At least we will have minimum wage at $50 hr by then! that's 100 grand a year
Jacinda would of called 5 million dollar homes, affordable homes!
It's actually madness eh. And you look around and see how much land there is (outside the main centres)
Think of it this way.... Mark Hotchin's old mansion on Paritai Drive is worth an estimated $35-45 million in today's money. If prices increased 5 times in the next 22 years, that place would be worth between $175-225 million.I remember when the mental image of a million dollar home used to be a giant mansion
Good times!
It’s all relative to new build costs.
Thank you David Seymour

Would you have been happy if she had used the Germany phrase Endlösung der Judenfrage because many Jews consider From the River to The Sea as the total destruction of the state of Israel and the Jewish people as the Germans meant by the Final Solution meant getting rid of the Jews from Europe.
I would have been happy if if Seymour expended that same energy condemning the violent brutality of what's been happening. But he's made no comment except attacking another MP.Would you have been happy if she had used the Germany phrase Endlösung der Judenfrage because many Jews consider From the River to The Sea as the total destruction of the state of Israel and the Jewish people as the Germans meant by the Final Solution meant getting rid of the Jews from Europe.
Perhaps she should have investigated the origin of the phrase before she used it and not tried to defend herself by saying a Jewish leader had used it before him when the context he was using was quoting a verse from the Torah which talks about water flowing from the Jordan river to the sea.
It's a phrase which both Hamas and Zionists use in their claims over the land of Israel/Palestine. The context and the intent is key.
“Hamas rejects any alternative to the full and complete liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea,” says the organisation’s 2017 constitution.
The founding charter of Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party states: “Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”
‘From the river to the sea’: where does the slogan come from and what does it mean?

Inruin is dropping laughing emojis like the glib man child he is.
So, since she was at a pro-Palestine rally, what context do you think she meant? Especially, when you consider the view she has continuously used that the state of Israel shouldn’t exist and that things return back to 1948. The Greens party policy is that they want “an end to Israeli occupation of Palestinian Territories”…. but all of Israel was Palestinian Territory prior to 1948 meaning they (and she) is advocating for the end of Israel.The article itself references that the phrase can be interrupted numerous ways...
Really quite odd for a vocal proponent of free speech to be bothered by... while showing absolutely no concern on the topic.

I found this article and particular quote interesting
‘From the river to the sea’: What does the Palestinian slogan really mean?
Critics have called its use anti-Semitic amid Israel’s war on Gaza. But the slogan has more complex roots.www.aljazeera.com
“It’s important to remember this chant is in English and it doesn’t rhyme in Arabic, it is used in demonstrations in Western countries,” he said. “The controversy has been fabricated to prevent solidarity in the West with the Palestinians.”
Glad you bought up children being slaughtered. Perhaps Chloe could be more vociferous about what is happening in her own backyard with yet another infant killed. Eerily silent...The article itself references that the phrase can be interrupted numerous ways...
