Steven Miles and the Labor Party need to front up and tell Queenslanders whether they will support our strong Adult Crime, Adult Time laws that are driving down victim numbers.

During Labor’s decade of decline victim numbers skyrocketed 193%. We've already delivered a 7.2% reduction in victim numbers, but we know there's still more work to do. It's all part of our plan to restore safety where you live.

We’re strengthening our laws, just like we said we would. Our reforms will mean serious offences like aggravated assault occasioning bodily harm, conspiring to murder, stalking and abusing someone with a disability can be covered by tougher penalties.

We’ve just introduced the next round of Adult Crime, Adult Time to Parliament this week.

Queenslanders deserve a straight answer from Steven Miles - will the Labor Party support strengthening Adult Crime, Adult Time or will they stand in the way of fewer victims of crime? We won’t let Labor’s chaos stop our plan to restore safety where you live.

NEW: Crime victim numbers have fallen 10.8% under our plan to restore safety where you live.

This is a test of Steven Miles’ leadership.

📌 Qualified organisations are invited to apply via the expression of interest process - for more information and program details, visit youthjustice.qld.gov.au/programs-initi…

📣 Expressions of interest are NOW OPEN for the new Crime Prevention Schools we are delivering in Townsville, Rockhampton and Ipswich. We know how crucial early intervention is to divert at-risk youth from a life of crime.

The standards you walk past are the standards you accept. Steven Miles needs to take a stand against this appalling online behaviour and stand up for Queensland women.

BREAKING: Labor spent almost $20 million - that should have gone to fixing their DNA debacle and justice for victims - instead they spent the money on new offices!

Shame on you @StevenJMiles - you can’t get your facts right on such an important matter. It wasn’t my appeal, it was made by the offender. How out of touch to rewrite the truth and lie to Queenslanders.

We stopped Labor’s CFMEU Tax - and today it’s been revealed it would have cost Queenslanders $20 billion by 2030. We owe it to Queenslanders to get to the bottom of the CFMEU’s intimidation, violence and bullying with a Commission of Inquiry. #qldpol

Update on the M1 🚧 The final northbound lanes of the very overdue M1 upgrade between Varsity Lakes and Tugun are now officially OPEN and the speed limit is back to 100km/h.🚗💨

Today we can reveal the number of victims of crime against population has fallen 5.7% in the first 6 months of this year.

An important update for Queenslanders.

You seriously can't make this up. 🤦‍♀️ Is it any wonder Labor's Youth Crime Crisis worsened in Queensland under their watch, after they watered down our Youth Justice Laws over a decade? #qldpol

You can't trust Labor's record on youth crime.

BREAKING: Serious Repeat Offenders have dropped 17.5% since our Making QLD Safer Laws were introduced.

Early intervention is how we tackle crime before it starts — and that’s exactly what Kickstarter is all about! 🏉👏 Proud to be in the same league as the @dolphinsnrl backing local solutions that make a real difference.
