Bro, if you are talking about Queensland, it's a land of light and sunshine compared to the days of Joh Bjelke-Petersen

Corruption isn't generally regarded as a big issue (except for political 'donations' owning and enforcing a 2 party system lol), but if you're from Europe, each state is pretty different, and even areas within cities, so you want to have your eyes wide open.
