That's just your opinion. What did they actually disagree with and why?

Social support and housing services were blindsided and not even consulted.
Willis desperately walking back saying "social housing tenants effectively won the lotto"
No positive transformational policy, nothing fixed - Another example of shitting on the vulnerable and making peoples life materially worse.

"Sell morals for votes" that's a good one.
Meanwhile donors can literally buy policy from the government.
Hypocritical numpty.

Personally, I don’t like it. I know there’s not the funding avaialble but I’d rather they waited until there was and then left the social housing percentage at 25% while increase the accommodation supplement as funds allowed.
As for the money going to landlords, unless the tenant has arranged for the supplement to go directly to the landlord, the tenants aren’t legally obligated to let the landlord know they’re receiving it. A landlord would have to be pretty low, IMO, to raise the rent because they’re guessing that the tentants has received an extra boost…. and,, unfortunately, some scum lords will.

This is a good idea. I know they earn less and then pay less but 30% of your income on rent is a lot of you don't earn much. Petrol is expensive enough already.

The bill was introduced word for word on my post.
The bill was to stop govt funding initiatives going to gangs and their associates.
All the parties voted for the bill and Greens, TPM voted against it.
Nothing more to say really, let the parliament votes speak for themselves.

I lean towards NZ First based on policy.
Peter’s tends to spend the year up to election saying all the right things then come election night goes MIA for the next 2 years.
Despite being in govt on and off for most of my life and helped oversee us going backwards, the wily old fax still manages to blame it on everyone else!
