Just one question - how do Queensland ex-MP's pension entitlements compare to those in other states and the federal parliament?

I love it how they are under paid but do it for the love of their state.

$175k per annum.  Not bad work, plus another $750k to the QLD taxpayers for a by-election

Its indexed and she will get it no matter what her future income is.
But to single her out is pretty lame because retiring Liberal and National pollies are under the same scheme.

I thought Bligh was pretty good. She had spunk at least.
Sadly for her, because Australian Politics is 'swinging' its pendulum more extremely these last few decades, if anyone hasn't noticed Huh
All the States will become Liberal under a Labour Federal.
...just like it was once all State Labour under a Liberal Federal.

One day that pendulum will swing so much - Australian Politics will eventually break and it will be CIVIL WAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ALP, the progressive party, the party of ideas, the workers' friend, is the only Australian political party to roast four young Australians in roof cavities. SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!
