COULD BE A VERY DIFFERENT DAY WHEN WE GET UP IN THE MORNING.
QUEENSLAND Premier Peter Beattie has reacted cautiously to Kim Beazley's announcement he will move to sc rap the Labor Party's no new uranium mines policy.
The Federal Labor Leader will formally announce the policy backflip in a speech to the Sydney Institute tonight.
Ahead of his speech, Mr Beazley said he will seek a change to Labor's platform at next year's national conference to replace the no new mines policy with an approach based on the world's strongest export safeguards.
Mr Beattie issued a brief statement tonight.
