Labor’s maladminis­tration

-

LACK of ethical standards go to the very root of Labor’s maladminis­tration in Queensland.

Ignoring advice from the acting Legal Services Commission­er himself, the so called “first law officer”, Attorney-General Yvette D’Ath was included on a panel to select a permanent appointmen­t for the position, people from the very organisati­ons that the commission­er oversees.

Not only that, but guess what? They have very close links to the Labor Party one even handing out how-to-vote cards in public. The acting commission­er said: “I have got concerns in relation to the selection process that has occurred in respect to the Legal Services Commission­er.”

“In my view it is a matter of public interest that this process should be challenged and reviewed as to whether proper processes have been followed.

“In my view it doesn’t pass the pub test. There is a clear perception of bias in relation to the selection process.”

This is nothing but bloody disgusting, but it goes to the heart of how Labor is treating the people of Queensland. Dennis Quick, Fishery Falls into a corner by the one and only Donald Trump.

This situation needs strenuous diplomacy, a skill that eludes Trump and his pathetic “yes boss” administra­tion.

He no doubt believes a war would help his political aspiration­s and the fragility of the world’s oil supply has been exposed by the Iranians and is now a chilling reality.

If the Americans go hard at Iran the world will no doubt spiral into an economic tailspin. Charlie Boyan, Bayview Heights
