Act are an abomination, putting the Tea Party, Jim Crow, NRA gun loving copy cat maleficence aside all they have ever achieved is getting legislation through that provides some lawful assistance with voluntary euthanasia and a pitiful three strike lock em ...
Oh yes....I have known Muriel Newman and her husband Frank since the 80's, they typify the 'I'm alright Jack, stuff you' mentality, get rich at anyone else's expense, openly anti Maori and derisive of anything not in the Act bible of libertarian ...
Nicola Willis does not have a finance plan, any plan even a bad plan....Liz Truss at least had one albeit one that was never going to work. Tax cuts are just pork barrel politics in action. Willis is just a small bit player with an almost naive religious ...
"narcissists and psychopaths......." Sums up the current excuse for a govt exactly......... Whenever I look at the govt benches I see SS uniforms, Brown shirts and MAGA caps.......the Speaker of the house is sergeant Shultz.....Luxon is colonel Klink, ...
Most likely one of Nicola's 'wasteful spending' cut backs.......
Act and NZ First are in that bed with National........getting very messy and smelly that bed is..........
"So going forward how does not recovering from that idiocy make you feel at this moment Mr Guyton......"

"Are we gonna blame the voters now…for their understandable reaction to those broken promises/that non-delivery..? Please enlighten us with a list of all "those" broken promises and non deliveries........ As a famous Tory politician once said: “The best ...
"there is reluctance to blame themselves for their choice (that is admit error)....." At least 38% of the current MMP electorate will never admit any 'error' rather they will just lurch from one pork barrel of promises to the next. That's why we now have a...
Or maybe just the perfect incarnation of the snake oil salesman from a bygone era.....
Like the circuses of yesterday that paraded freaks in various forms, Brian Tamaki is certainly entertainment of the bizarre nature.......

Neighbours lettuce on her windowsill still looking fresher than Luxon and the coalition of chaos........
One of the Prime Ministers we never had...............
Neighbours lettuce on her windowsill is looking good.........
My neighbour put a lettuce on her windowsill....she says it will last longer than Luxon...
Again......changing the mindset from a housing speculation industry to home ownership will have the desired effect of making mega landlords redundant. Why....because being a mega landlord would no longer be a viable business.
All of the above including pandering to core voter base and picking up a few from the fringes......you know, sunburnt neck, bloke, blokesses, ute, gun, dog, mobile phone, self employed un-contractable wannabe......vote for a fence post with a blue rosette ...
Like they did when Key was at the helm with the cheapo trains and rolling stock from China...... along with gutting the Hillside Engineering......but wait...saved us 25% on building them here....wonder what ever happened to that 25%..... When will New ...
Best to just kill off the speculative investment mindset in housing altogether and focus on houses being homes.
Luxon and some of his followers wouldn't know a deficit if they tripped over one.....heh....heh....heh....
Ring fenced....good idea.. And yes it does address the other drivers of high house prices...aside from unplanned global influences such as wars, financial crises and pandemics affecting material supply, removing the investment/industry aspect from housing ...
Here's a go figure.....the mortgage interest deductibility for rental properties is approx $3b over three years for landlords......... Instead of fueling housing as an investment industry the govt could instead promote and foster home ownership. With that ...
I made the above comment in response to todays Morning Report where Dann was chatting with Luxon about tax cuts for landlords, rents, school lunches and the general pace of anti democratic 'urgent' repealing of legislation through parliament. https://www....
The demise in the quality of politicians and specifically this current poor excuse for a govt is only matched by the demise in the quality of the investigative powers of the media. Listening to Morning Report is becoming painful. Not only is the format in ...
