And yet Red calls me a dickhead for posting the truth.

Once again I am being shot as the messenger.

Greens senator Sarah Hanson-Young left a $20,000 debt to taxpayers unpaid for almost a year, even ignoring an official payment request made on the very day she was in parliament trying to block budget savings measures.
GREENS Senator Sarah Hanson-Young has defended spending more than $3500 in taxpayer funds on a whale watching trip for her and her daughter, saying she was just doing her job.

The South Australian Senator has admitted to charging the September trip to the Great Australian Bight — where she guzzled oysters, took selfies, and spotted dozens of whales — to the public.

After the overnight trip Ms Hanson-Young posted more than 20 pictures to Facebook showing mother and daughter enjoying themselves on the pristine coastline.

Couldn't agree more. As far as I am concerned, they should all be limited to using public transport and economy airfares and staying at the YMCA/YWCA.

Why? I'm curious. Is it because she is assertive?

for it would appear NO REASON..


AN accidental Senator elected with just 19 votes claimed $19,000 to fly his family around the country last quarter courtesy of taxpayers — more than any other Federal politician.

Senator Fraser Anning, who split from One Nation and was kicked out of Katter’s Australian party, had a family travel bill last quarter that was double that of Opposition leader Bill Shorten and higher then senior Ministers based in WA like Finance Minister Mathias Cormann.

Under fire over ‘out of step’ speech

While the Brisbane-based Senator has said he represents regional and rural Queenslanders, half of his own flight costs were for trips to Sydney, Melbourne or Perth.

These trips included a two-day visit to Sydney and Melbourne in July, costing $3327, during which time he spoke at a rally for white South African farmers attended by US provocateur Lauren Southern.

The costs were revealed in the latest independent Parliamentary Expenses Authority report, covering from July to September.

Senator Anning also spent $800 on publications, including two copies of the Community Manifesto, several books on the US Constitution and the Koran.

While he claimed $19,038 on travel costs in that period, Mr Shorten’s bill was about $10,000 and Senator Cormann’s hit $17,000. Most MPs claim between nothing and $5000 a quarter for the perk.

A spokesman for the Senator did not say why so much family travel was required, but that the bill included claims from previous quarters as well.

But previous reports show Senator Anning had already claimed more than $7000 in family travel throughout the year.

He has also claimed more on family travel in 2018 than any other Federal MP.

“The family reunion travel that has been incurred falls within Parliamentary entitlement requirements,” Senator Anning’s spokesman said.

The Queensland Senator spent $31,000 on domestic flights in the past quarter, but $15,600 of those were to Sydney, Melbourne or Perth.

His spokesman said he preferred to drive around regional areas instead of “jetsetting across Queensland like the Prime Minister”.

“It is important to stop at as many regional centres as possible, speaking to the people in the hard hats and cowboy boots,” he said.

“Senator Anning’s interstate travel falls within Parliamentary entitlement requirements and is for the benefit of his Queensland constituents.”

The spokesman said the book purchases were within entitlements.

“Senator Anning is a studious individual who likes to expand his understanding of a range of topics, including ones that he may not necessarily agree with,” he said.

he sure like rallies...

me thinks hes making the most of his 19 votes...

Anning does deserve the severest criticism for this and he will be booted out come election time when the public passes judgement!
