Really??
Im quite sure I'm not the only one who had a rental property trashed during the Key National govt, but never thought for a moment to blame the government.
And despite giving the Police the culprits contact details, & Judith Collins being Minister of Police at the time, they did nothing because they were too overwhelmed with dealing with violent crime to bother with damage to property.
But the real kicker was the destruction of Landlords property & wealth overseen by the National govt with the meth contamination scam. Over $100 million was spent stripping & decontamination properties if the slightest trace was found, totally unnecessarily & despite scientific advice & even medical advice, because the National govt did not want to look soft on crime. It even had to be registered on the properties LIM report.
Was a total nightmare for landlords.
It was Phil Twyford who taking advice from Professor Gluckman & other experts who tossed out this reckless & incredibly damaging meth contamination policy.
Ross Bell, Exec Director of NZ Drug Foundation, slammed the out of control meth testing industry which caused so much damage to landlords & tenants & wondered why the National govt had let things get so out of control.
