State opposition leader John Pesutto has fired up during question time in parliament today, accusing the Allan government of running a protection racket.

On his second day back in parliament since being accused of inappropriate behaviour towards another staff member, former Labor MP Darren Cheeseman used question time to ask about the government’s infrastructure spending in his electorate.

“Great to see him fired up with a bit of passion,” Jacqui Felgate said.
