The Citizen (Gauteng)

Biggest skinflint since Scrooge

-

Sorry, Tito Mboweni, your budget left nothing for pensioners to enthuse about.

A R30 increase (1.65%) is a slap in the face and shows how little government cares about old people. Your politician­s and civil servants demand large increases to their already bloated salaries and get close to demands.

Try a 1.65% increase with them and see what happens!

You have now the record of being the biggest skinflint since Scrooge.
