    Someone needs to tell the media.

    Where's your sense of humour, it's almost too funny to be true.

    Can imagine how impressed John Key & Bill English are.
    This is the 4th mistake he's admitted to so far, miss costed National's Tourism policy, miss costed the Greens tax policy, miss costed National's own budget twice.
    I don't think accounting & finance is his strength.
    But who else to replace him in National, cause I'm having difficulty thinking of anyone.
    Could you trust this guy to run the countries finances.
    They waited for PREFU to get the latest numbers and were so excited he didn't read them.

    If you are going to do it do it right.
    The man is a waste of space.
    Last election we had National and their big fiscal hole that didn't exist.
    They should invest in a new abacus.

    You mean like Kiwibuild?

    Blow the numbers out by a staggering 97% and it's all okay because the budget can be reset?

    Take the beams out of your eyes, dobby41 before you comment about the speck of dust in your brother's eyes.

    Governing and making decisions based upon polls and maintaining popularity = sure way to ruin a country. Venezuela is an excellent example.
