Frustration is rising in parts of flood-affected Queensland, over a lack of assistance to deal with the aftermath of the deluge.

In Gayndah south-west of Bundaberg, many residents have been without power and waiting for help since Sunday.

I seem to recall asking a few months ago, as Newman cut Queensland’s public service to shreds, who would repair Queensland when it next flooded? I didn’t have to wait long.

In my view it's too early to tell, that would be a correct answer at this time, and the focus should be on Newman being accountable for his actions.

This bodes well for federal Labor in my view as they will be perceived as providing a safety net to the LNP's extremism.
