Um, no. What we actually need to ween ourselves off is oil. Finite, polluting, increasingly expensive fossil fuels. That's a problem. This "Debt crisis" is an invention and a distraction.

Jack Tame asks Nicky No Boats why her government are on track to borrow about as much in 5 years as Labour did in 6. *Including* the pandemic response years.

If you haven’t seen the #JackTame interview with Winston Peters, you should!
