We haven’t done one of these since the 70’s.

Here’s every shit thing the coalition has done (off the top of my head) in less than a year:

  1. Cancel the NEW Dunedin Hospital after making CAMPAIGN PROMISES to build it BETTER than labour had promised.
  2. Tax Cuts for Landlords
  3. Borrowing for tax cuts…
  4. Reducing the Bright Line Test and profiting off of it personally.
  5. Firing Government workers resulting in even higher unemployment
  6. Reducing the funding for Kainga Ora and practically stopping the building of new housing, with NZ having the some of the lowest rates of publicly owned housing (including council!) in the OECD AFTER substantial Government investment!
  7. Less jobs available for builders (refer above) and associated companies.
  8. The mere self-suggestion by any Government agency it needs to be privatised let alone our healthcare system!
  9. Giving the police a worse pay-rise than what Labour originally offered last year
  10. In general repealing a whole bunch of policies including but not limited to:
  11. Reducing access to benefits for disabled individuals
  12. Replacing the Productivity Commission the “Ministry of Regulation”
  13. Creating significant social upheaval and we haven’t even yet had Seymour’s Treaty Principles Bill yet read in Parliament!
  14. The worst Government for Maori affairs in decades.
  15. Intentions to start exploring for gas (which on average would take a good 15 years before we could start using said gas)
  16. A failing energy sector with no intentions to “fix” it.
  17. Knee-capped Councils by not assisting in funding for ancient water infrastructure, or taking the responsibility off their hands
  18. Charter Schools in NZ: Funding for new schools for the few, but not the schools we already have.
  19. A whoo-ha over truancy that parents can get around simply by saying their kids are sick: as they always have been able to.

This Government is failing us. I want to plant the seed of a nation-wide strike. We can only take so much. The Dunedin hospital and privatising health care out of “desperation” - this has to stop. Our Minister of Health is invested in private Healthcare companies!
