Peter Gleeson, Courier Mail columnist & host of The Front Page on Sky News, joins Luke Grant to discuss Annastacia Palaszczuk’s tough border stance which is proven to be a vote catcher.

Mr Gleeson writes, ‘On Saturday, Jacinda Ardern went to the polls, winning a landslide election, becoming the first leader in 50 years to govern with a clear majority.’

‘It was clear that New Zealanders trusted Ms Ardern to guide them through the short and medium term, as businesses impacted by the pandemic try to survive.’

‘It’s that same narrative that Queensland Labor leader Annatasacia Palaszczuk is campaigning on right now.  Unite and recover is Labor’s theme. At a time of high anxiety and major fiscal challenges, don’t risk a detour with Deb Frecklington.’

‘Much of what Labor spins to the electorate is pure fantasy. Their jobs mantra is a mirage. They are the worst-performing job creating government in the country.’

‘They are prolific spenders, a bit like Imelda Marcos in a shoe store. If it’s there they’ll buy it and worry about the credit card at the end of the month.’

‘They have been beset with scandal after scandal, whether it be undeclared house purchases, child safety implosions or simply sports grants.’

‘But they run a great campaign, their MPs do what they’re told and they stick to their message – even though it is hollow.’

‘The Palaszczuk Government have only one message – they kept us safe. It’s a master class in how to win and until the LNP learn how it’s done, Labor will continue to outperform the conservatives.’
