Hardworking politicians??????????

Isn't that an oxymoron? Or is it just a moron?

Yesterday's NT News article: Politicians pay has risen by 75%, in the last decade.

Chief of Defence Force pay has more than doubled,

Troops pay has risen by on 50%

Diggers pay has averaged a 3% rise per year since 2005.

Politicians have averaged 7% per year, but

The Chief Defence has managed 18%!!!

Once again the ordinary soldiers, sailors & airmen are being paid very poorly, while pollies and big wigs do quite ok thank you.

Don't forget that pay rates (with associate Super) carry through to their retirement.
