I prefer to pay taxes that will keep New Zealanders housed, educated and cared for than to see New Zealand sold to foreign investors who couldn't care less about this country. Money is not everything.
Yeah Right 😴
Keep paying you taxes then mate, you can always donate to the party if you would like to offload more of your money, only a fool would vote for labour.
You obviously haven’t figured out it doesn’t matter how much money you give you don’t get any better results.
Just look at the last 6 years. Worst time ever to be a new zealander.
What make you think your taxes are spent on those things? We all are happy to pay for services so long as we receive services.
The heart of the matter is, we are paying more tax than ever but the service has been reduced.
The tax savings are peanuts for individuals. Go on the nation tax calculator and do the maths. For all the hassle/issues of once again selling off the country. Totally not worth it
I think many might disgree (based on the number of comments critising the interview) , but if I want to hear unchallenged party policy I will go to a political party website or attend a local community party meeting. I want all party policies to be drilled down into to help me better understand what I am voting for. Critically engaging in our political system is more important now than ever.
You can be critical without constant interruption and over talking.
Did you even watch it? He challenged plenty
@@josephl9619 ofc I did. I am not going to comment without watching something. I agreed with the questioning. Many who have commented here just wanted Luxon to fill in the 23 mins with a public party broadcast. I am saying I don't agree with that. I have amended my original comment so you can better understand what I am communicating. 🙂
@@steveabplanalp1657 maybe Luxon (and our other party leaders) need just answer the questions instead of talking around things.
@@Double.S.02 okay, i misunderstood your intent. Yes, i agree.
Clearly National haven’t done any modelling on their tax plan, otherwise why won’t they release it
because there modelling is bullshit
They never do any work
If you're mad because Jack made Chris look bad then perhaps it might be worth reflecting on whether National best reflect your values.
he's making himself look stupid.
@@alicemckinley1466 I agree, but there are a lot of people here saying exactly the above
Jack is terrible not because he makes look bad but he buts in nonstop. Jesus, look at the peter Williams interview with Winston. That's how Jack should do these interviews.
@@dillianwhyte443 politicians already have their own platforms to share their messages uninterrupted and without scrutiny. It is the job of reporters to hold them accountable. It is a real shame if accountability is no longer something we require of our politicians.
In the past, didn't National sell our social housing to overseas buyers, and then labour had to rebuild houses?
shh... the truth has no place in Mr Luxons claims of doing housing "better" than anyone else.
Yes, you are correct. National sold off and demolished state housing during a housing crisis they created. Labour has built thousands of state and transitional homes, with thousands more currently under construction. Luxon is proposing to cause another housing crisis by opening the floodgates to foreign property speculators, that Labour had closed 5 years ago.
exactly so , I hope this time he makes changes here
Labour tried, was called kiwibuild. Labour sold of plenty of state homes too.
Yes. Because same as now the previous labour govt ran up huge debt and assets had to be sold to keep us afloat. Even worse this time according to the International Monetary Fund.
I am a low income student, my “tax relief” from nationals plan based on their own calculator is $2.15 a week 🎉
But don't worry there will be lots of education cuts to pay for it!
You need to think longer term, not what you can get out of it now.
@@MP-qs9yh longer term I’ll get a determination of the climate, more debt, unobtainable housing and car centric infrastructure 🔥
Deterioration*
We were all low income students once. It kinda comes with the territory. Work hard, really hard and you'll do well. I was a full time uni student while working three different jobs- it was hard, but I learnt a lot, and set me up for the future.
This man is master of avoiding answering questions straight.
hes not even good at evadeing the questions hes incompetent
Because Jack is not asking open questions he’s trying to railroad and get sound bites. I’m no luxon fan but our MSM don’t give him a chance. Better to listen to him in person.
@@rrichardson4576no he isn’t, Jack is just trying to get a straight yes or no answer from Luxon. Watching Luxon dodge the question in favour of spouting meaningless platitudes is embarrassing. So many politicians do it and it’s so frustrating.
@@rrichardson4576you definitely sound like a fan. You want him to speak in person so he can tell you whatever you want to hear
Jacinda is much better at it 😂
Our politicians are a joke
Where do those who are kicked out go? They go to your local street, your local park and your local shopping centre like they did under John Key
Luxon becomes flustered when he can't get away with constantly repeating his preparation. He also becomes personally engaged, even aggravated, when his explanations are dismissed by Jack.
Maybe because every single sentence he said was cut off by Jack. Go through this interview and try and count more than 3 sentences Luxon manages to speak without being interrupted
That's because he's avoiding the questions
Luxon answered the question. It's Jack Tame who don't understand and kept pushing from his prepared script.
