Someone needs to check if that’s hidden in the fine print of the agreement!
Winston has a love/ hate relationship with the media. Trumpist in the fact every time the media has a go at him it plays into his fighting against the system narrative that he himself plays up.
Tame probably got NZ First over the 5% with all the antiestablishment voters

The books must be in a much better space than the Nats have been painting for years. Charity donations and taxcuts all this while the major tax revenue gathering source never got to the launch pad
I smell a few porkies.
John Campbell: I hoped to be surprised - actually I'm amazed
What has Aotearoa's brand new coalition government promised to deliver?
John Campbell with a "comprehensive" take on the coalition agreement.
There are many, many charities and organisations that need distributed funding and all do a good job. Cherry picking implies favouritism, and could give the impression of corruption. I already have that impression of this coaltion anyway. They are corrupt.

Threatening the media and free speech. Who does that? Oh that's right, fascists and authoritarian corrupt governments. In other words, the far right. Which we have in spades
Yep, our economy is in fair shape. And ripe for channelling the wealth to the rich as we see happening right now.
Utterly corrupt.
Notice our forum policy and coalition agreement experts haven't opined on the smoke free legislation being repelled?
How could that even be possibly be contemplated other than parties connections to tobacco lobbyists money?
Just googling Mike King Gumboot Friday should give pause for thought on the charity. It's not very rosy.
Which other charities are embroiled in such negative public sentiment and get singled out for $6m of funding?

If it wasn't so retarded it would be hilarious...
The policy they just shelved was modelled to save the health system $1.3b over 20 years. Now we need to tax smokers to pay for tax cuts people barely even supported.

Smoking is a weird one, people stopped because it was eye-wateringly expensive and you could get vapes for next to nothing in comparison.
All the youth vape, rolling back the law to take nicotine out of them and you have to buy them from a special shop is just a sop to dairy owners, ironically they also want to get rid of disposable vapes and hammer anyone selling them to U18s - which was small shops solution to replacing the revenue lost by selling smokes. Not sure it will make a big a difference the veterans who have been smoking for years, now won’t stop, but not sure anyone is going to start picking them up. If your a teen used to vapes as a nicotine delivery system, smokes are pretty harsh in comparison.

The public service is going to despise this new government, ultimately they don’t have a choice, but any reforms are going to go as slow as humanly possible. Bill English will seem like Gandhi in comparison.
Seems like a last gasp of a dying view of the world, you can’t roll things back to 1996 and just pretend the public will welcome it. You’d hope people would wake up that there is nothing here for working people, and your letting landlords, business interests steal anything that isn’t nailed down but ultimately labour doing such a poor job has driven this outcome, whether it lasts 3 or 6 will depend entirely if a decent opposition can be found
