I was so anti-gay while growing up but as I grew I met some gay people and a few of my relatives turned out gay. They’re beautiful, normal, hard-working people and over the course of time I have completely changed my view of them. Of course there are the minority that need guidance but that’s no different to us heterosexuals. I'll be voting a big “YES” for them as I can now not understand what the problem is. Let it be.

9000 mattresses imported from China for the Commonwealth Games (GGB 11/8). Anastacia you amaze me. So much for QLD first. Looks like you couldn’t organise a boozeup in a brewery and if you did it would probably be in the VB brewery. John Z true Gold Coaster

Paul Burrell’s worldwide gossiping bitch fest is so disrespectful, not only to the late Princess Diana, but to her sons and family. She would be aghast at what he is telling to line his pockets. Disgraceful performance. – Queenie secret ballot to suggest a change of name, either “Easibeats” or “Cream Puffs”. Brenjon

It is high time our politicians at both federal and state level adopt a bipartisan approach on commonsense issues instead of continually playing musical chairs and moving left then right. In a political context opposition does not mean “oppose” for the sake of opposing. Make conscience votes obligatory! Barry C, Carrara

Have read many understated reports in the press regarding the detection of the two plotters, Khaled and Mahmoud. I am very glad to have the AFP on my side, GAK

SSM would be the way to spit in the eye of God, it’s not the answer but a cancer, A Re: Chinese mattresses, unbelievable. Reckon Shane Warne should be premier of Qld, at least his spin is quality & produced great results for Oz! Struth

Brilliant Bill Shorten, by forcing your enemies to break their election promises you legitimise the actions of your crooked mates who lie to the people during election campaigns.

If you add 1 + 1 you get the council replacing part of its library staff with contractors who need to access library systems just like the employees did.

So our war monger LNP wants us to go to war with Nth Korea. At least every other LNP leader who has sent our young men to war has waited until there is actually a war to go to. BB