Chri-cinda Lux-dern is another bully just like Ardern and the housing crisis was already there after 9yrs of National and also I've watched both Labour and National governments throw millions apon millions at our health system over the last 50 odd years and it's just steadily kept going backwards so what is the millions that Chri-cinda is going to throw at health going to achieve apart paying more administration and advisers to warm chairs
He had to be shut down otherwise you just end up with a few minutes of word salad. Jack was very good at trying to get him to answer the question.@@lewisjones284
Why would anyone vote for national or labour? Just because they’ve been there forever doesn’t make them any good. New blood needed from actual intelligent people with skills.
Sometimes we vote to remove a party
@@samwise5493don’t, it backfires. You should vote for the party you agree with the most
Exactly. And vote for new and innovative who tell the truth. For a change
@@lavenderpatch5031 put your looking glasses on.. look as far north and as far south... so do you see any?
It's not new blood we need. Winston Peters is the only level headed politician we have
And the ending lines, asking for the tax cut modelling!
Jack Tame “if you are so confident with your numbers, will you commit to releasing that specific modelling?”
Luxon “I am extremely confident with our numbers…
“Great so will you commit to….will you commit to releasing that specific modelling? It’s a very simple question, will you commit to releasing the specific modelling which shows how you’ll sell $20 billion dollars worth of housing to foreigners over the next four years”
“And Jack, we have released already our 32 page document…”
“YOU wanna be Prime Minister, you want to be prime…everyone watching this can see what you’re doing, can see that you are ducking each time I ask you…will you commit to releasing that modelling?
“We’ve already released the modelling we’re going to release Jack…”
“So that’s a NO.”
…Tame “It all comes down to economic credibility,
Luxon “no it doesn’t”
“What are you afraid of?
Luxon “I’m not afraid of anything!”
“Then great, then release the modelling…”
"I’m delivering a fantastic tax package for working New Zealanders which is fantastic, which is brilliant…”
“so one issue is the numbers…”
“no there is no issue on the numbers …
“then by all means release the modelling…you could clear this up in a *snaps* heartbeat and we wouldn’t have to agonise over this….’
“I’d encourage everyone to jump on look at the 32 page document….“
…and you will not find the modelling in that…”
Thanks for the text! :)
Calm down dude he's going to be the next Prime Minister. It's done 😊
@@llewmatthews4828yeah and we all know it's illegal to critique leaders
hehee I love it! Jack going hard after these pepole who try to be smooth talkers but say nothing or lie!
Ah geez, nothing worse than seeing a politician get caught failing to answer the question, then seeing them become aggressive back towards the interviewer. Luxon forgets he's speaking to the public via these interviews. I would be shocked to see this type of incompetence and arrogance in the work place. What is his justification for being so absent minded/ unprepared/ disingenuous? He was given simple questions, how hard is it to give a simple answer. One can only assume the man isn't interested in improving NZ, given this interview and a range of others he has given over the past few months.
I didn't see luxon getting angry he just kept repeating the answer to the question but poor angry Jack got more angry. Incompetent
@bethlaugesen6063 I'm not sure you watched the same interview. Jack showed him up to be a lying, disingenuous prat
@@bethlaugesen6063 Tame just cuts him off because Tame supports Labour.
@@geoffw86he wasn't given a chance to lie before he was interrupted by Jack.
It's business speak,repeat,repeat,repeat,until the interviewer gives up,then jump to something you are comfortable talking about,come on Jack,his so-called "re-prioritising, targeted,streamlining " is business-speak for privatisation ,he won't give straight answers unless he becomes PM then he'll do whatever he wants with no checks and balances or oversight .
Can barely answer a question. All our prime land sold to millionaires and we get a measly 20 extra a week. Id rather keep them out. Had thousands of yearly pay increases, additional sick days ect ect. They will roll it all back and freeze wages.
I now have even less trust in Luxon, this isn't an interview for AirNZ, its the most important jobs in the Country.
If he cant be honest now, then he never will.
Luxon isnt worth more than his "on repeat" evening news rehursed sound bites.
i wouldnt trust him at all arfter that train wreak
Those currently in the lower socio-economic groups will be made worse off under a National government. A private rental market has and never will solve NZ's housing problems.
One question- where do you think people would live without a private rental market ?
@@markelliott6112 Have you heard of housing NZ?
Labour have managed to build more than 13,000 new state homes, if National had built the same, 92% of those on waiting lists would be housed.
Since when did a roof over a hard working families head. Become an investment tool to be used to screw that family of their hard earned wages. Because houses have increased in their value. Resulting in the hard working family, now being unable to buy their own home? @@markelliott6112
Have you ever heard of a private landlord decreasing rent? Private landlords are running a business and the vast majority will always maximize returns by increasing rents as much as the market will handle..it is human nature. a government landlord will actually take other factors into consideration like equal opportunity for those who can't afford market rates to find proper housing. It does not have to maximize profits because it actually has a responsibility to all its citizens.
