"Show me the money" part trois

Another day; another numbers gaffe from Phil Goff:






Seriously; is Goff being set up by his successors-in-waiting? He couldn't supply the numbers in The Press debate in Christchurch, and he couldn't supply the numbers yesterday to The Nation. Now his lack of financial literacy has again been exposed; this time by Guyon Espiner.

Espiner finally supplied the answer for Phil. Labour will have been in power for two full terms before its proposed Capital Gains Tax produces any additional revenue in the financial year 2018/19.

Show us the money Phil; how much more will you have to borrow in that time to pay the bills, and pay for all your promises?

Aroha's leaving, which is sad :-(
But Winston's coming - makes us glad:-)

Key is even worse at remembering words. He is a numbers man. A money man. A liar and bully. Go winston... Keep the smarmy refuting disagreeable autocrat out of power.

Hello anon. Couldn't agree more. The Nats are literally pooing themselves at how nearly 50% of the electorate can't stand the right wing greedy vitriolic dictatorial incompetents, and that Winston is taking it to them. The left is the natural reasonable position for intelligent people.

Looks like it's going to be a fun week as the Left shows it's less pleasant side...

'Its' has no apostrophe as a possessive. The right love banging on about National Standards and mocking campaign hoardings with typos.
See: @Garry 'intelligent people' above.
He appears to be correct.

In their letter approach to schoolteachers the Green Party begins paragraph 2 with:

"The Green Party are working....."

Signed by co-leaders with degrees.

You were saying about intelligent people on the left, Garry?

Thank you. You've proved my point nerdswithwords.
The right love banging on about National Standards and mocking campaign hoardings with typos.
Meanwhile reasonable and intelligent people (the left) can also make mistakes as they are not as hagiographic as those on the right. Now, take your lesson with a good grace you {........}

The funniest thing is how that bully Mr Keys is trying to scare New Zealand with lies and police state actions. What a dill pickle. He is so scared of Winston so is acting like a real banana. Go Winnie! I hope you get a lot of the undecided vote and much of anyone who can't stand the smarminess of that bloody Mr Keys.

Ross said...

If the best the left can do is try and rip down John Key then they had better get used to many more years in opposition.

It is a very failed strategy.

Actually offering something constructive for the country isn't too much to ask for is it?

Jimmy T said...

Ross thers no point showing or talking about the excellent long term policy on offer to the right. They are blind, deaf and, well you know.... All that can happen is an epiphany where key is finally called out for his rubbish ability as pm by those who should be smarter but are stuck in the old ideological ways because they are scared.

Aroha is 16 and kicked out of school. Not getting on with mum so moved in with her 17yo boyfriends mum. Sees not future in NZ so is moving to Oz .. I bet they can't wait to take them in.
Maybe she should have tried just a little harder at school with a view to her future .. just a thought.
Oh, Anne Tolly is Min of Education. Labours spokesperson for Ed is Sue Moroney .. say no more

Anonymous said...

That,s right Jabba. Trolley is despised for her inability and meanness and shit policy.So shhhhhh say no more alright mate.

Nookin said...

You are really pulling them out of the woodwork tonight, IV2. The nastiness is pervasive - even the campaign advertisements.

So you'll be focussing on the policy of any material rather than putting a nasty spin on it huh? We won't hold our breath for that. Just waiting for the smear and sensation to start... It's what the right excel at.

Anon@10:23,
Please go and read the flyer displayed on Whale Oil. Have a think about it, and then come back here and let us know if you think it is acceptable.

I will be interested in your response, as it will clearly outline both your character and what sort of person you are.
