Sounds like it would come in useful for the bloodletting on the other side. right now they rise not based on talent but who can threaten/leak the best.

Pretty good speech from Peeni Henare
“The Leader of the Opposition doesn’t understand our world, in his own words, he doesn’t see our world. He may not see us. He may not value our contribution. But we see him. Māori see him. We see what weakness looks like.”

Kiwibuild, anyone?
Promised & campaigned, Cindy did, on building 800 houses a month by now.
Instead, extraordinary BS Cindy has delivered an average of 39 houses a month! 🤣🤣🤣
Less than 5% of what she promised! 🤪
Takes a special kind of shameless buffoon to deliver such a failure!🐒🙈

Politicians religiously over-promise and under-deliver. But that's not what grates/worries me, it's the sheer scale of the miss, the complete lack of commercial realism in setting the various targets in the first place and the continued hubris of believing they've actually done a good job.

There were no extra workers or spare capacity in the construction sector (maybe there is now). The 'keynesian' stimulus from the chch rebuild and insurance income from overseas did have some interesting effects.

Straight from the PM's mouth to NY Times : "“I’ve been given so many, it’d be quite hard to come up with a new one,” she said, laughing. “Back in the early days of my political career, I was called Socialist Cindy."

And there are fools out there who actually swallow whole that it's not the fault of Cindy & her incompetents that they failed to deliver.
Amazing how as they wallow in BS, they are led to believe it's star dust.

Have you ever, for one minute, stopped and looked in the mirror during one of your rants, and wondered if perhaps it is you with stardust in your eyes? Seriously Balance - you are starting to sound like a raving lunatic.