Well tbh i think we should all just sell meth and become millionaires lol
How on earth could anyone in their right mind vote for this guy? He couldn't care less about the struggling classes. This is all about ensuring that money continues to flow up and to hell with those with the least. Shocker
He knows exactly where those tenants would go...into cars and tents. Or be so desperate they would rent all those leaky, not insulated, black mould infested rentals that slumlords have not been able to sell.
I work at Kainga Ora, there are tenants who literally shit in the corner of bedrooms and use houses as meth labs
@@Tearoha1987Nobody has ever argued differently. But the question remains. Where tf do these people go after being evicted from KO?
On the street. In cars. Homelessness is bad. Not just for the homeless but also for everyone else.
@@Me-ui1zythey used to be placed in mental health facilities but the Labour government dismantled these
@@Me-ui1zyindeed. And these people often also have children and partners who are not antisocial dickheads. Do they deserve to be kicked out too?
@@Tearoha1987you are talking nonsense
National looking after the upper class as usual, Investments and profits comes first. Which is great, but what they will do is completely destroy the very slim chance of first home buyers getting anywhere at all.
The gap has never been greater, and who's been in power the last six years?
@@stevejamieson2172and reducing the riches taxes will solve the problem?
@@stevejamieson2172and the solution is to increase the gap further by voting a party with no proper modelling or data behind their claims? Where do you think they’ll get the money when their foreign buys plan fails?
This interview should be compulsory viewing for anyone wanting to cast a vote this October.
Why won't he release the modelling data ?
Smacks of "we won't be raising GST".
As for the private developers sharing in the state house building .
Now we know why Winton Land, donated $400,000 to his party coffers.
What steps will National and Act take to gather some of 7 billion in tax fraud?
none
They won't, they prefer to lock up those who might well be the result of generational challenges of poverty, abuse, poor health outcomes, greater % brown, they're a disgrace
Who cares its always going to be there.
They aren't going after white collar crime, that would be the same as going after their own mates.
@@LauraTeAhoWhiteVery astute, pick on Beneficiaries, Instead usual target for National.
Ah yes, another one of your policies where your modeling is just "trust me bro" and will be paid for by vibes because you're "determined"
This is exactly the artful social accounting that National keeps perpetrating ... just evicting people to some other corner of society is not remedying the problem its just prolonging and intensifying it ...
Start by filling the prisons back up and build a few more to account for the increase in population and the 501s.
A bunch of the scumbags in the KO housing have probably done enough to earn prison sentences - it's just the Labour coalition have been determined to keep the scumbags out in the community where they can do more harm.
No too hard for Luxon to answer honestly - but he is not honest
Why should people put up with losers -Let them be homeless and learn a hard lesson -NZ is full of self entitled bludgers
Labour and the greens too to be fair
These unruly tenants need consequences. If they lose their home maybe they’ll treat their next house and neighbours with more respect.
@@bobbyhorowitz9089 And maybe they won’t. Then what? It’s a horrible problem with no easy fixes.
Great work Jack as always. Thank you for being direct asking great and important questions and calling out politicians when they will not answer the questions. Also happy we can leave comments here. Its frustrating on many news sites comments are turned off.
Lol they won't allow comments because people will call them out on their blatant left wing bias or point out that under Labours watch crime has spiralled out of control or that cousin f8ckers like nania mahuta are given 50 percent of control of the states water assets and are giving 6 figure contracts to their family members. I'm not being a dick she's actually married to her cousin who was charged with assaulting a woman Google it
Nationals economic credibility is unravelling fast.
I do not trust Luxon he scares me I hope no one falls for his deceptions,
Horror of horrors! Their numbers don't add up 😮
Christopher "My source is just trust me bro" Luxon
Simple questions, no answer.
What difference then is it from the current government who were after all "our single source of truth."
Pls Jack It's all in our 30 page document 😔 Jack pls
😂😂 so true
Why are people upset at Jack interrupting Luxon’s answer when Luxon either misunderstands or deliberately deflects from the question 🤔
Just answer the question straight Chris!
I think Christopher Luxon would have given straight answers if only he was permitted to speak and explain. Jack just kept interrupting and made communication almost impossible
@@francesbrown850 righty so. Every time Jack asked him a yes/no question, you could hear Luxon cranking up the spin machine
@@francesbrown850 Luxon thinks we’re all idiots, and so disgruntled with labour that he can sleepwalk into power without doing his homework
@@francesbrown850rubbish. He just wanted to spout bs slogans, no FACTS!
He has none!
@@francesbrown850No he wouldn't... why are you being fooled by this idiot?
Jack Tame the interviewer: 12m38s “The election year began with the costliest extreme weather event in New Zealand history, of course National will allow oil and gas exploration, you’ve taken that money from the Climate Fund to fund tax cuts, you’re promising lots of roads, you’ve done no emissions modelling on your transport plan, you’re scrapping the Clean Car Discount, you’re increasing the cost of public transport…that’s all true right?
