    A coalition government in disarray. And it is going to get worse as elf tion day approaches.

    Kiwibuild should serve as a resounding warning to all NZers, especially those who were hoodwinked into voting for Comrade Cindy on the promise of affordable homes that this is a government of incompetents & convenient with the tail wagging the dog.

    Another word - “Record unemployment”

    Q : Have you all heard about the new KFC post-Covid-19 Value Deal?

    A : Order anything you like and the government will find the first SME owner behind you to pay for the meal.

    Yes, she remains an excellent communicator. I reckon she gave us 2 and a 1/2 minutes of spin before she finally announced Level 1. It has become a sad feature of her announcements. Heavily politicised propaganda campaign.

    FRAME THE NARRATIVE. The first rule of modern propaganda and Ardern is a master at it.

    When asked about the "caretaker" role a government takes 3 months out from an election she was at her evasive best, knowing full well they have a 20 billion dollar slush fund to dish lollies from leading into the election, and can claim it was already allocated.

    A master class in cynical political opportunism. One for political historians to salivate over for generations. We're just the poor schmucks who will have to pay for it.

    Well done NZ. Smile and feel good about level 1 while you have been royally screwed over.

    Does not any of Labour's failings and cynicism concern you. Are you prepared to sweep them under the carpet in your relief at being in Level 1?

    Bang on observations, jonu.

    I have confidence that post lockdown L2, the focus will shift back to economic matters.

    Reality will hit soon enough that NZ has an incompetent government incapable of delivering economic growth and stability.

    The youth of NZ would have already worked out by now that Comrade Cindy is not going to lead them Into the promised land of affordable housing, relevant education and career opportunities.

    In fact, this government has betrayed every economic promise it made in 2017 to steal the election at that time. And the youths and their children are going to pay for the debt burden which will be passed to them for generations to repay.

    Bring on September!

    Kiwibuild, anyone? 🤪
