it was a great broadcast. really enjoyed it.
I like David Parker but he really needs to find some courage and say what really happened regarding tax in the last Labour government. Speak the truth and throw Grant under the bus.
Well why would he need to state to you what you obviously believe.
If he said he couldn’t convince caucus you wouldn’t believe him.
That said I believe it was a missed opportunity by Labour to show some balls and be inventive.
If they had we wouldn’t have the mess we have now with the bumbling fools we have in charge now.
Eg Seymour saying school lunches will be what mum and dad put in kids lunch boxes now. Does he like 4 hour old soggy sandwiches , bet he wouldn’t buy one.
He obviously didn’t read the report yesterday on RNZ news that pointed out that schools with the most wastage were those doing precisely what he proposes.
It was quite a good show – your intro was fun. 🙂
All sides woefully ignorant of the Houthi issue, but never mind – it’s a long way from here.
