In a series of tweets, PM Imran Khan announced that he will forgo protocol and security for any private function in order to save taxpayer money and avoid inconvenience to the public. There will also be a review of protocol and security for other government officials. He linked the use of protocol and security to colonial legacy.
Next week Cabinet will decide on a comprehensive policy in this regard. We will put an end to the colonial legacy of pomp & glory used to overwhelm the people.

Dear PM, we are with you:
To save more Govt expenses:
1. End authorization of vehicles to all Govt officers (except hilly areas)
2. Increase conveyance allowance & give them leased(vehicles will be theirs after 5 yrs) vehicles on 1-2% markup

More useless optics; work on reducing inflation particularly on basic foodstuffs. Cutting the defence budget would be a great place to start, but of course we know none of this is in your hands. You’re only empowered to perform useless optics & make sexist statements.
