Steven Miles laughs off youth crime question once again

Queensland Premier Steven Miles was again laughing off questions about youth crime from the opposition in the first session of parliament for the year. The premier was asked about the transparency of court proceedings involving juvenile offenders. This comes as Steven Miles left the issue of youth crime out of his speech at the Brisbane Media Club last week and chose to concentrate on the victims of natural disasters. Mr Miles finally acknowledged Queenslanders living in fear after the alleged murder of grandmother Vyleen White in an Ipswich shopping centre car park. He says the government’s response to youth crime in the state will keep a “laser focus” on keeping the community safe.
