We remember the crisis of 2008 when Latvia's debt was about 10% of GDP. Over three years, it increased to 40. Therefore, smarter management of existing state resources is necessary to reduce the state's role in the economy and increase its efficiency, helping the economy to recover more quickly. The needs in the state budget will be immense. #ValstsBudžets #FinanšuMinistrija #Taupība (translated)

Organizētā noziedzīgā grupējuma "Progresīvie" vadītājs Šuvajevs, no Saeimas tribīnes asarīgā balsī kviec, ka budžetu nav jātaupa, iedzīvotājiem jāgarantē drošības sajūta un vēl draud, ka šie progresīvie mulķi valdībā obligāti atgriezīsies. Tad lūk klausies uzmanīgi, Šuvajev, ja ne jūsu Sprūds, Briškens, Švinka un pārēja "ideālistu" kaitnieku komanda, tad Latvijā nemaz nebūtu radies tāds robs budžetā. Taupība mums lielā mērā būs vajadzīga pateicoties jūsu absolūtai izgāšanās Satiksmes ministrijā. Savukārt iedzīvotāji justos droši un gulētu mierīgāk, ja jūs nevis divus ar pusi gadus sabotētu valsts drošību Aizsardzības ministrijas vadībā, bet gan reāli parūpētos gan par detekciju, gan dronu notriekšanu. Jums nevis jāsapņo, ka jūs atkal būsiet valdībā, bet gan jālūdzas, lai par jūsu nedarbiem nesanāk doties jauno Liepājas cietumu testēt. #Latvija #Politika #Budžets
