Government Liars

Sandy from Central Whangarei

Ok, I don't know how well all of you remember the budget and I don't have a tv so I am unaware of a retraction by Grant Robertson however I do remember this whole winter energy payment to help elderly, disabled (me on paper but I have found the cure and I will get there. Affording the water filtration and not being around plastic is the big one. The govt think I'm loopy due to the m.s. however they just believe what pharmac and their ilk say - when pharmac just talks teke).
Anyway I remember Grant saying $450 for a single person and $900 for a family or couple. Get the paperwork and the math is for me (single person) 20.46 x 12 weeks =$245.52. So my question is to nightly news watcher-ers is : Did he retract his $450 a year statement saying its un-affordable or is my assumption correct that some criminal that is pretending to be a politician pocketing that money for him/herself and we aren't supposed to be able to do math and/or call them out on their lies? I'd put this under crime and safety category however I want as many people as possible to see this and get as outraged at the constant lies we are told by people blatantly STEALING taxpayers money. Taxpayers pay 10 million dollars to those criminals a year for them to steal from us some more. If we all go "nah. not anymore" enmasse surely things will change.
