  • Ap2 Final 16.2.17
    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

  • Queensland July to December 2005
    304 Political Chronicles Queensland July to December 2005 PAUL D. WILLIAMS Grth University Observers of Queensland politics could be forgiven for thinking only one issue occupied the state's public sphere in the latter half of 2005: the management (or mismanagement) of health policy. Indeed, the allegations that an allegedly negligent, overseas-trained surgeon caused numerous patient deaths at Bundaberg Hospital (first raised in April 2005 — see previous chronicle) were so convulsive in their effect on the public mood that we may remember 2005's "Dr Death" saga as the principal turning point downwards in the electoral fortunes of Premier Peter Beattie. Moreover, damaging accusations of a "culture" of secrecy within Queensland Health that obfuscated evidence of malpractice directly or indirectly spawned a series of significant events, including four inquiries (of which three were judicial), a ministerial dismissal, two lost by-elections, a reformed Liberal-National coalition and, of course, a collapse in the government's and the Premier's public opinion leads. The Economy The state of the Queensland economy, while generally good, was perhaps less sanguine than many had hoped. While unemployment mid-year stood at just 3.9 per cent, then the second lowest in the nation (Courier- Mail, 8 July 2006), by year's close it once again had climbed toward 5 per cent (http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs%40.nsf/mf/6202.0) . Inflation, too, proved challenging, with the consumer price index increasing 0.8 percentage points in the December quarter (http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/ abs%40.nsf/mf/6401.0).

  • Political Chronicles Commonwealth of Australia
    Australian Journal of Politics and History: Volume 53, Number 2, 2007, pp. 281-336. Political Chronicles Commonwealth of Australia July to December 2006 JOHN WANNA Australian National University and Griffith University Howard’s Divisive Style Comes to the Fore: Never Recant, Never Stand-down, Gradually Give Ground Questioned in late 2006 over the wisdom of invading Iraq, Prime Minister John Howard insisted he did not agree with those who went about “recanting everything they supported when they were in positions of authority”. He argued that […] in public life you take a position, and I think particularly of the decisions I have taken in the time I have been prime minister. I have to live with the consequences of those both now and into the future. And if I ever develop reservations, I hope I would have the grace to keep them to myself, because I think you take a position and you have got to live by that and be judged by it (Australian, 22 November 2006). His message was simple: if he had any personal reservations about invading Iraq he was not about to admit it or to say sorry. By late 2006, the Iraq occupation increasingly overshadowed the internal politics of both the US and the UK, but in Australia the quagmire of Iraq was a far less potent political factor. As one of the original “coalition of the willing”, Howard was implicated in the decision but had far less at stake than the other leaders and no list of casualties to inflict political pain. Moreover, the Labor opposition had not managed to turn the unpopular war into a political positive for itself.

  • Queensland January to June, 2009
    Political Chronicles 603 Queensland January to June, 2009 PAUL D. WILLIAMS School of Humanities, Griffith University Overview The first half of 2009 saw some of the most remarkable developments in recent Queensland political history. A state election that recorded a number of firsts — including the unexpectedly easy return of the first woman premier in Australia — coupled with a declining economy, a tough state budget, the proposed sale of 604 Political Chronicles government-owned corporations, and the rapid surge in support for a troubled opposition despite its convincing defeat just weeks before. If nothing else, this period underscored the vagaries of state politics. January The Liberal-National Party (LNP) opposition, emboldened by its successful amalgamation in mid 2008, came out swinging at year's beginning. Opposition leader Lawrence Springborg kicked off his unofficial election campaign in early January with a curious policy launch at an Ipswich motor cycle store. But conservative forces were soon distracted when Nationals Senator Barnaby Joyce sounded out pre-selection possibilities for the lower house seat of Dawson and, later, a Northern New South Wales district. Joyce soon abandoned the plan for want of support. Premier Anna Bligh was forced into her own backflip when she scuttled a move to allow drivers to claim the 8.3 cent per litre petrol subsidy directly from service stations. The Premier soon backflipped again, this time over plans to axe unprofitable Queensland Rail rural freight lines. Meanwhile, the Queensland economy appeared to stall, with 1,300 jobs lost in just two months (Courier Mail, 15 January 2009). The year's first community cabinet, in Townsville, thus doubled as a jobs summit.

  • Queensland July to December 2001
    Political Chronicles 259 Queensland July to December 2001 JOHN WANNA School of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University A One Party State? By late 2001 the Beattie Labor government was administering Queensland in cruise- control. With a forty-three seat majority in Parliament, a relatively strong ministry and a weak and ineffective opposition, the government was simply increasing its dominance in the first year of its second term. There was much talk of Queensland having become a one-party state (run by Premier Peter Beattie and his deputy and Treasurer Terry Mackenroth — with the AWU still the most dominant faction in the government and party caucus). By December 2001 the Premier was basking in an exceedingly high popularity rating of 73 per cent with only 16 per cent dissatisfied with his performance (Australian, 29 November 2001). His government was equally polling well with up to 54 per cent of popular support over the latter half of 2001 (Morgan Poll, Sept-October figures). In December Labor attracted 51 per cent support according to both Newspoll and Morgan opinion polls, compared to 23-26 per cent for the Liberals and just 7-9 per cent for the National Party. The major movement in the polls was the return of support to the Liberals who had clawed back some ground since the election of February (when 260 Political Chronicles they received just over 14 per cent of the popular vote). The Nationals, however, continued to languish in single figures with their state-wide popularity never higher than 9 per cent from March to December.

  • Queensland July to December, 2006
    Political Chronicles 301 Queensland July to December, 2006 PAUL D. WILLIAMS Griffith University and The Courier Mail Overview The last half of 2006 saw some government crises — health and water — continue, and new crises emerge over scandals involving former ministers and protests over dams and Palm Island. But a lacklustre — even self-immolating — Opposition failed to 302 Political Chronicles exploit these dramas that, after a change in the Liberal leadership, saw the Labor government comfortably returned at an early general election. Before the Storm... Health issues again launched the period when news leaked of a memo from Queensland Health Director-General Uschi Schreiber that hospital surgery waiting lists remained static, despite government advertising, costing more than $3 million, claiming the contrary (Courier Mail, 10 July, 2006). But water remained the government's principal concern. In considering two dam proposals, Premier Peter Beattie faced angry protestors in July at Rathdowney (near Beaudesert), only to tell them that Wyralong (near Boonah) would be the new dam site, and not Tilley's Bridge. Fifteen properties at Boonah were set for resumption at a cost of $30 million. But Beattie's problems had only begun at the Traveston Crossing (near Gympie) dam site. Despite offering the "good" news of halving the dam's size, the premier still faced 2,000 hostile locals. Noosa Labor MP Cate Molloy continued her opposition to the dam (see previous chronicle) and voted with the Opposition at an Estimates Committee hearing in demand of the tabling of all related documents. Around the same time, the Premier launched into capital works overdrive and announced $10 billion of infrastructure spending over four years, largely, it was assumed, to placate an anxious business community before the state election.
