- Description
In four frames Finance Minister Bill English is shown responding to questions from the floor at a press conference. Someone says 'The Nats will spend the remainder of its taxpayer funded leader's budget on pamphlets explaining the budget' to which Bill English replies 'Yes..' The person then says 'isn't that a cynical last minute electioneering ploy before the end of the financial year?' and Bill English says 'No..' Then the person says 'if it wasn't spent wouldn't taxpayers benefit? Bill English says 'How? They'd never learn how our policies are saving money!' Context - National is sending out leaflets in the name of its MPs, ostensibly to explain the Budget it delivered last month. Both are said to be anxious to spend their postal allocation before the financial year ends tomorrow because the rules governing the allocation require them to use it or lose it.
