You should have no problem then working out the commodities missing with the current Govt talent pool ;)

Yes it's quite apparent isn't it.
So why isn't National killing them in the polls?
It's three main reasons imo.
1) They to lack the skills required
2) They lack integrity and backflip more often than an Olympic gymnast.
And 3) Luxon for reasons outlined in point 2.
Quite frankly quality of NZ's politicians across either side of the divide is at modern time lows imo, well maybe not quite, it might have improved marginally since Symin & Paula flew the coop & Rude Jude was sent to her room to fester.
So why is the Aussie economy stronger, more resilient than NZ ?
Current Govt policies have done nothing to strengthen the economic base to produce improved productivity ..
Too much looking over the fence, looking at ones own navel and trying to work out how the hair around Robbo's belly button can be multiplied up to twice the number before without doing anything ? ;)
It doesn't come out of dreaming about it, hiking up tax or reducing deductions on certain sectors over night to plug gaps
The current lot are too busy staring at their navels and missing the wider picture, then rushing to try to fill gaps or finding the money box empty when it looks like it's all turning to sh*t
Every Labour Govt seems to foster and encourage flight of capital into one sector niche or quirk .. hardly good for any economy.
What was it this time ? .. 'Everyone should get into Residential Real Estate' before Labour turned around and knifed some, including new participants in that sector :)
It seems that the shallow level of Labour Financial and other talent have a lot to do with it
Then when following is not strong enough - the cause prostitutes itself to other minorities & factions to get in or keep power, with the resultant factions clashing or feigning representing all :)
Hardly a good recipe for long term prosperity ;)
Labour certainly know very well how to shoot themselves in both feet, produce an economic shambles and flush the previously accrued prosperity up against the wall when things start wobbling .. eventually no amount of spin saves the cause ;)
What is the tally of High Cost "Consultants" so far in the most recent Labour terms to cover for the void of talent within the ship ? ;)
In any other circles would a ship without the required paid qualified & able talent be allowed to set sail ? :)

Your time might be near soon - when the gates open up to 'Other pr!cks' ;)
NZTX hardly an economic shambles. We still have a very strong labour market, some of the lowest Government debt in the OECD.
Australia is very fortunate to have such rich resources and they also have scale. Many Kiwis are leaving for higher wages, imagine how many more Kiwis would have left if Labour hadn't lifted the minimum wage.
You avoided the question.
If what you say about Labour is true, why isn't National romping to victory in the polls?
I think we need change as well, however I'm wondering if the medicine will be worse than the illness.
That's okay .. Labour Ministerial Talent appears to be resembling toilet paper
The squares of any use have been long pulled out from the bunch gone
The remaining ones keep coming up for rinse dry and repeat the same old
How many have gone through the Crisis Treatment Process since Nash fell on his sword ? ;)
How many have landed in it and are still being washed or dried ?
The thicker ones probably needing a longer series of drying after 3 water cycles ;)
Chippie might need a new Sausage Roll recipe to make the process faster, easier and removes the marks better ;)
Of course it's an economic shambles .. dont need to look far on cyclone effort to work out the extent of
Govt fix it there .. A budget that wasn't one, ignore middle NZ .. Robbo fearful of Orr-Some's mysterious
inflationary monsters and deficits all over the place .. No formulas for growth or anything positive in it
ie ignore what is generating the taxes .. and in Election Year too
NZ has resources .. Labour / Greens simply turn their backs on them and face the opposite direction
You might be looking at the wrong polls or too early.. A few more months of the sort of incompetence
and stab thy classmates in Govt pews and ongoing increasing pain around greater NZ may well seal
fate for an unfortunate Govt of Spin, BS & excuses .. and not before time :)
