The stupidity of Queensland Labor and their imbecilic wildlife officers who want to remove a 3.5 m crocodile which killed a 16 year old Sabai Island youth this week continues to worsen.
Sabai Island is the second largest Island in the Torres Strait at 25,000 acres and just a stone’s throw from PNG.

The area is teeming with crocodiles which travel to and from PNG’s Fly River and inhabit the maze of all island waterfronts, creeks and estuaries.
Two teenagers were in their tinny before daylight when it broke down and started to take on water, so the boys jumped ship and swam to shore. The 13 year old made it but the croc grabbed the 16 year old in waist deep water just metres from safety.
His body has since been recovered in nearby mangroves. If there were any rifles on Saibai numerous crocs would already have been dealt with but brainless wildlife officers want to catch the offending croc and spend a fortune to remove it. To where? A New Guinea village for breakfast?
The wildlife warriors would have no idea which of the many dozens of crocs took the boy but locals would have some idea.
Labor does not give a hoot about Torres Strait Islanders or does the elusive, phantom Labor member Cynthia Lui from Yam Island who spends most of her time living it up in Cairns while her ‘constituents’ live in third world conditions where a loaf of bread costs $8.
Lui has been lost at sea since her ventriloquist former Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk disappeared.
Katters Australian Party prepared legislation five years ago which would manage Queensland’s excessive crocodile population and largely remove their threat to humans but LibLab voted it down.
When it comes to crocodile control the Liberal National Party is worse than Labor, and that is a mouthful.
