Na it was $950 to begin with until this happened....
That's where everybody's extra $50 went! Now its a $900 maximum payment... pffftt $900-$950 it's free money nonetheless!
Senator X was going to vote against the payment because his own projects and interests were not being funded. If he had voted no, we wouldnt have gotten anything. He was paid off $50 each for the 'Yes' vote.
EVO-00X said:No doubt Senator Xenophon will be happy now (Ifrikken blackmail I call it). He ranted yesterday asking for funding for the Murray-Darliing Basin and pretty much held the balance of power. Looks like the PM threw some money his way overnight for his project and now he's voted for it. Oh look, the Murray-Darling Basin is getting some fastracked funding lol...
