December 19th.
I was gobsmacked to read the comments of ex-minister Michael Bassett in the Listner,who stated that the gaps between the have's and the have not's in New Zealand is "bunkum".This is right up there with climate denier's.The number of respected agencies from around the world have written report's on the increasing housing crisis affecting families,the main cause of poverty and inequality in New Zealand.
On housing matters many politicians in both local and central government,understand very little and retain almost nothing on the impact that their policies have on the homeless and low income tenants.
The affordable housing crisis will define the 2017 election as state housing and affordable housing vanish before our eye's.New Zealanders need to make sure you vote and do what they can to change the housing policies that have created the broken society that is New Zealand today.
