Partly Facetious: He didn't go at taxpayers' expense

"Democracy is here at last!"
"If you are referring to the London meeting of three men - the true leader, the heir apparent in the event that the true leader is unable to take his due place as head of government and the titular head of government who is unlikely to ever have this exalted position ever again..."
"Oye, back off will you, I mean Shahid Khaqan Abbasi is still the country's prime minister and you need to appreciate the fact that he bought the ticket from his own pocket and..."
"Speaking of tickets how did our Finance Minister Ishaq Dar buy tickets when all his accounts have been frozen?"
"What tickets?"
"Well, he went at the taxpayers' expense when he went to attend a conference in Dushanbe, but reportedly sent the plane back and then procured a ticket for Saudi Arabia where Nawaz Sharif was supposed to be resident and I am not sure the two even met and then Dar bought a ticket for London for what his lawyer claims were some medical tests and..."

"Don't be facetious. Dar sahib has been rich for more than a couple of decades at least."
"The new rich are second generation rich not first generation."
"Ah I see, but anyway when Dar went to London he was not part of the meeting of the troika and..."
"And that brings me to why I said democracy is here at last."
"Oh, you mean the party has decided that the next generation had better shut up and not put out..."
"I doubt if either Maryam or Hamza can be made to shut up for long so they will talk."
"But who will inherit was a decision made by the troika as you say and not the other party members and..."
"You are being deliberately obtuse - when I said democracy is here at last I was referring to the fact that the word troika was used for the Sharif Brothers and the Prime Minister while you and I of the old generation refer to the troika as the establishment and the judiciary and the...."
"Oh, for crying out loud!"
