Treasurer Jim Chalmers claims Qld opposition David Crisafulli will 'gut' the state 'like a fish' if he wins October election
He told the crowd of local truck drivers that the period was"disastrous" for the state, and suggested Mr Crisafulli had seen it as"some kind of golden era".“He would absolutely gut Queensland like a fish if he gets the chance to do it, just like Campbell Newman did. This is what’s at stake here in the Queensland election, before we go to a federal election after that.”
Touching on the cost of living crisis impacting tens of thousands of families across the country, Mr Chalmers claimed they would be even worst off under the Liberals. "Leadership which is destructive, and divisive, is not really leadership at all and that's what we are seeing from Peter Dutton," Mr Chalmers said.
