The government's spending priorities are under fire after allocating R3.7 billion for VIP protection, more than the R2.4 billion budget for the Hawks. ActionSA says the move shows leaders are out of touch, with ministers and deputies also getting a 3.8% salary boost and spending over R500 million on travel in 18 months. ActionSA has slammed the government, saying "people before perks" is being ignored. Elvis Presslin spoke to ActionSA Member of Parliament, Alan Beesley
