Serial propagandists or paid trolls?
12,000 new state houses built by Labour?
Only a paid troll would write such blatant lie and Labour garbage.
How about the truth - 350% increase in state housing waiting list. 380% increase in families living in cars.

Viewing TV3 now - Hipkins being interviewed by Bridges.
He looks like death warmed up.
Not surprising given the circumstances but they should have at least been frugal with the make up as he has too much powder on. Too much covering up - but that’s Labour through & through.
Asked about David Parker’s exit from the revenue portfolio, Hipkins ducked, dived and basically, lied. He refused to link Parker’s exit with his wealth tax ditching - Parker resigning from the revenue portfolio a week before Labour announces its election year tax and revenue policy.
What a shambles.
A government which cannot manage itself but wants to convince NZers that it can govern the country.

Daytr has some sort of agenda going here. This is a discussion forum, the average post literally takes seconds to write, yet one person is saying that if I want to come here and discuss politics then that should be frowned upon. Isn’t how I choose to spend my time my business? Right now, there is an awful lot to discuss. We have an imploding government & the emergence of radical political parties with radical separatist agendas. IMO, this election is pivotal and a possible turning point in our nations history….surely that is worth discussing? We don’t all have to agree with your world view Daytr.
I think Labour have to be very careful about how they seek to minimise Kiri Allen’s actions. On the one hand they say they are ‘inexcusable’, on the other they continue to offer up excuses. And the public are listening. A community leader from Tologa Bay said on RNZ this morning “that could be any one of us”. Given the amount of work pressure and mental health issues out in the community at the moment, this could indicate that their is an awful lot of drink driving that is going on at the moment that the police are not picking up on. And that is serious. We see TV messaging that no matter your level of inebriation, what you must absolutely not do is drive - otherwise you are ‘a bloody idiot’. Human lives are literally at stake. We cannot send a message that seemingly responsible members of society can elect to ignore this rule if they have work pressures, a personal crisis, or mental health issues. Because most people face one or other of these problems on a regular basis. It’s either we don’t drink drive, or we do. There is no room for a double standard in this regard. We don’t say that because someone has a personal crisis that they can ‘understandably’ attack their partner. We don’t say thar because someone has a personal crisis that they can ‘understandably’ break a shop window.
Tough times do not give anyone a license to engage in criminal or anti-social behaviour.
Another Labour appointee to RNZ decided to make political comments :

Obviously they are all thick as the Rob Campbell incident illustrated clearly that these appointees are not to make political comments if they want to be in their jobs.
Jason Ake will obviously get away with his indiscretion (since he is insinuating hypocritical behavior by some in the Opposition).
Ha! That's rich coming from the serial poster.
Between NZTX, Balance & yourself probably make up 80% of the posts on here!
It would be good if there was discussion, but you three seldom engage in anything like what would be considered a reasonable discussion.
"Tough times do not give anyone a licence to engage in criminal or anti-social behaviour"
Seriously...Give it a break, what do you want, blood?
No one's offering excuses, but for goodness sake show a little human empathy & equanimity, something which is seriously missing by a few posters here & Luxon & Willis.
Kiri was just over the new legal limit, would have been fine under the previous legal limit, probably 2 glasses of wine would do that.
And listen to the ****e's on ZB with DIC convictions way over the limit, but got name suppression cause it could affect their jobs, ripping into her.
Don't expect you to agree but listening to Chris Hipkins on this, I & many others impressed with his steadiness & equanimity, his calmness, balance & soundness under extreme pressure.
Jacinda Ardern had it too in spades & a true mark of leadership. Would have had little sleep either.
Chris Luxon would have been floundering & that's another thing which worries me about a Nat ACT govt with this group of MP's in the current unstable global environment.
