You're not going to get an answer from him, so I'll help you. Yes. He has been on their payroll for the last three years.

What ! Bad sportsmanship.

Like Tyson biting Holyfield's ear, or Trevor Chappell's underarm bowl,

posting specifically false information about another poster on here, because you disagree with them, is a low blow.

If you have any integrity, own up & apologise.

S
Immigration is one area - why do doctors and nurses have to wait for residency? Just approve the lot right now. What is there to think about?

Because that will raise the IQ of the country and increase the inequality inherent with the brown population.

Better to breed more beneficiaries so everyone gets dragged down.

Then, there's a totally incompetent minister, Kris Faafoi, who has gone into hiding because he has no idea what he is doing and is a token brown minister picked for his color, not ability.

I kind of caused that Blue Skies. I had missed dobby41's post declaring his position. I have apologised to dobby41. I guess fungus missed it too.

As I have said many times - 10,000 homes a year was never going to happen!
Landlords were going to put the rents up anyway - because they could. A purely capitalist response as you'd expect. (There are very few socialist landlords from where I sit.)

You write that but Cindy came into power with exactly that promise - and it's something Labour had been working on for years before 2017.

Why is it good enough to promise but also, ok NOT to deliver and instead, create a housing disaster?

Cheers Jonu, appreciate that.

Something I was extremely disappointed about recently was the story around the Welsh GP Dr Harding Richards who left NZ due to his residency application being left in limbo, forcing an Otaki Medical Practice to close its doors to any new patients and struggling to cope with an extra workload of over 1,350 patients.

And the inexplicable refusal of Twyford or Faafoi to intervene & help in the streamlining of his immigration application despite repeated pleas from the Medical Practice the chances of finding any NZ doctor to replace him was zero.

Apart from everything else, in the midst of a Covid pandemic it seems inexcusable for a minister to reject requests for some assistance with this when the regions are crying out for GP's esp younger ones in their mid 30's.
