TWITTER WATCH: National Party want to talk track records?
Cough.
National want to talk track records do they?
Just put aside that their list above of Labour’s achievements should probably also include:
Globally recognised Covid response
Globally recognised Terror attack response
Low unemployment
More spending on public services
and let’s remind ourselves of National’s track record…
- Dirty Politics
- Mass surveillance lies
- Homelessness
- Child Poverty
- Expansion of Police Powers
- Public Service Underfunding
- Dirty Politics
- Dirty Politics
- Dirty Politics
- More Dirty Politics.
…yeah, I think National’s social media team still needs work.
It’s a fair point though, isn’t it – public promises vs reality?
National’s other stuff
Sold off thousands of State Houses
Fake Meth Panic, throwing state housing tenants into the street
Doubled house prices, claimed its a Rock Star Economy
Jammed 500,000 more migrants into Auckland in 10 years, with no plan or infrastructure
Spent billions on roads, nothing on housing
Crusher’s dirty backroom deals with Oravida, and lying about it
Regressive tax switch, punishing workers, rewarding the wealthy
Bulldozed Christchurch with indecent haste, then artificially propped up land values, and forced the CCC to pay for expensive white elephant projects
Cancelled democracy in Canterbury, when ECAN tried to make dairy farmers stop turning rivers to shit
Sold billions of litres of bottled water to China for next to nothing
Tried to turn NZ into a tax haven
Persecuted Kim Dotcom on behalf of a foreign govt, with no due process
etc etc.
But hey, John Key made $10 million when he sold his Remuera mansion, so all good right?
The Franks and Trevors of these blogs were either blind, deaf, not born or from overseas during this period. Hardly surprising Labour has to deal with the crap their dealing with now.
