No surprises here - I guess for some of the one eyed posters here anything a National led is delivering must be bad - whatever it is - right?
Wasn't this the same people whining for years about the National led government writing deficits? Now they are in a surplus, but obviously it is not good enough. Of course - a government composed out of Green / NZF / Mana / Labour would have done so much better, no matter what they would have delivered (if anything) - wouldn't they?
Same with TPPA - Labour actually started the negotiations after making a number of earlier free trade agreements and in this process giving parts of our sovereignty away. Of course - If a Labour led government is doing that, than it must be good.
However given that the TPPA talks have been concluded under a National led government it all must be bad - not according to the "gold standard" some forever left leaning dreamers would have wished for. Keep dreaming ... and keep demonstrating how disingenuous the political Left is these days.
Some Labour politicians are even proposing that they would stay in the TPPA but not regard the terms ... how do you call people doing these things?

Shame on them! There used to be a time when (many) of the people of the Green and Left used to be naive, but at least honest - seems like times are changing and they lost the latter attribute.
Poor New Zealand, your opposition parties are a shambles ...
