Hipkins says he's not bringing back the University Free Fees Scheme. Way to torpedo the chances of your Labour candidates in seats with high student numbers. If you want fees free vote greens. A vote for labour and national is a vote for higher student loans. #nzpol

I was a Labour member for donkey's years. I never left them. They left me. When I realised the party that once represented fairness, decency and a chance for working people was gone beyond recall, I joined @greenparty.org.uk. I've never regretted it. I can hope again, for me, and for our planet!

Frankly, I tire of the whole Govt debt thingy. What about household debt? The Govt gets loot at a fraction of the cost the public do. What is Labour doing to reduce household debt?
