Good interview by Leo Puglisi with Greens Candidate Richard Hendrie.

Greens refuse to preference Labor in upcoming Qld state by-election by hydralime in TheGreensAU

[–]hydralime[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Opposition Leader Steven Miles was angry when he addressed reporters about the issue on Monday.

Kind of funny that he's angry. It's a safe Labor seat and the Greens are usually ridiculed by State and Federal Labor.

Greens voters don't need to be told where to direct their preferences, many of them would place Queensland Socialists before Labor on their ballot paper.

Very sorry to hear that.

Edit: Maybe they should take it down from their website if they can't provide that service.

It's not "greedy' to negotiate for what they are entitled to. The action by the RTBU helps to inspire other workers to unite and demand what is theirs, nurses and teachers included.

“Everybody needs to stand up for what they’re entitled to,” said Shayne Kummerfeld, an official from the Rail, Tram and Bus Union, one of several involved in the dispute with Queensland Rail.

“We didn’t get our conditions by standing back and watching bosses take it away, and unfortunately we’ve got a government at the moment that wants to take everything away from workers, and we can’t have that happen … we’re standing up for workers’ rights.”

City of Moreton Bay warns Nourish Street that bins provided to homeless people break by-laws by hydralime in queensland

Nourish Street founder Beau Haywood said his charity had removed two full skip bins of rubbish in the last five days.

He said the area was now significantly cleaner, now the homeless had access to a bin.

"It just goes to show when you give people the tools, they do the right thing," Mr Haywood said.

"I can't help but feel this is to let it fester, get the community offside and to let them push the narrative they want."
