    This interview shows how analytical David is, rather than emotional. He's a professional engineer by training so this makes sense. It's an uphill battle for him as politics is largely fought at an emotional level, but he is breaking through. I hope he gets the chance to implement his ideas and prove they can lift New Zealand socially and economically. God knows we need it now.

    Great interview. I actually think this shows another side to David Seymour. He’s clearly very passionate yet grounded, and comes across as someone honestly wanting to hear the other side and willing to work with people he doesn’t agree with.

    This country has gone down hill so fast under Labour. From what I've seen of Christopher Luxon he seems like a good man, with a good head on his shoulders. ACT with David at the helm brings another thoughtful group into the mix.
    I don't like politics, I'd rather not have to pay much attention but to pull this country out of the nose dive it's in then good people need to vote for an ACT+National govt. Labour has got to go.

      Must agree. The way Tame interviews have been getting on my last nerve lately. They are more interested in making the person look foolish than actually letting them show what they stand for. It’s so arrogant & disingenuous. To think they run this scam of journalism with our money makes it even more intolerable.

      I don't understand why some parties (mainly on the left) are trying to create division between us. We are all one people. That was the point of the treaty, to ensure that all Maori were treated like everyone else under the crown. Maori should have the same rights as everyone else, no more, no less.

    During the period 2006 to 2017 unemployment was 4-5 %. During 2010 to 2013 the average was higher peaking at 7%. In 2017 the rate was 4.74% with labour force of 2.7 m. By 2022 the labour force was 2.9 m with an unemployment rate of 3.25%. So is that an improvement?

    • @MandySam13
      @MandySam13 Před 11 měsíci +3

      Depends on how the unemployment is calculated. They are even counting people with 1-2 hours of employment a week as “employed”, when clearly the majority of their income comes from benefits. This just gives an appearance of success when none exists. Consistent with many of the number fudging this government has done to date.

    I liked Jacinda but Labour encompasses to much incompetence or poor ethics, same for Greens - I love Chloe but is she on the wrong side ? Both parties at their core try to make a difference... just ideologies never lead to where common sense does. David Seymour can argue very sharp but common sense seems to always prevail and that is also consistent about him. Nats try hard but they lack leadership like the playground where an ex-CEO tries to take his career to the next level... then Hipkins... "in it for you" is that a joke?

      Money is not there to spend irresponsibly. You’ll never be wealthy as a country if that’s the attitude to spending. Labour our run on an ideology which is Marxism. They don’t believe in individual autonomy just control. Greens don’t do ANYTHING for the environment. They are too busy promoting radical gender ideology. I feel sorry for people like you who can’t see through these utter frauds. The Greens when Janette Fitzsimmons & Rod Donald ran it is not the Greens of today. Marama has no class & James can’t even tell the truth about his degree. If you vote for them you are just asking for the destruction of this country. Good luck with that.
