I am as disappointed as anyone in our community that we do not yet have a commitment from the Federal Government to fund upgrades to the Stadium. However, Mr Sawyer chooses to ignore the simple fact that today the Federal Government is investing more taxpayer money in our community than ever before. The Morrison Government is investing more than $3.5 billion dollars in vital upgrades to the Bruce Highway and the North Coast Rail. It has also invested $3 million in the Caloundra Events Centre, $5 million in a High-Performance Sports Hub in Kawana, and hundreds of thousands more in smaller community sports projects.

Clive and coral don t mix Clive Palmer wants to build a coal mine 10km from the waters of the Great Barrier Reef and the Queensland Government has said okay, we will consider it. No, we will not consider it. Someone needs to remind Clive and the Queensland Government that the only way coral and coal can exist together is to leave the coal in the ground. This is a very bad idea on many levels. First and foremost, is global warming, fuelled primarily by the burning of coal. The impacts on the reef are well-known and devastating. We do not need another new coal mine to add to the problem.
