When things are so bad for National, NZFirst has to campaign for Chris Bishop. It's a fucking clown show now. Hilarious stuff. 🤡

There are no 9 taxes and he knows it - he is a Trumpian 'slogan' man - but the tragedy is IT IS GETTING HIM VOTES. I fear we are destined for a 2nd term of this greed riddled Coalition - apparently Seymour will become finance minister. LET THAT SINK IN

Please name every one of Labour’s “9” taxes so the public can understand what you mean, cos there are no new 9 taxes from Labour.

This is a tough one: Tax breaks for landlords v staffing essential health facilities Such a difficult choice. But National understood where their priorities lie Landlords, every time

Replying to @foundersam @dbseymour
@ElectoralCommNZ this post by David Seymour is misleading. A politician advertising that anyone can vote, but those who are not enrolled cannot since October 25. This violates your political advertising rules around elections.