“no let me let me…”
“No is that true? That’s my question…”
“Do I get my shot to be able to tell you…”
“My question is, have I misrepresented any of those things?”
Good to see Jack finally asking serious questions
Don't believe what comes out of his mouth
And not allowing Luxon to side step answers like he usually does.
That's because he's not questioning a Labor politician
@@markhunter2342 I take it you haven't watched his other interviews?
@@nikiwaverider6640 I have
Luxon staring daggers at Jack 11:28 18:37 19:22
People say - oh he's worked in business so he must be an amazing leader. Nooooo not necessarily.
Nats and some on the right are more about money and not care enough about people.
Lab or left are all about propping up people and not financially smart and not practical.
What about a CGT and wealth tax on our most affluent. You can get your 20 billion from them and pay teachers and nurses more and build more houses. Tax road users more to pay for public rail and clamp down on the billions in lost revenue to tax evasion. A more equitable society= a safer happier fairer society for all
Pretty sure that’s the Greens’ exact plan and it’s fully costed and evaluated
The wealthy already pay more. We need to be careful not to tax them to the point they move away from nz.
If anything we should tax them less to attract moreof them.
For example Apple, if we offered Apple 10% tax rate on $170 billion we would likely get them to move here and we would be $17billon better off each year.
@@samwise5493 are there any studies that actually support the idea of tax forcing the wealthy and businesses to move?
Yes many. Tax is a qualification, you can get a Marsters in tax.
it's a well understood topic.
@@samwise5493the question is do you have evidence to support your claim that higher taxes result in wealthy people leaving, not do people study tax.
It is insane how much Chris dances around each question. Surely he knows it's not a good look for him or his party?
It's more often than not successful in most mainstream media, including RNZ, he's challenged here, well done Jack Tame, he's slippery and needs to be pinned down more often
the costing must be complete bull shit or he would have the figures
It seems Jacks goal in the interview is to try and trap Chris or make him say something foolish. He should be challenging policy, but with the goal of everyone (audience) understanding the problem and how policy may fix it. The main reason Chris was not answering questions was because Jack was oversimplifying issues with the intent to make Chris make a mistake or look bad. An example would be Jack asking if they were committing any extra funding for state homes after Chris already said they are maintaining the current governments goals, therefore the budget remains the same, if a t-shirt costs $30, you don't pay $40. So If Chris just said "no", it would look like a negative thing, where if he explains why, then the audience will realise more $$ is illogical. He was asking a lot of stupid questions.
If you can't answer a simple question you are either hiding something you know the answer is not what the public wants to hear.
@@siwatibr Complex questions are easily oversimplified and give the illusion that it is in fact a simple question, and Jack was trying his best to not allow Chris to add context (he fought hard to explain that adding more money to the current state housing plan is illogical). The goal of this interview should be for the audience to better understand problems, and potential remedies through policy and constructive debate. Jack needs to learn how to constructively debate opposed to trying to create a hostile and combative argument. But there certainly are times where simple questions need simple answers and those simple answers are not always given. Unfortunately, leaders are unwilling to say "I don't know that figure off the top of me head, I will get the MP with that portfolio to get back to you with an answer", or words to that effect. It's unrealistic for a party leader to know the intricacies of all MP's portfolios, and it's a shame when political reporters weaponise these things. FYI there are over 30 ministerial portfolios.
Luxon thinks we’re all idiots, and so disgruntled with labour that he can sleepwalk into power without doing his homework
It's why despite such overwhelming disatifaction with this gov(it's a fact not an accusation),
the National party is still managing to drop in the polls
Why do we even allow policy makers to create policies that they directly profit from
Why can’t he give a straight answer for anything?
because it would terrify nzers
Jack is one of the best interviewers I've ever seen. He keeps Luxon on topic and doesn't allow him to zig-zag around questions
He's a leftist, and it shows..... interviewers are supposed to be impartial... he doesn't know the meaning of the word/
More like a stopped clock is even right twice a day
Tame is nothing more than a champagne socialist ideologue who is completely partisan.
Brilliant Jack. Nail him on the specifics. Luxons vagueness is a big worry.
there lieing there numbers dont add up or he would realease the true costings
booya!!!! JACK again being a real journalist and not letting them off the hook!
LUXON was seriously backed into a corner and did his best to avoid answering but Jack wouldnt let it go and finally its clear Chris cant answer it..
VOTE WINSTON PETERS people!!!!
enough of these labour and national liars!!!
Just gets luxon in no thanks
Best political interview I’ve seen, Jack didn’t let Chris slime out of any of the important questions that should all have simple answers! 👏🏻 refreshing to see!
He wouldn't even let him answer lol, what interview were you watching? He either interrupted a few words in to the answer, or tried to answer his own questions
Sadly, even after seeing that the emperor has no clothes, it looks like the majority will vote for this fool.
