Green Party co-leader Russel Norman says he is not looking forward to extra dollars in his back pocket if National is able to implement it’s proposed tax cuts announced today.
The Green Party is concerned that National plans to borrow more money from overseas to fund planned tax cuts, at a time of worldwide financial turmoil.
Russel gives his view on the current global financial meltdown and suggests a return to infrastructure investment modelled on ‘The New Deal’ policies used in America during the Great Depression. He also suspects the government’s books might be further in the red than the figures on Monday suggest.
