the message that's got National under 30% is: if you're a student or disabled or a teacher or a nurse or a cop or a doctor or unemployed or homeless or nearing retirement or sick or on minimum wage or in a underpaid female dominated job... you're less important than a landlord
Clint Smith@ClintVSmith

make life harder for young people, who are already facing mass unemployment, by making them take on more debt (then complain they aren't starting families)✅️ take super away from 65 & 66 year olds, hitting the poor hardest✅️ reverse tax cuts for landlords & the rich? ❌️

I think it’s instructive to look at who unleashed that mob, and why. And why only one of the two parties exchanging slurs that night were hounded out of their job.

The Maiki Sherman lynch mob is frightening. This is the most hostile environment within which to be a political journalist I have known in my 55 years as a journo. The mob is ruling at the moment. They have tasted blood. Who will they turn on next?

@heroesatwork The relationship our current gvt has with our country and it's people is so toxic and abusive, they so clearly hate everything good about it, they choose to lead it to destroy it for a few bucks for themselves. The very worst of people

National has 11 million dollars to buy votes and billboards on every street corner. That's not democracy it's oligarchy. Tax wealth not work. stuff.co.nz/politics/36097…

So the OECD supports a capital gains tax and not an LNG facility and Willis calls it radical. Lol. The head prefect always knows better than the experts which is why we're in such a mess. stuff.co.nz/politics/36097…

yeah, I had solar put on two years ago and there was no red tape. one council inspection, which the installer organised. Cost was the only issue - and it's worth it: it'll have paid for itself in 6-7 years.
Jeremy@greytownbuilder

Genuinely baffled by this. We had solar installed a few months ago. Zero red tape. One inspection. Seymour quoted here saying up to seven inspections needed. Has his regulations ministry actually achieved anything or is it just more virtue signalling rnz.co.nz/news/political…

David Seymour claims solar inspections require 8 inspections & his new $64 million Ministry of Regulation will cut red tape on them FACT: Most if not all solar inspections only require 1 inspection rnz.co.nz/news/political…

@MaikiSherman So Maiki made a comment during drinks, after an alleged racial slur by Burr. All moved on. She then offends National by pursuing statements on Luxon's coup. National/NZ First linked Suit & Tie account then shopped the "story" to Ani O'Brien's blog. They got their scalp.

What's interesting is Maiki's statement confirms: 1. Lloyd Burr may have made the alleged racial slur to Maiki 2. Nicola Willis knew & despite it being closed a year ago, in the same week National complained about Maiki, its story was leaked by Suit & Tie & Ani O'Brien 1/2

What I’d say to you Kerre is, you need to take a leaf out of Mikes book. You must allow me to talk and you must not try to tell the truth, or as you will see I will use all my experience to talk over the top of you

It's as sad as the time Benjamin Doyle was driven to resign, and as sad as Chris Hipkins crying as he talked about his kids. What do these things have in common?

@NZNationalParty You continue to underestimate the intelligence of the electorate, at your peril. Keep up with the lies.
