Labour / NZ First Government

[Balance]

"We’ve updated our model and our estimates now show a chronic shortage of around 130,000 affordable homes. If things continue the way they are, the shortage will balloon to 150,000 this time next year."

Under Jacinda, housing crisis has nearly doubled in 2 years and will get worse.

Supporters of the "Let's Do This' leader, please explain.

Give me a Tryer over a Denier anyday.


I commend this Govt for at least trying.As they found out and as you know balance there are many roadblocks that do not make this easy, and we've posted quite alot on these redtapes. This will change and is, but there is no quick fix ,more incremental. BTW whats happened to your definitive property down turn statements, havnt we got 2 years to go according to the man on the ground?

Tryer?

No way she is a tryer.

Try BS artist.

And only star struck fools do not see her for who she really is.

Reneging on CGT and using BS initiatives* initially to bolster Kiwibuild numbers to hoodwink her admirers - good try, I guess but the rest of us are not fooled.

* Redesignating existing & already approved developments and bailing out developers.

The brutal truth is that NZ First opposed the CGT proposal. We can hardly blame the PM for that, blame the MMP system, perhaps.

Blame NZF - so easy and convenient on the singular biggest backdown and triple backflip on a Captain’s Call.

Not true of course.

Another “unbalanced” post.

A quote from the same article “However, the growth in the shortfall of housing in the last year was the lowest since 2014 (see chart below). So, things are getting worse, but at a better rate. Not really that comforting. But given the rising run-rate of building consents we expect to see a slightly smaller shortage next year.” The associated graph shows a different story to what you say.

The fresh air is always there to be enjoyed when appropriate.

Some of us have to work for a living.

And it actually does us a lot of good - we feel independent, confident, self-reliant, proud and above all, of value to our family and to society.

Unlike the freeloading deniers (who never worked a day in the real world) so aptly pointed out by JT (ironical, isn't it) but who are so good at BS.

And you think that is good news? That things are getting worse at a slower rate? Who is unbalanced?
