24.01.2022 Go to the article and see how your pay stacks up against your MPs. (My local MPs wage is +984% more than my lowly wage.) - AWN See how your pay stacks up agai...nst your MPs DECEMBER 8, 20165:45PM For a real kick in the guts, compare your pay to Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbulls, and dont forget his extra millions. MALCOLM Turnbull is paid $517,504 a year for the honour of serving the Australian people as Prime Minister. On average, his constituents earn $74,724. The standard base salary for an Australian politician isnt quite as high as the PMs, but its more than two and a half times what the average Australian fulltime worker pockets. Plus, more than two thirds of parliamentarians are paid above the starting wage of $199,040. Because politicians pay isnt exactly a favoured topic for our political representatives, it doesnt tend to get a lot of airtime. But its certainly one that tax payers have an interest in. So with this handy tool, you can find out exactly what your local member of parliament, and any other politicians for that matter, is earning. The calculator was created using data from the remuneration tribunal detailing base and additional salary for parliamentary office holders this year by job search site Adzuna. The employment site usually offers a tool allowing users to get an idea of their current worth in the Australian jobs market, but this time theyre letting workers measure their apparent worth against the pollies who work for them. Earlier this year Treasurer Scott Morrison was blasted by radio host Ray Hadley who accused politicians of being bludgers and leaders, and said he felt vindicated after government frontbenchers left parliament early the following week missing a crucial vote. Our parliamentarians last week retired from their Canberra duties for the year. Theyll return after an almost 10-week break. And its not just salaries that cause outrage, but the extras politicians are entitled to. Australias federal and state governments have recently been plagued with expense scandals like the choppergate saga that ended former speaker Bronwyn Bishops career. Before breaking up for the year, Parliament didnt have time to discuss a Bill to scrap the Life Gold Pass travel entitlements, which grants former MPs and their spouses free business class flights for life. Bronwyn Bishops 28-year parliamentary career was brought down by an expense scandal. Picture: Kym SmithSource:News Corp Australia Remuneration panel data used in the calculator reveals cabinet ministers are paid a base salary of $343,344, which is 33 per cent higher than their counterparts in the shadow minister who bring in $248,800 per year, according to the research. Newly elected senators Derryn Hinch and Pauline Hanson each command a base salary of $199.040. Senator Richard di Natale earns 45.5 per cent more than both Mr Hinch and Ms Hanson at $283,632. Australian politicians often have multiple job titles and earn an additional salary for taking on new roles. Liberal MP David Coleman earns a base salary of $199,040 for his work as member for Banks in southwest Sydney. He earns an additional $21,894 for chairing a parliamentary committee. Adzuna CEO Raife Watson said there was a lesson there for regular Australian workers. A lesson we can learn from our politicians is make sure you are paid for any extra work you are given that is not explicitly in your job description, he said. http://www.news.com.au//n/b932019db26bfacb70ba0f84b11754aa

20.01.2022 Politicians should come with a trigger warning Annabel Crabb DECEMBER 10 2016... Bernardi fumes over carbon trading scheme Political correctness is its now universally accepted in this country, or by anyone with a brain at least out of control. Its getting so you cant say anything to anyone, in case you "trigger" them or offend them. Even if what youre saying is true! Thats the worst part. Its almost like there are some words and concepts that just drive some people into a blind fit of rage or offence, and render them completely incapable of engaging in a calm and rational discussion. Its kind of sad, because the conversations that are most richly strewn with potential points of offence are actually usually the most important ones to have. But theyre also by definition the most likely to get somebody or others undies in a bunch, so as soon as theyre raised, even when its in a well-meaning way SLAM! Suddenly you cant hear yourself for the shrieking. What happened to freedom of speech in this country? In shutting down genuine inquiry and debate on this matter, or that one, just because its premise (or even, sometimes, merely a sliver of its premise) offends someone, dont we risk missing out, as a population, on the sorts of answers we might more reliably have obtained were we allowed freely to have the conversation? Look at Environment and Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg, for example. On Monday, he released the terms of reference for the governments long-scheduled review of climate policy. This, of course, is a landmine-infested area of government policy and a comparably perilous subject on which to express an incautious opinion than the usual explosive PC territory of Islam, Aboriginal parenting, immigration policy, Peppa Pig and so on. Consequently, Frydenberg larded his press release with every reassurance and political shock-absorber available; assurances that the current direct action policies are working beautifully, a clip around the ears for Labors carbon tax on the way through. So far, so good. But the minister should have issued a trigger warning before he went on the ABC. Tragically, under questioning, he uttered the following sentence: "We know