The Palaszczuk Labor government is too prepared to listen to minority Left-wing voters instead of the everyday Queenslander, according to Sky News contributor Campbell Newman. The comments come as a petition with over 390 signatures called for the state government to rename Russell Island because the area is "named for Lord Russell, who voted against slavery abolition". "Minority left wing voices in Queensland hold far too much sway with the Palaszczuk government "That is what we are seeing here, a petition with 300 or 400 signatures to change to change the name of Russell Island, which is on Moreton Bay, just to the east of Brisbane, has been received by the government."
