Qld: Flegg refused permission to campaign at shopping centre
Queensland Liberal leader BRUCE FLEGG has been turned away from a shopping centre north
of Brisbane while campaigning for the state election.
A spokeswoman for the Peninsula Fair shopping centre near Redcliffe says Dr FLEGG was
told to leave the complex because he didn't ask for permission to campaign there.
But a spokesman for Dr FLEGG denies the incident ever happened.
He says the leader had just popped in for a coffee and quick chat .. and no one from
the centre came to see him.
Meanwhile Dr FLEGG has rejected claims the Coalition has entered the September 9 election
campaign without a health policy.
The Australian newspaper reported the Coalition invented a 250 million dollar health
policy the night before it was announced in Bundaberg.
But Dr FLEGG says the report is a fairy tale.
He's announced a 110 million dollar upgrade for the Southport Hospital on the Gold Coast today.
