The latest news around Annastacia Palaszczuk is largely centered on the release and promotion of her memoir Annastacia Palaszczuk: The Politics of Being Me, including publication details and public event announcements.[1][2]
Memoir release (what’s new)
- A widely circulated update states the memoir will be released on 28 April 2026 via HarperCollins.[8]
- The book description frames it as a story of resilience and staying true to yourself, and highlights milestone moments from her premiership journey (including becoming the first woman to win the Queensland premiership from opposition, and later securing three consecutive terms).[2][5]
Public events / appearances
- Brisbane Powerhouse lists an in-person event for 27 April 2026 titled Annastacia Palaszczuk: The Politics of Being Me, described as a conversation with Frances Whiting.[1]
- Gold Coast Libraries similarly promotes a “Meet an Author” event where she discusses the memoir, again emphasizing the themes of life in public office, leadership challenges, and resilience under scrutiny.[5]
Recent media coverage signal
- One news-style write-up (not necessarily a mainstream outlet) says the memoir is “long-awaited” and positions it as intended to inspire young women to pursue political careers.[3]
If you tell me whether you want (a) only major outlets (ABC, SBS, major newspapers), (b) event listings only, or (c) a mix, I can narrow this to the most relevant “latest” items.
