Queensland Police Assistant Commissioner Brian Connors says we Queenslanders are a "mark" for Qld police officers.
All former Queensland Police commissioners since the Fitzgerald Inquiry have supported protest.

Rose coloured glasses? The old, romantic version of the good cops? In my personal experience it's far more nuanced.

Friday essay: I grew up fearing Queensland cops. Then I hung out with 17 Gold Coast detectives
Sally Breen wanted to know more about real police work after she met a Queensland top cop who seemed good. The stories she found sit under her skin like lava.

Premier Minns held a press conference on alleged police violence against protesters, which he referred to as "feeding the chooks".
Reacting to questions about the investigation, he only commented:
"Don't you worry about that".

Very significant submission from the Catholic Archdiocese in Brisbane against Qld Premier David Crisafulli's "criminalisation of speech". The church was mostly silent during the suffering of the people under the Newman government. New Pope Leo XIV made a change mid-2025. #qldpol

Not since the Joh era last century has Queensland experienced anything like the recent scenes on Sydney streets. Not even during the multiple Newman government protests 2012-2015 did the Queensland police act in such a way. #qldpol www.bbc.com/news/article...

I can sense political tensions rising again in Queensland. Just a reminder not to take protests onto the Queensland Parliamentary precinct. It's a criminal offence to do so. This is the history of it.

In Qld, the Crisafulli government's "Fighting Antisemitism & Keeping Guns out of the Hands of Terrorists & Criminals Amendment Bill 2026" consolidates power with the Qld A-G to criminalise phrases. That person is former OL & Newman government member, Deb Frecklington. #qldpol

Initiated all those years ago by Queensland Premier Anna Bligh, Gold Coast light rail has reached terminus but it will still be a while before the first commute.
No sooner were David Crisafulli & Jarrod Bleijie in power than they cancelled the stage 4 Burleigh to Airport project. #qldpol

"The Queens-land of opportunity." After 16 months, Qld Premier David Crisafulli has developed a new slogan. He'll travel to Washington DC to sell the state's critical minerals, invite Donald Trump to Australia & lobby to host the Quad. It's unknown who he'll meet with. #qldpol
