Green Party co-leader James Shaw has backed a CGT strongly, suggesting that the Government did not deserve to be re-elected if it didn't implement a CGT.
Well this is awkward given that under current polling the Greens are the 'Kingmakers'.

Ridiculous. Its a question that needed to be asked.Thank Winston for this and the country majority which complains but in reality has no appetite atpit. Winston gives himself a good chance of getting back in and continues utu on national at the same time.

Greens are spineless, we have seen that already. Putting Labour into power is their only reason for being around.

No it didnt. Every time the issue s raised no-one wants it. Nothing has changed about a CGT to make it so attractive as to make it worht asking the question again. Lanbour would have known this if they had bothered doing any work in their 9 years in oppositon. Good news though. De-risks our share market.

I don't trust the idiots though. Should Labour get in on their own or with just the Kermits then they will just announce it is happening on 1/4/21. They will get the two terms and hang their hopes on it being accepted in that term. And would the Kermits go with them if they don't bring CGT in. Shaw has already stated the if it is not there then they don't deserve to be government.
Words that it won't happen under her watch are just that.

Of course it was s pointless waste of $2 million of taxpayers money, run by a Labour insider. It was never going to run with neither political nor voter support.
I wonder how long the Government will continue paying Cullen his over $ 1,000 per day, seeing he's now out there attacking Winston and NZ First (the same thing really) ?

For Labour to Concentrate on land-banking as opposed to a general cgt is a wise move. Specifically targeted reforms could help address some concerns.
Many reforms start in a piecemeal fashion.

Should provide a popularity boost for NZF? Maybe a few National deserters who don’t like Bridges will provide enough to get 5%?

The most you can pay is 30 cents in the dollar, a comparitively low amount. Until you are personnally affected you won't be complaining about the continuing reduction in Govt. services?
Especially when your years of hard labour takes effect on your body.

Yes it does and did.We know National would never take that risk and ask the hard questions, gutless and power mad with a sense of entitlement hangover that will be groundhog day ,like a mobius loop until their culture changes and they get with the times for the right reasons and not the selfish ones..
I applaud this govt in doing just asking the awkward question and the things that will still be changed some that will find themselves paying more tax for speculating etc. Good job. Give and receive.Adapt or perish.
