Nationals Economic Relief Policy


By the looks of the package it seems that there is only a Fringe Benefit tax threshold raised from $100,000 to $500,000.00. Which can now be filed annually or quarterly. Not much there. Accrurals will also be raised (business stuff, leases, Travel advertising etc).


Do you think its true the Maori King, Tuheitia didn't go to Waitangi last year because of the political bystanding it does? Right down Nga Puhi alley. I wonder. It's interesting too, because you know with the Maori Queen you couldn't call her cowardly because she was a women and didn't need to think about the political correctness of all situations she just avoided it altogether like the plague. But, for Kingi Tuheitia, do you think it would be courageous for him to speak out. I think he wouldn't not just yet. Maybe, in his older years, but right now he ain't going to be saying zip.


Along with all the treaty settlements and extensions with the government on the treaty claims what will this Waitangi Day implement in terms of korero and how do Maori stand now, two days out from the memorial anniverssary signing? Hot weather of course, no Waitangi Day cake competitions to promote obviously, so my Nanny Tansey won't be putting her best pavlova up I Don't think, but instead, I think people will do the normal thing and expect the normal. I hope someone comes up with some better promotional material at Waitangi including Maori TV. How about all these Raggamuffiin concerts down Rotorua why can't they have them at Paihia or at Waitangi afterall thats the place 2B. Ngati Hine and Nga PUhi Runanga what is your marketing team up 2, come on shake them get some new blood in there. Hey I could do with some part time mahi! LOL.
