    I doubt any infrastructure would have prevented the floods or the cyclone. As for the residents living in low lying areas, they were all made well aware that they were in a low lying area. Brisbane had a couple of day’s notice that the city would flood, and the State Government and Brisbane City Council could not have done more to inform those who were in it’s path. The Government did not keep people in the dark, on the contrary the premier held a media conference every 2 hours to warn people of what to expect, where and when.

  2. Another good lineup on Q & A this week. I will be most interested in what Anna Bligh has to say about the state of Queensland’s infrastructure and i mean pre floods and Cyclones. Hopefully she will be asked by some brave and intelligent member of the audience why is it that her Government didn’t invest more in infrastructure (roads, drains and water catchments) in preparedness for this exact kind of disaster instead of whinging and whining about the mining tax. Also why the bureaucrats and govts didn’t warn the people if their home was in a low liing area? Instead they kept it to themselves and kept the people in the dark. Now they expect the whole nation to pay for the Queensland Govts blunders, incompetence and penny pinching. That bill will most likely pass. Still it is morally and ethically wrong for the whole nation to pay for the incompetence of a few, in saying that this is nothing new.
