The shortage of rental properties has started to reverse in places so anyone who respects property and has a job can get a rental property now, clearing the emergency housing out for actual emergency situations..

If Kiwibuild had worked like the Miracle of Harvard promised we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
Ps, My grand daughter has "The Book".
I'm hoping to get a sneaky look and see if Bruce was right about Clarke after all.

On the day the govt increased funding to GPs by a massive 13.89 per cent, Labours social media says this:
The quality of the lefts propaganda indicates their voters are imbeciles.

Easy to fire bullets @wizard of Tauranga but what was in the announcement that was designed to hold GP fees?
Even the Minister tried to sell it as reducing waiting times
FYI the cost of a visit at the practice I go to has increased from $52 to $72.50 in the last 12 months and the waiting time to get an appointment is +/- 7 days

Most doctors have closed to new patients in Tauranga. That was Labour GP legacy…
A bit idiotic to counter a big funding increase with an emotive scare tactic ‘you will pay more’. Just doesn’t make sense.
Just the other day Labour was blaming National for butter going up a fortune. 1 - National doesn’t control the price of butter 2 - overall inflation is what’s important which is way lower than under Labour.
Labours social media team are currently absolute imbeciles, spreading misinformation.

At my practice, I pay $52 and can get an appointment tomorrow if I wish. Do you think it's indicative of area, Like provincial versus urban?

I only go for medical treatment in the back of an ambulance…
Actually when I shot a nail through my finger I took myself to the ED that time as well… but pulled it out myself when they said they would have to give 3 pain killers injections which sounded more holes than the nail

You're young obviously. As we age there are more issues that appear,
Warriors PTSD is a big one. Thought I was over it and my councilor could be redundant but after last weekend I need an additional appointment

I’ve decided when I turn 50 I will start going for checkups and buy one of those old people, days of the week, pill boxes

Didn’t see any answer to the question in your response but perhaps I missed it (again)

Sorry, thought it was a rhetorical question about the largest GP funding boost in New Zealand’s history:
Is that the best you can do?
You shot an arrow in your first post but missed the target completely (IMO)

As per my previous, do you think the disparity is between Urban and Provincial?

Show me anywhere that supports ‘because of National a GP visit could soon cost $100’.
I mean why even go there. Surely there’s other areas to attack National or maybe announce what they would actually do around GP’s?
When your promotion is focused on the opposition instead of yourself it never ends well.
Buy a personal BP monitor and one of those finger blood oxygen monitor thingies. Don't need the Doc for much else unless the tremors get so bad you can't hold a glass and the best advice I can give is to smoke the ones with the filters.I’ve decided when I turn 50 I will start going for checkups and buy one of those old people, days of the week, pill boxes

I’ve heard it’s also around places with aged populations who require higher quantity of care (eg Tauranga) where funding is based on an average persons need.
No
I’m in urban Auckland and a fellow resident who goes to another urban practice pays approximately $40.
Greed comes into it
