  • Struggling Kiwis Pay More While Luxon Pays Less — The Hypocrisy Is Staggering
    Oct 23 2025
    Christopher Lunon's $8,000 rates relief on his Waiheke mansion is a slap in the face to struggling Kiwis. I reckon you can't make this up. Christopher Luxon, the Prime Minister who tells the rest of us to live within our means has saved $8,000.In terms of his rates bill for the year, so it's $25,000. It's now $17,000 on his $10 million Waiheke Island property that he says is not worth $10 million, eight grand on a property most of us couldn't afford to walk past, let alone own. This is the same man who's refused to cap rates, increases for ordinary New Zealanders like you and me, the same guy who says councils need to be fiscally disciplined while families in the suburbs are.Cutting back on food and fuel and school costs to survive. But Luxon, he's mortgage free and still he's asking for help with his rate. Bill, could you just lower it for me? Please? Let that sink in. He's worth millions. And I'm not anti wealth. I'm not anti wealth. I think wealth's really important. Okay. But he shows this guy's wealthy, right?Then wealthy people create jobs, right? So he's worth millions. He owns this luxury retreat on Waiheke and the system still finds a way to funnel him $8,000 in fewer costs. The kind of support meant for people doing it tough, not people with a personal vineyard view of the hauraki gulf It's the hypocrisy that stings, I think, because while you're being told to suck up, the rates, hikes and shoulder the cost of living.The Prime Minister is laughing. All the way to the bank.

  • How to Buy a Home without a Bank Loan | ft Chris Smith
    Oct 21 2025
    Labour’s so-called Future Fund — a vague, detail-free “cornerstone policy” that’s all slogan and no substance. Is this a bold vision for New Zealand’s economy, or just KiwiBuild 2.0? Duncan calls it what it is: a fantasy fund, not a future fund.Then, a real solution with real results — Chris Smith from BLOCX joins the show to share how his 1% deposit, no-bank-loan homeownership model is changing the game for Kiwis locked out of the housing market. Backed by Cliff Curtis and now gaining international attention, this could be the breakthrough Kiwi families have been waiting for.Get in touch with Duncan - duncan@rova.nz and join us on the socials.
