BUGGER (AGAIN)


It looks like Labour is shaping up to lose the election again. Bugger!
David Lange said some time ago about capital gains tax - "nice idea but it would lose us the election"
Phil Goff seems to have forgotten this or, if not, badly handled the release of the intention.
In fact the proposal will be good for the typical Labour supporter and has a hell of a lot of attractions for the middle ground National voter. It is the Key's Cronies set that would have most to lose. Labour however totally buggered up the spin that should have been put on this. They underestimated the thickness of most people and the laziness they have when interpreting information. What they should have led with is statements like "Your family house and rental investment is safe. Don't Panic. We are after the big boys who have been getting away with paying no tax for years. Let's get them!" But no, they dribbled out the information in a totally bumbling way. I have been a Goff supporter for years but now must admit that it is time for him to go. Labour has to quickly find a charismatic character to combat smiling boy Shonkey.
