    She's certainly keeping it up her sleeve. Suffice to say she's a hard-line socialist. I am concerned about her asset and wealth taxes which she won't elaborate on, but I suspect a return to the bad old days of death duties, gift duties and no doubt means testing of superannuation - or something like the super surtax of a few years back. I think she's a step or two closer to turning us into another Scandinavia, which seemed to be Helen Clarke's dream. But I don't expect honest disclosure.

    she has 'values' though - at least she keeps telling us that as if we are to be impressed

    She also has a vision, and that's the frightening bit.

    Values , Vision ,Truth. great attributes for a leader sadly lacking in English after 9 years of fiddling and now throwing fake candy everywhere. Morals what morals, there are none from national in the race to the finish.They are transparently lying and deceiving for all to see. Experience ? What in how to stay there by lying; its sick really sick.

    Maybe she will say, straight up, that she won't raise GST and then go and do it?
    Where have I seen that before I wonder. Wouldn't be National would it?

    Of course it was National who also omitted to tell us they would lower income taxes to more than compensate. You moaning about that?

    taxiceman. The honesty and integrity is doing the right thing and getting the best advice from the best skilled experts with whats best for New Zealanders; she is very transparent about that.You are suspicious, well remember Labour has ethics and morals under her,national don't under bill , thats a fact too and transparent as you you can see by national's appalling win at any cost behaviour; for all to see.

    OK - I stand corrected, lies with a 'but' are OK. Especially if made by the Blue crowd.
    By the way - I'm not moaning. I'd like to see some tax reform. Labour started the journey, in part, with GST in the 1st place.

    Doing the best thing is completely subjective. Keeping your policies secret from voters is dishonest.

    You are incorrect in your subjective justifying mind, tricking yourself. A few policies are yet to come fully formed and they will use the best brains to form them. Do it once do it right .You really are fearful about nothing and there is far more of value in life then money ,fp,Get a life
