box outside the Lavarack military barracks and reminds the ADF
voters and passing motorists to send a message through the Queensland election that the Abbott government
should be hung high and low for cutting the pay of troops .Onya Jacqui!
MOUNT ISA : Out this way , the hills
have reverberated
for ages to the relayed radio comments of Sydney
shockjocks. As a result, the
largely receptive audience is gunning for Brisbane
and Canberra and Katter mark lll of the KAP and dynasty is riding high in the saddle . One
of Little Darwin’s informants spends a lot of
time in the outback and said Katter , not sure which one , walked into
a pub at the “Curry”-Cloncurry- and said
the drinks were on him. As a result Katter
is king out in the parched Injun terrain. In this vast region Federal
Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce is regarded as
usefull as tits on a bull and not much chop in a Canberra Liberal dominated dogfight.
MAGNETIC ISLAND : The ALP island branch secretary ,Linda Wootten, a
wildlife carer , has been distracted
from campaigning by a request from a woman to arrange the removal of two
Death Adders. Trying to
remove the Newman
Government is a mammoth task , dwarfed by the problem of how to deal with an
obvious family of vipers in your territory.A crocodile has been seen cruising about the island , Linda draws the line at tackling a saurian .
