Sky News contributor Daisy Cousens says Queensland LNP has provided no point of difference on their views regarding the state's border closure compared to Queensland Labor, and seem just as “preoccupied with polling and popularity”.

Sky News contributor Daisy Cousens says Queensland LNP has provided no point of difference on their views regarding the state's border closure compared to Queensland Labor, and seem just as “preoccupied with polling and popularity”. Ms Cousens said Queensland Labor’s handling of the Queensland – New South Wales border had “exposed an unattractive preoccupation with popularity and polling”.

“And let's not forget; Queensland CHO Jeanette Young admitted during the AFL-Tom Hanks fiasco that she makes decisions regarding the border based on economics, not public health. “Also, how wonderfully coincidental that the date flagged for border reopening is one day after the Queensland election. “That timing doesn't do much to dispel the accusation that the border closure is merely political.

Steven Miles 'is an embarrassment for Queensland' | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator James McGrath says Queensland Health Minister Steven Miles is “an embarrassment for Queensland”.\n\nPresident Trump and First Lady Melania Trump both tested positive for COVID-19 and have gone into quarantine to recover, announcing the news via Twitter. \n\nMr Miles responded to the tweet, commenting “Have you considered intravenous disinfectant?”.\n\n“Stephen Miles is what I call a double-flush, this guy is an embarrassment for Queensland,” Mr McGrath told Sky News host Paul Murray. \n\n“What I don’t understand is, it’s ok for the health minister to joke about coronavirus, but it’s not ok for a daughter to go to her dad’s funeral, it’s not ok for someone who has gone through brain surgery to get an exemption.\n\n“We’ve got these classic double standards with Stephen Miles.\n\n“He holds a position of responsibility … but hang on mate, make some consistent decisions based on common sense rather than engaging in twitter wars.”\n\n“There are more mature people in sandpits in a local kindergarten than you see with Stephen Miles.\n\n “I’m just embarrassed for him.'