that theres been a large number of bodies that have recommended an emissions intensity scheme, which is effectively a baseline and credit scheme. Well look at that." Oh dear. The poor man might as well have worn a sombrero to a campus party. Within hours, the airwaves were full of wounded colleagues stricken to the core by the possibility that a government review would do anything quite so foolish nay! malevolent! as to actually review something. Cory Bernardi described the whole idea as "one of the dumbest things" hed heard. "Im sure the last thing ministers want to do is to reopen questions that were settled for our side back in 2009," added former PM Tony Abbott. Now: Have there been a large number of bodies that have recommended an emissions intensity scheme? Yep. Is that essentially a baseline and credit scheme? Yep. Will we look at that? Not on your nelly, because after less than a day of hollering, the Prime Minister himself climbed into his bullet-proof vehicle and drove out on to the battle field, determinedly flattening any suggestion the review would look at an "emissions intensity scheme" and reversing over it a few times for good measure, like a chook farmer eliminating a snake. Frydenbergs crime? Mentioning an "emissions intensity scheme" at all, which as everyone knows is pretty much the same as an emissions trading scheme, which as everyone knows is pretty much the same as a carbon tax, which as everyone knows is pretty much the same as just openly shooting pensioners for no reason. Now, dont get me wrong. Im as sickened by carbon pricing as the next reasonable Australian. But if an "emissions intensity scheme" really is the dumbest idea Cory Bernardi has ever heard of, then why should he be worried about it being part of a review? Wouldnt the review be likely to side with sanity and kick it to the kerb? While the idea of anything even resembling an emissions trading scheme is understandably very triggering for Senator Bernardi and some of his colleagues and let no one make light of the genuine pain this subject has caused the Coalition in the past decade is it really healthy for our democracy to avoid discussion of it for that reason? By stifling debate on this subject, isnt the government just creating a febrile and disenfranchised minority whose admittedly distasteful views cannot be ventilated? This is the problem with political correctness. By forbidding certain concepts even to enter the combat arena of ideas, you lose the capacity to demonstrate comprehensively, through free and fair battle, which are the stupid ones. If only, among the mob which descended on Josh Frydenberg last week, there were some true freedom fighters with the courage to back their own views, out in the open.

15.01.2022 Tonight on SBS at 8:30pm... First Contact review: David Oldfields verdict on Stone Age culture Hes the beating heart of the series but no amount of contact... can shift his understanding an inch. Karl Quinn NOVEMBER 18 2016 Thank God for David Oldfield. He is dogmatic, inflexible, arrogant and abrasive, but hes the beating heart of First Contact (SBS, November 29 to December 21 at 8.30pm), a show that would otherwise have only bleeding hearts at its disposal. The co-founder of One Nation arguably represents the views of an awful lot of white Australians in the second season of this constructed reality show from Blackfella Films (Redfern Now, First Australians, DNA Nation). Hosted by Ray Martin, First Contact is the journey of six European Australians who are challenged about their perceptions of Indigenous Australians. Before starting out on their 28-day immersion in Aboriginal Australia, each of the six "well-known" (SBS doesnt do celebrity) participants records an interview in which they lay out their preconceptions of the Aboriginal people and culture they have had little or no direct experience of. As you might expect, Oldfield pulls no punches. "Its not actually good for Aborigines to remain Aborigines. They should be Australians." Of Indigenous culture, he says: "You just naturally let it die out. I mean frankly, it should have died out, like the Stone Age died out." His fellow travellers have preconceptions too. Actor Nicki Wendt says "I floss and brush my teeth twice a day, without fail," expecting the people she meets to be less fastidious in matters of personal hygiene. And shes right in a house with 25 inhabitants, theres barely elbow room to floss but she is one of the most open to change. Natalie Imbruglia admits to an idealised view of Indigenous culture formed in her school days and untrammelled by the messy business of ever actually meeting an Aborigine. Its all campfires and corroborees and living in harmony with nature. Some of what she sees shatters that illusion, some of it helps rebuild it in more robust form. Theres hope and despair aplenty here. Former Miss Universe Australia Renae Ayris comes from a place of fear, having been harassed by drunken blackfellas in Perth. She ends with her concerns not allayed entirely, but with a knowledge of the circumstances that may contribute to such behaviour. Ian "Dicko" Dickson wrestles with the tension between his lefty leanings and his get-off-your-arse-and-fix-it response to problems. Comedian Tom Ballard is steadfastly articulate and compassionate but finds himself opening to the idea of personal responsibility in a way that takes him by surprise. In each of these, there is a shifting in some cases slight, in others substantial. They visit the state facilities to which kids were taken after being abducted from their families 50 years ago, where they were trained for service and chained for punishment. For some it is the first they have heard of the Stolen Generations, and