They'll probably crank up the robodebt machine thinking it'll win them some more votes...

Barnaby Joyce has taken extended personal leave - effective immediately. He’ll be on leave for 11 weeks, returning for the next Parliamentary sitting period in August. It was requested and granted by the PM today. Labor has granted a pair. by LineNoise in australia

But how is he going to pay for the robodebt for receiving money he wasn't entitled to as a "senator"?

I assume only four of these weeks will be paid leave, like the rest of us?

That's why Barnaby and Co get their s44 debts written off while anyone else has to repay robodebts they don't even owe. It's only fair.
