One million reasons the Health Minister must go

IN the middle of the Queensland Health Crisis the Palaszczuk Government spent $1 million on social media posts and television ads to promote itself.

Queenslanders have seen the Palaszczuk Government run the health system to crisis point and now, instead of actually fixing it, they spent $1 million to try and repair their image.

If the embattled Health Minister wasn’t so incompetent and the Palaszczuk Government hadn’t failed to plan for 7 years, then it wouldn’t need to spend $1 million on its image.

This government cares more about protecting its political life instead of the lives of Queenslanders.

$1 million could have funded more nurses or doctors.

$1 million could have helped fund beds.

$1 million could have funded more paramedics.

$1 million could have funded more obstetricians in Gladstone where mothers are at risk of having babies on the side of the road.

$1 million could have funded a doctor at Clermont where they’ve been without one for years.

$1 million could have helped fund more ambulances.

The list goes on.

This is another million reasons why the embattled Health Minister Yvette D’Ath should be sacked today.

Queensland deserves better.
