QAHC, which received $2.5 million a year from Queensland taxpayers has signalled it's intention to run political campaigns. The group was also behind the obscene ''rip-n-roll'' safe sex ads which featured two gay men hugging, which was seen by children on bus shelters. With massive debt in Queensland, this is a sensible cut.
But, unfortunately, the group has signalled it will fight the move, no doubt with the support of Get-Uppers.
ACTION ALERT: What can you do?
- Email the Minister for Health, Lawrence Springborg to support the move: Health@ministerial.qld.gov.au
- Write a letter to The Courier Mail to congratulate the State Government: http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/opinion/editorials/letters-form or GPO Box 130 Brisbane QLD 4001
- Contact Shadow Minister for Health, Jo-Ann Miller and urge her to back the plan: Bundamba@parliament.qld.gov.au
What part of the advertisement was obscene? Would a heterosexual couple hugging one another be considered 'obscene'? Why would such a tender and inoccuous expression of affection, irrespective of the genders of the partners, ever be harmful in any way to children?