😢yep because nats just repeat the same thing over and over. Endless cycly of vote for us we will get this done. Same old same old its not making nz better, but hey this is just the way i see these political people talk to us the voters.
Anyone who is scheptical of global. Warming... Just give that up. CHRIS luxsoap
It isn't very often I agree with Jack Tame, but if we are adding 86,000 people each year but only adding 6,000 houses over four years then the housing situation is only going to get a lot worse.
The 6000 houses is only the ones the government are planning to add. He is saying the private sector are going to be building extra houses as well.
EVERYONE deserves housing - it is a basic human right, just because people may be anti-social doesn't mean they deserve to be homeless. They need support in other areas and therapy to deal with the antisocial behaviour, not homelessness.
Not everyone deserves FREE housing. That's a privilege, not a right
Does no one have a problem with putting some blame on the ones that are facing eviction ? Why have we lost personal responsibility in this country ? If you behave and are respectful to your neighbours, then - no eviction. Why is there a problem with this ?
Let them live in your house then.
@@CZW87no everyone deserves housing full stop even if its free and even if they are a cunt. Its about how we carry ourselves as a nation. Do we to be like America or do we want to care for all our people no matter their issues. Like good should. Or maybe your a dick i dont know
@callumwebster2546 shelter is a basic human right. What a disgusting comment and that attitude has no place in New Zealand. We care for each other.
National is a joke. Boot it Chris. We are going backwards under this fool
dumb
Seems insane that the best both Labour and National can offer are the two Chris’.
Can NZ have a new party that actually looks after NZers first and foremost? Winnie P and ACT aren’t it by the way.
We do. Vote Top
@@mischabelton1806 That’s my thinking too, the more I look in to it.
The Greens or TOP look promising this election.
@@kyliec143I cannot think of a worse prescription. Greens are like everything that's bad about labour. except worse. TOP are nearly as bad, I have watched it degrade since Gareth Morgan and Geoff Simmons to the useless, pandering joke it is now.
@@zeroyon4562Do look harder.
Jesus man. I dont get why they wont release their numbers. How bad are they ahah
Oh jesus I hope not. The poor are going to be so much worse off. And families already struggling will struggle harder.
‘Struggling families’ to you and I, ‘Bottom feeders’ to Christopher Luxon. I’m pretty sure he got the term from Jesus, because he’s a devout Christian.
It happens all the time.
Jack is Chris Cryptonite.
Well done Jack.
I appreciate you breaking down the content. My experience in the present market has taught me a lot of lessons. When it comes to investing, diversity is definitely the key, which is why I focused on industries with high growth potential. There are no shortcuts to wealth, but there are clever ways to get there.

The emissions trading scheme has auctions. A recent auctions made no sales. So this affects Nationals use of these funds to fund income tax cuts.
If they had a brain they would scrap emissions tax on fuel and power and that would be all they need to do rather than continue with it and redistribute it in a different direction to Labour.
Plus labour took $500 million out to fund their cycle an walkways in their transport policy.

8:55 Tame's question to Luxon; "You've got multiple investment properties. Will you be lowering your rents?"....
I can’t believe it..but I think I’m going Top! Hadn’t even heard of Raf till I saw his Q&A interview. But at least he has good ideas and some new ways of looking at NZ. Don’t rate his candidates though…but he seems way more intelligent and articulate than either of the Chris’s
Great job Jack!!
Luxon just keeps looking more and more incompetent. Excellent look for our future.... 😢
Jack Tane is more and more obviously a Labor supporter without any doubt in my mind , always an interegation
style of interviewing, for goodness sake asking where troublesome, violent, abusive tenants go after extraction from state housing is without a doubt a low blow for Chris to answer with a snap of the fingers attitude from Jack Tane, Jack Tane needs to interview these Maori offenders himself, lets see how that goes...
What a train wreck Luxon was. can he not give a straight answer?
He didn’t get a chance. Jack kept looking for a gotcha moment. I wanted to watch an interview, not a debate. And no I’m not a nat supporter, and never again a Labour voter after this diabolical govt.
Ouch!! Is it just me or did that get really awkward, really really quickly for a really really really long time 😂.
New Zealanders are great thinker and best in the world, my vote goes to Chris hipkins, if any one have questions for why I am more than happy to reply, time to stand with our prime minister
If you still believe Luxon can adequately fund their tax cuts to landlords "low and middle incomes" after this, you need to be checked out 😂
We didn’t really hear what Luxon had to say because Jack Tame kept rudely interrupting in a very negative way. Jack’s the problem here
@@francesbrown850 that's cause Luxon was trying to spin an answer instead of actually answering the question. If you want to know the policy go listen to the policy announcement or read the policy documents.
Jack is asking simple questions yet is it me or is jack catching him out of promises upon lies being exposed at its finest.....amazing journalism jack nga mihi.
