The way the country is running at the moment China must probably step in and maybe all the coutries in the world step in..Get real folks who are we kidding..
Hmm, I keep thinking about the mentioned margin of error.Funny how National supporters never mentioned this until there was a drop in popularity.Whenever previous polls have come through National supporters have never argued about a margin of error.So what if.... what if the drop is actually bigger and National lost 8% as the margin of error is +/- 3 percent I believe.And no Alien, we didnt come away from the ETS well, we got lumbered with the cost of looking after business, and the Maori party won millions of dollars in compensation.I'm not racist, I believe Maori deserve FAIR compansation.That doesnt turn around the fact that this isnt all about race, this is about small groups of people benefitting from the National party while the rest of us lose more and more money to increased costs and levies.If this is a recession, then every should bare the burden, because if National keeps governing like this then they will end up with the same fate as Nixon Snr's presidency during the great depression, which is to say, out on their collective ears.What have they done about the tax payers money that they themselves are wasting?.Slightly lowered housing allowances?, cutting back slightly on travel perks.People compalin about helen and michael, yet key and bill are no better.The difference is that with this government, there is going to be a far higher body count, as the sick and disabled struggle to look after themselves.While disabled kids have to try and struggle within mainstream classes where they have never had much sucess.all the while National looks to gag all of its employees by writing in clauses in their contracts which state that they cant publicy criticise the government... even when that government may actually be wrong and hurting your kids.Or while we the tax payers find that government taxation is strangling us when we are already hurting.
As Anrath has correctly said, this government has done very little for struggling New Zealanders. There seems to be no real direction or management that the Australians have seen Kevin Rudd government do in Australia.His government got Australia out of the recession, ours has done nothing.JKs own politicians don't seem to agree weather or not New Zealand is in a recession.For example, Bill English is touting, after only one month of growth at a miserable 0.4% claiming New Zealand is no longer in a recession, yet at a public meeting, two of his Hamilton MPs used the "recession" as a means of squshing the railing service between Hamilton and Auckland.Quoting them "New Zealand is currently in a recession".Then we have 7% unemployment, uncertaintity of ACC, user charges for physio affecting a lot of Kiwis, the U turn on tax cuts then the embarassment of JK calling Copenhagan a "photo opportunity" and being made to attend kicking and screaming.National ETS has moved the cost away from the polluters to the working Kiwi.This government has turned out to be a flop and the sooner the voter realised the better before we all end up with nothing.
