Hang on, that was what is was like under Labour 4 to 5 years ago. All I know is since National have been in things are a lot better. After 9 years of being dictated to by the communist party New Zealand was a terrible place. Have we all forgotten this?

@shakernz Exactly how have things been better? Largest unemployment in years under National. Raised GST. Food prices increase faster than any wage rises. Gap between rich and poor expanded. Credit downgrade. Unemployed people treated like shit. Mental health cuts. Adult education all but abandoned. Yeah, so much better under National. And finally - Labour is a communist party? Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Hey honestly mate I would be concerned that this video might be in breach of the electoral act or perhaps even slander.

[hotlinkcinema]

@twmcsw Why? Surely if this was considered slander then a large percentage of what is on YT would be considered slander of some description. Furthermore, this video is clearly parody and last time I checked parody was not against the law.

@shakernz "things are a lot better." Maybe for the rich, but most NZers are suffering from high unemployment, higher GST, greater inequality, less social services, the list goes on...

@shakernz dictated to by a communist party? What a load of bullshit.
