National plans to introduce new taxes on foreign property buyers, offshore online gambling and immigration levies to pay for its tax cuts.

Some of us weren’t far off with the gambling levy, being an online service after all.

Actually some solid proposals there, I’m impressed.

    more extensive cuts to the public service

    Devil is in the details with that one.

    This package also increases support via the Working for Families system

    This is essentially a form of welfare spending that is hidden in the IRD budget instead of swelling the MSD budget.

        Yes, probably in ways we can’t foresee, too.
