Great edition today Bernard! That economist's letter is amazing. Please allow this to go far and wide. I wonder if our opposition parties (who - apart from Te Pati Māori - appear to be largely missing in action) would care to respond to this letter. Is there even a shadow finance spokesperson?

We need opposition parties to step up with constant questioning of Luxon, Willis, and frankly anyone who has responsibility for either cuts or service degradation.

They should be asking for a response in light of this letter and questioned on their understanding of it, whether they agree with its contents, and if not then why not.

Similarly the media should be doing the same, but won’t hold my breath in either happening.

Consistent, incessant, persistent, ruthless, relentless, no holds barred, forensic, and deeply analytical questioning. Rinse and repeat.
