Annastacia Palaszczuk Resigns, and claims she is leaving the 'State in Good Shape'. · The Slippery Slope

• 0:13
  Hi Jay Fallon, thanks for listening to the slippery slope.
• 0:16
  So if you're living in Queensland which is just happens
• 0:20
  to be the greatest state not just within Australia in the
• 0:24
  world, take my word for it happens to be the state where I
• 0:28
  live in. If you happen to be living here
• 0:30
  well then you will know that our premier Anastasia Palache pulled
• 0:36
  a pin on her political career last night.
• 0:38
  I believe it was. She believes she is leaving
• 0:41
  behind a great legacy. She she states that she's that
• 0:47
  the state of Queensland is in is running in good form and she's
• 0:52
  leaving it leaving it in in in in great health.
• 0:57
  This is what she believes. I think there's she's caused a
• 1:01
  lot lot of problems throughout her career.
• 1:04
  A lot more than you could even I I had no idea how she kept kept
• 1:08
  getting voted in. She really saved the Labour
• 1:11
  Party when they were at the very lowest that they could go here
• 1:14
  in Queensland, turned it around. I think it might have been kind
• 1:17
  of her girl next door attitude that she first came along with
• 1:21
  and then for some reason we kept voting for her.
• 1:23
  When I say we, I mean other people out there because I
• 1:25
  didn't want to. Part of her.
• 1:27
  She made a a fool of Queenslanders when it came to
• 1:31
  the COVID period and what she did with the borders, locking
• 1:34
  down the borders, keeping families separated.
• 1:38
  But at the same time, I believe she allowed herself to go to
• 1:42
  Japan was it for a trip? She also allowed sports people
• 1:45
  to come in because heaven forbid we could, you know, have one
• 1:50
  rule for everyone. I think it was the NRL grand
• 1:53
  final or something. You know the families of NRLI
• 1:56
  mean we love our footy. But you know why?
• 2:00
  Why on earth should the football players or the football players
• 2:02
  family have been given special exemptions and yet we had
• 2:06
  families literally living only kilometres apart down on the
• 2:11
  Queensland, NSW border. They weren't allowed to, weren't
• 2:15
  allowed to come across, families who would just shut off.
• 2:20
  Forget about it. If you lived over in WA and you
• 2:23
  wanted and you need to come over because you had that dictator
• 2:26
  McGowan ruling ruling with an iron fist over in WA and then
• 2:31
  you had al lovely Anastasia ruling with an iron fist here in
• 2:36
  QLD allowing the allowing the the Queensland Police
• 2:42
  commissioner to bring in COVID mandates.
• 2:47
  She was someone who she started off extremely popular.
• 2:50
  I found she had no backbone. She really, she really didn't
• 2:55
  seem to stand for anything in particular.
• 2:58
  She seemed to like the limelight, seemed to go to a lot
• 3:03
  of red carpet events, really like the limelight.
• 3:08
  She got the new boyfriend a little while ago, the surgeon
• 3:11
  and mate. Her head just did not seem to be
• 3:13
  in the game ever since he came on a board.
• 3:16
  Like I said, she seemed to make a real mess of some of the
• 3:20
  issues when it came to COVID. A mockery of some of the things
• 3:24
  when it came to COVID. I think as much as she may
• 3:29
  believe that she's got her legacy is her legacy is
• 3:34
  extremely good. I think people are going to be
• 3:37
  looking back at this, this time frame and realizing just what a
• 3:41
  poor job she did. I'm going to read a couple of
• 3:44
  comments, couple of comments that came across from our
• 3:49
  listeners who seem to be all over.
• 3:52
  One says that I think Anna was given the option of the noose or
• 3:55
  the plank. It was only last week that Anna
• 3:57
  stated that I'll be finishing my term and leading the party into
• 4:01
  the next election and she took the plank option.
• 4:04
  And what I think they're talking about here is it seemed pretty
• 4:07
  obvious that Anastasia's popularity had plummeted and
• 4:12
  this, her popularity was the only thing that was keeping her
• 4:15
  in power because it's not even her side of the of the Labour
• 4:19
  Party that were ruling that had the power.
• 4:22
  She's, I believe on the supposed the righter side of politics.
