Yup - throw 20% GDP of debt funded spending to get 5% GDP growth, cost of living crisis and housing disaster.
Takes someone really special (& clueless) to obtain that kind of outcome!

Breaking news from a Labour Party insider :
Auckland focus group used to attract between 200 to 300 party faithfuls keen to give feedback and suggestions to Ardern & her ministers about how things are going and how their government is being perceived by the public.
Recent months have seen less than 30 attendees - because Ardern & her mob are not interested in their feedback. Instead, they are told to toe the party line and get out & spin like Ardern about what a great job the government is doing.
Insider said the arrogance of Ardern & her mob is now beyond belief. Completely out of touch with the public and with previous party faithfuls.
He is certainly not going to waste any more time on what is an outgoing government.
Ardern has been busy promoting NZ overseas :

Christians (both confessions, though the Catholic church was much more effective) loved to burn innocent people (mainly women) as witches ... so - burning innocent people is clearly a Christian value
Catholic Church loves to protect child molestors and hide them from punishment - i.e. supporting and furthering child molestors clearly is a Christian value.
Russian Orthodox church (yes, they are Christians as well) fully supports Putin's attack against Ukraine - i.e. the raping of women and the killing of thousands of civilians clearly must be a Christian value
Christians loved their crusades and killed hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians to occupy territories they had no business in - another great Christian value.
But I am sure there are more ...
Christian values are not values as practised by the Catholic Church or the various sects which have emerged over the centuries - where theology, power and doctrine rule in place of values.
Christian values derive from the teachings of Jesus Christ - a man or God (depending on one’s point of view) who preached :
love,
peace,
tolerance,
kindness,
forgiveness and
goodwill
towards our fellow human beings.
He did not live a luxurious life, travelled around in basic clothings (no tall hats and clothings of silk & gold threads), did not lead an army of soldiers intent on war & conquest and he led an exemplary life while preaching spiritual well-being over material well-being to the multitude.
So what’s wrong with the above as so many on the left in NZ today would have us believe otherwise?
