The only way a beneficiary can legally share and reduce living costs on the paltry amount in the WINZ allocation to us disabled, and thereby unfit to work (except in the voluntary sector) human beings is to take on a boarder. Not a flatmate, a boarder. Try defining that with WINZ. It feels to me like the Sheriff of Nottingham has taken up residence in the beehive.
$3000,000 tax free profit on property sales for Luxon at the very beginning of his reign, tax cuts to millionaires, the fact that Fonterra charges like a wounded bull is 'great for our economy' never mind the affordability for us, but make sure the people on the lowest income barely possible to live on pay secondary tax on any spare cent they/we can possibly lay our hands on.
Equality? Equity? Any moral code at all? Or just greed and stupidity?
Not my choice of government, are they still yours?
