I work for the Govt and work with a lot of highly paid (underworked) PS ass lickers who are only interested in accumulating enough wealth to retire on and woe betold someone who may want to rock the boat by coming up with an original idea that may save tax payers money.

Take it from me they've got no ones interest but their own at heart and anything they may do for the electorate is to ensure they get re-elected and they'll bend and twist their own rules to suit.

I have no respect what so ever for politicians and the ones who I have had end up losing respect for the institution they'd joined with the illusion they'd make a difference but all to often remove themselves from the public eye very quickly when they realise they won't.

No unfortunately it's all to easy when everyone else has to accept CPI increases that pollies can can up with ways of doubling their pay packets and blinding us with the illusion that this will be acheived by curtailing expenditure elsewhere.

Stuff em I say
