Prime Minister Scott Morrison says people who earn $180,000 aren’t ‘rich’
Scott Morrison has defended tax cuts for high income earners, declaring FIFO miners in Queensland earning $180,000 are not rich and should not be regarded as in the same class as “merchant bankers” in Sydney.
The Prime Minister, who earns over $500,000-a-year was asked to nominate “what’s rich?” during a press conference in Queensland today after he was asked to comment on tax cuts for high income earners that come into force in 2024.
