The Regulatory Standards Bill is a failure whichever way you look at it.
Last week I had the privilege of presenting TOP - The Opportunities Party's strong opposition to this poorly drafted Bill.
If the Bill passes its an indictment on every "yes" vote.

People really need to understand that Seymour is not alone.
His strategy to steal New Zealand's wealth is supported by a huge network of think tanks that is shared around the world so they can better fleece countries down to their bones for their morbidly wealthy owners.

If they don't they'll just help Atlas, and Atlas knows it too. Here's David Seymour bragging about how Labour keeps his preferred policies from low rate taxes to no capital gains tax. #nzpol

Interesting that David Seymour talks about “derangement syndrome”. Gives a hint as to where he gets his ideas from:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_derangement_syndrome
He’s stealing them from the world’s worst politicians and their sycophants.

If your local council is being forced into having an unnecessary & expensive referendum about keeping Māori Wards, you need to ensure you’re enrolled to vote YES.
Please encourage others to do the same. I’ll keep posting info on this over the next few months

The Regulatory Standards Bill is divisive and makes it harder to fix broken systems.
It’s facing overwhelming opposition. But the Government isn’t listening.
TOP’s Citizen Voice policy offers a better way.

📣 This is how we fight back.
Only 4 days left to submit against the Regulatory Standards Bill.
It’s a direct attack on Te Tiriti, our rights, and public power. Make it impossible to ignore us.

Make no mistake - this change will cost Kiwi lives.
New Zealand is already abysmal in Workplace safety and taking the teeth out of Worksafe will only worsen that.
We manage our ~200 staff just fine under the current system (and will continue to) but protecting Kiwi workers shouldn't be optional.

Just imagine if there was a country where capital gains were not taxed at all.
"One chart? What are we paying you for? I want more evidence of why the rich and vested interests at the AFR and The Oz are worried about how capital gains are taxed. Give us another chart!!"
Ok, since you asked nicely.
