And you chose to keep that a secret from all your forum buddies- you mean old bastardNo Mike. That milestone was ticked off probably 6 months ago now. I'll have to wait another 50 years or so to get polled again

Very ironic that a few days after asking who ever gets polled I received the call.And you chose to keep that a secret from all your forum buddies- you mean old bastard
Perhaps I was setup by one of the right wing forumers here. ( Note to self).Never trust these kients.
Merely a coincidence John. Best regards, Roy.Very ironic that a few days after asking who ever gets polled I received the call.

It took about 10 mins:
- Demographics - age, occupation, household, income, postcode
- Politics - who got my vote last time, who I'd vote today, are we on / off track
- Economy - am I better / worse off than this time last year, where prices & economy are going to go
- Nicotine - do I smoke / vape, am I aware of xyz products, etc
- TV - am I aware of xyz streaming platforms, which ones have I recently watched etc
- Banking - login and password (kidding)
Quite interesting that the politics and economy sections only comprised about 40% of the questions, and that they asked a bunch of stuff about vaping and streaming
I asked her why I was picked and the answer was that it was "completely random". They called me on my mobile
Destiny Church is bloody embarrassing with their carry on once again in Tauranga. Total speculation but feels like Brian has been paid off to sow division by someone out there

The only time I've taken a phone poll was when I happened to be at my parents home in the mid 00s (after I had already moved out), and thought it'd be a bit of fun for sh!ts & giggles.
Ended up going for at least 20 minutes (but felt double that) and was boring as hell, and I vowed never to say yes to another phone poll ever again (luckily never got a call on my own phone since then
)That was also only a couple of years after I declined a jury service due to a uni exam clash, and have never been called up since. Which is a shame cos I'd like to do that at least once even if it's similarly boring hah!
It's seriously bad, and anecdotally I've seen many small businesses closing, including sadly a lovely burmese restaurant in Glendene

Unfortunately itās a different recovery to others. This recovery is not based on immigration and house prices rising.
This is based on exports and sustainable housing and consumption.
Aucklands housing is oversupplied with low immigration. Things like cafes are struggling as thereās simply too many based on rampant immigration.
This is a hard but better recovery for the long term, as itās sustainably not based on growth (immigration and new housing).
Nationals about getting the fundamentals right. NZ first is about low immigration. Acts about productivity over growth. Were coming right and weāre set up for a very long period of a strong sustainable economy .

I feel our lefties disagree. How do they want the recovery to be driven?
Mass immigration and runaway house prices again? Is that what you wanted National to do?
Letās hear your alternative?

The business confidence survey is about business leaders believing the economic conditions will lead to easier trading.
This is obviously slightly different from how trading is today. A sustained period of low interest rates will lead to healthier demand and easier trading.
There are a few businesses going under at the moment. These things don't happen overnight. Businesses have had a sustained period of high interest rates, wage and cost inflation and, finally, subdued trading as those factors have taken effect.
It's really only after debts mount up over a number of subsequent years that the banks (or IRD) finally tap businesses up to go into receivership or liquidation.
So yeah, businesses going under and high business confidence are not mutually exclusive
