Australia is home to the world’s richest public servants – with taxpayers funding salaries THREE TIMES larger than those in Britain and the U.S.

Australia’s top bureaucrats get huge salaries thanks to Remuneration Tribunal.

Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Philip Lowe earns a salary of $1,059,751.

The top overall earner was Queensland Treasury Corporation chief executive Philip Noble, who received a total package of $1.25 million, including a $738,627 base salary and almost $450,000 as a “short-term incentive” bonus.

 2.1 percent raise for those on the Age Pension, Disability Support Pension and Carer Pension in 2022, resulting in a $20.10 boost per fortnight for singles and $30.20 a fortnight for couples, bringing the total payments to $987.60 and $1,488.80 respectively.

The hourly wage rate that people received is higher than the married pension pension rate which the increase was fortnightly.

So  Albenese’s  increase was larger than the total  pension for a married pensioner and the single rate almost double.

Those elected after 2004 are paid an extra 15.4 per cent on their salary in superannuation contributions, compared to the current standard rate of 10.5 per cent.

The Remuneration Tribunal said its decision was based on the current economic conditions and pointed out that MPs had not been given a pay rise for three years.

“The tribunal notes the resilience of the Australian economy and the stronger than expected recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic,” the statement said.

This increase also applies to Judges and Public Servant Bureaucrats.

A papa mole, a mama mole, and a baby mole,
all live together in a little mole hole.

One day, papa mole sticks his head
out of the hole, sniffs the air and said,
‘ Yummy! I smell maple syrup!’

The mama mole sticks her head out of the hole,
sniffs the air and said, ‘Oh, Yummy! I smell honey!’

Now baby mole is trying to stick his head
out of the hole to sniff the air, but can’t
because the bigger moles are in the way.

This makes him whine, ‘Geez, all I can smell is….
MOL ASSES !
