    Cap gains , thank winston. It may be back on the table in future with covid changing everything.

    Immigration. Who has restricted Overseas people buying and selling our houses etc etc. Who you gonna call .

    Cleaner rivers no easy quick fix,just ask the farmers on the canterbury plains farming intensively on 80 metres of gravel, who encouraged allowed that, yes the N word again yep national and nitrogen. Elsewhere is easier and is happening incrementally.
    Strange that you are so eager to be pleased with that list of abysmal failures.

    Pike River expenditure of tens of millions for no change in the status quo. No mention of the Light Rail either. Oh, and by the way, immigration and house purchases by foreign buyers are two separate things.

    It seems the Cindy dust has yet to shake from your eyes JT...perhaps it never will.

    Try harder, look for something positive, keep away from penny dreadful fake reality choices.See if you can make up a valid list of concerns and acknowledge the successes this country and govt are achieving.

    All those failures are "fake reality"? They're not a "valid list of concerns"?

    I'm not having to try hard. Those failures are there for all to see.

    Aren't you even a little bit disappointed that you were bullsh***ed to by saintly Cindy on the main planks of Labour's election campaign? I might have also added child poverty which pre-Covid was measurably worse. Will be worse still now.

    Now they must stand on fall on their own ability to deliver the solutions, surely!
    Pike River possibly caused by the free market policies of Douglas and carried on by Richardson is not something Labour should have pursued. GST was not an election policy but should have been introduced.
    Douglas destroyed the MOW with his free market policies. The MOW would have easily coped with
    Kiwibuild and light rail with one hand behind their back.

    Oh the irony. Being accused of everything you yourself are doing. It'd be funny if it wasn't so bizarre.

    Still blaming past decisions and governments.

    No wonder NZ makes bugger all progress.

    Like I wrote before, the half-blind leading the blind is a recipe for disaster - that's Kiwibuild. Don't blame others for failures.

    Time for you to buy that property now that the property market is going down. Bang on prediction, would you not agree that recovery will be in 2021?

    Predictions change with changes in assumptions.

    Grow up, JT - otherwise, you will be like David Clark or Clare Curran.