Plenty of questions but never any answer’s
The holes in National's tax plan should scare anyone who uses a public service or public infrastructure... big cuts are inevitable
Deserving and undeserving poor social control - what about people who are disabled or sick - they are totally ignored by the “economy” life is not all about money and who has the most of it. If people work hard all their lives they should be able to own a home - not hearing any reference to anything other than landlords and working families- um there are lots of others out here too.
Disabled and sick KO customers are in specifically designed homes and have people who care for them
That’s segregation- what if they want to live in their own home that they worked hard for? Not all disabled people need a caregiver and can’t work- many can work and their are massively diverse needs - should be based on that and what the people want not shove them in a shoebox all together as that’s where they live - the deinst. Process ended in the early 90’s. We don’t need to regress 30 years.
National blame Labour for over spending .Yet under the Key government,they massively underfunded schools,roads,hospitals .It was really effident at the time.And they let in a whole lot of foreign buyers.Its all very well letting a lot of people in ,but other systems have to be funded otherwise massive problems happen in eg:hospitals,then you get shortage of staff as conditions become worse and so on.The problems we are facing cant just be from a government that has been in 6 years that had their hands tied with a pandemic, some of it is the fault of the previous. If this National Party is similar to the previous National ,then that could be a problem.
it's pretty 'effident' they underfunded your education
national never change going all the way back to muldoon they always leave a disaster luxion will be the same
@@Bruiser223 depends on your 'prespective' 🙃
Good work Jack. How people keep buying National's propaganda about their economic management is beyond me. No plans, only hopes and dreams
I have no doubt it's beyond you. I am sure people living in their cars would welcome a change of direction.
You should take some lessons in basic economics.Labour party people never understand economics.Look at the mess NZ is in at the moment.

Is that good for anyone's economy? If national didnt sell so much houses in there last term to foreign buyers we would have a more affordable housing market for first home buyers. Nationals about to come sell our country off once again and make houses even more unaffordable like they did last time
If Joe Bloggs felt a need to explain every answer to every question instead of directly answering it, he will come across as dodgy. Almost every politician is gulty of doing that to some extent, but Luxon......
He’s a natural at dodgy
Did you never listen to Ardern’s word salad full of excuses, riddles and undeliverable promises?@@Nicole.1828
these were basic questions there was no tricks national figures are bull shit what point of tax cut if we need tax increases to pay for it none one filling a year would be better
I'm excited for National to get in and then blame Labour for all their failures to fix any of the issues we are currently facing for the next four years.
Problems and failures inherited from former national governments
Yup, it will never end. Its a cycle. They really hate when Labour does it now but will do it from day 1 until their last day in office.
Somethings are legitimately problems of previous govts, but all govts use it when they arent seeing as much progress as they would have liked.
Don't really need to blame. everyone already knows labour is a failure
@@kingsinge1324 you miss the point. National will also fail and then blame Labour for all their failures. Both parties are failures both parties have failed NZ completely and utterly. Neither party deserves our support is my point.
@@Me-ui1zy It's more that they use it when they have over promised on their election campaign's and then say well the last govt put us in debt what can we do, after telling us how awesome they are at accounting when in reality they don't actually care all that much about the suffering that is happening across the low and mid socio-economic groups.
Why is the host being so personal with his questions? He is not interested in hearing Luxon's answers
Because he won't answer them, so Jack has to interrupt and ask again to answer the question. Luxon just wants to sidestep and waffle on about anything else.
@@Jerry_Dungarees_sonno it’s because Jack is a bias left wing urban slug
I noticed that too. Think either he dont understand Luxon or he is not concentrating, just pushing from his prepared script prepared by his boss. He is too immature for the job.
Yes he wouldn’t allow him to explain things. We want to hear what he’s got to say we don’t want to hear a rude interviewer interrupting constantly
Jack is a great interviewer.
There is a need to increase the density of housing in a judicious way in making cities more liveable. Removal of interest deductibility etc for landlords will increase the price pressure on cheaper houses as will the trickle down effect of the sale of $2M+ properties to overseas buyers for holiday homes.
Are we going to see more sales of state assets, increase in GST, removal/reducing of government contribution in Kiwisaver and government superannuation scheme just as under the Key Government?
N Party has very little interest in ETS as can be seen with the reluctance of dealing with agricultural greenhouse gas emissions and renaming the carbon credits to carbon dividends then to be used for non climate change purposes. Will this effect New Zealanders, yes, look at people no longer having a home due to flooding and slips, look at insurance premiums and rates. The tax cuts under the National party are minute with the increase of those costs.
I just watched a speech by Mr Luxon. In his speech during Indian trade mission. He said we need to make more wealth. I thought generally there has been a continued movement of wealth a group within NZ.
Luxon says what people want to hear without any concrete solutions.
I have so much respect for Jack Tame how he doesn't let politicians talk like politicians.
