"content": "I want to speak on the lifestyle audit because corruption is the main disease that is eroding our economy. I support the lifestyle audit because it is important. It is supposed to be done fairly without witch hunt, so that each and every one is able to account for what he or she owns and what he or she is going to own. We are respected Members of Parliament. When we walk out there, civil servants laugh at us because they already know that whatever we earn here is all spent but they receive resources. We allocate money to them but it ends up in people’s pockets. We want the properties which are acquired through corruption to be given back to the Government. We want the property to be repossessed so that the Government can make use of that money because it belongs to the public. The small men in this country pay taxes because they have no option. They pay them through buying sugar and bread but the trader who is supposed to submit them does not do it."
