I didn’t watch this start to finish but I agree with everything he’s saying.

  1. The election won’t change anything. I believe we’ll still be stuck in the same situation for another 5 years.

  2. Too much immigration. Do we need to let people into the country just to stack shelves at Countdown and Chemist Warehouse? This isn’t a skills shortage.

  3. Community solutions, instead of relying on Parliament

On that last point - I will be doing a mailbox drop this summer to spice things up a little. Voting in the election is a waste of time for me. I want to see more houses being built and it’s not going to happen from the government. We need the council to **** off and stop pandering to boomers and rich property buyers. It’s the council’s fault that there is no private property available for purchase or rent, at a reasonable price. They used zoning regulations to scam my generation out of a good quality life.

David Palmer if you read this, I went to Northlands Mall last week and I saw a huge empty section near the main bus stop. This looks promising, but so far it’s just grass growing there. As soon as the zoning changes and they allow high density near the malls, it’s probably going to be a 6 storey apartment. At least that’s my hope.

    BRUH. My replies aren’t working, even with the vanilla firefox in Kubuntu. This is weird.

    edit: does select language cause replies to fail?
