Qld Premier and police commissioner slammed for two flights costing almost $170m

Queensland Premier Steven Miles and Police Commissioner Steve Gollschewski have been slammed over taking two jets which almost cost $170 million in taxpayer money to make announcements in the state’s regional towns. “There are flights everyday to Townsville, Cairns, and Hervey Bay,” says Courier-Mail Columnist and Sky News contributor Des Houghton. “The police minister and the Premier Steven Miles chose to take two government jets at great cost … believed to be worth about $170,000 of taxpayer’s money – these jets landed and took off within five or six minutes of each other,” he told Sky News Australia. “People are saying ‘why did you need two jets?’” Credit to : Sky News Australia
