Wonder how the wives of those sacked who will feel the real pain feel about this.

Bet they would like to kick the grubs wife in the gutz.

Like I said, if you have a problem, take it up with him but not his wife.

Its gutless and pathetic.

I have held a long standing position that partners have to be off limits, and I have only critisied one's partner once, and that was Tim meeting international asian delegates dressed in jeans and a shirt while meeting men in suits. On that occassion he needed to dress for the occasion, but that was as far as it went.

I dont think its unreasonable to make the people accountable, but you dont do it by attacking their families.

I have held a long standing position that partners have to be off limits

I have always agreed with this position.

However the fact is that he is in fact not held to the same standard, his decisions obviously greatly impact his targets families drastically.

I almost think it is fair enough in a case like this.

That may be so in some peoples eyes, but that is as far as it should go.

You do have the option to vote him out next election, just like we who think the same about gillard/labor will have that option.

Do we really want to become thug nation.

Still no excuse to attack his wife.

There is X number of LNP members in the house they can take the issue up with.

Going after families is a cowards way out.

If I terminate a staff member its not right for them to attack my wife.

Put yourself in that position.

No. I don't think there is any evidence that this actually happened. We are just taking the word of an unpopular politician. One who told us he spent 7 hours at the Ekka and only saw one person who disagreed with him. One who said public service jobs would be safe.

Amazing how the same people outraged over the Gillard barely a lie and are happy with this guy breaking blatent election promises.

Before the state election this year Premier Campbell Newman promised there would be no forced redundancies in the public sector.

Well looks like for 40,000 government employess that key election promise meant nothing.

Its probably wrong but the number came from here.

Does it really matter another article is saying that it was 20,000 may be revised down to 15,000 for political reasons.

Still a lot of people that he promised he would not sack.
