Anyone attacking Labour's record on housing needs to PROVE that NACT are going to be any better. Going on their past performance they will probably sell off more social housing to help balance their books.
Look at the good post 4513 on this thread. It indicates very strongly that this huge increase in "need" for social housing is directly correlated to Labour's policy of releasing criminals into our society. So whatever you say about it, it is clear to most people that Labour's social housing policy is an absolute disaster and has achieved absolutely nothing other than drive up house prices and turn certain areas into slums. National & ACT will quickly reduce the demand for social housing by keeping criminals in jail, where they belong, which will hopefully make some houses available for unfortunate families that really need them.

Get stuffed ‘Stuff’. 😂
Far left media outlet has a whinge. Look at the pathetic spin they put on the story. Chimpy is crook, Luxon has a full diary next week, and Davis isn’t up to debating Willis.

'Extremely disappointing': Luxon won't face The Press and its readers
‘National Party campaign chairperson Chris Bishop says South Island voters will not miss out after his leader, Christopher Luxon, pulled out of The Press leaders debate.
He said Luxon wasn't trying to hide, as Labour has alleged, and pointed out the two were still scheduled to face off in the TVNZ leaders debate on Thursday next week.
"Guess what, people in the South Island have TV," Bishop said.
"I'm just saying - Nicola Willis is happy to debate Kelvin Davis. Christopher Luxon is happy to debate Chris Hipkins, he's done it twice."
Leaders of The Press and Stuff had tried to find an alternative date for Luxon to face Labour leader Chris Hipkins in The Press leaders debate, after Hipkins fell ill with Covid-19. The debate was scheduled to take place on Tuesday.
The Press leaders' debate is the only major debate filmed in the South Island, and more than 2000 voters had ticked to watch both Hipkins and Luxon.
Joanna Norris, the managing director of Stuff's masthead publishing arm, said it was "extremely disappointing".
"We had been working until this afternoon to secure alternative dates for the two leaders," she said.
"This is obviously extremely disappointing to the thousands of people who were looking forward to seeing both leaders in person in the only South Island debate."
Bishop said Luxon had a full calendar next week.’

I'm not surprised he doesn't want to go ahead with the Press debate at some unknown future date. Stuff is not a neutral media outlet but nothing short of a rag of political activism on many issues.
Chris Bishop has made claims that National candidates have received death threats from gangs https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/there-...26MQCZO4S24DA/
I searched Stuff and see no mention of this while we had story after story a few days ago when a Labour candidate's home had been burgled. Stuff can not be taken seriously.

Although personally I'm not against the tax deductibility being returned, pulling back from a Clayton's CGT on property & allowing foreign buyers in will all see property prices rising again.
Part of the RBNZs mandate is now housing price stability.
Will National’s policies see the RBNZ have to maintain higher interest rates for longer?
Will NZ mortgage holders be paying for National’s short term thinking?
It seems Goldman Sachs agree with my view on the impact of National’s housing policies will see interest rates either higher or at least stay high for longer.
