Yes totally agree Anne. I am happy with Michael or Kiri as deputy and I really do want to see Chris Hipkins bring all of us on the left together to fight what will be the horror show of National -ACT dictatorship.

Well written Weka and very good analysis.

We can’t entirely blame rich pricks for the piddling amounts of tax they pay – politicians relying on big corporate donations have seen to it that the unearned incomes and wealth of this elite are barely touched by tax. With their fat wallets and easy ...
Those communities don't get to look over their million dollar view and sip wine eh Mickey !
