On other matters
Am I missing something (CP, 24/10) page 6? Tourism Minister Kate Jones is offering taxpayer money to any airline that flies direct into Cairns. I thought that would be the responsibility of the privately-owned Cairns Airport? Don, Earlville Woz (CP, 25/10). What’s your point? Nothing will grow without moisture. Michael, Gordonvale On Change the Rules. Correction David from Holloways, but employees unions do not “bargain workers rights away for their own ends”. Workers have a choice under law on where we choose to invest our superannuation. Whether that be a bank fund, self-managed, industrybased, the choice is there. David, Cairns City To The Cane Cutter Edmonton. Adolf Hitler attracted the same large crowds that President Trump does and we all know what happened to the world then. Geoff, Westcourt Nobody cares about Obama. Only leftists who want to destroy the western world or people too scared to say anything. The black Americans like ex-NFL Jim Brown, Kanye West, Larry Elder, Jesse Lee Peterson, Diamond and Silk, Candice Owens can see now after eight years under him he nearly destroyed the US. Shane, Kanimbla Thanks to the nice old man who gave me $40 at my place on Thursday morning. So there are some nice people in this world. Janelle, Woree Tradies are much more responsible for safety etc than pencil pushers in government positions. They get nowhere near these government positions. Beverly, Tolga The artist who painted the Gillard portrait (CP, 25/10) is brilliant. He captured her deviousness perfectly. Pterodactyl Trev, Cairns There you go, vegans. JCU researchers (CP, 25/10) have drawn a distinction between a healthy diet and “eating only lettuce leaves” which are “only enough to survive rather than to thrive”. Miss T, Tolga Re: Resumption of glazier business for bypass at Smithfield (CP, 25/10) page 3. I remember the resumption of the Kuranda properties for the new highway and also the resumption of dairy farms near Gympie for the Traverston Dam, both under the Bligh government and both never eventuated. Such poor waste of public money when you think of the $7 million spent to buy a cattle property at Lakeland. Bryan, Kuranda
