16/5
Albo on TV ruling out a coalition with the Greens. What rubbish. Same quality of promise as Gillard's "there will be no carbon tax on a government I lead." Cynical Simon, Earlville
Funny how when a "white supremacist" shoots up a supermarket his race is all over the media but when a "black supremacist" mows down a Christmas parade in a ute his race doesn't get a mention at all. Morrie, Herberton
RE: CP Editorial, 16/5, could one of the underlying factors in the surging cost of electricity be the current fad of forcing unreliable wind and solar into the grid? Because for all the promises of "cheaper energy" over the past 20 years our power bills have only risen. Lorraine, Ravenshoe
The coalmine challenge (CP, 16/5) is doomed to fail because no link between coal and gas mining and global warming has ever been established. If it had it would be being waved aloft by every activist on the planet. Dean, Brinsmead
Matt Johnston, neither Morrison or Albanese are working for us anymore. They take their orders from the wealthy club that meets in Davos. TS, Mooroobool
The only economic rationalists running in this election are the United Australia Party. They're the only ones who have put forward a plan and timeline to pay back the gigantic ALP-LNP debt. Brett, Kuranda
Margaret (16/05) according to the Bureau of Statistics Covid report, Morrison didn't save anyone who wouldn't have died of ordinary flu. In other words, all the debt and disruption left us no better off. He should have stuck to our 2018 pandemic plan instead of binning it and following the WHO. Aged Care Worker, Kuranda
A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you've got. Vivienne, Edge Hill
"Queensland's wettest May in more than 30 years." So not "unprecedented" at all, climate alarmists. Jeannie, Kuranda
If the Qld govt didn't take ALL Ergon's profit, it might be able to afford the staff to connect new customers. Juss Sayen, Cairns
"Fortunes to be made in sustainability" (16/05) - yes, because subsidy farming is the most profitable type of farming. Only taxpayers can be forced to pay for products they don't want or need. Economist, Cairns
Exactly right, Ley James (CP, letters, 16/5), recession is now inevitable and will worsen under either ALP or LNP - as they've been instructed to do by the WEF. And anyone who thinks we won't be back in lockdown by June under ALP or LNP has rocks in their heads. A vote for ALP or LNP is a vote to destroy our freedom and prosperity forever. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North
Gary G Smith (16/5), you've made it abundantly clear that you're a Labor man, but how can you genuinely believe that none of your criticisms of the Libs equally apply to Labor? Chris, Ravenshoe

14/5
I'd rather see a race to explain how the Liberals and Labor are going to pay off what they already owe than a race to spend even more that they'll borrow in our names. Blake, Clifton Beach
How come neither Labor or Liberals have promised to rebuild our domestic pharmaceutical industry? Did they learn nothing from the covid pandemic? It was those two parties who sent our pharmaceutical industry to China under the 1970s Lima Agreement. David, Redlynch
The only economic rationalists running in this election are the United Australia Party. They're the only ones who have put forward a plan and timeline to pay back the gigantic ALP-LNP debt. Brett, Kuranda
Never forget that the ivory tower residents at Ports North get obscene salaries around $450,000 to pick on aged pensioner yachties. Mariner, Portsmith
American founding father Thomas Jefferson said, "It is incumbent on every generation to pay its debt as it goes''. But the debt that the Labor and Liberal parties created in the name of "Covid", will take six to eight generations to pay off. Juss Sayen, Cairns
Roland Ziegler, I certainly agree with you but for some strange reason the majority of voters are likely to re-elect either a Labor or Liberal government instead of giving someone else a go. Mark, Redlynch
Well said, George (14/5). Nuclear has advanced a lot in recent decades and if we want to cut down on carbon dioxide plant food we need to build nuclear power plants. Only the UAP is proposing to do so. Voter, Kanimbla
The cost of living (CP, 14/5) is going through the roof and everything coming out of ALP/LNP mouths will make it worse. Along with the Greens, they believe in high-octane magic pudding economics. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North

13/5
With a trillion dollars debt and no plans to pay it back, the Labor plan to waste another $194 million on the Reef is a huge insult to voters. Theresa, Atherton
You want to know why there was coral that died from "heat exposure" when corals much prefer heat to cold? Because the seas are falling and leaving them exposed to the air. That's right; seas are falling, not rising. Realist, Cairns North
Labor and Liberal are both in favour of high inflation and high interest rates. If they weren't, they'd be working to reduce the debt they created. GTS, Kanimbla
Squandering our wealth on the Reef when it is the most resilient ecosystem on earth is a total insult to the taxpayers who own that money. Jessica, Yorkeys Knob
The excess deaths amongst the fully vaccinated are becoming impossible to ignore in all developed countries. These younger fatalities are not dying with or of covid. We have a lot of politicians and bureaucrats who belong in jail. Desmond, Tully
Lesley Clark (13/5), you can spin it any way you want, but your mob said two metres of sea level rise by 2010 and no polar ice by 2013. You believe in political fairy tales. F.M.D., Yorkeys Knob
2021 saw the fewest hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones in the satellite era. We must urgently close down our reliable electricity generators to stop this. MW, Redlynch
Just wondering, with all the certainty about bleaching and sea level rise and all the rest of it, why isn't any low-lying city in Australia building a sea wall and pumping stations? Cutting emissions here will make no difference when China opens a new coal power station every ten days. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North
