There've all got theirs snouts in the trough, and for a very long time after their "service" in government.
Stupidly, the Peter Slipper $900 taxigate, cost us taxpayers 20, 30 40, times, in process than the cost of the original indescrection.
Really what hope does the working bloke have?? Get elected into parliment and set yourselve up for life.
Classic example is David Oldfield, didn't make a speech, and was on a "celebrity" survivor series when his wife handed in his resignation letter. 2 terms, achived nothing, taxpayers pay for him for life.
Yep, life means life in parlimentary pensions.
