Please link again - did Ardern claim 1000 a week on a property she owned and had recently bought mortgage free?
Oh and while you're at it - please provide concrete actual fact about your insinuations around Grant Robertson. Still waiting.

Just because you don't like National, don't act like Labour haven't been in the cookie jar!
I don't see a huge issue with this. He needs an electorate office, and is the PM. The taxpayer will be footing a rental bill regardless. The question is whether the rent is too much. Parliamentary Services requires a market review of each rental agreement, and has approved it. The main issue is that it is a large office.
It is irrelevant that he bought it mortgage free, and during the housing crisis

Since one report was prepared for Ardern and the other for Hipkins, it might reflect that Toni has more expensive tastes than Clark
Get rid of any "heritage" considerations, then bowl it, and build one in its place with $3m. Could even spend $10m for a future-proof amazing PM residence that hosts dignataries

Or turn it back to a dentistry school again.... would be more beneficial to the country.
My house has become a echo chamber! Just me and my thoughts!Context is everything. Your context seems to be an echo chamber
There seems to be an unwillingness to recognise that there’s no questioning the entitlement, but a question of morally right when having the means to not burden the taxpayer with the expenses and while being outspoken on no free rides for anyone. John key was politically aware enough to realise the look of collecting a prime ministers salary while asking others rein in spending and big money to spend on an earthquake rebuild wasn’t a good look but unfortunately was also powerless to stop the mp pay rises that were placed upon them through his leadership. There seems to also be an attempt to turn the storyline to an envy on his wealth which seems odd considering posts on here suggest people have an issue with all parties being able to do this which I agree withJust because you don't like National, don't act like Labour haven't been in the cookie jar!

I have a feeling, based on some of their other mind boggling housing costs and debt burden that they do most of the budget estimating themselves.

There’s also the fact that although it’s a residence, because of it’s status as the PM’s house and can have heads of state staying there, it doesn’t fall under the residential earthquake requirements of the building code but the much stricter ones for hotels, etc.
It’s a worry when students renting a house that meets the healthy homes standards are in a drier and warmer place than what is essentially our country’s most expensive state house…. that neither of our last two PM’s have wanted to live in.
If wonder if it would be better if it was sold and a purpose built residence constructed.

Looks like it’s getting closer to the time for FHB’s to jump on to the short interest rates with ASB and ANZ dropping some of their interest rates today. Velocity, who provide valuations to banks (and hopefully more accurate than Peter Thompson) are saying that their data is pointing to Auckland’s property markets getting back to the highs of 2022 post-COVID peaks is the last quarter of 2026.
