MPs are supposed to reflect the will of the people, not the will of Sue Bradford and Ruth Dyson. And Helen Clark said a while ago, the referendum would not be held with the election, so she has to stick to her words. She is a very strong leader, its just that she is not Margaret Thatcher.

699541	2008-08-24 00:34:00	My wife was a single mother for 9 years under Nats she would have had to put her boy in day care and then work, how is that raising the boy properly? And don't forget how Muldoon bankrupted the country as Nat leader. I won't be voting labour because I think they are better but because the opposition is not good enough.	gary67 (56)
699542	2008-08-24 00:55:00	heh, My wife is married to me, And we are struggling not to put our kids into daycare so she can go to work. If I didn't get a whacking great pay rise (and I only got that because my dad happens to own the company) to coincide with the second kid we wouldn't have had a choice, as it is we are going backwards, No matter how tight we run the budget we are still spending more then I make. So, Now I'm going to take a (another) loan against the house so we can set her up in a home based business, If it fails then we will go under, If it succeeds we will lose our "working for families" benefit (something I argued not to accept) and no doubt be taxed to the point of why bother.

Pity they forget they are meant to act on our interests, Not their own.	Metla (12)
699544	2008-08-24 01:36:00	And while I'm at it, We have a $1600 bill from the IRD, They say they over-paid us our working for family's benefit, Even though we listed our income at $5000 more then I make, they still managed to over pay us? Bull**. Whoever is behind this sort of crap needs to be dragged through the streets and beaten, and then shot.Twice. How in hard would it be just to tax us less, You ing moron s, You can stick your in benefit and your in tax bill right up your in arse, right alongside your anti-smaking bill and your in bull refendum and its in million dollar price tag. em all, ** em up the arse. (and for what its worth, My wife went back to work when my first son was 1, so forgive me if my heart pumps custard that some single mums can only sit on their arses for 6 damn years before being forced to be a contributing member of society)	Metla (12)

699546	2008-08-24 02:21:00	Looks like Metla is heading for a heart attack. Ooops, don't suppose thats possible tho' because judging by the majority of his posts he hasn't got one. Martynz	martynz (5445)
