This is what the protesters are calling a war on the poor!

Lindsay Mitchell summarises the on the poor that some on the are claiming the Government has:

  • Insulation of over 200,000 homes
  • increased access to GPs
  • an intensive campaign to reduce rheumatic fever
  • boosted budgeting advisory services
  • low cost procurement of household essentials like washing machines
  • low interest to combat loan sharks
  • partnering with charities providing food and clothing to poor
  • home visitation programmes like Early Start
  • extended -related rents to non-government housing
  • Whanau Ora

Yeah that is a real war on the poor.
