Media Release from Shane Knuth regarding New LNP

Member for Charters Towers, Shane Knuth is eagerly anticipating the future of Queensland following the formation of the new conservative force in politics, the LNP.
Mr Knuth said the party will bring great benefits to Queensland. “This exciting decision to form a new conservative party will solve the issues of three-cornered contests and most importantly the splitting of the conservative vote which has been costly at every election.”
Mr Knuth said it has also solved the issue of who would be Premier. Mr Knuth added that the blame for current crises in infrastructure, loss of services including health, closure of railways and rising costs on all fronts can rightly be laid at the feet of the present State Labor Government, but the Opposition can also share some of the blame for being weak and divided.
“The new LNP will provide a fresh alternative that will present good, strong policies and give Queenslanders a credible choice. There is a long way to go to removing the Government’s majority in Parliament but with a united front this is very achievable.” Mr Knuth said.
