You raise some fair points but Balance often attacks posters with nasty comments and weird ones too too like the time he said his mate Mike Hoskings big toe knew more than me.

Obviously cut you to your soul - that you have less influence on public opinion than Hoskings’ big toe?
Don’t try & deflect as Labourites love to do - nothing weird about a metaphor. Everything weird though how there can be a government of such incompetence polling well due to one slippery & cynical person. But that’s what sheep do.

“Education Minister Chris Hipkins is distancing himself from an $11.7 million boost for a Taranaki private school after the National Party panned the taxpayer funding as "rank hypocrisy".
Ducking and diving - Minister of Education says nothing to do with him.
Notice the pattern emerging from the team of incompetents - fast to take credit for anything half good but even faster to deny responsibility & accountability for anything half bad.
So much for Cindy boasting that she would be proud to place Cindy’s team on their election billboards! 🤣
The sheep love the team of incompetents though as long as they are fed and led.

$200k per Private School student From this government.
The odour of hypocrisy - no wonder Cindy, Hipkins & Shaw are wearing face masks!
‘A letter to the Prime Minister from Kealy Warren, Acting Principal at Marfell Community School in New Plymouth, which is close to the Green School said “schools are screaming out for money to fix leaky classrooms”.
“It is a clear statement that you value the rich while actively keeping the low socio-economic schools in their place at the bottom of the heap,” Warren wrote.
“Come and see us. Come and see the result of this thoughtless action on our children. And overall thanks for telling us that we mean little to you. Thanks yet again for another kicking down,” she wrote.
Think Cindy will front up and heap hugs and kindness at Marfell Community School?
Has the Green Party been infiltrated??. This plan to handover $11 million of taxpayers money to a private school whose fee structure is such that only the children of those with significant wealth will be able to attend is lunacy Apparently no scholarships either?( I could be wrong).
Bad optics for sure, but it will create construction jobs in a problem location. For a while. Though 200 jobs sounds a huge stretch. Green Party members are not happy, and it will be interesting to see if they begin to find new principles and find they can support the scheme after all as the co-leaders head into damage control. And into an election in which the Green Party is looking marginal.
That money could also have been spread amongst state schools in the area for R+M which is much needed in most school buildings in NZ and would have created instant jobs. That argument from Shaw does not fly. This is yet another pet project funded by a decision directly from one Minister, like we've seen umpteen times from this Government.
