The property industry gives more in political donations than any other, and its millions of dollars almost all go to two parties.

$2.5m in donations from the property industry to political parties since 2021. 97% of which has gone to National, Act & NZ First.

    Do places with 5 years terms typically still get 3 terms? It’s hard to imagine a country not getting bored with the ruling party after 10 years.

        Interesting! Do you think the current 3 years is a good middleground?

            Do you know the reasoning behind the recommendation? presumably they looked at these impacts.

            Maybe we should have yearly elections, so we can have lists of things to do in the first 100 days, then Christmas, then back to campaigning for the next election. Might get more done 😆
