It’s getting to the stage that with all of these border closures of a country previously called Australia that some of us now live in a country called Qld, NSW, WA, etc & that the federation is now dead & buried. MAX OF KIRWAN

Being a conservati­ve, I have always believed in respect for the law and our democratic institutio­ns like our parliament­s. Yes Troy Thompson has definitely acted inappropri­ately, but really, what a giant overreacti­on about bloody nothing from Captain Precious Aaron Harper, Speaker Curtis Pitt and the Ethics Committee. Harper should have just laughed off such a petty act, but instead has used the situation to maximise political damage. If only he could be as fast on his feet fighting juvenile crime! PEDRO CRANBROOK Tourism Minister Stirling Hinchcliff­e stated at Estimates last month that tourism operators didn’t want a hand out, they wanted incentives for people to holiday in Queensland and that if the opposition got off their backside and spoke directly to them they would know this. Then he stands up in parliament today calling for Jobkeeper to be reinstated for tourism operators! Biggest handball

time and time again from this minister every time he is required to do his actual job. JR 4810.

Gpsouth. TCC only maintains the lights but programmin­g is according to TMR. Stop trying to pass the buck. Programmin­g has been set and forget. A lot like this government’s attitude to everything including crime. JIM 4817

Is it any wonder that bugger all gets

done when our IQ lacking leaders spend their time bickering about a brochure stuck on an MP’S door. Talk about preschool antics. It’s laughable. JO NORTH WARD

GPSOUTH, re traffic lights. It is over 50 years since we put a man on the moon and we are still not smart enough to design ‘Smart Lights’ that allow traffic to turn right when there is no traffic approachin­g from the opposite direction for a full minute. Absolute waste of time and fuel. That is the issue my friend.

Hopeless Townsville City Council! To pay rates by credit card over the phone the council requires the property reference number. But the number has been left off new style rates notice. Go figure? JAMES 4814 Just read in the TB that a great misdemeano­ur has occurred against our very own crime fighting politician Aaron Harper (joke). Someone stuck a brochure on the door of his parliament­ary office. My God how could they? Aaron, stop acting like a spoilt little brat. Get out from hiding behind Anna’s skirt and grow some b--ls. If you were doing the job you are paid to do you would not have time for this rubbish.this reinforces my opinion that I am embarrasse­d to say you represent me and Thuringowa in the State Parliament. LES. KIRWAN

To the Centrals Tigers Reserve Grade and A Grade playing in the TDRL Grand Final on Sunday, good luck and hope you come away with a well deserved win. Grind ‘em into to the dirt. Go hard and go strong. Fish for dinner. BLUEWATER BOB.
