The counter factual is very simple. National already had house prices stabilising, and the number of consents rising. Just ask Mickey https://thestandard.org.nz/apparently-labour-was-to-blame-for-the-global-financial-crisis/.
Baba Yaga Oh go away you troll. No truth in that!!
One that will not build a single additional home than would have been built anyway. A ghost ballot by a ghost government.
The 'liar' accusation is up their with the 'do you still beat your wife' question. It is generally thrown around to shut down debate, a fairly common leftist tactic.
Is that sarcasm, or an attempt to better Labour's racism?
Kiwibuild will not deliver a single extra house than would have been built anyway. Not a single one.
In a perverse way it is enjoyable. It is entertaining to witness the incompetence, the dishonesty, the arrogance of such a young government.
National were chosen by the people of NZ to govern on 3 consecutive occasions, with their policy prescription well communicated. The accidental government we have today is a government of the 7%, and the shambolic nature of its management obvious to all ...
Which part didn't you understand? The idea that there could be a review of NCEA without adequate involvement of principals? http://www.newstalkzb.co.nz/news/education/ncea-review-under-fire-principals-give-it-a-failing-grade/
I did.

"Had the Gnats retained the support that kept Key’s paws in the cashbox they’d still be in government." Actually National's support remained remarkably high in 2017, higher than Labours. But their support partners collapsed, as will Labour's. Being saddled...

Typical Baba Yaga nonsense. Had the Gnats retained ...
Well to be fair, the Democrats were the party of slavery.
Roy, when National won office in 2008, the country was already heading into recession before the full impacts of the GFC. We had high interest rates, high inflation, and Treasury were forecasting years of deficits into the future. National successfully ...
Careful, or I'll start charging.
Typical left wing argument. The nats put policies like partial privatisation front and centre and still got re-elected. Labour are an accidental government, with no mandate beyond Mr 7%. But it is entertaining.
"...and that lasted 3 terms" "And he got his unpopular agendas through. " Spot the inconsistency.
Give them time to do what? To get even worse?

The denial and outright blindness to reality here is thick. JA is overseeing a government that is shaking with incompetence, dishonesty and arrogance. Every day it seems there are new revelations that her government has plumbed new depths. A minister ...
Projecting much baba yaga. All opinion, no substance.
Actually Davis hides behind TeReo to disguise his abject ignorance.
It would make very little difference whether he had read the report or not. The government had a significant body of material that warned them of the negative consequences of their oil and gas decision, but they made it anyway. Arrogance is becoming a key ...
"Merchants and financial heads and bankers aren’t wealth creators." Actually, they are. They pay tax, spend their income/wealth, which incurs GST and creates jobs. But I could counter with "nor are welfare bludgers". See I can do it too. " I understand the...
"The “wealth creators” do not pay the same GST..." No, they pay a lot more, because they have more disposable income. "The “wealth creators” employ “good” accountants to make sure that they pay as little tax as possible." You clearly have little experience...
...they're coming out the woodwork today...
I guess Baba Yaga doesn't realise that 63.2% of all statistics are made up on the spot
