There are 37 complaints against him regarding verbal altercations. The latest was with a local journalist who said she feared for her life. The incident prompted Premier Palaszczuk to disendorse him as the candidate for the seat. Williams said he would resign from the Labor Party and run as an independent. He claims to have a recording of the incident.<\/p>\n<p>Williams said he would not support Tim Nicholls for premier but the situation would have reduced Palaszczuk&#8217;s numbers on the floor of parliament to 41, matching the LNP&#8217;s 41. Williams would have moved to the cross-bench with two other independents (former Labor members), the two Katter&#8217;s Australia Party MPs and a One Nation MP (former LNP member). Speaker Peter Wellington did have a casting vote giving Labor the edge at 42 votes but chasing up the crossbench for support on legislation would have been difficult. Premier Palaszczuk decided to call the election instead.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tGH5xFiTi24?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Reader poll in Townsville<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It\u2019s going to be brutal, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Qldaah?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Qldaah<\/a>.
