ROGUE Victorian MP Geoff Shaw has told a comedy show audience he's been "screwed by the parliament".

HEADLINING the event at Melbourne's Wheeler Centre on Friday, Mr Shaw was asked what he thought of parliament's decision to suspend him.

"(I was) screwed by the parliament, wasn't I?" he replied.Mr Shaw was suspended on Wednesday night until September 2, ordered to apologise and repay more than $6800 for misusing his parliamentary car and entitlements.Appearing onstage with comedian Sammy J, he was asked if he would, in fact, apologise and responded with: "To the people of Victoria, I'm exceptionally sorry."Earlier on Friday, Victorian Premier Denis Napthine said he was waiting for a sign of contrition from the suspended independent MP.Dr Napthine said he had not heard from Mr Shaw since Wednesday's vote to suspend him."I have no plans to talk to the member for Frankston," Dr Napthine said."But I would say to the member for Frankston that he has been dealt the toughest penalty in the Victorian parliament's history for over 100 years - that should be a very, very serious lesson to the member for Frankston."The premier said Mr Shaw needed to have a good look in the mirror and change his ways, and should not wait until the end of his suspension to show the Victorian public he was sorry.Mr Shaw's suspension has left the Victorian government and opposition deadlocked on 43 votes apiece in the lower house, with the government requiring the Speaker's backing to pass legislation.
