An appropriate moniker might be "chatbot Luxon". His obscure "chat" never deals with the question asked. Very frustrating.
Good numbers. He only needs to resonate with 51% of the country. To resonate with 60% is great. Rather that than having to be a PM explaining why gangs in rural towns can dictate when kids can go to school or why 10000 complaints about antisocial behaviour...
I suspect Luxon is quietly very pleased the left are getting themselves so off on this statement. It speaks directly to the divisive society created under Aderns leadership and ably carried on by Hipkins. Bit it also talks to the ability to bring back the ...
Oh tsmithfield, don’t go spoiling everyone’s fun. People are getting off in their darkened room on what they thought was said rather than what actually was said. Let them be.
Are you thick or what? You will see I said “not just a reversal of Labours taxes …”
And unlike Luxon’s houses, how many times did he fail to disclose them?
Very simple answer - keep the 39% rate.
Great. I look forward to it.
No, it’s not just reversal of Labours new taxes. It’s also inflation adjustment to tax thresholds. Even the Greens get this with partial adjustments to their threshold. Labour … we’re just waiting on you now.
Labours tax policy, or complete lack there of, is the elephant in the IRD office. All other major parties now have a tax policy. Labour need to come clean on theirs so voters left and right can make a more informed decision as we move closer to the ...
Shouldn’t be too long before someone has a tax calculator up and running to see if you are better off with tax cuts under National or the Greens.
The Greens now have a clearly articulated tax policy to take to the election. This is to be welcomed. It should now flush Labour out to come clean on their tax policy too. Do they agree with their coalition partner or not?
Excellent news. The opportunities to flight climate with this policy are significant.
Our family straddle both professions with a registered teacher and a registered nurse and two kids respectively in primary and intermediate. Frankly teaching unions are holding you back in a 1970s mentality. We want we want. Screw the students needs. The ...
You sound completely oblivious to the growing public anger building around you. No worries. Hold out for a few short months and the new government will have a new offer for you to really boost pay … for some … based on performance
Yep, almost as if the PPTA has its hands over its ears and eyes closed shut, completely oblivious to what is going on in the world around them such that they can’t see the very generous offer in front of them “lah lah lah”
They’re being shorted but still no takers.
You mean the ones heated by gas, oil or electricity to grow out of season produce? And of course any of those are really cheap to create a temperate environment out of season.
Totally! But if you really really want tomatoes out of season, they come in tins. $1.09 at our local Coundown last week.
You do not make “tens of thousands annually” from the one off sale as a result of any gain from moving the bright line test. You could potentially make “tens of thousands annually “ from the re-establishment of interest deductibility - but of course only ...
Difference of course being, the houses have always been declared. also, assuming when you assert he @ stands to make tens of thousands annually” you know for a fact he has a mortgage on those properties?
No, he won’t resign or be sacked. We’ve already hit the bottom of the Cabinet talent barrel with Tenitti. [Please correct your e-mail address in your next comment, thanks. You might also want to tone down the increasing troll-level of your comments - ...
Go it. The rules around declaring financial interests, particularly when they relate to a Minister with direct portfolio responsibilities, are just there for funsies. Glad to have that sorted.
What National lies? Does Minster Woods own the shares - yes or no? How is this a National issue? So Minister Woods bought the shares as a teenager and they’re held in a Trust. What teenager has a trust? He thought he sold them? Until he didn’t. Now we are ...
Labour has set the bar so incredibly low but even their most competent MP can’t get over it. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/kiri-allan-gives-wrong-speech-on-freedom-camping-bill/6OMK7SXSSZGXRNDPS6QA3TA6RY/
Has he? Wouldn’t surprise me. Only thing where I’ve seen his name mentioned in the past while is in relation to being the last person to face the privileges committee … with the Minister of Education being the most recent.
Yep, ball in Labours court on this one. Rather than give a robust defence of the policy Wood and Hipkins over the weekend were all please come back to the table, we may take a look at it … they seem hardly convinced it’s a great deal. Maybe the better ...
After Labours last big hurrah before the election and they have zero, zilch, zip new to announce. Just re-announce old stuff. No more ideas. Out of steam. Out of puff. And in a few months out of office.
Yep, a speech for the economically illiterate and already been lampooned in the media. When you take a policy of a minor coalition partner and someone with 35 years to work as your example, ignore the far greater tax savings under that same party policy ...
Right. So your moan is you don’t think they pay you enough. Join the long line behind nurses, teachers, bus drivers, barristas etc … all providing a service people want. Failing that, if you’re non union, suggest you have a word with your employer directly...
If you’re not earning a living, bit of a stretch to say professional me thinks. Who’s employed to write poetry???