they are moved. They visit a model prison in WA where the inmates are given training and structure and a shot at breaking the cycle of recidivism (80 per cent of Indigenous prisoners, we are told, will re-offend). But they are conflicted over the fact life inside looks so much better than life outside. David Oldfield, though, is a rock. He budges not an inch. He clings to the mantra of responsibility and self-reliance, which has some appeal wherever you sit politically. But he starts from a position in which Aboriginality is a problem best solved by being erased and he ends up there. The most shocking scene for my money comes when he quibbles over details with two members of the Stolen Generation, men who speak of being taken from their families as children. "But you dont know why you were taken, do you," he badgers them. He may be right, but his lack of compassion is utterly breathtaking. Of course, Oldfield sees himself as a rationalist, not a racist. He takes the Andrew Bolt line of logic that refusing to acknowledge difference puts him above the petty distinctions of race. That would be fine if everyone started on an equal footing and had equal opportunities from there on, but thats not the way the world works. Not yet, anyway. For now, denying race as a factor in an individuals outcome is a wilful act of ignorance. Thank God for David Oldfield, for showing us so clearly what that looks like. http://www.canberratimes.com.au//first-contact-review-than

06.01.2022 EXCLUSIVE If they dont like it they should leave: tensions escalate between ABC management and staff Matthew Knott ... DECEMBER 5 2016 Some of the ABCs most prominent presenters have urged their colleagues not to resist change as tensions intensify between staff and management over the direction of the ABC under managing director Michelle Guthrie. ABC staff have in recent weeks been openly critical of programming changes for 2017, including an overhaul of TV science program Catalyst and the decommissioning of almost all music programs on Radio National. The changes follow earlier decisions to abolish the ABC Fact Check unit and online opinion and analysis site The Drum. Lateline presenter Emma Alberici told Fairfax Media: "If we stand still we are only appealing to older demographics who havent embraced digital media. Younger people will move on. "When things change its unsettling but to not change would be dangerous for an organisation like ours. Lateline host Amma Alberici says programs cannot be run as they were five years ago. "To think you can keep running any show like you did five or 10 years ago is a bit naive." Alberici said her own program had been forced to reduce its staff numbers and adopt a new format following budget cuts in 2014. "It is always unfortunate to see colleagues leave the ABC and I feel the anxiety, too, because we work in an industry going through such change. But we cant ignore the reality of whats going on." ABC Radio National Drive presenter Patricia Karvelas said she did not support a no-confidence motion in ABC management passed by Radio National staff in Sydney in November. ABC Radio National host Patricia Karvelas says she does not support a no confidence motion in ABC management passed by staff The motion said the "continuing erosion of specialist programming in music, features and religion" at RN constituted "a serious breach of the ABC charter and a disservice to the Australian audiences that the ABC is funded to serve". Karvelas, who is based in Melbourne, said: "I did not and would not sign a no-confidence motion. It does not reflect how I feel, or how many of my colleagues feel. "Theres no doubt that change is always hard. Ive worked across newspapers, radio and television and Ive watched profound digital disruption across this industry. Growing new audiences is the way to survive and thrive and I believe this is the ultimate goal of the ABC." Karvelas said: "I feel only half the story is being told. RN cuts were reported but I heard very little coverage about the extra resources being deployed in a new Indigenous unit at RN. The ABCs commitment to increasing Indigenous affairs coverage is a game changer." They think digital strategy is when you upgrade an alarm clock The ABC announced in November that RN music programs The Inside Sleeve, The Live Set, The Daily Planet and The Rhythm Divine will all be decommissioned as the network moves to a talk-only format. The ABC has said the TV and radio programming changes are about keeping the broadcaster relevant rather than budget cuts. A senior ABC executive said: "There is a senior cabal at Radio National that act as standover merchants ... RN hasnt grown its audience in 10 years, yet they would prefer it to remain a cul de sac. They think digital strategy is when you upgrade an alarm clock." Another executive accused a section of staff of "declaring war" inside the ABC over changes that were "quite minor". "The digital pivot strategy has been overwhelmingly accepted by the rest of the organisation - if they dont like it they should leave," the executive said. An ABC staff member said the mood within the broadcaster was "feral" at the moment. Veteran Radio National science presenter Robin Williams last week said ABC management was "morally and spiritually bankrupt" for axing weekly science program Catalyst and replacing it with 17 single-subject, one-hour documentaries. "This week up to 17 Catalyst staff will leave the building, one of the top teams in the world dedicated to science communication, with not a farewell, a handshake or a stale biscuit like felons out onto the street," Williams wrote in an email to fellow staff. http://www.smh.com.au//if-they-dont-like-it-they-should-le
