No national fan but this might be the only decent ideas to come out of this party imo. Not enough for me to vote for them but man I wish labour would stop letting Auckland and Otago bullshit their way through securing their duopoly at the expense of our countries medical system.
Of course, the plan to fund a new medical school is sketchy at best. Medicine is obviously underfunded already, perhaps I’d hear an argument that the money would be better spent increasing wages for our existing doctors. That said, I’m of the opinion a new medical school couldn’t hurt us.
If you are going to spend that sort of money it has to come from somewhere. Will they raise taxes? Divert spending from elsewhere?
Raise taxes on everyone who isn’t me :)
Nah I don’t have the answer, money is what all the issues boil down to in the end.
