"In Queensland you are born true. You start true, because you are a Queenslander. It’s as if growing up in Queensland confers on babies a purity. Queenslanders don’t have to look forward to a life of searching for truth. They have the truth. They live in a state of Queensland grace."
I am Generation Q. I am a Queenslander and proud of it. John Harms once wrote "Queensland leaders only become real leaders when they can demonstrate they have taken on the southerners – the tricky journalists, the academics, the complicators – and remained true. In the Queensland odyssey these are the tests. Indeed, once a leader can do that, only then are they fit and free to lead. They can only continue to lead as long as they keep Queenslanders enjoying the life they cherish." Go Queenslander!

I think 3 terms is sufficient and keeps the govt on their toes.
Anonymous,
It also creates an unfair advantage to the incumbent. Every modern democracy has moved towards fixed terms. Why not QLD?
I'd also support a cap on the number of terms one Premier can serve.
