    Credit to the NZ Taxpayer Union however - they were not trying to hide
    their involvement this time - right at the bottom of the website
    (where few are likely to get to) it says
    "Promoted by the New Zealand Taxpayers' Union, 117 Lambton Quay,
    Wellington, 6011"

    So much for the NZ Taxpayer Union being non-partisan as your nutter
    friend claimed recently.

    Now the graphics on the site suggest that Australia is where people
    are moving, and the first (and presumably most important) reason they
    are claimed to be moving is to get lower taxes .

    Look at this: https://taxfoundation.org/research/all/global/2022-international-tax-competitiveness-index/#Rankings

    We see that New Zealand is more competitive than all other countries
    than Estonia and Latvia!

    Australia is 11th - lower taxes than many countries, but a long way
    from getting as low as New Zealand.

    The rest of the lies and misleading statements are what we have come
    to expect from the ACT / Nat "Dirty Tricks" team . . .

    The effective admission of such a lack of any morals or honesty
    inherent in this website should give even supporters of the parties of
    the right cause for reflection - not once have Luxon or Seymour tried
    to dissociate themselves or their parties from such disgraceful
    dishonesty. No wonder NZ First is getting such support leaking from
    those parties.

    Clearly the article fooled you completely.
    It is obviously satire and nothing to do with political support, but once your >mind is made up it is set in concrete.
    There are no lies - it is satire you indomitable twerp, it is not supposed to >be accurate.

    Well that is a nice try, Tony; and you are of course correct - if it

    Slight problem with that of course is when a deliberately inaccurate
    statement becomes a deliberate lie - only the "Dirty Tricks" sponsors

    So if it is nothing to do with political support, perhaps you could

    Will it be followed by satire about costings of a policy to raise
    money from allowing foreigners to buy property that only take a single

    that have quietly dropped off their list; by satire about how tax cuts

    Already have, it is satire you know SATIRE - look it up.
    The TPU is apolitical and you are the only person in this country or anywhere else that tells the lie that they are not - as I pointed out when your idea hits the wet concrete it is immovable.

    Will it be followed by satire about costings of a policy to raise

    Who knows, could be people who want to make satirical comment about anything. Maybe somebody will make satire about sociopaths but personally I wouldn't do that, it would be cruel.

    There should be enough in that subject, regardless of who leads the

    Of course none of No Right Turn the NZ Taxpayer Union, The Standard, Kiwiblog, and a number of other websites are non-partisan.

    The NZ Taxpayer Union says about itself:
    "We’re here to represent the common interests of all taxpayers and to provide them with a voice in the corridors of power.

    We work to expose excessive and wasteful government spending. We want
    more transparency and accountability in how taxpayers’ money is spent
    and our politicians spending money as if they’d worked as hard as the taxpayers who earned it. We believe that new taxes should only be
    introduced when there are equal decreases in other taxes."
    and
    "We are not a political party nor are we aligned to any. We have never
    taken money from a political party – but have welcomed a handful of sitting MPs who have joined up as individual members for $25."

    Given those lofty statements, how do you explain how their creation of
    the url robbos.co.nz and the partisan content fit with their stated
    aims?

    There's a lot of truth in the url and typical of you your tits are now in a spin :)

    How do you explain why they have taken over Curia polling that was previously provided to the National Party - other than by accepting
    that they are delivering value to the National Party, thereby
    recognising that their aims do in fact align with that party. (We do
    not know, but it is possible that they also provide polling for the
    ACT party). They assert that they do not receive money from political parties - in reality they are taking advantage of being funded other
    than as a political party to then provide free services to National
    (and possibly ACT)

    You keep telling us to provide cites Rich. It's now your turn to practice what you preach! Prove this claim isn't just another lie or disinformation!

    Of course the NZ Taxpayer Union is partisan.

    The NZTPU is happy to point out faults in any political party that screws up Rich. You don't like them because they generally tell the unvarnished truth about Labour's many failures!

    Now the graphics on the site suggest that Australia is where people
    are moving, and the first (and presumably most important) reason they >>> are claimed to be moving is to get lower taxes .

    Look at this:
    https://taxfoundation.org/research/all/global/2022-international-tax-competitiveness-index/#Rankings

    We see that New Zealand is more competitive than all other countries
    than Estonia and Latvia!

    Australia is 11th - lower taxes than many countries, but a long way
    from getting as low as New Zealand.

    The rest of the lies and misleading statements are what we have come
    to expect from the ACT / Nat "Dirty Tricks" team . . .

    Tell us of a few examples, it would help your arguement. We means you.
    I gave a major one above - do you admit that New Zealand does not have higher tax than Australia?

    To hell with Australia. There are enough NZers over their already because things are better and it doesn't have a cost of living crisis!


    The effective admission of such a lack of any morals or honesty
    inherent in this website should give even supporters of the parties of >>> the right cause for reflection - not once have Luxon or Seymour tried >>> to dissociate themselves or their parties from such disgraceful
    dishonesty. No wonder NZ First is getting such support leaking from
    those parties.

    And the Labour/party Government is squeaky clean?
    I have not claimed that - this thread is about the NZ Taxpayer Union.

    No it isn't! It's about how Labour is chasing people out of NZ with it's stupid policies and exorbitant taxes and fees!


    Free speech in action Rich. It does get annoying when it does not follow the
    narrative.
    Thank you for your acceptance that the NZ Taxpayer Union does not just concern itself with reducing government spending

    But it generally does Rich. A fact your lack of comprehension helps you ignore!...

