It is a statistical fact that house construction in Auckland outpaced population growth under this last Labour government. Labour also introduced tax laws to reduce the tax deduction against interest payments for landlords, and extended the Brightline Test to 10 years. National immediately undid these tax changes, halted all public housing construction, and are in the process of stopping multi unit developments on existing sections. This is obviously is a cynical move to create more housing scarcity to drive up rents and house prices. The only Party that is useless at addressing the property crisis has always been National.

      Nah. Decades of underfunding of public services, mostly by National governments, got us into this mess. Now they want to make an even bigger mess.

      I love righties complete absence of understanding of how fiscal balance sheets work. Apparently in righty land austerity leads to greater economic growth despite mathematical proof and historical evidence that proves the complete opposite.

      And lack of supporting evidence. What's that, a baseless ad hominem? So where's the maths error, professor?

    Treasury warned Robbo about the consequences of borrowing and mobey printing; inflation, inequality and recession, but he did it anyway, in excess of what was needed to support economy. Lockdowns, subsidy and low interest rates should have been kept to minimum, not maximum.
    Now we have the hangover to deal with, and govt is doing their best with what theyve got.

      And what about the current governments tax cuts? Looks like you're blind to their contribution to the state of this economy.

      @maree82carm44 govt had created steady inflation of 2% for decades, yet until recently refuse to budge on tax brackets. Meaning they are effectively stealing more of your money by stealth.
      Politicians need to reign in their spending and show some respect to taxpayers who are expexted to be a never ending ATM funding crap.
      So solution is private sector growth with less tax and regulation and govt shrink and balance books

      @maree82carm44 NZ needs another reset like 1984 election, to kickstart economy after last govt/Rbnz stalled it

      If they were doing the best with that they've got, then they would be taxing wealth and assets more, and wages less. Unfortunatel, they are deeply embedded in the neoliberal ethos, so such things are anathema to them.

    It's almost like borrowing a shit load of money in the previous government wasn't such a great idea... won't comment on that though will you...

      Even with all the cuts, National still borrowed more money last year than Labour borrowed the year before. I'll tell you what's not a good idea: borrowing money to pay for tax cuts. Even the IMF told Willis that was a bad idea, but that is what she did and what do we get to show for it? GDP has fallen and the country is worse off than a year ago.
