illiam Forgan Smith (15 April 1887 – 25 September 1953) was an Australian politician. He served as Premier of the state of Queensland from 1932 to 1942. He came to dominate politics in the state during the 1930s, and his populism, firm leadership, defence of states' rights and interest in state development make him something of an archetypal Queensland Premier. He represented the Labor Party.

Imagine Queensland 2026 as 1939: We're just going to send Queensland Labor Premier William Forgan Smith to Germany to speak to Adolf Hitler.

This is not the sort of 'investing in our future' we need.

Maybe lowering student fees and better pay for staff would be a slightly better use of the $$$.

Gas companies just keep on taking the piss. Pity the ATO tax stats exist.

David Pocock is right: more tax is raised from beer than from petroleum resource rent tax (PRRT) Senator David Pocock has produced viral social media content claiming that Australia’s beer tax raises more revenue than the gas industry pays in Petroleum Resource Rent Tax (PRRT). Can more public mo...

Not that it was ever in doubt, but the gas companies' jimmies are very rustled, so here you go:
thepoint.com.au/factchecks/2...

“The Beer excise raises more money than the PRRT”

LNP and Gas shills: yeah but what if we count the company tax of gas companies??!!!!

“Ok, what if we count the income tax of beer drinkers? What if we also count the GST paid on beer?”

Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz: Australia ‘seems foolish’ not to properly tax gas giants Nobel Prize-winning economist Professor Joseph Stiglitz has advised Australia to “auction off your resources for the highest value. Get the highest value from whoever can extract your resources.”

25% tax on gas exports would raise around $17 billion annually. We could fund a lot of everything with that kind of coin

Queensland police refused to discipline officer accused of domestic violence against pregnant partner Police decided there was ‘no tangible benefit’ to conducting disciplinary action against the officer and opted not to investigate

There is "no tangible benefit" in the Queensland police investigating themselves.

The decision to scrap the specialist domestic and family violence command only reinforces the cultural failings highlighted by the 2022 inquiry that they have failed to address.
