i dont believe the people in brisbane should continue to request funding from the local community as they were pre warned aproxametely 5 years ago and the politicians can lie about this as much as they like but when the cost comes down to it let some of the money we the tax payers are sending over seas come back home to pay for the damage
after all we are just as poor a country as the reast and the politicians decided in price rise not the local community
so lets see them get our money back home
and start producing a few products here in australia not send it home to the politicians home land

I agree that all the Victims of Floods and Cyclones need help. Many have lost everything and their Insurance won't pay up but instead of wasting money or sending it overseas, the government should have already been putting all the money they have been getting off us into a fund to cope with Disasters. As for the overseas countries we constantly help, maybe they could pay a Disaster Levy on our behalf.
