If only there was some way to not vote for National and Act....I'm sure there must be some way to not fuck over the country and our future generations for short sighted, short term gains. We just need to put on our thinking caps and come up with something.

I get what you're saying, but have you considered that all problems the world is facing at the moment might be caused by the NZ Labour Party?

I do believe that Germany's housing crisis was deliberately caused by Chris Hipknis himself.

Yes, he took the lesson's learnt from creating Ireland's housing crisis and implemented much "improved" policies upon the German's too. And that was while he was very busy tanking the British economy by forcing them out of the European Union.

I'm glad you understand the reason we need change.

Labour governing alone have been weak tea. We all want a change of government. I'm just hoping enough of the people who want wealth taxes, guaranteed minimum income, and properly funded public services, turn up to vote in sufficient numbers to get the change of government we actually need. Rather than the one that wants to drag the country back to the late 1980s/ early 1990s, like the past few decades never happened...
