This is a very valuable resource to visit especially when a politician next time talks about efficiency and the need for “fiscal responsibility” and “austerity”.

Some pollies here have questions to answer, especially among the Greens.

A valuable resource that provides much needed context surrounding pollies’ relative spending.

#auspol #TheyWork4Us
New gadgets to compare electorates side by side or in clusters. This helps understand, for example, when expenses are high for a reason such as the MP repping a huge rural area (or not). Will be adding to this, but you can dig in here:

Being Oppo Leader is expensive.

Are taxpayers getting full value from #WellDoneAngus?

There should be an algorithm to rank and score politicians by a value/effectiveness/productivity metric.

The sooner we realize that our elected representatives have never acted on the public's behalf.
The sooner we can vote in those that will.

If you voted for Trump in 2024 and finally realize that he lied to get your vote and things aren't going well, it's okay to change your mind.

Write your representative in Congress and tell them how you want them to vote. Tell them how things are going. Tell them to hold Trump accountable.

Who would employ someone who rocks up to work only half the time usually without a valid excuse while they swan around luxury foreign resorts, takes gifts from clients, & demands an annual salary of at least a quarter of a million dollars?
