Labour govt 2020-23

[jonu]

Treasury reports out this morning show that Government expenditure has increased by 73% between 2018 & 2024. Great management.

Good luck University of Otago. I know where they could save 600k per year straight away.

$600k.
I presume you mean Robbo's salary once he's on board?

Over the top.

The PM gets $470k

Ministers between $250 to $300 k.

Doesn't seem like the demotion some would wish on him

Maybe it's time l dusted off my CV!

Un-forking-believable. Hard to know what Otago Uni are thinking, hiring the muppet who has financially wrecked the country.

Doesn't that mean there might be some Socialist rich plicks sailing around ?


Google say:

Former officeholders are entitled to annuity and travel payments for the rest of their lives. Former prime ministers who held the office for no less than two years are entitled to a yearly rate of $10,900 for each complete year the person held office, with a maximum of $54,500 payable annually.

Does he score another bundle each year from Parliamentary Services for X years parked up in the Beehive as well or maybe not ?

Or just three months pay to clean out his desk ?

Perhaps it's also just free return air travel to clear the accumulated junk out of their offices

Bad news if they didn't need to fly in to do so, it appears - not even a wheelie bin allowance to cart
all the junk away if squatting locally

Hints of past Annual Pensions here:

https://www.newstalkzb.co.nz/news/na...ng-parliament/

The gold plated pension looks like it's history

but this still applies - "MPs also receive a generous pension, getting $2.50 for every $1 contributed."


Poor sod looks like he's done himself no favours by not wanting the Leader's job for whatever brief
benefit that may have scored

Probably now wishing he had have bulldozed his Unemployment Insurance Pie in the Sky scheme through a few years back

Alas but there's Otago who have appeared out of nowhere wanting to be sympathetic to the plight of a soon to become Unemployed Labour Finance Minister, even with their very own unique position

Will they receive a special Support subsidy to help out paying for expensive new talent enlisted on their payroll ? Who pays for all that & the bells & whistles on top ?

Not forgetting the vast amount of further Staff Training needed to get the new staff enrollee up to speed ..
after the comfortable Beehive existence of many of Chippy's Sausage Rolls, the occasional Roar in Chambers, the odd chinwaggle with RB Governor, flinging a few bills though, Fudging up the odd Budget and past that - the official Ministerial lifestyle of taxpayer funded luxury and much laxing out - it could take some time retraining to lose all of the former lifestyle's curious habits

Touche - and they'll do it again because that's what National Govts do best!

History would suggest Labour build houses and National sell them - dumb.

Recent history would suggest Labour build very few of houses promised after much loud squawking and then get very large increase in homeless on top - dumb

That was when labour was run by workers, not communists.
