Laughing at us: Shane Ross on €170,000 a year claims €10,000 from taxpayers to buy himself a new electric car




He is arguably the worst Minister for Transport in history, but Shane Ross is really taking the biscuit now.

Ross has an enormous salary of €170,000 per year PLUS expenses.

The man, who many believe literally hates drivers, took €13,000 in travel expenses in 2018.

But wait for it – he has taken €10,000 State taxpayer funded expenses to buy himself a brand new electric car that costs €50,000 and is now reduced to €40,000.

You’ll be lucky enough now to see Ross drive around Dundrum in his brand new 192 Hyundai Kona EV.
