Tomorrow, the Queensland LNP will announce where the Brisbane Olympic venues will be built. There has been a lot of political brouhaha over the location of the 2032 Olympics, which bamboozled the former Labor government and now is the LNP’s headache (although to be fair, the LNP did their fair share in making it a headache).

There is also the issue of funding and how that is all going to work.

David Crisafulli said he and the prime minister have worked some things over…cannolis. As you do:

Crisafulli: “I reckon we’ve spoken a lot about it, but we’ve negotiated well together. I think that’s fair. We’ve worked together well and that’s always my style. I’m on Team Queensland. Of course, there’s been some strong negotiations. Two people of Italian descent, you’d expect that. But there’s nothing that can’t be solved over a bit of common sense and a cannoli. Two cannolis, and I bought both of them.”
 
PM:: And I can confirm that the Premier has, on two occasions, given me cannolis and I haven’t declared them. So, I declare them now just in case I get into some trouble.
 
Crisafulli: They were good cannolis.
 
PM: We regard that as a cultural thing rather than anything else. And they’re fine cannolis, I’ve got to say.

Crisafulli is of the north Queensland Italians, where coffee and cannolis are basically life.
