Some posters on here regularly state we have more crime than Australia.
In fact that's incorrect.

While both countries have similar crime rates NZ is one of the safest countries in the world.
However, you are significantly more likely to be murdered with a firearm, raped, or be a victim of violent crime in Australia rather than NZ.
Also although pay is higher in Australia, rents & property tend to be more expensive.
Now I know someone will immediately jump on some individual city or town comparison & expect the usual BS nonsense, but this is country V country overall.

NZ is a wonderful country to live & its a shame to see some people so eager to trash it at every opportunity.
Perhaps life has not worked out as they expected & they've found it hard to adjust.

I think most people would be comparing NZ to what they have known living here all their lives. I have witnessed a disintegration of the fabric of society brought about by Ardern's policies of divide and rule. Aspects of it have been caused by multiple failures across different governments, but none have accelerated it like Ardern. And she's only just getting started. Wait until her apartheid policies begin to bear fruit.

Bring in one nurse, she is married, they want to bring in 4 parents who have spent thier working life in another country. What have we gained?

Garbage.

Such a shxt hot country is NZ according to Ardern & Michael Woods - so hot that nobody wants to come here, resulting in disastrous shortages in healthcare, education and even shortage of bus drivers!

Meanwhile, Kris Faafoi is busy lobbying to make matters worse after screwing up immigration in the last 3 years.

Crime, the rising cost of living and housing affordability are just some reasons migrants are choosing to work in Australia or Canada, instead of New Zealand, a recruitment boss says.

He made the comments after attending a job fair in the United Kingdom and was unable to find one person interested in moving to New Zealand for work.

Business leaders told NZME that our country's immigration policies were cumbersome and there was an exodus of young people as they went on their OE or sought higher-paying opportunities.

Limited to 2,500 a year - oh wow!!!

And ….’You can apply to live in New Zealand permanently if you have a child who is a New Zealand citizen or resident. They must earn enough money and agree to sponsor you.’

And how many NZers are perennially & stubbornly on the jobseeker benefit?

In excess of 100,000!

And how many beneficiaries are born to sole parents who stay at home to breed in NZ each year?

The kindness of Ardern & her useless mob does not extend to students whose school is next to the motels for homeless in Rotorua.

And the Ministry of Education does not give a stuff.

Criminal & anti-social behaviour - engineered, arranged, encouraged & cheered on by this government. Law abiding citizens - get stuffed.

“A used tampon, knives, booze bottles, condoms and human faeces have all been dumped in a Christian school's grounds by people in Rotorua emergency housing motels, school leaders say.

The Seventh-day Adventist School students and staff have been threatened and had sexually explicit verbal abuse hurled at them. Children have been called a racial slur and challenged for fights simply because their school uniform is blue.”

"Take care of our children, take care of what they hear, take care of what they see, take care of what they feel, for how they grow will be the shape of Aotearoa."

[Balance]

And Ardern & her mob are spending $1m a DAY to inflict the homeless misery on law abiding citizens.

You cannot make this stuff up even if you try.

Hmmm....Christians....pillars of society. Not really Cindy's support base, so she won't give a toss.

Some people here only believe what they want to believe - no balance!
