PREMIER TACKLES UNRULY HART

-

PREMIER Annastacia Palaszczuk gave Burleigh MP Michael Hart a political stiff arm after he interjecte­d during her speech about the Queensland women’s rugby league team.

Announcing that female players would get equality at last, being called the Maroons, the Premier said she was their No. 1 ticket holder.

“I am quite sure the deputy (Jackie Trad) will be No. 2,’’ she told Parliament.

“And I am quite sure that the Minister for Tourism (Kate Jones) will be No. 3.”

Mr Hart suggested Ms Jones was busy being a future mayoral contender.

“Well, Member for Burleigh, we know it is never going to be you,” the Premier replied.
