Queensland State Election

March 12, 2010 - 4:18 pm 25 Comments

My submission to Project Next with the ABC.

The parties in question:

Australian Labor Party:

And their leader in Queensland, Anna Bligh:

(this link might need to change should the LNP win the election)

Liberal National Party:
http://www.lnp.org.au/index.php

And their leader Lawrence Springborg:

For the benefit of the Americans (and anyone else who’s confused) I should clarify: ‘Liberal’ in Australia actually means right-wing, so the Liberal Party here is kind-of-sort-of similar to your Republican Party.

March 5, 2010 - 1:29 am 1 Comment

I’m 17 and will be 18 in the next month. I just want to know step by step how to get a motorbike licence in queensland. I only have my learner licence for a car so i would appreciate it if i got the the steps to geting a MB licnece from that point.

I really dunno – if you could post this question you could find the appropriate website for the Qld Dept. of motor transport& get the proper info.Or better still go to your nearest motor registery and talk to someone that knows.He who tries succeeds – he who sits on his a$$ gets nothing.

Can anyone suggest some great walking trails in Queensland?

My gf and I love bush walking & we’d want to know some great walking tracks around the Queensland area.

You will really love Springbrook on the gold coast hinterland, it is absolutely beautiful there and quite a number of tracks to do at different waterfalls.
The other ones are Glasshouse Mountains and then you have the ones on the Sunshine coast hinterland.

I have 7 score in IELTS and am trying for the migration.
what is the minimum IELTS score needed for Queensland’s position on the SRS visa?

It depends on your occupation but in general, 7s across the 4 bands will be more than enough for Queensland SRS sponsorship. 5s would be enough for most trades and 6s for most other occupations.

Qland license is diferent to the rest to rest of Australia. SO I am just curious to as to how picky the bouncers are in Launceston?

Okay this is the funniest Q I have seen in a long time! Dude, Tassie is not another country. If you can drive in Qld then you can drive in Tassie.

Will my Queensland proof of age card be accepted out in Sydney?

February 19, 2010 - 2:25 am 4 Comments

I’ve only ever lived in Queensland and i don’t have my drivers license or like taking my passport out so i only ever use my proof of age card. Some have told me this will not work however. Anyone know if i am able to use it out in Sydney?

It should be, but you cant always guarantee it. Some of my friends have Canberra proof of age cards and a handful of pubs around NSW dont like it and occasionally wont let them in with it. But most of the time we don’t have a problem, and you should be fine. Just take a secondary form of id with you, like a student card to help prove it is you, just in case.
