Yup, I don't think there is any single party that is willing to take bold steps to fix the underlying issues this country faces, the biggest of which is the insane cost of housing.

We should be building state houses by the thousand, breaking the stranglehold Fletcher building has on the economy, and putting in medium and high density housing along every public transport corridor.

Meanwhile, National are beating the drum about roads, some of which we need, to be fair, Act are being Libertarian shitheads as usual, Winnie is shitstirring as usual, and the three headed clusterfuck won't stop trying to divide the country along racial lines.

And while this is going on, we're discharging raw effluent into our waterways, as usual.
