Jeremy Rockliff's priorities are so wrong that he has paid more than $6 million to public servants accused of child sexual abuse.
Of the 74 employees stood down on full pay due to such allegations, 22 were stood down on full pay for more than a year, and six others more than 1,000 days.
The collective length of time these 74 employees have been stood down on full pay is more than 61 years.
Why are taxpayers paying potential child sexual abusers more than $6 million and why does it take so long to investigate allegations?
We are hearing of pensioners constantly struggling to pay their power bills. Tasmanians are choosing between heating and eating over winter. Coming up to Christmas more Tasmanians than ever are struggling to keep food on the table.
The cost of living crisis is getting worse under Jeremy Rockliff and Liberals, but it seems they are more concerned about paying suspended employees millions of taxpayer dollars to not work for up to three years.
