Can we just pause and consider what the Government has done for the Aussie Banks?
Lawyer accuses Government of doing billion-dollar backroom deal with banks ahead of court case
Ummmmm, can we all please pause and consider what the Government has done for the Aussie Banks this week?
If you or I make a mistake with IRD, WINZ, MSD or the Local Council, they gleefully rip you to shreds without mercy like a Great White Shark in a Kindergarten pool.
Yet, two of the Aussie Banks, ASB and ANZ, made mistakes that cost us, their clients over half a billion dollars and this Government is ramming through a retrospective law to give them cuddles?
Why is it that we the people get the merciless Great White Shark feeding frenzy routine when we make a mistake, but the Ausssie Banks fuck us for $600million dollars and they get a retrospective cuddle from the Government?
Mungo no understand.
You and me, get the full monty bash, but the two Australian Banks get a cuddle and told they will have laws passed to retrospectively let them off the hook?
The Banks who make billion dollar profits?
The Banks whose job it is to know how and why they are charging you?
The Banks who took $300million off each of us the poor consumer?
Why do the rich get cuddles from this Government yet we the poor keep getting the stick?
Comrades, at some point you are going to have to acknowledge that your post-Covid bitterness towards Jacinda does not justify any of this!
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.
3 billion for land lords now 600 million for banks .More welfare for business .
Key and Luxon, best buddies. It’s all very incestuous.
Pair of dickey lickers
What Luxon has done, Hipkins could undo (if he had gonads).
It takes zero testicular fortitude to suck up to corporate interests … easier to take the bribe and run
Well now we know who really has power to make laws.
Let us await David Seymour’s spin on how this actually makes us a more equal society.
It sure stinks.
Why? Because they don’t work for us, Bomber. They tell us they do, and they promise us the world every time an election rolls around, but they don’t actually represent us in any meaningful way. This abortion of a government is just more brazen than most in giving covert handjobs to their corporate friends behind the back of the Beehive bike sheds. Foreign capital is our God Emperor, and all shall prostrate themselves before the altar of Mammon.
Seriously though, watching this government repeatedly give us the finger, tell us to get fucked, then laugh about it like a clique of mean girls is some pretty jaw-dropping shit. “What’s that, peasantry? You have opinions? Awww, that’s nice. Now, fuck off back to your hovels, you scabby wretches! We’ve grubby backroom shenanigans to be getting on with, and we don’t need you plebs clogging up the place with your blue-collar, low-brow, poverty-riddled carcasses!”
