    Socialist Cindy & her incompetents pushing NZ economy off a cliff.

    Suits her agenda to breed as many social welfare beneficiaries into Labour's voter base as possible.

    My parents had bought a large property in London Street Dunedin and converted into 4 flats . Young Sgt Pepper helped paint the exterior. First tenants moved in to the rear flat. Two female medical students. Totally trashed it, my parents were outraged. However the first tenants were an outlier, the others in the following years were ok, perhaps we were lucky

    Would you rather be dead or something? The rate is not expected to exceed 10% and then recover next year which is great news.

    Another month of Level 2 lockdown will crush the NZ economy - message from a top insolvency & business restructuring expert.

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/...ectid=12335450

    Paywall article
    KordaMentha partner and restructuring specialist Grant Graham (whose firm stands to benefit from insolvency work) in a social media post says New Zealand businesses cannot wait further weeks with minimal Covid-19 cases "knowing that the cost will not only be extreme but unjustifiable". He says he is dealing with people under "incredible pressure that grows day by day"

    "We will simply not find replacement jobs and looking ahead, please PM, do not tell us in 2021 that the top tax rate must be increased to solve this unjustifiable delay."

    Etc etc etc

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Will fall on deaf ears for sure.

    Socialist Cindy has got everything she wants now with the lockdown - absolute power, adoration, tens of billions of dollars to spend and most important of all, an election in September.

    Give any socialist power, in this case power and you will not get it back in a big hurry.

    I owned a corner property at 33 London st; an extremely tidy seven bedroom house let to students. It wasn't particularly troublesome but sometime after I sold it, it featured on the front page of the ODT. The tenants had held a quiet little party, and every single window in the property was smashed. Made quite a photo for the paper. Although I should add that in my experience varsity students were generally good tenants - not noted for good housekeeping, but otherwise fine.

    The fact that you believe Jacinda is a socialist in the true sense of the word, speaks volumes. If you think what we have is socialism, you are wrong. Maybe get a book out and do some homework on the subject.

    My father sold them in 1973, concerned there may be a capital gains tax in the horizon!

    Have a listen to Jacinda's speech and tell me she is not a socialist (or actually closer to communist). Asked about this she has said her ideology has not changed in the intervening years.

    Moka has already answered this for you in another thread. It applies to Jacinda equally. Me too for that matter.

    Perhaps I’m a "Social justice warrior" (SJW) which is a pejorative term for an individual who promotes socially progressive views, including feminism, civil rights, and multiculturalism.
    The opposite of “Social Justice Warrior” is “Neo-Nazi.” Neo Nazis fight against social justice - they fight, in fact, for social injustice.
