Remember when the mayor Jenny Hill closed the Castle Hill walking tracks due to Covid. We endured lots of silly decisions but this must high on the most inane. Maurice Annandale

Just reading Eddie Riddle’s top column about sharks stealing and killing hooked fish. Are these sharks being trained by callous car thieves and burglars? Same MO using stealth and same disastrous outcome. Pete at Douglas.

Is school attendance optional these days it seems so around here lately. Davo Heatley.

Look out Member for Thuringowa Aaron Harper, Natalie Marr is coming to unceremoniously unseat you. Ron Kelso.

Paul Keating is NOT my elder. I never voted for him and could not stand the man then. I still can not stand him and wish he would pull his head in! CJ Pallarenda

Whether we choose Palliative care or VAD., the end result would be the same. If post-mortem examinations were performed I think the results would be similar in that they would show that the person/s died as a result or consequence of drug overdose. Snow. Mount Louisa.

Ron Kelso how many times are you going to repeat yourself, we don’t care who you vote for. Wayne Heatley

If you shoot him in the legs. what if they miss? Cops are supposed to then go one on one with a berserk

attacker with a knife. You don’t pay people enough for that. Relatives should be asking R U Ok more often. Jim 4817

Phillip Thompsons disgusting full page ad in Saturday’s paper as paid for by us, the tax payer. It simply goes to show he has no idea what the voice is trying to achieve. To say that Aboriginal people have been treated ‘as equals’ goes to the heart of the problem. Incarceration rates, suicide rates, alcoholism, violence, younger age of life expectancy. All of these issues are because first nation people have not been allowed a voice to decide their future. Time to shut up and sit down Phil. Until you actually understand the issue just get out of the way. Steven, Wulguru.

Shari I read your column and I don’t know if you are aware of this but the LNP in QLD won 21 of the 30 federal seats at the last election. “It’s taken our electorate a while to wake up?” What rock you living under? I’d like to think the electorate is WOKE to the BS! JR 4810.

So Bowen is pushing harder for EV transition to the general populace. Well I pray it doesn’t happen but when a EV charging point in a basement car park results in a lithium battery explosion and potential catastrophic consequences he puts his hand up and accepts responsibility and criminal charges. After all he is the architect of this nightmare. Dan,

Cranbrook Carl Fries. Simple answer to your question, I believe in grammar but not God. SJS4818

Finally some common sense on the Voice! Thank you to the Member for Herbert for having the courage to say what many can’t. The division being created in our beautiful country right now is devastating. Scotty, West End 4810.

Spot on! Wayne Bennett! Sounds like the way this country is being run at present, among others, too many to name. JES KIRWAN
