Institute of Public Affairs Daniel Wild says the recent revelation of Labor MPs spending a lot of money just reveals the “hypocrisy” being seen out of the political class.
Mr Wild’s comments come after the spending of both Assistant Treasurer Stephen Jones and Employment and Workplace Relations Minister Tony Burke was revealed.
Mr Wild said there “does appear to be a pattern of behaviour” coming from politicians and their spending.
“It’s not the amount of money that’s the problem it’s the mentality that they have,” Mr Wild told Sky News host Rita Panahi.
“The MPs that are typically the worst at this are the first to criticize their opponents.”
