Looking forward to public services being asked to do more, but not receive any more funding. Stretching them thinner, and making them shittier.
Looking forward to a “restoration of law and order” incarcerating more people, separating families and causing more crime. While not addressing the problems that caused the crime in the first place.
Looking forward to the RBNZ being told to lower interest rates and artificially inflating property prices; making it harder for young families to buy in the communities they live and work in, and increasing the cost of living for every day people as they’re strangled by landlords.
Looking forward to dying from heatstroke in 50 years time from global warming due to increased and prolonged reliance on fossil fuels.
All jokes aside, I'm looking forward to criminals actually facing consequences for their actions, that's one policy Labour utterly screwed up on.
Which criminals though.
Wage thieves? Polluters? Tax evaders? Or just the poor ones?
You joke, but people are in favour of all criminals being punished. That’s not even a good straw man.
