He was very pointed. Ask Grant Robertson where the allowance is for new spending ouitside of education and health. All Jacinda and Grant have said so far is it's a smear and he is wrong.
Detail is what Labour doesn't want. Joyce is no fool and wouldn't stake his reputation on something he can't back up. If Robertson can't front on this they are going to have to do a lot of back tracking.
