Show Notes

The CTF was in Parliament pushing back against the government delaying the next election to give dozens of extra politicians a pension they don’t deserve.

Delaying the election by one week would give up to 80 additional MPs a taxpayer-funded pension. Those pensions would cost taxpayers up to $120 million.

CTF Federal Director Franco Terrazzano was in a parliamentary committee pushing politicians to oppose delaying the next election to give millions in pensions to extra politicians.