The antisocial losers in state houses 🏘 in areas like Point England and Glen Innes are terrible.
They occupy subsidized homes 🏡 alongside working people and they intimidated their neighborhood with late night parties, theft of copper gutters, shoes at doorsteps, burnouts and reckless driving the list goes on, I even had a friend have his security camera stolen, the footage gave a picture of the thiefs face, you still can't get police to do something about these people and in doing so put your family and home at further risk.
Subsidies for lazy losers have to stop.
We have hundreds of thousands of people who have done all the long term life choices, like studying 📖 at school and university, put in a decade of career growth work, paying taxes that pay for some scumbags to live next door and do drugs and overall be a piece of 💩.
We need a fair society, where the working people have more than those who don't even try.
In my opinion these people should be put in a work camp well away from the rest of us.
I'm done with living in worse rental accommodation and paying more than someone else who made every wrong life decision along the way.
A government, media and ideology that is all about propping up Losers over good working law abiding NZ’ers.
your solution is to vote in a guy from a private school who smacks people with hunks of wood way to go! do the subsidies for lazy losers include the $2 billion we pay in benefit allowances so the renter rorters can buy Porsche Evs
Work Camp???
Congratulations! You win the award for most facist comment of the election season!
Well done 👏
Society ain't fair. Just move somewhere else instead of moaning. That behaviour happens everywhere people that are working do that same shit 😂
So people should ask the National Candidate to release the modelling. One by one.
Needs a bit more empathy and humanity - some people can’t function- so they are relegated to poverty? That’s what it’s sounding like. I used to think like that too- that people might be lazy when actually they are traumatized- so it’s not lazy it’s broken. Fix the broken or at least keep trying to. Not hearing much of that- treatment is good, it’s in no way measured by someone else’s goals when someone will recover. Maybe they never can- that doesn’t mean they should have nothing and be happy- be better than that.
I love you Jack Tame, like seriously. The best
@HuteAsoli I say vote different this year...neither of them 👌
Jacks on fire nice grill him up 👆👆🙂
Mr Luxon is becoming more and more comfortable in pretending his numbers add up, he squirms a little and hates hearing his policies read back to him, but carries on with his nonsense assuming New Zealanders are stupid. He knows he cannot sell 20 Billion in property in 4 years hence he will not release the modelling. We deserve better than what he offers.
Have you read the 30 pages ?
@@Tearoha1987hi. Just wondering where can I find this 30 page document? I've found and read the "National's Back Pocket Boost" pdf, but it's only 29 pages, most of which is pictures and tables.
Have you read it, could you give me some bullet points or some page references so I know where to look myself. Thanks.
Also have you considered that he was squirming because the interviewer was so rude and aggressive and wouldn’t let him talk?
@@francesbrown850he wasn’t rude, Luxon just wasn’t answering the questions. So many questions just needed a yes or no answer, and Luxon needing to elaborate and explain something that should have just been a no is just embarrassing.
I do not support anyone who promotes the WEF, and says Bill Gates is a 'good guy'. I don't want a party blaming our country for too much carbon and ignoring all the planes they fly around in.( Like Jacinda using our airforce planes as her private jet for several years!) Enough with climate change funds to go overseas or those who think we should end farming.
Go Jack
Luxum is having a shocker ! Is it me or does he feel dodgy, tad creepy and a liar
If there is one thing National is good at doing its selling assets (aka social houses) to overseas investors. The political forecast for the next 4 to 8 years is going to be incompetence followed by mediocrity.
What we need to do with unruly Kainga Ora tenants is something that works from overseas and that is put them in temporary container housing in an industrial area altogether and they have to behave themselves for a certain period of time before being allowed back into a house amongst the rest of society. You'll soon find most will improve their behaviour when surrounded by people that make them uncomfortable.
I have seen first hand the shit they've been allowed to get away with of late and the huge sums of money being poured into their properties whilst they just move them elsewhere to do it again. They typically uses their kids as a shield from any real punishment, because we can't make them suffer due to their terrible parents.
So well said! It’s a complete sense on entitlement and that you can act with complete impunity! Why are there just no consequences for wrong behaviour, defies all sensibilities
Here here!!! I lived a nightmare with bad neighbors for two years and Houseing NZ and Police have no power to move them out after the terrorism they have put all this complex through....
Will the Act Party do this? They talk about being bold.
@@shaunhoward6838 I have lived that too and my next-door neighbours recently couldn't take it anymore so decided to sell in a hurry during winter. The terrible tenants even managed to tank their first two open homes putting desirable buyers off. So, in a very unhanded manner the KO regional manager went to their third open home in plain clothes and bought it and then instantly kicked the terrible tenant next-door out days after they got the keys to it...
I am so mad about it! I am now surrounded by their properties and the new tenants of the house they just bought aren't great and have already damaged my property and do regular drug deals in the street (the house is way too nice to be one of theirs too, had tens of thousands spent on it in upgrades inside the last year before it was sold).
