True words spoken Ian Taylor. "(Seymour's TPB) was his lycra outfit, costing taxpayers millions, but meant to distract us from the real prize: the Regulatory Standards Bill."

There's always a past post with a contradictory view to today's post. No moral fibre.

So maybe strategically target women with good policies & messaging. 31.3% of people remain unsure about where they stand on pay equity with 25.5% are in favour of the #Nact overhaul. That includes a lot of women who aren't recognising the squeeze on them to pay taxes for the already well off.

Yeah, but let me just say, academics "should send their letters to other countries" because NZ farmers were already managing methane emissions better than "every other country on the planet". #nzpol

What matters is they think it's bloody great. Them and their Coalition of Trumpist 🤡 partners.

Sorry, my use of Trumpist as an adjective is to describe the mentality of our own right-wing politicians in this Coalition of 🤡🤡🤡, including the females who should know better the damage their policies cause.

Another Trumpist attack on lower income workers (and again, women). I can just imagine most ECE owners putting people before profit. Not.

Just come out with a coherent tax policy already. CGT, Wealth Tax, get the rich to pay their share. Then sell it well (put Kieran in charge of this).

What do parties and groups opposed to the RSB have planned to galvanise public opinion against it? This needs an outcry & actions of the same magnitude as against the TPP #nzpol

We have a Trumpist RW Coalition government playing the same elitist game here in Aotearoa New Zealand. Robbing the working class women and men to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest #nzpol
