This stinks to high heaven. Is this how Labor decides to risk the jobs of thousands of Queenslanders?

If you're talking about Adani you are spot on. If you're talking about opening new coal mines again you're spot on.

The biggest risk to jobs in Qld is the LNP. Last time they sacked 14,000 workers and wanted to sell asets. What secret skullduggery are they up to this time?

The next biggest risk is the Federal LNP's pet theory 'TRICKLE DOWN' You know where you give companies tax breaks and they expand and put on more workers. Well the NAB made a record $6.6 Billion cash profit and at the same time flagged sacking 6,000 employees. (Over 4 times the number Adani might average.) What will they do with all that cash? A quick read of the Paradise Papers is a good guide.

'F#@K UP' would be a better description of that theory for most workers.
