Viv Nicholson coined the phrase \u201cSpend, spend, spend\u201d when she scooped the pools back in 1961 \u2013 but at least it was her money she was spending \u2013 whereas Sunak, the present Chancellor, has borrowed her phrase \u2013 but is spending <strong>our money<\/strong> on ill thought out schemes, short term popularity contests and with reckless abandon. \u00a0And throughout this \u2013 the British people are being kept in the dark \u2013 as to how this will be repaid and when\u2026 A democratic government must have the right to make decisions on behalf of its citizens \u2013 but at all times \u2013 when it comes to <strong>taxpayer money<\/strong> it must be a candid about the true costs and the true consequences of its decisions. \u00a0There is no such thing as a \u201cfree lunch\u201d \u2013 and we expect more from this Government than pretending there is.
