FFS. Vote these snowflake parasites out at the next election. Never has so much taxpayer’s money been wasted on such incompetent and ineffective government.

He’ll burn

Well someone voted for him 🙄

Entitled privilege lefties do as we not do as we do

The highest paid leader and the highest paid lunatic.

Good performance should be rewarded. Good on him.

Our of touch with community, when pensioners leave on merely $17-18k a year. This guy gets a pay rise more than most people earning. What a disgrace. ScottMorrisonMP you let the independent tribunal to do this, inflate all your cronies wages. You are responsible too AlboMP

His worth every cent Only he believes that All he needs a moustache to be Hilter

This is what happens when one who makes excuses and overlooks their immoral descisions... it’s easy to justify more inappropriate and flagrant decisions, with little concern for the impact. ‘The emperor has no clothes’

Lefties for the people as long as they can extort miney

PTampouras How, just how

Australian politics needs reform. The right to make decisions that effect all Australian’s shouldn’t fall exclusively to a room full of people. Simply getting to choose who gets to be an oligarch is not enough to call the system democracy.

Four legs good, two legs better! All Animals Are Equal. But Some Animals Are More Equal Than Others.

This is good for kids to see because you can ruin the states power, confuse on gender, ruin the fire service and still get a wage rise.

It’s he the one stymying the pay rises of Firefighters and Ambos etc etc

Leading by example. It's a signal to all employers to give their staff a 3.5% pay rise as he will do for all public servants. He is declaring that pay rises of only 2% to public servants are dead, cremated and buried and that he is stimulating the economy as encouraged by the RBA

Typical politician more money from the hard working tax payers pocket

That's nice. Instead of a train to the Melbourne show this year we get to travel 300kms by bus. Mmmmmm money spent not so wisely.

Could All Victorians stop paying state Taxes until these obscene pay rises are made null and void.Union's take action.

Time to go baby ... Your just not worth it

And the world’s highest paid muppet.

The swamp gets bigger and deeper!!

This is shocking given the low or no growth in wages

Gato188

Why do we pay any politician this kind of money, no matter what party or size of electorate, they are not worth the investment.

Whilst the majority of people do it tough FARKEN joke!

He is not worth that and he is running the state into the ground no laws, no morals and no respect for the people

What a joke.

The age old argument is to pay these pollies a bucket load to attract and retain the best people to manage us. I’m just waiting for that to happen. Until then, that should get no more than CPI.

Such a communist

Why is sky concerned the opposition also got a pay rise the lib nsw leader will get even more than him when her rise arrives will await sky report

And worse Premier

$46k pay rise! For being the worst premier in Australia and ruining Melbourne ! auspol

Can the workers get the same independent panel for pay rises 2 pay rises in one year is pretty good going..

pigs at the trough

Gee haven’t any of these overpaid people got any conscience or morals or are they just plain pigs

Alan Joyce won’t be swapping jobs

Can this be appealed/reversed?

Well at least this Premier gets the job done. In NSW our Liberal Government just sells our assets, allows the power bills go up and gloats about building roads and train lines while slapping huge tolls on it.

How much are Liberals, Nationals and Greens getting from the pay rise... do tell.

What a waste of money. Why does this ALWAYS happen on a second term labour government? Out of control.

Greatest fraudster now gets the biggest pay rise. Surely this power hungry, importance chasing individual must be stopped before more outrageous things are approved. Humiliating approach to the people who really need support!

Meanwhile the Coalition harbour a suspected Chinese Communist party operative and their neglect inaction and failures on energy policy has seen MORE MASSIVE ELECTRICITY PRICE INCREASES OF$400 EXTRA THIS YEAR ALONE..and very likely major rolling blackouts this summer

Money money money🎼🎶🎵🎷😂

Bet he’s proud of the achievements he’s made for himself!
