    Nationals great hits of 2022:


    • 50 cents per day for a median wage "bottom feeder".
    • $18k tax cut for the wealthy.
    • -1 public holiday.
    • Defund public transport.
    • Ban an item of clothing.
    • Slash spending ( or public services).


    Keep this sort of stuff coming =)

    They have nothing to do with any of the disasters caused by Ardern & Labour who are wastefully throwing $$$$ at with ZERO results :

    Start with housing,

    Divisive racist policies,

    Incompetent ministers,

    Then, crime & gangs,

    Followed by cost of living.

    All Spin & NO delivery.

    There was about $2 Billion of new spending allocated to Māori in the last budget. Any cuts that could be made there, or is this what we euphemistically call ‘delivering for Māori’ and therefore it is of paramount importance to keep these enormous sums flowing to Māori?

    Start with the $120m for fixing marae election bribe & to create up to 3,000 jobs.

    Last update was that only 150 jobs were created so there are some very fat & happy Maori contractors out there.

    Labour could spend $150 Billion a week and panda would still say that each and every dollar was well spent & ask: ‘what critical public services will National cut?’
    Reminds me of the Helen Clark government where the railways were bought back for an outrageous sum & Labour MP’s were singing about ‘how many dead rats will National have to swallow’. Now out-of-control spending is the ‘dead rat’, with Labour constantly raising fears National will cut ‘health and education’ when they move to cut the bloat and shameful waste.

    They aren't so the point is moot.
    What will National cut since they want to cut taxes (mostly for the wealthy), cut the debt fast and increase spending - something has to give (again - like last time with them)?

    Where's the scare? simply listen to what National are saying.

    Luxon was the one who brought up education as an area of wasteful spending in his Q&A interview.

    Then there's public transport.

    Which & what part of Labour’s wasteful spending do you not get?



    Remember the $3 billion Provincial Growth Fund, bribe for Winston to choose Ardern (the accidental PM)? What value and accountability have NZ obtained from that largess?

    The point is that no matter what Labour do panda will defend them to the hilt, and you won’t be far behind him.
    Then there is me prepared to criticise any party that panders to property investors and / or property speculators that have borrowed far too much and now don’t want to face the consequences of their own actions.
    (To be fair though, Labour has shoved low income people ‘on the ladder’ and this basically stuffed their lives up by saddling them with huge debt + soon to be negative equity).

    I can call a spade a spade, whereas you are stuck with being absolutely rusted on to the Labour bandwagon.
