I just think its tragic - Adern has such a shallow pool of talent to work with.
How big and how many red flags does a minister (small "m" cos he hasnt earnt a big "M")need before making a sensible decision.
Oh, I'm writing to a person who I immediately identify as a con - by holding a residents visa in another's name. Nope . Nothing to see here.
A prisoner? I wonder if that is the sort of person we want in NZ. Lets not worry about such triffles
Hmm hes in prison for smuggling drugs which not only destroys the life of the user but the users family. I don't know? His mum probably loves him
Well what do you know, hes a Hells Angel Gang associate. Classy.
Whats that I hear? You are a kick boxer. I bet a person in that kind of sport wouldn't threaten an ex-wife. Ex wife - best I dont even go there.
And you say you are scared for your life if you were to be returned to your home country which is in the EU and you can carry an Eu passport which gives you free access to anywhere in the EU. That will never do.
All totally transparent and above board. Nothing of concern here. The lines can be read between without fear or favour. Now where do I sign?
The officials have done a great job and there's no bus near by, but quick now - there a golden unicorn floating past my window.
I take my hat off to this weird govt. for that move. I have long argued that it is bizarre for agents and prop. managers to charge the tenant when they are very clearly engaged by, and act for, the landlord.
If it finds its way into an increase in rent - well so be it. That's where it belongs; but I suspect the first thing we will see is many more landlords letting their own properties directly.
N.B. nothing in the above post detracts from my opinion of Phil Twyford as a complete nit-wit who is way out of his depth.
Agree with that. And I'm not sure landlords doing it direct will do any favours for prospective tenants. I suspect Landords will find their own alternative channels to find suitable tenants - some of these wont even get a look in. (disc - I always did my own management - the thought of paying an agent had no appeal given the work required)
Dont judge a book by its cover.;)
In the real world first impressions count.. Would you rent your house to this nice man? https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/cri...fender-in-dock
Agree that it is bizarre for agents and prop. managers to charge the tenants etc. But I do not think renters will be happy, when ultimately they will be paying more down the track. There is no free lunch in this business. So probably good to legislate for this but not sure what the tenants are going to celebrate.
