It is possible that within the next year New Zealand's housing supply crisis will be resolved. In 2017 when Labour gained power it was estimated that there was a national shortfall of 71,000 houses and Phil Twyford said that the Government had inherited a disaster.…

Christopher Luxon has spent the time since the Sam Uffindell saga blew up keeping a very low profile. From the looks of his facebook page he has been touring farms and schools, areas where it is usually difficult to get into trouble. But this morning…

If you have not had the pleasure of seeing this site before can I introduce you to Crikey, possibly the best news and political analysis site in Australia. It is the home of Bernard Keene who in my view is one of the most perceptive…

National's media spin team is at it again. They have launched a petition against what they describe as Labour's "tenant tax". What they are talking about is the Government decision last year to remove interest deductibility for tax purposes. Previously an investor would buy a…

The most important recent political news in my opinion are two opinion poll results. The first the Kantar poll from last week suggested that 65% of kiwis opposed National's plan to reverse Labour's tax on those earning over $180,000. National needs to proceed with this…
