- Date
- 2011
- Reference
- DCDL-0017018
- Description
Prime Minister John Key grins cheerfully as he sets fire to a bonfire made of banknotes that represent 'tax-cuts'; he yells 'Fire! Fire!' and in the next breath says 'Sell some assets!' On the other side of the fire is Finance Minister Bill English who is forking more banknotes onto it. Context - The parlous state of the economy; tax cuts were made in the last budget but then cancelled out by raising GST thus creating a general rise in the cost of living. John Key is now considering selling state owned assets - selling off the family silver.
