What about the substantial growth in Child poverty, massive inflation, lack of housing stock growth (kiwibuild has delivered less than 5% of what was promised) etc. Labour may not be layabouts, but they are a group of busy idiots.

Does it not make very little sense to blame inflation on this particular government when every nation is suffering inflation in the wake of a barely-mitigated global pandemic?

Does it not follow that when inflation strikes, poverty increases, because the same wages buy less food? And have Labour not acted strongly against the most damaging parts of poverty, with the new insulation and ventilation policies and subsidies, the winter energy payments, and the free school lunches?

We can blame Labour for many things, like failing to act quickly enough to alleviate the housing crisis, but to blame them for global inflation seems like tabloid news and not critical thought.

Child poverty measures have gone DOWN. House building is at its highest rate since the 70s and inflation is a global phenomenon.

Banned _some_ guns. My semi-auto .22, bolt-action .308, and the .177 air rifle for my kids to plink targets are still fine and dandy.

Yes I'm aware and disagree with the policy, but I would still consider it "something" in contrast to "do-nothing Labour", considering the "something" in question has been a political battleground in the US for decades.

tl;dr: they banned >.22 semi-autos.

Two shots for summer.
