Never ever give up your duty, which is to vote against the worst party - which is presumably why you voted National this time.

Echos the sentiments of many of the 93% who didn't vote for NZF - myself included. So much for the virtues of MMP!

NZ central bank was the the pioneer of the inflation-targeting regime. Inflation target has become the global economic orthodoxy.
now Jacinda and Winston are going to change all that .....and probably stuff the country up in the process
But then some will say things need to change ....and we'll look look back in 30 years time and say heck that Jacinda was one smart cookie.

Where was it going to be published? Who wrote it? Who pulled it? Why? There's every reason to be sceptical about stories involving politicians - even plonkers like Winston.
I note now he's denying he claimed one or some of his board would be held up because of a funeral. That adds to the result on the12th that 'the media made up', as well as denying he ever claimed to have bottom lines.
This is the man who's 'going to keep them honest'.

I don't know what a conservative is. I only know I'm not one.
