Is there enough room in our prisons to hold 1,611 more offenders?

There should be a focus on cracking down on towns along Qld's east coast.

Gondwanamo Bay... how long do I have to keep laying out for you people the obvious and simple solutions?

If we just put all the recalcitrants into Aborassic Park (The Independent State of Abosownway) or Gondwanamo Bay the crime rates would plummet in General Community Australia.  Give them meaningful work cutting the jungle back every day... give them a new perspective on life .... bag of rice once a week dropped in... fishing lines etc.. self-sustaining.
