a, ah goodie, full gabba refurb back in the plans. woo hoo.

 

[Captivating]

Yeah, lock up the kids, turn them into career criminals

**** the LNP

I've got a radical idea. How about discipline and educate your kids so they don't commit a crime?

Or is educating your kids someone else's responsibility?

Yeah and if the parents fail to do that, it's the state's responsibility to do something which has historically been shown to increase the likelihood of recidivism by locking them up. Great strategy.

Should be reduced to whatever payout figure we can negotiate for cancellation.

Get Dan to negotiate for you

There would be mainstream voters abandoning the greens based on thier stance about issues that aren't really in the front of mind for the average voter

I'd contend that voting for the Greens has never, ever crossed the mind of "mainstream" voters.

Or around 85+% of the population for that matter. And I'm being generous with that percentage.

Lol....locking them up...more like out of bail.....again...and.......again

At least the QLD ALP government actually planned to deliver unlike Dan who only used it as an election stunt.

See there is one good policy coming out of this. We now ain't going to waste a billion dollars building the most embarrassing Olympic stadium in history only to tear it down 2 months later and rebuild the gabba anyway like Labor was planning on doing.

And if the kids parents don't why should the kids suffer?

You have just answered the question as to why throwing them in jail isn't the solution. Get to the source of the problem first so they don't go down the dangerous path of committing crimes. How is throwing them in jail going to fix that? You want to talk about cost to the taxpayer it's a huge cost that will build up over time. Why are they committing crimes? Or does that not matter if your an LNP voter?. This policy is the definition of making it someone else's problem to deal with instead of fixing it to begin with but hey let's wait 4 years and see the results.

What could possibly go wrong?

I was in Qld when those cuts were made. These old dudes at DTMR all got made redundant, bought boats and then were put on as contractors within weeks.

They'd rather see kids die than admit that that the war on drugs is a farce.

That's the conservative way. Feelings over facts!

Queensland to change youth justice laws after supermarket stabbing

Article:

Mr Potts was also critical of the government's wider tough-on-crime approach.

"Members of the public may be surprised, but 13-year-olds do not sit around in the parks of Yamanto wondering whether they'll commit a crime or not, because they suddenly know that they can be treated as adults," he said.

"The simple truth is, 13-year-olds don't read the newspapers, don't watch the news, and even if they did, their brains are not formed sufficiently for them to make judgements about doing these things."

Katherine Hayes, chief executive of the Youth Advocacy Centre, agreed.

"There's been a narrative in Queensland that we're not giving kids consequences, that we've got a revolving door for courts, but we're locking up more kids than anywhere else in Australia," she said.

"More than Victoria and New South Wales combined, but it's just not working and we're about to spend $1 billion on a new detention centre, when all of the evidence shows that locking kids up doesn't significantly reduce offending."

Tough on crime has never worked…

Reducing reoffending isn't the point for the tough on crime people. They just want offenders to suffer.

Retributive justice seems mainly to get citizens to feel better about the law and vote for lawmakers who put it in place.

It's actual utility in reforming citizens who engage in criminal behaviour is known to be almost non-existent.

Politicians who trumpet their retributive justice cred care about their jobs more than they care about victims of crime.

I'm sure Crisafulli is a keen Trump supporter though. Liberal MPs have been conspicuously silent about his return to government.
