Crisafulli arrived at the meeting this morning at Parliament House in Brisbane alongside outgoing leader Deep Frickington
He will now fight the battle against the bold Labor government, and he will be the fifth leader of the National Liberal Party, Anastasia Palachchok to fight back.
Toowoomba’s South Representative David Janitsky will be the party’s deputy leader, having overcome the challenges of Dell Last, Steve Miniken and Christian Rowan
Chrisafuli told the party room that he felt humbled by their support after his promotion to the top position
“There are people in this situation who are heading into 2021 with a great degree of uncertainty
Mr Crisafulli thanked Mrs. Frecklington for her « courtesy and diligence » as she was applauded by her colleagues
« We will make sure that we hold the government accountable when there is something worth supporting, so we will support it by all means, » he added
This comes at a time when Prime Minister Anastasia Palashchuk yesterday unveiled her new appearance in the front post, as she made a trip to the seat of government to formally assume her place in history as Prime Minister for a third term.
Unveiling her priorities while working to guide Queensland’s economic recovery through the COVID pandemic, Ms. Palaszczuk unveiled a new hydrogen portfolio as she pledged to invest in the lucrative energy source over the next four years.
Mick de Brenne will be assigned the job, which Labor hopes will see the industry thrive just as the LNG industry did under the Betty and Baligh governments.
The Prime Minister, who will keep trade by changing her front platform, has also appointed a new Minister for Water in Regional Development and Minister for Manufacturing Glenn Butcher as recognition of this valuable resource.
The Cabinet announcement came after Mrs. Palaszczuk attended the Government Building to meet Governor Paul de Jersey and informed him that she had the numbers needed to form a government.
This came on the heels of a flurry of activity by the Queensland Election Commission yesterday, which officially announced seats for the evening
Meanwhile, Grace Grace appears likely to ascend to the powerful government budget review committee alongside Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Stephen Miles and Treasurer Cameron Dick as the fourth-oldest member of government after Kate Jones’ retirement.
And in a big promotion for Shannon Venteman, the recruitment attorney became the new Attorney General and Minister of Justice, and the Minister for Women and the Prevention of Domestic and Family Violence added to her duties.
Other notable changes include Stirling Henschliffe, whose previous local government responsibilities have been transferred to the Deputy Prime Minister and now Minister for Tourism, Industry Development and Sports.
Townsville-based Scott Stewart will be the Secretary of Resources and his newly appointed colleague Leanne Lennard has been given child safety responsibilities, but the title has been changed to Minister for Children, Youth Justice and Multicultural Affairs.
