“We’re going to clean up” – words from our president. Heard that a million times, yet the “clean-up” is from our pockets. Maloak33

Pleased to see that Tito Mboweni drinks water from a glass unlike other parliament­arians who have (plastic) bottled water, adding to waste management headaches. Mbali

Tito, your budget speech was hogwash. Just another ANC cadre. He did not impress, throwing more billions at SAA. Typical ANC tactics. All hype about the new finance minister, then disappoint­ment. Same old, same old

The minister of finance in his speech tells taxpayers to pay road tolls. Minister, before you ask the taxpayers to pay for any more bailouts get your house in order. Every ANC-affiliated person who has benefitted from corruption must be audited, sell their sports cars and mansions and pay back what they stole through corruption and be jailed. Then, and only then, may we think of paying tolls. Colin, Edenvale

Taxpayers are basically just the ANC. The more we pay, the more they steal. So why pay tax? Giorgos

One more petrol price increase and they can turn the e-tolls into hitchhiker pit stops. Des du Triou

The Road Accident Fund needs more money to survive: with all the fraud at SOEs, no one can tell me there isn’t massive chicanery taking place. An investigat­ion is urgently needed. Graham, Boksburg

Ramaphosa, you cannot say government is getting on top of corruption. This can only take effect when you fire all the corrupt ministers and officials. Ediv

Between Vavi’s Saftu and Jim’s NUM there won’t be anything left worth “striking” for in the banana republic, thanks to your pathetic unions crippling the economy with your ridiculous wage demands! Clio R
