There are around 340,000 private rental dwellings in New Zealand, many owned by mum and dad investors who have put their savings into rental property as part of their retirement plan. Any decision by John Key and National to punitively punish these people – because the government can’t get its own spending under control – is contemptible. As is any further attempt to politically portray them as pariahs.

I agree; however let us not forget who is also part of that Government and, indeed, providing its majority...
Half of National are landlords themselves, hypocrites.
You've got me fucked Elijah, please expand on your comment.

Let's for once see ACT do something. Line a real taxfree threshold - earn more than 100k, pay no tax.
Well said, indeed.
The mere possibility that rental housing could be taxed even more shows the incredibly duplicity of John Key, the spineless PM, who has now become infamous for his total passivity.
I'm sure in line with its latest actions the racist Maori Party will happily endorse this.
