How can politicians pass laws related to violence in the workplace but at the same time not hold their laws onto themselves?

Go to work tomorrow and threaten to punch someone in the mouth and see how that works out for you?

Politicians can without consequences so why can they do it and not us?

In most work places you'd be summarily dismissed.

I was once in a workplace where I broke up more than one fight and it wasn't unusual for a few people to threaten to bring in a knife

“ Yes, in Queensland, someone can be charged for threatening to punch another person, as it can be considered assault under the Criminal Code 1899. This falls under the definition of assault, which includes threatening to apply force to another person. The key factors are that the threat is made with the intent to apply force or under circumstances that give the other person a present ability to carry out the threat, creating a reasonable fear of assault in the mind of an ordinary person. ”

“ AI

So the law states he should be charged but hasn’t been, is that because he’s a leb, a politician or not an ordinary citizen or all three?

Why are politicians above the law?
