Queensland goes to the polls on March 21 - Bring on the Borg

Thankfully Queensland now has the chance to toss out our current incompetent government. Anna Bligh sees on the horizon the huge budget deficit coming her way and decides to dodge the bullet by going to an early election. Hopefully the people of Queensland won't be fooled and will realize how wasteful this Queensland state Labour Government has been. They have been unable to fix the health system and our education system has slipped to the lowest in Australia. Why? Because the Labour government has no real idea on how to solve any of these problems - they believe their own spin - if you say its all alright for long enough it's got to be true. As a state governmment employee I've seen first hand the desire to disort the facts, cook the books, hide the true figures and ignore any constructive criticism - its a dirty word to have an original idea or to say that a problem actually exists - they perfer to sweep it under the carpet and pretend there is no problem.

Money has been wasted on sports and the arts that should have gone to core state government functions - health, education and emergency services. Under this Labor government the staff moral in hospitals, schools, police, ambulance and fire has hit an all time low as the state government has mistreated and bullied its employees to follow the mantra - everythings ok, we are the SMART state ..... lies, lies and more lies has been the mantra of the Queensland labor government. If we fail to vote out this government be prepared for a debt ridden Queensland for decades to come. We have already lost our triple A rating meaning we pay more interest than ever before.

Hopefully 21st March will be the date for Queensland turning over a new leaf.
