A tradesman who asked Bill Shorten about tax breaks for high-income earners has been suspended from his contract job and forced to find a new job.
The father-of-three, 49, was at a free barbecue put on by his workplace in Gladstone, Queensland last month when the Opposition Leader approached him.
He was caught on camera at the Gladstone Ports Corporation telling Mr Shorten: 'It would be good to see higher wage income earners given a tax break.'
The electrical engineer went on to explain he and his colleagues worked a lot of overtime, and made up to $250,000 a year because they worked night shifts. According to the ATO, a person earning that amount can expect to pay $85,000 in tax.
