On the 17th of August, The Taxpayers' Union will be hosting the 6th annual Jonesie Waste Awards, live from Parliament.
Nominations have now opened for the awards of Local Government, Central Government and Lifetime Achievement.
What are the Jonesie Waste Awards? The Jonesie Waste Awards is an unapologetic yet tongue-in-cheek recognition of the most memorable acts of government waste, excessive regulation, and inefficiency. It's an opportunity to hold those in power accountable for their actions and bring attention to the issues that matter most.
