🤖 AI Summary

📝 Summary:

The thread centers on New Zealand's upcoming election, primarily debating the economic management and policy differences between the center-left Labour government and center-right National/ACT opposition. Key criticisms target Labour's fiscal stewardship, citing ballooning government expenditure #7#272, housing unaffordability, and unfulfilled promises like KiwiBuild and dental care expansion #16#12. A user #7 highlighted Labour's annual 9% spending growth versus 1.5% under previous governments, arguing this fueled inflation. National's tax-cut policy faced scrutiny over funding gaps and legality, with user #215 questioning Luxon's reliance on "trust me" assurances.
Leadership competence emerged as a critical theme, particularly in later posts. Luxon drew heavy criticism after a contentious interview where he struggled to defend policy details #194#199#211, while Willis faced backlash for her economic credentials. Hipkins garnered fleeting praise for articulation but was ultimately seen as representing poor governmental outcomes #45#119. A trusted user #308 presented expert economic analysis contradicting Treasury optimism. Infrastructure issues—like Wellington's water crisis and the dental school staffing shortage—were cited as examples of systemic mismanagement #235#12. Notable policy debates included road-user charges for EVs #220, immigration impacts on rents #299, and coalition scenarios involving NZ First #182#258. Early fringe discussions on candidates' rugby allegiances gave way to substantive policy critiques, culminating in grim Treasury forecasts discussed in posts #271#304#308. User #168 also revealed concerns about Labour rushing regulatory changes to entrench policies pre-election.

This particular person raised flags in 2016 after being a person of interest for 9 years previously according to the report. Wouldn’t say it’s only immigrants being offered poor with plenty of Kiwis paying ridiculous rent prices and poor conditions also. Interesting that it tends to be Indian people often exploiting other Indian people in these cases.
There is a Kiwi grifter in there too. Well known apparently. They have not been doing any checks...it is obvious.
 
Is that it?

Hold on to your hat mate, I heard he actually believes people who have abortions are murderers :oops:
Wow! A person who has beliefs and a politician?!?! Weirdo. Imagine him getting in to parliament and immediately trying to change those laws... oh wait... he has already ruled that out completely.

So you found the Lets go Warriors embarrassing. You must really be blushing red with the state of the economy, health, crime, education and the broken promises of the last 6 years. Now THAT is embarrassing

Touchy touchy....

I'm actually blushing that you think this disingenuous twit has the ability to fix the economy, health, crime, education.
Or you think no. 7 on the Act list is going to solve them?

The Nat policy that makes poor peoples lives worse is bad enough...
but lecherously trying to associate with a franchise you have no genuine connection with. Ewwww.

I'm blushing that there are people, and it looks like you are one of them, that seem to be happy to carry on the way we are. All good, I get it. You would rather a PM who says up the wahs than delivers anything. This current lot seem to be on the wahs. At least it looks like we will get the opportunity to see if this twit can fix anything. We already know the current people can't.

From my perspective I would love to think this twit would be able to fix the economy health education etc etc.
Judging by his right hand lady on Q & A on Sunday don't expect anything different.
She made a complete f up of her own taxation policy.
She has similar qualifications as Robertson basically and the right have been critical of him for the last few years.
If Luxon was not up to the job she's the next cab on the rank

I'd rather a leader who was at least a little bit genuine about their convictions and beliefs. Seems Luxon's strongest conviction is landlords should have it easy "Go on Warriors"

The prospect of a change of government seems to have deluded our right wing brethren - the quality of opposition is dire, just look at the Act Party list.

I think the left seem to be deluded in to thinking everything is ok. It's not like Labour has had to reshuffle the deck chairs as ministers jump ship or play up. The opposition quality may not be great but it's still much better than what is currently running the place. Don't be afraid of change mate. It will be ok. Not perfect, but definitely an improvement.

The prospect of a change in government seems to have the left getting personal which is understandable as they can't stand on their results.
