Something wrong with the methodology if Spain and France came out well given their economic 'growth', levels of unemployment etc. or perhaps it was just making a political statement about inequality

It's a bl**dy disgrace what's happened to the poor of NZ.

It makes me v angry when I see smug Key poncing about denying any responsibility.

(that's an old report BTW)

To be honest the National party's response to most issues from affordable housing to could be distilled down to "Problem? What problem? That's not a problem. I think I know hat New Zealanders want and it isn't a solution."

Renters are they allowed to vote?


House owners vote

Bryan Gould today:-

"This conundrum had happened in effect because the Rogernomics of Roger Douglas under Prime Minister David Lange brought inequality to New Zealand" Gould said.

"Class segregation and the extreme wealth and poverty were nonexistent in New Zealand until then, he said.
That sort of inequality was only known in the likes of Britain"