• 4:26
  It's the left side of the Labour Party that's running things at
• 4:29
  the moment really and she's really just a figurehead.
• 4:31
  But she had no power. She didn't really stand for
• 4:33
  anything, this other other listener said, NSW, NT, WA,
• 4:39
  Victoria, all shock resignations can't vote them out yet.
• 4:43
  Here we are. Look, Dan Andrews resigned just
• 4:47
  a couple of was it a month ago or so.
• 4:50
  Here's another one. His legacy is atrocious, yet he
• 4:54
  kept getting voted in. These people were getting voted
• 4:57
  in back in when the, you know, everyone was living in fear.
• 5:01
  The fear that they kept, they kept announcing that we had to,
• 5:05
  we had to be fearful of COVID. And then they got voted back in.
• 5:09
  And we've seen now that people like Dan Andrews and Anastasia
• 5:14
  Palaszczuk, their popularity was plummeting and so they've chosen
• 5:18
  to pull the pin, thinking they they'll go out on their terms.
• 5:22
  Really, they could see the writing on the wall.
• 5:24
  So the last comment I was going to read was from Man of Faith
• 5:27
  Ministries, he said. Because Anastasia said she's
• 5:30
  leaving the state in good shape. Like you said, that narcissistic
• 5:34
  comment shows all and sundry just how much this woman is
• 5:39
  detached from reality. Talk about detached from
• 5:41
  reality. Like I mentioned before, she
• 5:43
  kept showing off with these red carpet events.
• 5:46
  Everyone was seeing it, just travelling all over the world,
• 5:48
  showing going to all these red carp events here in Queensland
• 5:52
  and that and it seemed like you're sitting there going,
• 5:55
  who's actually running the state here?
• 5:57
  Who's doing the job? She, I think she'd pulled the
• 6:00
  pin a while ago. She had the new boyfriend for a
• 6:03
  while now and she's more interested in him than anything
• 6:05
  else. Anyway, he goes on to say the
• 6:09
  reporter called her a trailblazer in the lead in the
• 6:12
  lead in. But I would be more inclined to
• 6:14
  say arsonist who set the fire of destruction and then leaves the
• 6:19
  aftermath for everyone else. I've got a yeah, I agree with
• 6:24
  you man of faith. Definitely the arsonist.
• 6:26
  She may cause so many problems in her leaving, I don't think in
• 6:32
  in reality. I think it's going to be one of
• 6:33
  those situations where when she's gone, people are going to
• 6:36
  realize just how many issues she caused, like what's happening
• 6:40
  now in Victoria with Dan Andrews.
• 6:42
  They're looking back, thinking he politicized that state, the
• 6:46
  police so badly. She's done exactly the same
• 6:49
  thing here, just with a bit of a nicer smile on her face.
• 6:53
  That's about all she's done. So obviously we have to get a
• 6:56
  new leader or the Labour Party and a new premier, which I I
• 7:00
  hate this fact that they can pull the pin And then we, you
• 7:04
  know, we just end up with a new leader like this anyway.
• 7:08
  But who's it going to be that that Lady Fenterman, the one who
• 7:12
  says, you know, that if a man stands up and says he's a woman,
• 7:16
  well then we all have to believe it.
• 7:18
  She doesn't come across as the, what can I say, that's kind of
• 7:26
  nice. I don't think she.
• 7:28
  I don't think she's the most fit person, put it that way.
• 7:31
  Stephen Miles wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him to
• 7:36
  be quite frank, but that's probably due to some other
• 7:42
  biases I have. But that's probably going to be
• 7:45
  a choice between them two, really, and I don't trust either
• 7:49
  of them anyway. Let's see how it all works out.
• 7:52
  Let me know what you think about Anastasia Palache leaving,
• 7:56
  pulling the pin on being a premier of the great state of
• 8:00
  Queensland. And do you think she's left the
• 8:02
  state in good shape? That's the question.
• 8:06
  I think in the future they're going to be looking back at
• 8:10
  Anastasia Palache and not judging her with the fondness
• 8:15
  that she believes she'll be judged with.
• 8:17
  Anyway, that's just my opinion. You let me know what you think.
• 8:20
  Thank you for listening to the slippery slide they.
