Jul 14 - GSD Says Chief Minister “Must Account To The Taxpayer For His Lavish Political Lifestyle”
The Opposition has said that the Government's “nervous response” to last Friday's GSD advertisement pointing out that the entertainment and travel costs include not just the Chief Minister’s but also all other Ministers and staff at No 6, is a “smokescreen for Mr Picardo’s lavish public expenditure” and the political lifestyle he has become used to since taking over the running of the Government. The GSD says that Mr Picardo “cannot hide from the fact” that public expenditure in these areas is “growing hugely” and was “massively over budget” from the amounts he predicted last year.
