Pay rises
« on: April 17, 2020, 01:58:32 pm »
  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.

Everyday I find one more name to add to the list of people who piss me off.

Fat Boy - thats nearly as good as the $25 (after tax) pay rise per fourt night for each pensioners In NZ - plus another $60 each per month heating allowance.
so good increase for couples= $100 month and $120 heating allowance towards your power bill
