维州政府因不建East West Link而需要赔偿共4.2亿的资金（包括3.39亿的前期建设费用和8100万的工程信贷融资），反对党则对此很不满，认为工党政府白白浪费了这笔钱。

前天的维州议会上，反对党的议员们和工党就白白送出纳税人的4.2亿进行激烈的争吵。反对党逼问，如果这4.2亿的纳税人的钱不用赔偿出去，可以给维州带来什么。

但现在这笔钱却被浪费了。

维州副州长James Merlino对此作出了回应，他说这是因为前任政府签约的合同，才给维州人民造成了4.2亿澳元的损失，他说如果前任联盟党不签订这个合同，维州将多出4.2亿来建造公共设施。

用4.2亿可以在维州建什么：

• 34 primary schools 34所小学

• 16 secondary schools in growth areas 16 所开发区域中学

• 1200 new school relocatables 1200个新校区

• More than 4400 primary welfare officers at schools

• A small new hospital 小型医院

• About 19 new suburban trains 19班列车

• 30 new 24 hour police stations 30座 24小时警局

或者可以买到：
• 120 million flat whites at $3.50 each 一百二十万杯flat whites lol

• 627 Melbourne homes at median price of $669,000 627套均价在66万9000得别墅

• 420,420 iPhone 6s at $999 each 。。。。这么多苹果6 S

• 4.5 Boeing 737-800s at 2014 price of $93.3 million each 4.5部波音737型号

这一切都会随风而去。。。。。。

East West Link 'vital infrastructure': Prime Minister

In a statement, Mr Abbott congratulated Mr Andrews on the election victory and paid tribute to Denis Napthine, and his determination to push ahead with the road project.

"I share his commitment to the East West Link and I am determined to do what I can to ensure this vital national infrastructure project proceeds to completion," Mr Abbott said.

Earlier this week the Liberal government ministers claimed taxpayers would be hit with a $1.1billion compensation bill if the project was scrapped.

Newly elected Greens Lower House MP Ellen Sandell said she would use her position to hold Labor to their promise to tear up contracts for the project.

"Most people have been telling me they don't trust Labor, there are people in Labor who still want to build the toll road, so it's great that we've elected a Green who can hold them to account," Ms Sandell said.

"I'll be working there every single day to make sure that road's not built."

Mr Andrews said Parliament would be back to work before Christmas and the new ministry is expected to be sworn in mid-week.
