Okay, Canberra isn’t the most exciting place in the world. But how much would you spend to get away from it on weekends and when on leave? Probably not $180 000+. Yet our taxpayer funded Mr Peanut dear Prime Minister is spending that much, escaping Canberra for his preferred residence at Kirribilli House in Sydney. Depending on what costs you include, Johnny has spent some $187,550 to as much as $1.6million in 2006 escaping this city on RAAF VIP jets. Had he used Qantas like all his ministers and fellow MPs do, he would have only spent $50,709. Is Canberra really so bad?
