        Bull! Barney has plenty of money! Victims of DV have NO where to go - but Barney was happy to collude in closing down support services!

        If Barnaby cannot afford rent on $408k how is one supposed to live on Centrelink or aged pension? It only gets worse!! My new novel: the octopus & Mal! The two deplorables keeping at it!

        If a Deputy Prime Minister of Australia can't organize his own living arrangements on the massive government salary he receives plus perks, he should resign. This is alarming news for the Australian public. #Auspol #nswpol

        That's ridiculous. The govt provides thousands of gutters for it's other citizens and they don't have $400 000 wages to make it comfortable.

        💬What?! He couldn’t put her up in a seedy motel? Beetrooter obviously didn’t want her to be seen with him in public, so he calls in a solid and stashes her away in a lovenest. This is how mistresses are treated, stashed away so your wife doesn’t find out. NOT PARTNERS!

        And yet women are criticised for staying in abusive relationships with their kids, dog & no job.

        And meanwhile the Turnbull govt cut funding for DV while racking up national debt via "homeland security" con jobs "keeping our citizens safe from terrorism". Get me a fuckin bucket.

        One check of http://www.rent.com  ( Armidale NSW) shows heaps of rental property available for Barnaby but of course rent has to be paid!

        Just goes to show how desperate the rental crisis is in Australia. The Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, #BarnabyJoyce was unable to acquire a place to rent..or maybe he couldn’t pass the honesty test? 😳

        Unbelievable. Do they honestly think we would believe that sob story. My heart bleeds for them. NOT. Between the two of them they r on nearly $600,000 a year and that doesn’t include the perks.

        Nowhere else to go? He makes $408k a year. Jesus Christ. These guys are corrupt. He can easily afford a grand a week to rent. You can get a palace in Armidale for that. Barnaby himself made a big deal of how cheap houses are in Armidale.
