An $11,000 pay rise for disgraced MP Scott Driscoll to continue to
do nothing is another insult to the people of Redcliffe, says Member for
Bundamba Jo-Ann Miller.
“It is a travesty that Scott Driscoll is continuing to draw a
salary at all given his abject failure to represent his electorate,”
said Mrs Miller.
“Redcliffe residents will rightly be angry and dumbfounded to learn
that their do-nothing MP will be entitled to continue to fill his
pockets at their expense."
“If he had any honour he would resign rather than collect on the
increased salary awarded to MPs by the independent remuneration tribunal
this week. But his actions so far have shown he has no shame."
“Three fleeting appearances in Parliament since March are all the
people of Redcliffe have been rewarded with since electing a shabby LNP
candidate."
“Voters thought they were electing an LNP star. He was Premier Campbell Newman’s personal choice for Redcliffe."
“But what they got was an LNP dud who has taken the people for fools."
“Mr Driscoll continues to make a mockery of our democracy and to short-change the people he was elected to represent."
“It should be very clear, even to him, that the people deserve
better and that they want him to clear-off so they can elect someone who
will work hard on their behalf,” said Mrs Miller.
