Letter to the Editor
I, along with many others in the Northern Beaches received a flier from Sam Cox yesterday, my LNP candidate for my local electorate of Thuringowa. I take a keen interest in policy and would very much like to know more details on the following policy:
Improve standards in schools
. Roll out Independent Public Schools? to drive higher standards in education and deliver real options for parents and students?
What on Earth does this malarkey actually mean in Australian English speak?
Like so many of the other LNP aspirations it does not make sense to the average everyday voter, and really is worded in such a way that voters immediately become suspicious of the real, underlying meaning. This process of trying to bamboozle voters will backfire on the LNP unless they come out and explain exactly what this and other “policy” statements actually mean in practice.
I am a swinging voter like many, and will go with the party who clearly and simply explains their policies. At this moment in time that will be The Greens, easy to find information, all I had to do was Google Queensland Greens.
