Solve Brisbane's shocking congestion once
and for all without more tunnels and bridges.
2. Quality universal health care
and housing for all - starting with a full,
truly independent restructure of QLD Health -
not cover-ups and corruption. Fewer
bureaucrats, more frontline health workers.
Embark on a massive expansion of public
housing to address waiting lists and
homelessness.
3. Genuine justice for Indigenous
Australia, not shameless implementation of
damaging and racist policies inherited from the
Howard era. Pay stolen wages immediately
and in full.
4. A government genuinely
accountable to the people.
Community councils and referenda, not fake
“consultation”. An end to cronyism and the
pollies' gravy-train, and an end to corporate
interests buying favour and manipulating
democracy. Why are so many highly-paid
lobbyists former ALP M.P.s and bureaucrats?
5. Create a green economy for
QLD - as the biggest coal producer in the
world, QLD must lead the fight against climate
change and a just transition for workers in the
move to renewable energies.
