One of the ‘bad habits’ of govt is ‘this idea that spending is quote an investment’: Credlin
“They call it ‘off budget’ spending to try and obscure the reality of what it costs you, the taxpayer,” Ms Credlin said.

“Honestly, billions and billions and billions of your money to deliver high-speed broadband that the commercial sector was already doing faster and cheaper than government,” she said.

Credlin is a Cretin, a political hack way beyond her used by date.
