Australian Daylight saving gone for another 6 months

The annual "Great Divide" between Queensland and the rest of the eastern states will be over at 3.00 am EDST tomorrow.

It continues to be a complete farce for six months every year with live television programming, airline schedules and trade and commerce in Queensland thrown into disarray.

A referendum for daylight saving across the state - or even a split time zone in southeast Queensland - would be overwhelmingly carried.
Anna Bligh's position on daylight saving is well-known but what is the LNP's position on the issue, especially on the Gold and Sunshine Coasts where the old Liberal conservatism and pro-Daylight Saving lobby remains very strong.