    Credit to the NZ Taxpayer Union however - they were not trying to hide
    their involvement this time - right at the bottom of the website
    (where few are likely to get to) it says
    "Promoted by the New Zealand Taxpayers' Union, 117 Lambton Quay,
    Wellington, 6011"

    So much for the NZ Taxpayer Union being non-partisan as your nutter
    friend claimed recently.

    Remember the article from the Tax Payers Union about who its members were >>and how they were funded by the members?
    Rich would prefer to believe the articles from No Right Turn because he "knows"
    they are honest just like he "knows" the TPU is a political organisation. >Both beliefs are idiotic.

    Of course none of No Right Turn the NZ Taxpayer Union, The Standard,
    Kiwiblog, and a number of other websites are non-partisan.

    The NZ Taxpayer Union says about itself:
    "We’re here to represent the common interests of all taxpayers and to
    provide them with a voice in the corridors of power.

    We work to expose excessive and wasteful government spending. We want
    more transparency and accountability in how taxpayers’ money is spent
    and our politicians spending money as if they’d worked as hard as the
    taxpayers who earned it. We believe that new taxes should only be
    introduced when there are equal decreases in other taxes."
    and
    "We are not a political party nor are we aligned to any. We have never
    taken money from a political party – but have welcomed a handful of
    sitting MPs who have joined up as individual members for $25."

    Credit to the NZ Taxpayer Union however - they were not trying to hide
    their involvement this time - right at the bottom of the website >>>>>> (where few are likely to get to) it says
    "Promoted by the New Zealand Taxpayers' Union, 117 Lambton Quay, >>>>>> Wellington, 6011"

    So much for the NZ Taxpayer Union being non-partisan as your nutter >>>>>> friend claimed recently.

    Remember the article from the Tax Payers Union about who its members were
    and how they were funded by the members?
    Rich would prefer to believe the articles from No Right Turn because he >>>>"knows"
    they are honest just like he "knows" the TPU is a political organisation.
    Both beliefs are idiotic.

    Of course none of No Right Turn the NZ Taxpayer Union, The Standard, >>>Kiwiblog, and a number of other websites are non-partisan.

    The NZ Taxpayer Union says about itself:
    "We’re here to represent the common interests of all taxpayers and to >>>provide them with a voice in the corridors of power.

    We work to expose excessive and wasteful government spending. We want >>>more transparency and accountability in how taxpayers’ money is spent >>>and our politicians spending money as if they’d worked as hard as the >>>taxpayers who earned it. We believe that new taxes should only be >>>introduced when there are equal decreases in other taxes."
    and
    "We are not a political party nor are we aligned to any. We have never >>>taken money from a political party – but have welcomed a handful of >>>sitting MPs who have joined up as individual members for $25."

    Given those lofty statements, how do you explain how their creation of >>>the url robbos.co.nz and the partisan content fit with their stated >>>aims?

    How do you explain why they have taken over Curia polling that was >>>previously provided to the National Party - other than by accepting >>>that they are delivering value to the National Party, thereby >>>recognising that their aims do in fact align with that party. (We do >>>not know, but it is possible that they also provide polling for the >>>ACT party). They assert that they do not receive money from political >>>parties - in reality they are taking advantage of being funded other >>>than as a political party to then provide free services to National >>>(and possibly ACT)

    Of course the NZ Taxpayer Union is partisan.
    Of course it is not! You can bleat all you like but what you have said about
    them is a lie.

    You can fool yourself, Tony, but you are wrong.
    I am not fooled, the TPU is made up of ordinarty caring New Zealanders and they
    finally became so concerned about the non-democratic intentions and actions of
    this authoritarian government that they pushed back. They are non-partisan but
    unlike you are nonets caring New Zealanders.
    The NZ Taxpayer Union
    created this:
    https://www.robbos.co.nz/
    Yes we all know that, it was clear days ago. No point in repeating links.
    It proves nothing.

    Do you really consider that site non-partisan?



    Now the graphics on the site suggest that Australia is where people >>>>>> are moving, and the first (and presumably most important) reason they >>>>>> are claimed to be moving is to get lower taxes .

    Look at this:
    https://taxfoundation.org/research/all/global/2022-international-tax-competitiveness-index/#Rankings

    We see that New Zealand is more competitive than all other countries >>>>>> than Estonia and Latvia!

    Australia is 11th - lower taxes than many countries, but a long way >>>>>> from getting as low as New Zealand.

    The rest of the lies and misleading statements are what we have come >>>>>> to expect from the ACT / Nat "Dirty Tricks" team . . .

    Tell us of a few examples, it would help your arguement. We means you. >>>I gave a major one above - do you admit that New Zealand does not have >>>higher tax than Australia?



    The effective admission of such a lack of any morals or honesty >>>>>> inherent in this website should give even supporters of the parties of
    the right cause for reflection - not once have Luxon or Seymour tried >>>>>> to dissociate themselves or their parties from such disgraceful >>>>>> dishonesty. No wonder NZ First is getting such support leaking from >>>>>> those parties.

    And the Labour/party Government is squeaky clean?
    I have not claimed that - this thread is about the NZ Taxpayer Union. >>>>>
    Free speech in action Rich. It does get annoying when it does not follow
    the
    narrative.
    Thank you for your acceptance that the NZ Taxpayer Union does not just >>>concern itself with reducing government spending
    Oh and I forgot to mention I'm proud to help finance NZTPU. I wonder if Rich supports the imbeciles he worships?

    Poor wee Rich. Must be embarrassing to support a government that's responsible for tens of thousands of New Zealanders fleeing to Australia. Then getting his nickers in a twist when an organisation points this out:)

    A government directly responsible for our health , police and Armed Forces at record low manning. Yet he's either to stupid or gaslighting his inability to provide any evidence to support his politically bieased so called opinion!
