People who know me, know that I like to give credit where it is due. I often get asked why am I acknowledging people from another party when they do something right. Well that's easy, if it's the right thing I don't care who does it or says it and I will support and acknowledge that. I didn't think I would be thanking this particular person but there you go.
I would like to thank the Member for Barron River for confirming what we all know and what I have been saying here. That is the axing of 330 police service jobs is goinjg to have an ENORMOUS impact on service delivery. Mr Wettenhall in todays press release highlights how important these civilian jobs are
He has also confirmed for us in this release that the stupid action by his government is going to cost the people of Queensland 75,000 operational police shifts. That's 75,000 times there should be a police officer on the beat preventing crime, they won't be there.
So credit where credit is due, thanks Steve and I look forward to you standing up in parliament and demanding that these jobs and police budget cuts do not go ahead so that service delivery is not impacted on. If you're allowed to that is.
