An example of Abbott/Turnbull Government’s waste and extravagance is the former Treasure, now ambassador to the USA, Joe Hockey spent $20,000 on soirees during his 2-year tenure as Treasure.

One of the most outrageous examples of Abbott/Turnbull Government’s waste is when Julie Bishop spent more than $130,000 on flying Koala’s to Singapore for a diplomatic event.

Julie Bishop is a continual offender when it comes to waste of taxpayer  funds, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop takes a tour each year with foreign ambassadors at an average cost of $55,000 per day and she always makes sure her entourage is on the guest list – even when they make up a quarter of the room at a $350 a head dinner.
