LH,

Only time will tell when the Qld election happens.

The next Queensland state election is scheduled to be held on or before 5 May 2018 to elect all 93 members to the unicameral Legislative Assembly of Queensland. The first-term incumbent Labor government, currently led by Premier of Queensland Annastacia Palaszczuk, will attempt to win a 2nd term and will be challenged by the Liberal National opposition, currently led by Opposition Leader Tim Nicholls.

Following the 2015 election outcome, Labor formed a minority government in the hung parliament with confidence and supply support from the crossbench, while retaining the right to otherwise vote on conscience, from independent MP Peter Wellington. During the parliamentary term, both Labor-turned-independent MPs Billy Gordon and Rob Pyne indicated their ongoing support.

Successful amendments to the electoral act through legislation and a referendum in early 2016 include adding an additional four parliamentary seats from 89 to 93, changing from optional preferential voting to full-preferential voting, and moving from unfixed three-year terms to fixed four-year terms. However, fixed four-year terms will not take effect until after this election.


Now how will Pauline go ?


Which Queensland state seats could Pauline Hanson's One Nation win?

The rise of Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party in Queensland has given state politicians cause for concern.

In the July federal election, the right-wing, anti-immigration party polled 5.52 per cent of the Queensland vote in the House of Representatives, despite fielding candidates in only 12 of 30 electorates, and 9.19 per cent of the vote in the Senate.

The Liberal National Party in Queensland is clearly rattled by these results, with fears that One Nation could take up to 11 seats. A recent Newspoll showed the party's support in the state has almost doubled to 10 per cent.

So which state seats are vulnerable to a One Nation takeover? We've analysed polling booth data from the federal election to find out.

December 2016 was a long, long time ago as far as Politics is concerned.  Show us the more recent polls, Juliar.   I understand they are quite different today compared to then.  Tsk, tsk.   Roll Eyes

Terror attacks and Aboriginal calls for a treaty will sure up support for One Nation.

I hate to say it, but Australia has caught a lot of terror attacks and prevented them.

We cant keep being that lucky.

And we must look like real attractive targets the longer we go without an attack. (Monis was just a loon not counting him.)

Is she for or against the Aboriginal treaty idea?

It seems like a stupid question when I read it back given her tenancy to default to racism, but you never know...

ON may self destruct.
But Duncan Lewis is a liar and the LW Prog media are using every lie they can to hurt the party and Hanson.

Quote:
ASIO boss sparks row over refugees
The Australian
12:00AM May 27, 2017
Ean Higgins
Reporter
Sydney

ASIO director-general Duncan Lewis has declined to elaborate on his claim that there is “absolutely no evidence” of a link between Australia’s refugee intake and ­terrorism, despite multiple Islamic terrorist acts in the past three years involving individuals on ­humanitarian visas, or their children.

One Nation seized on Mr Lewis’s comments, with Queensland senator Malcolm Roberts tweeting:
“If ASIO can’t see a link between refugees and terrorism we are in far greater danger than I thought.”


Labor MP Anne Aly, an Islamic radicalisation expert, supported Mr Lewis, while Philip Ruddock, a former Liberal immigration minister and attorney-general, said while one could not ignore the issue, “simply to blame all refugees is over-simplistic”.

On Thursday, One Nation leader Pauline Hanson grilled Mr Lewis, a former special forces commander, in a Senate estimates hearing about Islam, radicalisation, refugees and terrorism.

She first asked Mr Lewis if he could confirm that the four terrorist attacks and the 12 foiled on Australian soil were “committed by Muslims”.

Mr Lewis replied: “Certainly of the 12 thwarted attacks, one of those indeed involved a right-wing extremist, so, the answer is ‘no’, they have not always been carried out by Muslims.”

During the exchanges, the ASIO chief said: “We’re not interested in religion. We are interested in whether an individual is exhibiting or practising violence.”

Senator Hanson then asked: “Do you believe that the threat is being brought in possibly from Middle Eastern refugees that are coming out to Australia?”

Mr Lewis replied: “I have abso­lutely no evidence to suggest there is a connection between refugees and terrorism.”

Islamic State-inspired gunman Man Haron Monis, who took hostages and killed one of them during the Lindt cafe siege in 2014, came to Australia on a business visa before successfully applying for asylum.

Abdul Numan Haider, the Melbourne 18-year-old killed after attacking police with a knife three months earlier, was an Afghan-born Australian citizen whose family arrived as refugees.

Farhad Jabar, the 15-year-old jihadist who killed NSW police civilian accountant Curtis Cheng in Sydney in 2015 was an Iranian-born Australian citizen of Kurdish-Iraqi background whose family came as refugees.

At least a dozen other first or second-generation Muslim ­mi­grants have been convicted of terror-related charges.


Senator Roberts last night told The Weekend Australian: “We see a lot of terrorism around the world from refugees who have come in particularly from Islamic countries. Most people so far have hidden the obvious correlation between Islam and terrorism and refused to discuss it.

“We’re stunned that ASIO doesn’t do that, and that the Australian Federal Police doesn’t.”

Mr Lewis declined to answer questions requesting he expand on his statements in Senate estimates. He has previously sparked controversy for what some conservative Coalition MPs saw as an effort to play down the threat of ­Islamic radicalisation.

In 2015, The Australian revealed Mr Lewis had telephoned MPs publicly critical of attitudes within the Australian Muslim community, asking them to use the “soothing language favoured by Malcolm Turnbull in their public discussion of Islam”.

Speaking from Liberia last night, Mr Ruddock said it would be unrealistic to say immigration and refugee questions “play no role in relation to trying to resolve difficult issues”, but he said “integrity in selection is always of the ­utmost importance. Some of the people you cite were never refugees and deceived us in relation in to their entitlements.

“Monis was never a refugee. He clearly had difficult psychological problems.”

Mr Ruddock noted many of those who had committed ­Islamic-inspired terrorism here had been born in Australia, and said the question was “why have we failed to pass on our values”, particularly respecting the law.
MULTICULTI...


Dr Aly said: “I think Duncan Lewis knows more than Pauline Hanson, and if Duncan Lewis is saying that, we should be paying attention to him.”

Immigration Minister Peter Dutton declined to comment.

Again with the “left wing media” this time with roach’s favorite cussword “progressive.”

What media in this country is left wing?

Independent Australia?

Crikey?

You can safely assume that “left wing media” is any media that does not 110% back the Libs. That assumption is even surer when it is roach saying it.

It's easier to dismiss and attack then acknowledge and engage.

Snowflakes, Cucks, Left Wingers, Leftie, SJW etc etc, all code for "I'm ignoring what you have to say because I think I'm right".
