All those headlines and no mention of Inflation or the Cost of living!
What a fuckn joke NZ msm is.
If you want an answer to how seriously ACT take a cost of living crisis, similar to Nationals housing crisis, take a look at Seymours photo at the head of this article. To think that there are people so thick they’d vote for Seymour.
That’s Rimmer appealing to the handicap voters. Mainly the greens retards.
Seymour is a DICK and not a useful penis eh guys.
