And on the obsolete 2014 thread I'm sure Paula B will be absolutely delighted to be termed "lightweight" by EZ. All that without even joining weightwatchers :-)

There the point - you needed a decent deposit, 20% when I bought my 1st home in 1985 , interest rates hit 20% for a brief period so your x4 todays rate is briefly correct (I know I was paying that rate!) you certainly couldn't get in to a property with no deposit or less than 20%. The cost of my 1st house was x3 my salary so there you are Gareth is about right.
The tide eventually will turn - just ask Clark, Muldoon & Bolger - now theres 2 of your stand out leaders, at least under Bolger we didn't suffer a dictatorship - Muldoons the same guy who destroyed a wonderful super scheme brought in by the Kirk govt and yes we had to wait for another Labour govt to get the next super scheme - says a lot really.
I just saw Paula Bennett on Q&A re signing the Paris accord on reducing emissions.
She acted as if signing a bit of paper was a great effort and that it was a huge step forward.
National's policies fly in the face of reducing emissions.
Sponsoring oil exploration and a major sponsor of dairy intensification.
They have cut the budget to things like DOC.
Emissions in NZ have risen steadily and continue to do so and National is avoiding doing anything about it, because its obvious they are in complete denial about man made climate change.
Labour is better in opposition because they have more practice at it.
