Australia beckons. The government health employees have salary packaging. So before your salary is taxed they take out costs for leasing a vehicle , paying rent or mortgage and any incidental costs, then tax the remaining salary. If nurses in NZ knew this they would leave in droves. Add in the horrendous cost of living crisis National has created and there is absolutely no incentive to live and work in NZ, none.

And the pipsqueak Simian Brow doesn’t even have the courage to talk to them or the media.

Just pastes cheap and easily debunked lies on windows and social media.

I distinctly remember the teachings of Jesus stating “and you shall lie through though teeth in order to steal from those who care for the sick. For are they not scum, and a burden unto the wealthy and sorted”

What a shining example of Christianity.

I think it’s the other way round.
It’s not that nurses, teachers, cleaners et al are getting paid too little, it’s the greedy fat cats get paid far too much. It’s the disparity in wages that drives poverty, not the actual wages themselves.
We have a problem because soap flake can go into a supermarket and buy whatever he wants and never even cares about the price of lobster, butter and a crate of Cristal.
So as long as there’s a market at a price point supermarkets will charge what thy can.
Put soap flake on min wage, not only to reimburse him fairly, but to remove price gouging and poverty.
