Right now, Labour is strongly implying that John Key has been getting up to dodgy stuff with trusts and tax avoidance. They've got no proof of any wrong doing, not even a shred. They're demanding Key release his tax records and implying that he's got something to hide if he doesn't. Labour is trying to conflate Key and therefore National with the Panama Papers. John Key is somehow responsible for everything, because Fuck John Key, right? This shit doesn't work. Labour is the party of negativity and that just doesn't wash with New Zealander's general sense of optimism.

Rich people did some things in Panama.
Some of the things in Panama involved trusts. Some of the things in Panama that involved trusts were schemes designed to minimise tax. John Key is rich. Therefore John Key is doing something in Panama involving trusts to minimise tax. John Key is the Prime Minister. Therefore John Key is personally changing the laws of New Zealand in order to blah blah Panama involving trusts blah blah tax blah blah new world order. Therefore, fuck John Key. |

Remember the Government's announcement of the formation of the Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary? How we were all "yay, environment, yay, oceans"?
Of course, since the Government announced it, Labour has to now be against it. Because Labour. http://m.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/arti...ectid=11621260 |

Govt: "We want to mine this part of the ocean floor"
Opposition: "Mining the ocean floor is bad! Environment!" Govt: "We want to protect this part of the ocean" Opposition: "Protecting the oceans is bad! Wait, we can't say that, um.. uh.. There was no consultation! The process is wrong! Protecting the oceans is ba[internal turmoil boils over] FFS FUCK JOHN KEY" (imo mining the ocean floor is bad, so is over fishing) Last edited by pxpx : 15th April 2016 at 09:48. |

They're being all charlie-brown up in that place. That they're trying to take a neutral stand IMO makes them look worse - they'd be better off going "You know? No. No National, that's a bad idea and here's why, you need to address these points" instead of going "We're not saying we're withdrawing support for this, but there's other things to consider"

I don't really give a toss. It's all academic. Winston would've found his way into parliament anyway.

The thing is, Winston was already in parliament. It's just that he got voted into the Northland electorate after the election.

One other thing I'll point out is that as annoying an old prick as Winston is, and despite him being full of shit so often, he is these days often a more rational voice than many in Labour or the Greens.
And that's scary.

Unless you are pointing out that someone in Northland likes rubbing feet. I'm unaware of the full details of that case and had been led to believe from another website that the fellow from Northland is an entertainer who had been born in the 70's, hence my confusion.

Why? Is the status quo being reported as if its news? Rather than a genuine shift in the ownership of social resources, which might actually be newsworthy.

"82.8% of homes in Hamilton bought by people outside of Auckland"
Hamilton homes being bought by Aucklanders was near 25% this time last year. That figure's actually gone down. It's not news.

That "high quality, compact city" vision from Len and his army of town-planners has really worked out great!

How many NZers outside of Auckland are buying Auckland houses? Probably a lot. It's not just chinks creating demand in Auckland, it's other people in country moving to the big city for work.

One of the problems is that just increasing supply only makes more houses available for investors.

This video is a great metaphor for Andrew Little leading the Labour party.
Everything about it is so apt. Watch as he drives head on into floodwaters with no idea of what he is getting himself into. "Why are you doing that? Why are you doing that?! Ugh. God...da...” Watch him flail as he struggles to understand his predicament. "DUDE, you gotta get out of the car. You gotta get out!" “What do I do?” He's out of his depth at this point. "SWIM. LEAVE THE CAR. SWIM." The strategy direction isn't clear to him despite plenty of straightforward advice from the sidelines. “Stay in the car?” "SWIM. SWIM. LEAVE THE CAR. SWIM." Courtesy

I think its fair enough for the question to be asked.
Maybe he could have tried to find out more in private first to get anymore info. But a large donation to a party, which then awards them with a contract and now are spending large sums of money doing up the place, that can easily be viewed as dodgy |

I like it how the KDS sufferers, like Gould, could never fathom the possibility that the Scenic Hotel Group, just might have been, *gasp*, the most suitable company for the contract?
Who's to say the losers of the contract didn't also donate to National? You wouldn't hear about that... |

It's not a delusion that somehow a resort in Niue has trumped community health services in NZ in the competition for tax payer funding.
It's not a delusion that National are muzzling organisations that raise issues of national significance that are inconvenient to the party. The Problem Gambling Foundation and Fish & Game being the most clear examples. And yet the default stance seems to be National is completely on the up and up. The narrative seems to be stuck on an ineffective opposition.
