It’s happening – Ruth Richardson accepts Nicola Willis debate challenge
After initially turning down a challenge from Finance Minister Nicola Willis to “come out of the shadows” and debate her directly, Ruth Richardson has changed her tune.
A debate could be on the cards as soon as next week, after the release of the half yearly economic fiscal update (HYEFU).
The Taxpayers’ Union has been planning an attack campaign on Willis from the right, asserting that she is increasing spending and debt despite pledging to fix the books.
The two biggest economic and social vandals arguing over who can mutilate the State most?
It’s Bitter nightshade vs Poison Hemlock.
This is what the Taxpayers’ Fake Union thinks is a debate, it’s the intellectual equivalence of David Seymour calling out his own name during orgasm!
The Taxpayers’ Union are a front group for alt right extremists and corporate interests, their capacity to manipulate the petty bigotries of muddle Nu Zilind are almost supernatural.
This friendly fire strategy to attack Nicola Willis is driven by one desire, and one desire only, to enable ACT to cannibalise National vote in the new highly polarised political media landscape shaped by social media hate algorithms.
It’s likely to work, but when National + ACT are a whisker of being the majority without NZF, it actually plays directly into Winston’s hands.
Of course Nicola Willis is blowing the debt, the Left have been pointing this out from the beginning, the difference between Labour’s blow out and National’s is that Labour was dealing with a once in a century pandemic where as National are borrowing for tax cuts, $300million for Tobacco, $200million for oil and gas and giving Landlords a helping hand!
National are borrowing more for their donors interests WHILE underfunding public services but that won’t be the debate the Taxpayers’ Fake Union will be directing, they want more cuts and steeper cuts.
This fake debate by the Taxpayers’ Fake Union must be protested with a militancy and attitude that shows these right wing rich pricks the level of contempt we hold them in!
These two are responsible for the deepest social carnage we’ve ever experienced and what they are doing to our country demands a protest of enormous scale.
They shouldn’t be allowed too cosplay debate while burning the nation to the ground.
The second this is announced, let’s immediately plan the protest.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.



It’s Dumb & Dumber – did either of these charlatans ever produce 3% growth? No? Not even once?
Then the hell with them – they couldn’t run a piss up in a brewery, but they’re dumb enough to try.
