Senator bruce encourages colleagues shun luxury spending
I think there may be a mistake here. I'm not aware of a Senator named Bruce who has encouraged his colleagues to shun luxury spending. Could you please provide more context or clarify which Senator Bruce you are referring to?
However, I can tell you that there have been instances where politicians have spoken out against excessive spending or luxury spending, often citing concerns about fiscal responsibility, equality, or the impact on the public purse. If you're interested, I can try to provide some examples or information on this topic.
