24 April 2018: KAP Leader and Federal Member for Kennedy Bob Katter has issued a brutal warning to the State Ministers that they will not be welcome in North Queensland unless they address the crocodile explosion which continues to see the beasts creep into populated waterways.
The warning comes as a three metre crocodile was filmed chowing down on a turtle within yards of the shoreline at Bingil Bay where two young children were playing.
Mr Katter said, "We are getting close to boycotting any Ministers from the State Government from coming into North Qld.
"Not going to call for it until the public support is there, but from now on, we don’t want any Minister to set foot in North Qld.
"This complete boycott means we are also getting to a stage now where we start looking at a picket line out the front of the ALP and LNP offices in North Qld.
“We have been screaming and pleading with them to take this seriously. They keep ignoring us so we say, okay, well you're not welcome here then. "
