George Brandis (Queensland, Liberal Party, Attorney-General) Share this | Hansard source

I did make some observations about Queensland politics on Sunday morning during the course of what I understood to be a private conversation. But, nevertheless, since you have referred to it, Senator Moore, one of the things I said during the course of making those observations was that the Queensland government is very, very mediocre. And so it is. This is the record of mediocrity of the Queensland government. Since the start of this year alone under the Palaszczuk Labor government 68,000 Queenslanders have lost their jobs and another 90,000 have given up looking for work. That is the record.
