QLD:Newman unanimously endorsed as leader

CAMPBELL NEWMAN says he's ready to learn about parliament and get cracking on the election
trail .. after being officially made Queensland's opposition leader.

The former Brisbane lord mayor was endorsed as the Liberal National Party election
team leader at a party room meeting today.

Mr NEWMAN says he'll attend parliament this week .. working as a "volunteer" in the
opposition's office and watching proceedings from the public gallery.

He will also formulate Question Time questions with parliamentary leader JEFF SEENEY.

Mr NEWMAN says he won't unveil his new shadow cabinet team until after this week's
sitting finishes on Thursday.
