I'm a highly qualified welding specialist, and have been out of work for over a year. We need big projects to supply Queenslanders with jobs.

THIS SIGNATURE IS NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH YOU MR ROCHE. First off Mr Roche I will say that I believe you along with George Christensen and PM Tony Abbott need to stop insulting my intelligence and that of many others with like minded views. It is obvious to all that Carmichael Mine will add nothing to the Australian economy but will add further to the environmental problems and bring further hardship to workers forced to work there as FIFO workers and the social issues that is entailed. But for sure overseas workers will be brought in. This mine will add nothing to the Australian economy but will take from it as the public purse is pilfered once again to give to companies that are not even Australian and for sure as we have seen with other politicians and those in positions such as yours will go towards providing for your future after your present job along with those associated with you. You say your are concerned for jobs. Well if you and your mates are so concerned about jobs why are you not at Blackwater and Middlemount and all the other mines that are putting off workers. Standing beside the mine workers and fighting for their permanent job security. You and your mates have been conspicuous by your absence and silence. OK this signature may have you stating you have had a trillion or whatever signatures but start telling the truth and understanding that all the money and power you have on this earth will mean nothing when you get to the gate of St Peter and find millions in front of you that you have caused to face hardships and finally when you get to the top of the line......................... Mr Roche you will not slander me and stop me from speaking out. My father and grandfathers fought for the freedom of Australia and what they suffered then and on their return has made me determined to maintain this freedom for generations to come. I worked for a well run company whose Chairman and Directors were English Lords. From the top down they showe

Why not re-open or expand some existing Bowen Basin mines right now, tommorrow to produce the coal that India reckons they need, and the jobs that have previously been ripped out of the region.. Carmichael/GVK/ChinaFirst are years away from production even if construction started tommorrow Further, every mug except the QRC, Tony Abbott and George Christensen know the economics don't stack up.

We all should protect our environment. But what the activists are doing will destroy jobs and our national income. Rich States protect the environment best.

The ease at which one of the most important coal developments in Queensland's history can be back-pedalled at the pure expense of the taxpayer is mind blowing.
