    Amazing that Labour can just continue to offer more and more bribes, and nobody questions 'the numbers'. The Greens were going to fund it with a wealth tax, but with Labour it's just Robbo and his gigantic slush fund made up of borrowed dosh.

    20 bucks a week for $14b, or free preventative dental care for $400m.

    So Labour are going to tax foreign buyers and overseas gambling concerns to fund this are they red panda?

    How are they paying for free dental care for the under 30's red panda? What are 'the numbers'?

    Well if they increase the minimum wage by a dollar again that's easily worth $400m in income tax/GST.

    Epic trolling from you, you'll be pouring yourself a nice chardonnay this afternoon and celebrating yet more 'unfunded socialism'.

    Someone's going to pay for dental care regardless... you can stop future $6k operations with $200 checkups... bargain.

    Someone's going to pay for an increasing range of things.....the taxpayer. And the taxpayer has no hope of covering it, so it's up to 'Robbo's magic money tree' (borrowing).

    It's no Robbo paying the minimum wage is it, it's increasingly stretched businesses - many of them small businesses.

    You still haven't told us where the $14b is coming from.

    No right to criticise labour when that's out there.

    Here's Tova O'Briens sh*t take....'a lot of voters' will have the calculators out figuring out which party will give them the most 'bang for buck'.

    So in other words, who can loot the economy the most & fleece lenders to the government the most.

    Quite sickening really: she calls it a 'contest of policy', but it's the Left buying an election & the right having no choice but to play the same game.

    'Great'!

    'The maths a lot of voters will be calculating now is which major party will give them more bang for buck.

    We have a real contest of policy now. That’s great for all voters - the politicians are desperate to please you and win you over.

    National's campaign launch is tomorrow, your move Christopher Luxon.'
