    You are correct Macduff ..... many don't like Seymour .. but out of all the bobbleheads in the beehive he makes sense if ACT could actually walk the talk well who knows he's keep to his line from the day he entered politics .. neither Nation and esp not Labour seem to have a clue about running NZ in the right direction .. NET ZERO policy is looney tunes ..

    I enjoy listening to Leighton smith >>this clip has interview with Seymour

    The free market can't solve it as other countries seem to have the same problem.

    The act party solution would be slum housing.

    Making it more expensive for people to use housing as a tradeable financial instrument rather than something to live in.

    If past target practice is any indication they'll probably take off all their toes in the process,
    then try to blame the shooting device for all the problems and want a full refund from the manufacturer
    who will likely suffer a banning for the next 50 years

    Perhaps someone could suggest a faster way in which the job could have been executed, which instantly
    may have produced more shades of commonsense ..

    brooke van velden in the herald this morning. ACT staking a claim as the pro immigration party.

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politi...Y7O4SBUJ5DP6A/

    More people the answer to our falling house problem while Adrian's hands are tied by inflation.

    As a libertarian/capitalist party I would be interested in how they propose to wrest control of the price of capital from central planners and allow a free market to set the most important price in a capitalist economy.

    Not much from them so far but to be fair Brooke does end with this.

    We need real change to turn the decline around and make our country the preferred destination for ideas, talent and investment.

    Obviously, they have no great ideas so hopefully one of their immigrants brings in one or two with them.

    Then again why can't kiwis generate their own ideas and nurture their own talent and invest in themselves and their future generations without the need for excessive population growth.

    Simple :

    NZ youths are now leaving NZ in droves for Australia and other countries.

    Thanks to Ardern & her regressive economic policies, divisive, racist, free spending failed welfare policies of taking from those who study hard, work hard and save hard to give to those who don’t.

    Why should any hardworking youngster with a future stay in NZ?

    We should be encouraging as many of them to leave as they are in huge demand overseas. Better future for them and their children.

    Agreed any hardworking youngster should be pi*sed off with Labour and National. They both pander to the boomers and s*it on the young people. Rather than leaving maybe young people should stay and put a bit of thought into what sort of country they want and which party has the policies to achieve it.

    People leaving are tiny compared to the numbers that have been coming in over the years. How can we have a labour shortage when in 2015-2019 we had net inward migration of 50,000 a year plus 90,000 in 2020 with covid. Nothing in 2021 and now we have a loss of 7,000 the country is going to hell in a hand basket apparently.

    Someone is talking a lot of s*it. A labour shortage with 7,000 leaving after getting over 340,000 in the years prior. Something does not add up. Lots of people coming means more building and infrastructure creating an upward spiral of more people more consumption more growth, but to what end??

    https://www.stats.govt.nz/news/annua...%202020%20year.

    ACT has no idea but what major party is suggesting restricting immigration.

    If you want to be a bit macavellian you could convince Australia to rescind SCV's.

    That would put domestic working rights back on the agenda with these people not accepting the huge reduction in living standards.

    Right now the only people left in NZ are 2+ property owning chardonnay drinkers.
