Queensland Treasurer Cameron Dick has called on the state’s “ripped off” voters to make federal LNP seats marginal to get a bigger share of the federal budget.
It comes as Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk criticised Canberra for failing to stump up cash for federal quarantine facilities.

Mr Dick said money for Queensland was being promised for years down the track, and the state did not get its fair share.

Minister for Employment and Small Business and Minister for Training and Skills Development The Honourable Di Farmer
The Palaszczuk Government is helping to get 400 more council apprentices and trainees across Queensland their first start in a job, thanks to a $6 million investment through Skilling Queenslanders for Work (SQW).
Visiting Winton Shire Council, Minister for Training and Skills Development Di Farmer said SQW’s First Start program was part of an ongoing commitment to support training pathways and employment opportunities in local communities.
“This next phase supports 60 local councils and a statutory authority to employ the extra apprentices and trainees,” Ms Farmer said.
