Good response to Jan Logie's suggestio...Peter.<br /><br />Good response to Jan Logie's suggestion re Domestic Violence. The result is typical of the Gnats. Watch them in opposition. Every Move Labour makes will be heralded with cat calls and abuse, as well as scads of introduced white elephants. I they for some unimaginable reason, gain the Treasury Benches, watch their performance then.All the things brought into law by Labour, that they railed against so vehemently, will simply stay in place with absolutely NO alteration. The response to Jan Logie was typical. No sign of remorse for the victims or suggestions for improvement, But sit on hands drawing Red Herrings across the path. 'Bridges to Nowhere' is just now, making pious utterings about Labour's plans for this country to be carbon neutral by 2040 or thereabouts. What Party was it that flew a massive contingent to Paris in 2016 to the Climate Conference. Stood there hands on hearts, promising to uphold the resolutions made by the conference. Did absolutely nothing to reduce New Zealand's carbon footprint, but made themselves look good by purchasing carbon credits from other countries to create the illusion they were doing something. Global Warming has been on the world's agenda since Kyoto, in 2005. How many carless days have you seen introduced in an effort to reduce emissions? How many other recommendations for emissions reduction have you seen discussed let alone imposed since 2005?<br /><br />Both Labour and the Gnats have been complicit in doing nothing other than sitting on their hands, assuming that NZ being a small country contributed little to the emissions around the world. The old parable of the flea which said 'Every little helps' as he peed into the sea, can be no defence for this country's poor record in carbon reduction. The Gnats were in power when misguided Power Companies decided they should levy home owners with photo-electric generation on their roof tops, as a way of recouping losses brought about by homes going off the grid. You may recall Bridges to nowhere making a big song and dance about fully electric cars when they first appeared on the scene in this country, urging every one to go electric. Where were the proposals by his government to call worldwide tenders for the supply of four million electric cars to replace the present fleet? What effect would an order like that have on car manufacturers? Prices would come down to rock bottom and it would become possible for most people to go electric, perhaps subsidised by government, or perhaps by low interest loans made available to all who wanted them. No. To provide a tax cut for the1% Kreyp introduced a further 2.5% increase to GST, bringing it to 15%. Super-annuitants are bearing the brunt of this move Along with the 17.5% tax levied at source on the pittance known as NZS, the imposition of the additional 15% GST brings our total tax liability to 32.5%. The top rate of tax payable is 33% for incomes in excess of $74,000. What does that tell you about generosity of Governments?<br /><br />Peter G.<br /><br />Wheeler's Corner NZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18151905311166293297noreply@blogger.com
