The LNP love to tell us all how they’re the great economic managers, and the media take them at their word and repeats this crap.
This post will keep a record of the money these guys have wasted that could have gone to far worthier causes.
- $500m to renovate the existing war memorial
- $200m for pre-election ads telling us how good they are
- $100m for a museum. In France!
- $66m for a Unions Royal Commission (that found nothing)
- $200 Billion for obsolete weapons
- $3.8 Billion to boost weapons sales
- $50m for a Captain Cook statue
- $6.7m to re-enact the circumnavigation of Australia (which never actually happened)
- $126m for a postal survey for SSM
- $74m to pay Clive’s debts to his mining workers
- $1.2m to pay Cash’s legal bills
- $423m paid to Paladin to provide services to 423 refugees for 17 months (that’s almost $59,000 per person/per month)
Lots more to come
