        Maybe they should take advice from one of their own and "get a better job".

        We've been encouraged by successive Liberal PMs to "aspire" to greater things (meaning competing with each other on a win-lose basis to secure a greater share of $$). Their LNP MP supporters now reaping the whirlwind #auspol #GreedNotPublicService

        Did they have the same compassion for the motor industry workers and public servants made redundant by their crap policies❓Of course they can always rely on #newstart the generous $40 a day allowance. #auspol

        Good to know that the country's "best economic managers" personally have no contingency for being voted out. Cry me a river. They can see first hand what the Centelink office is like.

        The politicians' high income is premised on the assumption that they would be on equal or better pay in the private sector. What a load of turd bill that assumption is. Need to cut their pay, then we might get genuinely capable people with public interest at 💓

        Ah....just like many other employees in Australia. At least, these MPs will know that their employer will pay out their entitlements.
