The Queensland premier, Steven Miles, has accused his LNP opponent, David Crisafulli, of using “weasel words” for refusing to commit to defend the state’s ban on nuclear power in court.

Crisafulli has promised not to amend or repeal the state’s ban on nuclear power, which also requires a plebiscite on any federal proposal.
