Yes Mr GM expose them all,let the public know what is happening.Its time to get the rotten apples out of the basket.

[@bantrybean9250]

Minister Gayton Mckenzie doesn't stop to amaze me with his brazen honesty, forthrightness, and I have to say also humor and wit. He's brought a lot of life, excitement, and hope for the future. He is right, government officials are servants of the people and not masters, and should be accountable to the people. When it comes to public money, there shall be no secrets. Anyone who receives public money, the nation is entitled to know. Even the President cannot hide his salary! Those who are complaining of being exposed are used to secret dealings with public funds, that time is over in Minister McKenzie's Department and the other GNU Ministers from the new parties.

@@Michaelhorn100 The guy has literally solved no problem & already people are impressed. Revealing a list of artists who benefited from covid relief grant is nothing. That grant was intended to help entertainers during lockdown but somehow people think gayton has done something remarkable. He has probably violated those entertainers' privacy.

The person asking questions? THE PRESS must also clean up their attitudes - asking questions to humiliate you. They must turn around, be positive and not be there seeking and looking for trouble. Let them be positive and turn BAD HAPPENINGS around by helping and not degrading and spreading sometimes false information or STIRRING THE POT. Mr Minister YOU ARE GREAT AND HEAVEN SENT.