And KO have just finished spending tens of thousands fixing the other house back up (which had 50k spent on it after the last tenant just 2 years ago wrecked it) and will be sticking new tenants in there in the next few weeks - which I am really not looking forward to. I have lived here a very long time and it was never this bad in the past. I feel like they are forcing me to sell up as well from their lack of willingness to enforce their own tenancy agreements and they just pass the buck to other agencies like the Police - who have said to me unprompted multiple times in the past how useless Kainga Ora are.
@@Hellknight27 I feel your pain over this matter!!! I'm in Christchurch so by sounds of it's a wide problem and reds have really dropped the ball on this and crime in New Zealand in general.... people have lost all respect for each other and law and order in NZ 💯 sad times!
Great interview
Jack is a good old leftie who doesn't believe bad people should face consequences!
Woke Leftist Jacinda follower & Helen Clarke worshiper. Jack get a real job go work for Labour.
Jaxk is not a lefty.
Jack is a rude interviewer that won’t allow people to speak
@@francesbrown850 Luxon was a trainwreck, he is not fast on his feet and showed he doesn't have a clue without his scripts telling him what to say.
National's policies are a joke and have no credibility. Luxon, who has led National's policy development, has clearly shown in this interview that he is not competent, not credible or not trustable as a prime minister of NZ Inc.
Completely disagree with you on that he’s going to be an amazing Prime minister and can’t wait for October it can’t come soon enough 💙💙
Act is preferred doesn’t dither & wants drastic change away from our Socialist Welfare Benefit State.
Sadly if we Do NOT remodel NZ away from A Social Welfare State it WIL be our Demise to True Third World status.
I think Jack Tames goal was to make Christopher Luxon look incompetent and unsure. Jack is becoming a bully as an interviewer.
''hasn't thought it through...'' got it.
guys, he's determined 😂
Nationals Kiwibuild moment right here
Jack you are awesome!
Thats it, I'm voting green.
It's sad if Nationals polling numbers represent disgruntled labour voters.
Sadder still that the green party wouldn't get a fair shot at a coalition with the right wing.
Even sadder that so many people feel politically homeless at this point.
This interview really drums home just how hollow political discourse has become.
Imagine you were buying a second hand car and you asked the seller, are there any signs of mechanical issues? And they replied - To the best of my knowledge this car has one of the best types of paint and the paint is secure and stable.
Yeah nah, I was asking about the engine really mate.
Again, this car has one of the best kinds of paint and...
Yeah yeah, okie dokie mate.
Wouldn't it be great if we pushed for more transparency and direct communication of ideas. With the aim to make government decisions more citizen curated, rather than leaving governments to make mistakes that they then spend more time hiding than fixing.
We are electing people who are knowingly seeking positions of power that have deception baked into them.
Then we're upset when we feel we have been misled.
Something new needs to be nurtured by all of us, legacy parties aren't likely to push for anything to be structurally different within politics, they depend on the current system to get elected.
I'll vote for something different.
Many thanks Jack
He didnt handle that well. Eyes goin everywhere, blinking @round 100 revs per minute. Come across real dodgy. Only reason he's there is bosom pals with john key.
I think he was all over the place and uncomfortable because the interviewer was rude and aggressive and wouldn’t let him explain things
@@francesbrown850 thanks. MMM not to sure i agree. As die hard labor all my 80 yrs, i will be voting national or act. This country will not survive another 3 yrs of
these political thugs that infiltrated labor.
Luxon needs his hour of reading cause he can't seem to comprehend a question...🤔
I’m sure he understood the questions but he just didn’t get a chance to speak without interruption
@@francesbrown850 some of the questions were very simple and didn't require a whole introduction or repeat, A simple yes or no would have been suitable. He had enough time if he actually wanted to answer or knew how to answer.
Chris just couldnt bring himself to say "who cares where they go, we will give the house to someone who will appreciate it"
When Jack kept asking where they will go.
Bloody good on your for pushing back on Jacks incorrect assumptions and not letting him walk all over you 💪
Jack is like a 7th form schoolboy.He is only trying to embarrass Luxon.
Yes it’s very difficult for Christopher Luxon to deal with the aggressive interviewer style
God help us
Come on nz lets be careful what we wish for next month
Watching Q&A programme, reading Mr Luxon emails, watching all videos on media pages, I am here to say, that you are actually selling to them all your financial strategies, Plan of your National party constantly on every day basis, while you are fighting for the seat of Prime Minister, which is obvious. I have never seen campaign from 2023 for the whole history, living in NZ. Listen, I have never heard much about previous Ministers this much and they occupy the seat without meeting expectations of NZ population...Actually want to say in support of Mr Luxon not to answer all questions widely, showing the way to rule government, where even Jack understands now.
