Hey Baby Boomer Julie, did you stop to think that it was the baby boomers that bred the parents of today that are breeding today’s ferals of today? Vern S

Labor says big banks pay no tax. But that they gain 17 billion if tax rate cut from 30% to 25%. Huh? Which lie is true ?

Come on qld. Le’ts not only focus on the 'gravy train' (ie tourism). There is equal money to be made - and lucrative, annual, billions of windfalls, in the form of QLD state govt coal royalties etc - for our hospitals, police force and roads especially, not to mention massive hi-end job creation, if we also jump on the 'coal train.' No Brainer.

Cmon, cmon .... where are the multiple clean coal power plants? If I took so long to provide the basics for my family my children would have starved to death by now. For Gods sake, pull finger!

The only time our politicians agree on anything is when it comes to their salary increase.

Kent, agreed high quality investigative journalism BUT ...... only interest is conservative investigating not greens nor Labor nor unions. If they did they would have more corruption and nefarious activities unearthed. Good viewing and better ratings. Unbiased reporting would be excellent on all aspects of politics. Exocet

So Coles and Woollies are going to save 270 million a year by not supplying plastic bags. You bewdy that means prices should come down. I think not. Just another bonus for the CEO. Had the misfortune to have to drive from Broadbeach to Labrador today and back. The traffic lights are a joke. Did not manage to get through one green light in either direction. In many places on the journey the lights that are a couple of hundred meters ahead turn red as you move on from the one you're stopped at. There must be someone that can fix this stupidity. Peter

Ita Buttrose's comments about people with mental health issues leaves one question unanswered.. how do we know when a person acting strangely in a public place etc. is high, drunk or genuinely mental, especially in this crazy world we now live in... Bob, Kingscliff.

Until this ridiculous law system changes we will be hearing more and more stories of these mongrel teenage coward gangs robbing people at knifepoint in broad daylight. Yhey need to be belted with a strap ... no pain absolutely no gain. tweedie bob

Does anyone know what happened to the large fern sculptures for Surfers? People suggesting Former PM Tony Abbott is being disloyal if he crosses the floor on climate change are obviously unaware that Malcolm Turnbull crossed the floor and voted against his own party years ago, and on the same issue! The PM’s record of loyalty and honesty is a blank page. Thus, it is necessary to leave criticism of Abbott to his slavering minions, lest he be charged with hypocrisy. Bruce, Murwillumbah.

How the heck can anyone complain about dynamo Trump after eight years of feckless, useless, do nothing Obama. I just don't get it. in America it seems the less you do the more you are liked by those looney lefties. That’s crazy. So these extra CCTV cameras are supposed to keep criminals off the streets. The only time they will be off the streets is when they get arrested and when they leave court. Barney

Stick by your guns Annastacia and name Lang Park eastern grandstand after a man who did a lot for rugby and Suncorp. Never mind what Deb Frecklington said to the contrary. She is only jealous she is not in the position to make this decision. It is a great dedication to a great Queenslander. James Patrick McGuire

Congratulations to all concerned in getting the Bilinga Tugun foreshore path a reality. Let's now fill in the gaps between the Tweed River and Nerang River. The "Oceanway

Path" should be the objective. Lookout

Re: M Robina's comment (GCB 4/7). Supply is down, demand is up but buyer's aren't committing. The longer a seller sits, the higher the chance they'll lower their asking price. No agenda from RE agents, just straight talk to anyone willing to listen. KP

Thank you to staff at GCU hospital. C2East block. From the doctors, nurses, wardies, cleaners and food staff. My level of care was very appreciated, and well done to you all. Jason

Hey crims and drug pushers: the GC now has over 500 cctv cameras. A clever crim (and there are not that many) would move on, don’t you think?
