LNP leader Deb Frecklington today welcomed the deal struck to end the racing strike, but said Labor had given up any semblance of good government.
“We welcome news that a deal has been struck with the racing industry – but it should never have come to this,” Ms Frecklington said.
“This issue has shown the Palaszczuk Government’s true arrogance and incompetence.
“Labor doesn’t care about racing and they only acted to make a political problem go away.”
LNP Deputy Leader Tim Mander congratulated the racing industry on standing up to the Palaszczuk Government.
“Only the LNP voted against this blatant tax grab,” Mr Mander said.
“Well done to the racing industry for standing up and saying enough is enough.
“Labor’s contempt for the racing industry won’t be forgotten at the ballot box.
“Tomorrow’s unprecedented strike action is a stark reminder of Labor’s botched implementation of this new racing tax.”
