I think we (pensioners) just received a pay rise. $2.90 a fortnight for a couple, can't wait for the lock down to finish so we can get out and spend it. It was good to see that the politicians have delayed their increases for 6 months to show use what good people they are. BUT they didn't tell us what these increases are.
On last years rates a minister on $365,000 a year was eligible for over $7000 a year which increase, are they worth it? NO
A pensioner couple earn around $40,000 a year But that's for 2 of us that's around $75 a year,are we worth it? the polies would probably say NO.
