The least he deserves.

Following reports that a serially offending MP had again inflamed the community with his 496th anti-democratic action, an Extinction Rebellion activist told 2GB host Ray Hadley that his generous taxpayer-funded income should be cut.

The activist also blamed Prime Minister Morrison for not deterring the disruptive actions.

“Community expectation is these people are heavily fined or jailed and they should be jailed until their behaviour changes because they are putting lives at risk,” he told Sydney radio 2GB.

“They’re diverting police and emergency service resources from tasks that they should be undertaking otherwise and they keep turning up week after week because they know a slap on the wrist is just not working.

“The Prime Minister needs to come out and explain why this is acceptable. If there needs to be mandatory or minimum sentences imposed, that can happen overnight in the Federal parliament.”

The protester then called for Dutton to be publically shamed.

“People should take his name and the photo of this man and distribute them as far and wide as they can so that we shame him."
