Single mum Lucille Riordan is the human face of the LNP’s indiscriminate
public sector job cuts.
After five years working for the people of Queensland, she was told on a
Thursday that she would have no job after Friday. Since then she’s been
desperately seeking any job to pay her mortgage and keep a roof over her young
family.
Sadly she's not alone as 20,000 other Queensland public sector workers also
face the jobless queue in coming months.
But what makes it even harder for Lucille is that she says Campbell Newman
told her personally before the election that public sector jobs like hers were
safe.
