Labour Policy Dodgeball
May 10, 2021
By NZB3
Since Hostage Release Day back in April 2021 when the travel ‘bubble’ to Australia opened up it’s been all go.
NZB3 predicted that Labour 6.0 would take a new and tougher stance in the lead up to that date. You’re either with them or against them and that date, 6 April, was the cut-off for getting on board the Labour train.
Sure enough, all sorts of uncompromising and radical changes have been hatching out over the past month. Here’s a digest of some of the ones observed…

The Dodgeball Game is On
This is more than nothing, Labour 6.0 are getting up to speed and running hard now. They’re making changes that will stick.
Watch now as massive changes are made to the Public Sector (especially schools) during a time of pay freeze. Would you like to keep your Public Service job? Yes? Then you’d better not get in the way of what’s coming. The choker chain is already pretty firm.
Be careful what industry you work in, especially if there’s some idiot involved in it who thinks something would be gained by it being politicised. The Labour dodgeball might next be thrown at you!
