Telling lies.

Gordon from Halswell

Is it possible for people to stop calling serving people LIARS unless you have PROOF that it was a LIE.
Breaking a promise is not a LIE unless you have proof that the person knew it was not possible at the time of saying it, even then it might be misleading and wishful thinking.
When politicians are campaigning they say they will do all sorts of things, that is based on information they have to hand at that time.
If they win and find out their information that they based there 'promises' on were not correct, or they have to work with a coalition partner so have to modify their stance.
Lets not be so blindly judgmental and name call, just to discredit a side you do not like.
Sure, point out poor performance as long as it factually based not just for the sake of ribbing the opposition
Have a good day.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
