Federal ministers are calling out the Queensland Premier in a bid to continue the national plan to reunite Australia by Christmas. 

Minister for Agriculture David Littleproud says Annastacia Palaszczuk’s lack of commitment on the national plan is not only casting doubt on holiday plans, but is also continuing to cost the state’s tourism industry “billions”. 

Mr Littleproud’s comments come off the back of Queensland Deputy Premier Steven Miles who says that Queensland’s borders could remain closed for Christmas.
