A few things you might not know about me, including a special coincidence with ABC FNQ presenter Charlie McKillop.

Nothing beats a morning run on the Cairns Esplanade. Thanks for the good conversations - just like you, housing, affordability, healthcare and holding this government to account are my priorities and our Labor team will continue to call out David Crisafulli’s spin.

David Crisafulli and the LNP don’t like it when you point out their spin and self-promotion. But that won’t stop me fighting for you, for affordability, housing, healthcare, workers rights, DFV prevention, child safety and whatever else David Crisafulli wants to lay his hands on.

After a busy day catching up with FNQ workers, locals and councils - got a good workout in with Gary and Felicia at Indigenous-owned Umifit

Frontline workers in Cairns have stood up with Queensland Labor today to call out David Crisafulli, Jarrod Bleijie and the LNP’s laws which will strip their rights at work.

Wondering why the LNP are coming after your rights at work? The rights of teachers, healthcare workers, those who protect our communities? This is why.

They spin, you suffer.

Qlders are paying the price after two years of David Crisafulli and the LNP government. Housing remains out of reach, the affordability crisis is biting, people are dying as our health system buckles under pressure and Qlders do not feel safe. While they spin, Qlders suffer.

- a program that gave our most remote communities a direct voice to government. I think remote communities deserve better, which is why the Labor team has launched "Walking Together" our own program to help fight for these communities.

This weekend, we learned about more LNP failures in health, housing, child safety and workers’ rights. While David Crisafulli focusses on spin and self-promotion, Queenslanders are paying the price.

David Crisafulli, Jarrod Bleijie and the LNP government are so focused on spin and self-promotion, you’re paying the price.

Saturday arvo with Bridie watching the Lions 🦁 at Springfield. Bridie and I were stoked to meet Courtney Hodder at the game too. Bridie recently represented Queensland for Aussie Rules, and it’s great to see so many amazing women in sport inspire her and all of us.

Nick deserved proper healthcare, our frontline workers deserved proper support. David Crisafulli and the LNP government didn’t provide it. When spin and self-promotion are the priority, Queenslanders are left paying for a health crisis.

What does that tell you about David Crisafulli and the LNP that they voted to block a motion to simply acknowledge the death of this man.

To advocate for the beds our communities across the state so desperately need.    But before it could even be considered, the LNP blocked it.    More obsessed with spin and self-promotion, they didn't even want to listen to what we wanted to move.

But under the LNP our ambos are under so much pressure, our hospitals so underfunded that people are dying.    And yesterday we tried to move a motion in the house to acknowledge the death of this man, to extend our thoughts to his family, friends and the frontline workers.
