So Treasury is getting less tax "revenue" and we've cut "wasteful spending" of public services. And we get... what? Higher unemployment rates. Higher poverty rates. More ultra-wealthy donors to National and ACT. Lets acknowledge reality: trickledown economics is bullshit #nzpol

Spain has one of the smallest social housing stocks in the EU- just 1.7%. From #Madrid to #Berlin, #Lisbon to #Paris, Europe’s housing crisis has the same root: homes treated as assets for vulture funds to cash in on, rather than a right for the people who live in them. 🧵

Labour neolibs still committed to their 1980s policies of transferring public assets into private hands eh. If NZTA have "spare land" on their books it should go back to the local iwi it was almost certainly originally stolen from. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Labour to require NZTA to potentially give up spare land for petrol stations
It's part of a policy aimed at improving competition in the sector.

Nick Mowbray's only contribution to the NZ economy is donations to the ACT party. His shit plastic toys waste & corrupt children's brains, and his political loyalties are with a party that protects paedophile presidents and feeds children slop for lunch and AI slop for lessons. It all fits. #nzpol

A government surplus is an economically disastrous thing for a government to achieve. A government shouldn't be shrinking the money supply. We need better words than "surplus" and "deficit" for government because people associate entirely wrong connotations to these words.

This is absolutely true. Centrist politicians have essentially fetishised "tough choices" into being an end in itself. If you don't have to throw someone under the bus to achieve some broader strategic goal (even if you're not certain what that goal is), it's not grown-up politics.

The thing about trying not to pick a side is that the nazis *instantly recognize* which side you picked. They immediately identify you as an ally. They know exactly what side you're on. It doesn't fool the victims, it doesn't fool the Nazis, the only people it could possibly fool is centrists.
