    Your hatred of Labour knows no bounds.
    Coincidence you think that everything he touches turns to crap?

    Kiwibuild, light rail and now if NZ is not careful, America’s Cup. Hell of a track record but Comrade Cindy 🐒 must love screw ups as he gets promoted for them!

    As yet we don't know what is actually happening but I really don't see how Labour caused it.
    You are beyond the pale - get a grip man.

    And of course you would have us believe that Kiwibuild is not a screw up by Labour?

    Gareth Morgan and Susan Guthrie's book The Big Kahuna details a very workable alternative tax system to include the Family home and other business assets. I guess any attempt to tax any traditional asset will always be viewed as political suicide. They are the only ones who propose something different to our patched up exploited current system.
    A quote attributed to Margaret Thatcher goes along the lines of
    "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money."

    Of course you'd like to thing that is a Labour screwup.
    Please explain how they did it.

    And therein lies the answer to why Comrade Cindy loves screw-ups and why the master of cock-ups Phil Twyford gets promoted.

    I've worked out that if the greens policy came into effect I would be paying the equivalent of 75% tax on my on my combined work work and investment income. Would have to sell up and move to Aust.

    Not a chance as Labour has already called unrealistic.

    But I guess if Greens hold the balance of power and ruthlessly exercise it, they may yet get their wish!

    C'mon dobs...give me a defence for the promotion of Phil Twyford. I put that challenge out there weeks ago, and not one coherent response yet. Do you accept he is out of his depth as a Minister? If not, show me the reasoning.
