Labour finally released their fiscal plan over the weekend
It was much anticipated. In fact, commentator after commentator for weeks now have been demanding it
Now it’s being dissected, and mostly by the current coalition parties.
But here’s the thing: where’s National’s? And why don't they have the same pressure?
And how about ACT?
Yesterday I asked David Seyour what spending he will cut to afford the loss of revenue from the KiwiSaver tax exemption, and he said enough and their fiscal plan is forthcoming
What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, so I would like to see these plans soon.
Meanwhile I bumped into Jenny Marcroft at a Sunday market in the weekend, and I asked her where she’ll be on the list. She has no idea. She’s waiting. We’re waiting.
There’s only 32 days until the election. Advance voting in New Zealand begins in 21 days, and overseas voting begins in 16 days. And in those days are weekends and rugby tests and more.
I just feel this election campaign has been going forever but a whole lot of vital information is being withheld.
