Peter Russo MP

Thanks for the wasting the people of QLD's time once again David Crisafulli and the LNP. 😠

Being compared to a dictatorship, being compared to Trump... Integrity experts are comparing David Crisafulli's leadership style to that of Iran and US. They said this LNP government have effectively been "removing the power of the people." These are dark times.

David Crisafulli is a clever politician, and he’ll do anything he can to suit his political agenda - including hiding hundreds of victims.

LNP MP described his crusade to roll back abortion rights as a "battle against demons". Now, pro-life LNP MP's have indicated that changes to abortion law could be back on the agenda. David Crisafulli is taking QLD backwards and its women and girls who will pay the price.

The LNP's plan is to allow private developers to build homes everyday QLD'ers simply won’t be able to afford to buy. The LNP’s "Land Activation Plan" is really a plan to provide private developers with maximum profits. This LNP plan will not deliver a single affordable home.

Queenslanders deserve better than a Minister who is checked out and out of her depth.

For the third year in a row, Brisbane drivers are paying the highest petrol prices in the country. Labor proposed measures to bring fuel prices down, because we knew this was hurting QLD families. But after more than a year in government, Crisafulli has failed to act.

More than 10,500 Queenslanders have been removed from the social housing waitlist, despite the LNP's outdated criteria which means single mums with two children earning under $50,000 a year are ineligible for social housing. It's not good enough.

10,800 more Queenslanders on the social housing register. That’s the reality under the LNP - a housing crisis getting worse while they offer spin, not solutions. Housing is a basic need.

Your postcode shouldn’t determine your health outcomes, and those who live in regional QLD shouldn’t be left behind. QLD Health must investigate the treatment of 27-year-old man, who died after his hospital transfer from Gladstone to Brisbane was delayed by almost two weeks.

The Crisafulli LNP Government have shown their true colours. In a spineless move, they have banned lifechanging healthcare for young people, right before Christmas. This goes against the findings of their own review, led by health experts.

Indefinite delays and 700 less hospital beds by 2032. That’s the LNP’s hospital plan. Ambulance ramping has hit record highs, specialist waitlists balloon and demand on health service just keeps going up and up, and yet the LNP are delivering less beds, later.

We need more nurses, but the LNP have slashed new nurse graduate positions. Right now, 4,200 nurses and midwives are graduating across Queensland, but they can’t get jobs thanks to the LNP’s health cuts. We need more frontline health workers not less.

New data revealed in questions on notice from the Opposition shows that patients are waiting a whole workday to be transferred from the stretcher into the Emergency Department, as the chaos, health cuts and broken promises of the LNP keep piling up.

13 people were hospitalised on Friday night because of e-bikes and e-scooters. The time for action is now.

David Crisafulli and his LNP Housing Minister Sam O’Connor have failed our state’s most vulnerable people. More than 11,000 pleas for help have gone unanswered under the LNP’s watch, representing a 53 per cent increase in just one year.

More than 490,000 Queensland households can’t afford the basics after paying rent. Queenslanders deserve a government that takes housing affordability seriously. The LNP clearly isn’t doing that. We need urgent action - not excuses.

QLD Labor pushed the LNP to take action on e-mobility safety We called for recommendations from the e-mobility inquiry to be implemented for before Christmas. The LNP blocked the motion - delaying action for a third time - and will instead wait until 2026 to do anything.

Thousands of QLD'rs throughout Moreton Bay and Brisbane remain without power, and without the essentials - and there's no end in sight. The LNP Government must step up and support those impacted, today. Disaster Recovery Minister Ann Leahy cannot leave people in the lurch.
