The party's 'Affordable Kai' policy would also expand free school lunches and set up a publicly owned KiwiMart supermarket.

The issue i have with the policy of "Have a state owned supermarket", in my eyes, is that it dosent give a how. Its just an empty promise, thats what i like about the Greens policy is that it says How they plan on doing it. I take issue with a bunch of our political parties for just releasing policy without saying HOW they will achive it. Excersise for the reader i guess?

I do like the idea of breaking up the duopoly much in a similar fasion as Telecom, that sounds a bit better than "give me your things!" As proposed by the Greens policy.
