00:02The same state with new lines changing the face of Queensland politics.
00:07There's always winners and losers.
00:09The seat of Hill held by the Catter's Shane Knuth in the state's north is set to go.
00:14So two is threatened on Brisbane's south held by Labor's James Martin.
00:19New seats would be created in the fast growing areas of Springfield and Caboolture.
00:25The Labor Party have got two new seats, one in Springfield and one in Caboolture
00:27which is a Labor Party heartland.
00:29The LNP wanted to see Labor seats abolished and Catter seats abolished
00:34and that's precisely what's happened.
00:36Voters west of Brisbane want more representation.
00:39Springfield's growing pretty rapidly at the moment and it's a pretty big area
00:44so I think it deserves its own member.
00:46If any problems arouse I feel like they'd be able to go to someone and be like
00:51hey I have this problem, could you be able to help me out with it?
00:53Half of MPs face moderate or significant changes to their seats
00:58including Labor front-bencher Megan Scanlon in Gaven, the LNP's Ariana Doolin in Pummerstone
01:04and Labor back-bencher Melissa McMahon in Beanleigh.
01:08Simply because they hold more seats and where they hold them, the LNP has probably come out slightly ahead.
01:15Who do you think benefits the voters from threes?
01:17I don't think anyone can answer that.
01:20Shane Knuth's future is uncertain with his seat under threat.
01:24Rural and regional Queensland are doing it tough. We've got some big issues.
01:27If these changes proposed by the Independent Redistribution Commission go ahead,
01:32it'll mark the third time in Shane Knuth's political career that his seat has been abolished.
01:38I have to communicate with the constituents and if they still want me to keep going, I'll keep going.
01:44Do you feel for Shane Knuth?
01:46Is that a serious question?
01:47I'm sorry.
01:48I'm sorry.
01:49You
