Dripping Queensland Premier Campbell Newman making sure trick cyclist Tony Abbott is not seen anywhere during the election campaign by personally supervising the erection of 1000 no -cyclists signs throughout the Sunshine State . Newman made the point that he did not need the Prime Minister to hold his hand while electioneering. Instead, he held the hoary hand of the Acting Prime Minister , Warren "de-Padded " Truss , of the never say boo to the Liberals Notional Party .
But hang on a moment , wasn't Tony Abbott warmly welcomed to Queensland by the LNP and seen glad-handing, back slapping Can Do Campbell during the two Brisbane by-elections period last year ?
Yep. At that stage, the LNP held just about every seat in parliament except that which was occupied by the Stone of Scone , and was projecting itself as the dynamic force with vision , plans for an underground Olympic cycling velodrome in downtown Brisbane and another on the tip of Cape York Peninsula , near the overgrown proposed site for Joh's space rocket launching pad. Somehow , the LNP emerged with flat tyres in both by-elections , with massive swings against it , which if repeated at this state election could see the LNP told to hit the tarmac . It showed the PM was as popular in Queensland as a NSW cockroach in a State of Origin match.
As a result , there are now signs going up on beaches and wharves throughout Queensland to prevent Tony and tricycle being smuggled in aboard an inflated pigskin bladder raft paddled by his close cobber , Senator Cordy Bernardi.
