Premier Beattie ... "significant recycled water trials ...

... like that proposed for Toowoomba".

Comments by Premier "water water everywhere" Beattie in State parliament this morning when commenting on the forthcoming appearance this weekend of Senator Bob Brown for the Greens' organised dam protests:

"... he ought to be staying in Canberra and sending a clear message to the Commonwealth that they should be getting behind significant recycled water trials like that proposed for Toowoomba".

Source - State parliament Hansard - 25 May 2006.

So, even Premier Beattie now admits that the State government wants to conduct trials using Toowoomba residents.

If it looks and sounds like the Toowoomba community will be the State's lab rats ...

Beattie has made it clear - recycled water trials in Toowoomba.

It's an experiment and we are the lab rats.

That's because we have a gutter rat for a mayor, what did Beattie offer her in return for subjecting us to this plan. Beattie needs investigating as well, how could he give all of SE QLD new water, and leave 140000+ people out of the picture.

The state Gov. has no idea that they will be killing a city off, and Beatiie thinks we'll all move to the coast or Brisbane.. I'm moving interstate.

Caught out Beattie. We know you want to conduct trials on the people in Toowoomba. No way. Why not do it in your own electorate first.
