On other matters

“Environment Minister Leeanne Enoch … shed tears over the approval of Adani” (CP, 19/06). How sad is Labor that they give us such deeply brainwashed and emotional drones as ministers. Just pathetic. Miss T, Tolga Interesting to see USA billionaire Michael Bloomberg contributing 750 million toward closing what’s left of coal-fired power stations across the USA. Climate change deniers here kept alive by distorting and ignoring the scientific global warming and economic facts. Our future generations will pay for the looming catastrophic consequences if global warming is not addressed. Environmentalist, Cairns Progressive, (CP, 19/06) take your blinkers off mate, where I sit it looks like the minority righties won the election. Bill, Mooroobool The tourist hub, proposed just after the last state election was simply done so it would seem as if Cairns was being allocated something, we all know it was simply a diversion from the fact we were given nothing, The tourist hub will never happen, same as the Cultural Centre! Robert, Earlville Melbourne the PC leftist capital of Australia. Reaping now what it has sown. Criminals, immigrant gangs attacking population and police. Stupid protesters, leave them glued to the pavement. David, Holloways Beach Progressive, Cairns: The “backward thinking” demographic who you claim are unrepresentative of the wider community and who are “pushing a smallminded right-wing political agenda” has won the last two federal elections. Tony, Bayview Heights Either we have an oversupply of police officers, or record low crime in Cairns, when it takes three police officers to monitor the Red Beret intersection following a complaint of speeding through the intersection. Tezza, Redlynch Home invaders’ 10 years minimum. Lock them up and let’s see them find the keys to get out. Craig, Earlville Douglas Shire ratepayers (CP, 19/06) are to spend $200,000 on planting trees in SEQ. That’s 21.89 per rateable property. That’s despite Douglas Shire being the biggest carbon sink per square metre than anywhere else in Australia. How do ratepayers feel about that? Rashmi, Edmonton
