THE State Labor Government needs to explain why they have given Mackay Conservation Group $5 for every job they kill off for workers desperate for employment.There are some serious questions which need to be answered by the Palaszczuk Government regarding their $50,000 donation to Mackay Conservation Group in the wake of the latest delay to Adani’s Carmichael Coal Project.The Premier of this state needs to explain why she wants to fund a group who are hell-bent on destroying the biggest job-creating project on the table.They’ve given $50,000 to Mackay Conservation Group, and this is the group who are doing their darndest to kill off 10,000 jobs.This effectively means the State Labor Government is paying them $5 for every job they aim to kill off.They’re feeding the hand that’s biting us and the workers of this region deserve some answers on this.Why is the Palaszczuk Government providing funds to a group which mounts legal challenges to destroy job-creating projects and the thousands of jobs and billions of dollars that go with them?The donation of $50,000 to the Mackay Conservation Group was included in the State Government’s budget handed down last month.There is no mention of the purpose of the donation; it is simply given “to support of the Mackay Conservation Group”.LinkBudget measures for Mackay: http://www.budget.qld.gov.au/regional-budget-statements/mackay.php
