James Shaw nails it...indeed there's no better time than now. These Aussie banks are taking the piss both sides of the ditch. Albos making zero moves on the industry that values profit over people all laid out in a scathing royal commission draft report in...
Meanwhile Italy shocks banks with 40% windfall tax.
Bravo greens. The only party offering true social reform IMO, shaws launch speech nailed it with the view that there is no better time than now for reform. Calling out the lack of policy and use of fear by nact was something a half decent media should be ...
Yes he's well funded on that aspect as I read somewhere his backers have spent $50m in the last year on lawyers via those PACs.
Watch their media mates do SFA critical analysis of any angle you like whilst they run with rumours on what govt may do over GST because national said so. Pack of owned hacks.
Sam would know all about hitting things. People in glass houses....better have solid NDA's covering their prior behaviour.
Yes the same backing Israel enjoys as it continues to stick 2 fingers aloft to all and sundry including its own people.
What's in it for Vance ? Her job as it's been shown over the past few elections how owned these so called journos are. They push the DP cart along and sing for their supper on cue....we all gotta serve somebody.
They'll go as low as they possibly can to win the election. The cunliffe smear etc. Yet again RNZ shows it's no longer trustworthy.
Incarceration will become a growth industry under NACT. 3 strikes so successful last time was it so they'll bring it back. Was crushing cars mentioned? Or those other really effective policies from last time in govt. I laughed until the thought of Mitchell...
They'd prepared a dog whistle pack for their media mates to run with. Gotcha questions are for the govt and Mitchells response is classic nact 'we know best....' with zero evidence to back it up. Nationals media poodles rollover for a tummy tickle.
We also cant maintain the roads like we used to thanks to nationals rons taking up maintenance budgets without extra funding and increased tonnage on trucks destroying shoulders and corners. I live rurally and my district council admitted they work on ...
Add this to their stated abolishment of the Maori health authority if elected. Sad how this is playing out with their desperation to grab power and damm the consequences.
Likely the old boys n girls club at play with Stevie cultivating the sector leveraging his time when he was the minister. What a basket case that institution is.
Isn't the redeeming feature is he's no longer CEO of airnz ? This is his next job and I'm sure others are lined up should it not work out.
Just like the power generators, shift the dividend from public to private hands with a manufactured 'the sky will fall if we dont'. We can all see how that worked out with them shelling out 3bill more in dividends than profit I.e. loading up debt on ...
Doh I meant 2014 of course where state houses were sold off knowing what the situation in housing was.
By political advantage you mean it's gone for now but once elected it's business as usual. Like no assets sales in 2017 they'll say whatever to get elected then do as they please once in.
'farmer friends' is the national party pre key it's all about serving the top end and international capital since then IMO.
Didn't Lange and douglas build another that bolger /shipley dismantled ?...cant recall was overseas.
Good point as this lack of a bi-partisan approach burns money as nact go if labour then bad so it must be reversed. This ideological approach sees us with poor infrastructure, leaky buildings, flogged assets etc to name just a few of the outcomes.
Predictable and it's already ugly with the dog whistle media fanning the flames on various issues. Fraudster Damien grant going into bat for the hard done by wealthy the other week not being taxed any further etc...down to their last 6 investment ...
True that. Nationals political treatment of education, health and infrastructure rather than just fund it as population dictates puts us where we are. Key and blinglish did a lot of damage by not continuing to build and spend. Playing politics with kids ...
Don't let truth get in the way of spin. They assume the electorate are stupid so carry on Mr brown.
He lives on planet entitlement and is another useful tool in occupying airwaves to push the messages.
Wonder what his former medical peers think of his 'honesty' as a week's a long time in politics and what goes around comes around etc
Unlikely they'll feel the cash impact, they had 1.3B on hand in dec 22 and debt's never been an issue should it be required as the banks love rupert....they've made lots of money off his leveraging over the decades.
sadly yes, the cessation of the action on Crikey was because Dominion had done such a good job carefully wading through the fox network collecting emails and testimony it provided their lawyers with plenty of material. Crikey better be careful as clan ...
Leaky homes, national standards, wadeable waterways, asset sales, ecan, chch rebuild etc People just need a reminder of the blighted future the last 2 nat govts delivered with special mention of rortney and shonkys supershity clusterfk.
If the testimony Rupert gave is useable elsewhere it could go beyond the dominion settlement. Crikeys lawyers would be looking to leverage it as he effectively admitted they knew it was BS but didn't want to disappoint their viewing base with the truth.
Leadership NACT styles. This is an experienced mayor with previous C level roles supported by the best paid spinners like hooton. Serves as a warning for the general election if this is what experience delivers imagine greenhorns like rimmer and 7 houses ...
