Prime Minister Tony Abbott has announced the creation a “Razor Gang,” in order to instil “root and branch reform” to “restore public confidence” in the parliamentary entitlement system.
The XYZ has never been shy of blowing its own trumpet, so this story practically asks for it. On August 2, The XYZ was only half joking when it suggested that if the travel expenses of all politicians were investigated, the seventh circle of hell would open up beneath Canberra.
Is it unreasonable to suggest, that if The XYZ was (more or less) correct in predicting a full investigation into parliamentary entitlements, some its its other, more outlandish predictions, could also come to pass?
All we are saying, is watch Penny Wong like a hawk..
