Looks like the Northern Rivers could use Queenslands newman to really get the runs on the board.
When newman arrived unemployment in Queensland in 2012 was 5.5%.
Unemployment in Queensland is now 7%.
Another fine example of how good CSG and coal mining is for Queenslanders.
Strange John Fraser that you equate CSG and Coal mining to employment figures - personally I'd look at the number of non-producing public servants Newman got rid of to explain the jump?
