    RIP Wayne Goss

    Sad to hear of the passing of Wayne Goss (The Goss Gloss). Ex premier of Qld from a brain tumour at 63 years of age today. He was a likeable and honourable bloke no matter what political persuasion you belong to. RIP and condolances to his family.
    Cheers......Brian

    He was a refreshing change in the 80's.

    He always came across as an honest man, not something you find often in a politician.

    He certainly did a lot to clean up Queensland after the corruption of the Joh era. Its a pity some of his reforms have since been undermined, for example the Crime and Misconduct Commission.
