Queensland is currently experiencing a surge in respiratory sickness virus cases, surpassing influenza numbers, with over 1,000 confirmed cases in the Darling Downs region and over 1,200 across the state every week. Meanwhile, the Queensland Police Service (QPS) is successfully preventing the expansion of outlaw motorcycle gangs, with effective intelligence processes and swift action against emerging members. Time is running out for Southwest Queenslanders to support the Cutters' Australian Party Castle law bill, as the parliamentary petition deadline is approaching. A local charity, Graham House Community Center, is in desperate need of volunteer drivers to support their medical and social transport service, as the shortage is putting extra pressure on the service and potentially limiting their ability to help those in need. Two much-loved community members, Peter Taylor and Rosie Schmidt, will be farewelled today in Roma and Kingaroy, respectively. Lastly, two prominent commercial properties in Toowoomba, the Fantastic Furniture Building and a Ruthven Street office building, have been listed for auction in the coming month.
