The global economic environment has changed what this project costs. The petition asks the government to acknowledge that and act on it before contracts lock in figures that no longer reflect reality.

Sign the petition for an independent budget review

We are calling on the Crisafulli Government to commission a fully independent, publicly released review of the Victoria Park stadium budget. The review must include the full precinct cost estimated at current construction prices, and a consolidated security budget. The original figures were set before the global cost crisis hit. Queenslanders should not be committed to a project priced in a world that no longer exists.

Every signature puts pressure on the government to act before it is too late to act responsibly.

Write to your local member

A short, polite message from a constituent carries weight, particularly in marginal electorates. You don't need to be an expert in stadium finance. You just need to make clear that you expect your representative to demand honest numbers before public money is committed in a difficult economic environment.

This is not a partisan argument. Share it that way.

The case for a budget review is a pragmatic response to changed global conditions. It is the kind of position that makes sense to people across the political spectrum, anyone who has watched their own costs rise and wondered whether governments are being straight with them about theirs. If you know someone who'd find this compelling, whether they're a farmer watching input costs, a tradie who knows what materials cost now compared to three years ago, or a family trying to make the budget stretch, send them this page.
