In 2008, 2025 seemed like a time frame by which we could close the gap. It gave us 17 years to do so. Given that we have fallen further behind in the past three years, and the Prime Minister does not want to move as fast as the Taskforce proposed previously, it seems we will need more time

Act would push for a referendum on raising the superannuation age to 67 as part of a confidence and supply agreement with National, leader Don Brash says.
I recall (former Act leader) Rodney Hide saying Act cares more about the future of New Zealand than the future of its own party, and I like to believe that that's my concern also
I haven't spent the last week fascinated with Winston Peters and the week before that, fascinated with Don Brash and John Banks. I'll be fighting every day this week to get our message across. The other candidates, they can do their own thing
Only time will tell, there are 10 days to go. I would have thought that after the prime minister made his views pretty clear, National Party supporters will, in due course, see the logic.
The current anti-MMP campaign is backed by the Business Round Table, Peter Shirtcliffe and Don Brash and, once again, undeclared donors. The young frontman, Jordan Williams, was in the media earlier this year managing Don Brash’s takeover of the ACT Party. This is not a push for change from ordinary New...

Taping it was certainly unethical and probably illegal
If Don Brash does make it back into Parliament, then he must be sitting opposite him to hold him to account to rebut any of Dr Brashes ideas that are anti good race relations.
History both in New Zealand and elsewhere suggests that when party leaders leave that role, they are best to leave parliament
The banks got us into all this mess and our Governments have been silent allies. When the people finally wake up to it all and start disbelieving experts like Don Brash and the IMF, we will finally get an economic system that doesn’t collapse.
Yes I did talk with John Banks about Act's leadership. Don Brash went a bit astray with his proposals to legalise dope smoking and I would far rather deal with Catherine Isaac if she becomes leader
I have found that the Maori Party voice at Cabinet has been essential in opposing the very different views of the ACT Party. We need to be at the table to oppose many of the views put forward by their leader Don Brash.
Although far from strong when outlining his party’s economic plans, he maintained the momentum gained over his attacks on ACT’s Don Brash and National leader John Key over the teapot tapes
Business might have to suck it up and vote for Banks to give National a coalition partner that at least thinks about business ... The Act Party has lost its way and needs refreshing. I doubt John Banks is that but he's the only chance Act has of being re-elected. Don Brash should go - he is yesterday's ...
It's my belief that what will happen is that Don Brash will probably be offered some sort of diplomatic posting overseas to get him out of the way.
No, I don’t agree with that, in the same way I don’t agree with Don Brash saying legalise marijuana ... But the point is, we’re a moderate/centrist government, and we have parties to the right and left of us.
Today’s cup of tea photo opportunity totally contradicts John Key’s earlier statements about ACT leader Don Brash, the man he rolled as National leader. He needs to explain how he can do a deal with ACT to bring such ‘extremists’ back into Parliament
