The former premier says work-from-home arrangements are creating a social divide.

Would you take a pay cut to work from home?

Former Victorian premier Jeff Kennett is proposing public servants who work remotely should be paid less than those that have no choice but to commute — such as nurses and teachers.

He explained his idea to Sammy J on ABC Radio Melbourne Breakfast.

    And how about politicians only get paid for when they are at work sitting in parliament?

    And don’t get a fat cat pension for the rest of their lives.

    The lack of self awareness is fucking unbelievable.
