‘Almost Monty Python’: Qld Premier orders review in 2032 Olympics infrastructure

Sky News contributor Joe Hildebrand says Queensland Premier Steven Miles’ decision to launch a review into infrastructure for Brisbane’s 2032 Olympics is “almost Monty Python” because “he himself approved” the project. Olympics boss John Coats says the Games are in jeopardy if the transport system isn’t upgraded. “Is it something of a left-wing cultural cringe against sport, where you don’t actually need this – it’s only bread and circuses for the masses, and we’ll announce it to win an election, but then after that we’ll quietly just cut the umbilical cord,” Mr Hildebrand told Sky News contributor Steve Price. “Steven Miles has now ordered a review into a $2.7 billion knockdown rebuild of the Gabba that he himself approved. “This is Yes Minister; this is almost Monty Python – I just don’t understand it.”
