Pollie pay outrage: secret salary rise for Victorian MPs
STATE politicians secretly pocketed a 5.3 per cent pay rise last year, worth more than $8400 to backbenchers and almost $19,000 to Premier Daniel Andrews.
The Sunday Herald Sun can exclusively reveal the whopping increase, which means the minimum salary for a politician is now $168,526.
Mr Andrews now receives $377,624. And for the first time, state ministers and Opposition Leader Matthew Guy are now paid more than $300,000 a year.
While pollies take home that extra money, Victoria’s lowest-paid workers were last year awarded a rise of 3.3 per cent — taking the minimum weekly wage to $694.90 before tax, compared to $3240 a week given to the lowest-paid state politician.

Andrews doesn't even deserve a $19 rise. None of them do. Not one!!

it just makes you sick....
Turncoat has given the Andrews Government around 3 billion dollars LAST YEAR ... for infrastructure projects...
so far.... he's hardly spent a cent...
why?
because there's an election coming up towards the end of this year so he's just sitting on BILLIONS of dollars to start splashing it all around at election time Pork Barrelling seats...
meanwhile... Victoria Rots...
