Aus plans to charge NZ students full fees to study at Aus institutions has been scrapped.
Thank you.
Is that a win for this horrid new govt? Im not up to play with the NZ vs Oz features and benefits so a genuine post
What's horrid about it?
Nothing has affected me, financially or personally - except the hysterical level of whining from a few in the media and a few bitter individuals has been extreme.
I think she's well thought of overseas. A good thing happened - and you're complaining?
LOL.
LOL, no I'm not complaining. I am a National voter who voted Labour/Labour. Partly as National's let the market sort everything doesnt work for me. Housing crisis (its stable now) Health funding (we gave heaps last budget (but a lot of that was a one off aged care workers catchup)) Infrastructure (well we built a motorway pre election year) And Labours revitalised leadership may do good. It may not. But what we had, doesnt either. My response was based on the theme in this thread and as you say some in the media.
Like you I am unaffected. Well, I dont get our $2040 pa tax cuts! So far, and Labour has had the odd glitch, I'm happy enough. As to throw money at everything being a Labour mantra, well, if the last few years managed spending where its needed there would be no need to throw money at everything.
Its fresh, yes they are new, and I expect Simon Bridges to take over National. He is young and new also. No complaints about Bill E, but its 2017 now. Old school needs to step back, both sides.
