TAXCINDA … STOP WHINGING

Ok, we know you’re  behind in the polls and running scared (and yes I said 5 days is a long time in politics) but Bill English is entirely right in calling you out on your promise to raise taxes and your attempt to label that as fake news just makes you look silly.

Fact … Labour has promised to repeal National’s effective tax cuts due to take effect from 1 April 2018.

Fact … Those cuts have received legislative approval.   They are part of the law of the land.

Fact … were Labour to repeal that legislation they would be legislating for tax increases.

Slam dunk.

The delicious irony in all of this is that should Labour win and to repeal the legislation they would be relying on the votes of the Greens and/or Winston First who both voted for the cuts.   Their gymnastic contortions would be a sight to behold … voting against your own legislation … mind boggling.

Sorry Socialist Cindy … your faux outrage doesn’t wash and that’s why you’re 9% behind in the polls, down 7% in the same number of days.
