Are you really surprised that WINZ has withheld $200million from beneficiaries? Really?
We now have a broken neoliberal welfare culture that is sadistic and utterly counter productive, the poor, the vulnerable, the weak, the sick and the disabled do everything in their power not to be needing assistance from these Government agencies, because these Government agencies don’t help, they only punish.

3rd Leaders Debate – Jacinda did to Bill English what Hurricane Harvey, Irma & Jose is doing to Trump’s climate denial
The wave of derision, anger and outright fury directed at Bill English when he tried to spin his lines was so visceral that it actually stunned him a couple of times and he turned a lighter shade of grey. I’ve never seen person drown live on TV, but I suspect it looked like Bill.

If this is how WINZ treat Russell Brown – imagine how they treat the vulnerable?
The very first thing a new Labour Government needs to embark upon is a vast purge of the public service staff who are as much part of the problem as the policy is.

Latest TV One Poll – Labour 43% National 39%
Watch as the National Party dirty politics attack machine goes ballistic. The fictitious $11billion hole that doesn’t exist is just a taste of how vicious the rich and powerful get when they are suddenly threatened with losing power.

Wait, what? National’s claims of 1 in 5 beneficiaries too stoned to work is a bullshit figure plucked out of the air?
This is what 9 years of National has left us with, spiteful social policy drowned in stereotypes that have little basis in fact.

Why Steven Joyce’s $11b budget hole is a climate deniers spin attack straight out of Crosby Textor playbook
2011 and 2014 was dirty politics using Cameron Slater and David Farrar as the delivery vehicles, 2017 it’s dirty politics via the power of incumbency.

National finds new way to cut benefits and sell it as drug rehabilitation
National are fighting this election by lying about Labour & playing to the pettiest bigotries of their rump vote – bootcamps for delinquents, benefit cuts for druggie beneficiaries & human rights erosion for gang members.

How Bill English won the second leaders debate and why it’s bad
Mediaworks sacked John Campbell for politically motivated reasons because of John’s attacks on John Key, Steven Joyce used to own the company and the National Government once gave Mediaworks a sweetheart finance deal on license fees they couldn’t obtain from the open market.
All of that history helped Bill English win the second debate, it’s up to the voters to decide if a foreign owned media company should be able to frame them up as easily as they framed Jacinda up.

Consider the National Party madness that has been exposed in this election
How the hell this Party can still gain over 40% support is the question that should be troubling most of us, if National Party voters can still vote for these criminals after all the damage they have caused, then those National Party voters are part of the problem.
