The
Palaszczuk Labor Government’s treatment of the 2011 flood victims has been
heartless from start to finish.
In a fresh blow revealed today, Government owned corporations SunWater and
SeqWater are looking to appeal a court decision which blamed them for the
damage.
LNP Leader Deb Frecklington said it’s a kick in the guts for flood victims just
five days out from Christmas.
“These families have gone through enough,” Ms Frecklington said.
“They’ve waited nearly a decade for pay-outs and now it appears the delays will
drag on due to Labor inaction.
“Labor is putting insurance companies ahead of the flood victims who lost
everything. Government policy is directed by the ministers, not insurance
bosses.|
“This is Labor’s mess and it needs to be cleaned up.
“This is a heartless blow just before Christmas.
“When Labor announced they won’t appeal for their proportion of the blame, they
gave victims false hope and only told half the truth.
“Annastacia Palaszczuk is in charge of SunWater and SeqWater.
“This entire process has been handled appallingly by the Palaszczuk Labor Government.
“Annastacia Palaszczuk still hasn’t apologised to the victims and needs to do
so today.
“This is yet another example why she is the weakest Premier in Queensland’s
history.”
