Is there more responsibility though, apart from taking 6am calls from lazy journos doing the 'both sides' angle?

And it gets particularly egregious in the ACT where the role is largely ceremonial. Why shouldn't the indies get a pay bump? They have to do all the work of Lee without a party structure and staff and free kicks from old media to assist them.

What's so special about being a Labor or Liberal parliamentarian that you're guaranteed extra pay over every other member of parliament or assembly? Greens can't access when not in power, but Nats can. Stupid system.
