Cam_Wheatley Tim looks like he praying to the Morrison god to save him

Take away all their privileges, make them payback everything or put them in irons and throw away the key. They have broken any trust, it will end badly for all involved I am sure. Instant karma’s gonna get ya!

Actually they spent public money on this rort. The govt doesn't spend taxes. Tax is money simply withdrawn from circulation. That money isn't spent, it's just destroyed. It's a fact.

Qld_Mythbuster The corruption runs deep in this Administration, Australia needs an Election NOW.

Goes from SHAME SHAM to now bordering on CRIMINAL!

Labor is WA did something similar. All parties are the same.

Can they stop using the tax payers money as their own private bank account?

TimWattsMP Dutton spends 500 grand in a year on grog, McKenzie spends 20 grand on a charter flight to a sporting contest, Joyce used to to shah his mistress, the list goes on and on and on

TimWattsMP She with shameless government promotion using tax payer funded election ads, taxpayer funded bus tours. Liberals see taxpayers money as a born to rule entitlement

I think it’s called corruption.......?

And the crooks keep on rolling on.

ALL pay-for-play-or-access should be eliminated from Australia's governance. Already, taxpayers are shelling out for propaganda campaigns of those seeking power, on votes cast. Our democracy & governance should not be traded for money or favours by those entrusted with it.

outrageous abuse of power They r playing grubby politic Utterly shameless

ErykBagshaw There should be more people kicking up a stink about this. Nothing is safe when Labor is in government. They’ll steal anything that’s not nailed down. Envy and legalised theft are virtues in Laborland.

Every political disaster begins with good intentions, but taxpayers cover the costs | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Peta Credlin says that every political disaster begins with ‘the best of intentions’, but ‘everything has a downside, even if it's only the cost’.\n\nOne example, Ms Credlin says, is former prime minister Kevin Rudd’s renewable energy target of 28 per cent of the power supply, resulting in ‘prices going through the roof’ and electricity blackouts.\n\nMs Credlin says ‘in politics as in life, if looks too good to be true, it probably is’, saying that politicians often promote the positives of their proposals, rather than the negatives. As opposed to where they are now , which is in the toilet I noticed that coal generated power let down the grid in Victoria the other week, resulting in power black outs. Remember that time when Credlin lied for 6 months to have one of the shortest serving PMs in history?
