    Cindy being called out for breaching mask wearing and social distancing advice in mainstream media.

    I have mentioned before and will do so here again - the media reads ST & it’s good to see them highlighting the blatant hypocrisy here by Cindy.

    Couple days late to the party but nice to see the hypocrisy finally broadcasted for all to see.

    Seymour is running a great campaign too. He has a knack for pointing out flaws without coming across too negative.

    What a stupid comment.

    He doesn't seem to be connecting with people when I see him on tv. too bland for this I think.

    If you don't have an ambition to raise incomes but actually want to cut taxes, then how will there not be more debt.

    Your comment that only those on minimum wages pay tax shows appalling ignorance. 24% of income tax is paid by the top 3% of earners. Those with incomes over $100,000 pay 42% of the total. Those under $50,000 pay only 19% of the total, yet comprise an extremely high percentage of earners.

    You’re talking to a paid shill of the Labour Party, obviously lowly paid as they are completely and utterly ignorant. An embarrassment to the Labour Party.

    I didn't mean only these workers and you should obviously know that.

    Not at all but the sort of stuff that's coming from the other side forces me to correct some pretty mistaken ways of thinking. So take a step outside the newstalk echo chamber.

    To be honest I don't think real kiwis care about the "scandals" posted here now and again, or on Newstalk. A bugee jumping subsidy.. really.

    No. I am not a mind-reader. That's how it reads, although there is no reference to the post you are commenting on, and btw what on earth is Nationals GST refund scheme you were on about in post 6263?

    Oh dear - so if one is poorly paid maybe a cleaner or kitchenhand they are unworthy - a typical blue blood comment, sad really
