King Charles has sent a message to the people of Queensland, sharing his and his wife Queen Camilla’s concern and admiration following recent weather events.
As well as Tropical Cyclone Kirrily crossing over north Queensland, including the Burdekin, people across Queensland have faced Tropical Cyclone Jasper, southeast Queensland storms on Christmas night and Boxing Day and further rain in the state’s south.
Governor-General David Hurley shared the message from the King on Monday as he and his wife Linda Hurley visited Tamborine Mountain, the Gold Coast, Samford, Murrumba, and Caboolture earlier in the week.
“My wife and I have been deeply concerned by the devastating impacts of recent weather events across Queensland,” the King shared in his message.
“The destructive fires of late last year, and the more recent tropical cyclones which have brought torrential rain and widespread flooding have, I know, brought unbearable pressures on the lives of those in many communities.
“We are full of admiration for those brave rescue crews and all the others who help protect life and defend property in difficult and often very dangerous circumstances.
“That spirit of mateship and helping those in need reflects the very best of Australian characteristics and makes us so proud of the resilience and determination of the Australian people.
“Our constant thoughts and sympathy are with all Queenslanders who are being continually impacted by these events.”
