So what exactly was urgent about this?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

Nothing. They're probably trying to make the upcoming budget look better.

This government is trying really hard to be the first single term government in a very long time. I'll be very disappointed if kiwis don't oblige them.

I really hope so.

I would like to see TOP get in they only got 2.22% See table last time; but I think we need voices of reason in our system. And for how much they spent; it is a very good result.

What a bunch of shit cunts... Let's just further screw over previously recognised 'essential' workers to gloss over our own mistakes

They found billions for defence though.

Good point - I was all focused on 'the landlord subsidy' but this is a bit more nuanced
