Don’t punish the poor, cut parly jobs

-

The big chunk of salary cuts and retrenchme­nts must start at the parliament­ary structure.

In one department we have a minister, deputy minister, director and deputy director. All of the above are earning huge salaries with endless fringe benefits.

When they plan to reduce the wage bill, they only look at poor workers who earn peanuts with no benefits at all. How cruel life can be to the poor workers. Mathunjwa
