Are we paying our MP's to watch porn?

MPs may have viewed child porn on parliamentary computers | News.com.au
CHILD pornography may have been viewed on parliamentary computers, the New South Wales Speaker has revealed.
Legal advice will be sought to see if child pornography was viewed on Parliament House computers after a second audit of computers found nine suspect websites.
The report, tabled in the state's lower house on Thursday, says that of the 72 most popular sites accessed on parliamentary computers over a 10-month period, 35 "appear to be adult related sites".
Nine websites contained sexually explicit images of young people, the report said.
"If the persons depicted in the images are found to be under the age of 18, it is possible that contraventions of the Criminal Code Act 1995 may have occurred," it said.
"If the persons depicted in the images are found to be under the age of 16, it is possible that contraventions of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW) may have occurred.
"Accordingly, you may wish to seek independent legal advice in relation to these issues and next steps, if any."

I thought our MP's were busy working, instead they are well paid to watch porn and wasting tax payers money.
What kind of people are we electing to parliament?
These types of incidents cascade to the community, making it more acceptable down the chain. They are supposed to be role models, aren't they?
Lately it is becoming a common occurrence to see stars, sports, and MP's involved in sexual abuse, porn and violence. What kind of example are we giving to our children? What's next?
