Prime Minister Christopher Luxon told the country over the weekend in his State of the Nation Speech that New Zealand needed ‘tough love’ and cutbacks some would fund unacceptable. It is difficult taking a ‘tough love’ approach to our social woes from a multimillionaire who owns 7 properties and holidays in Hawaii. That juxtaposition is made more extreme when you consider the last week’s Government policy. Government’s have an obligation to lift everyone, not just their wealthy donors! This Government is asking the poor to pay for rich people’s tax cuts and calling that ‘democracy’.
