- Description
The cartoon shows Finance Minister Bill English creeping up behind a very large kiwi and plucking out a feather which causes the kiwi to look rather startled. Refers to a 'softly, softly' approach by Bill English who announced a review of our tax system in May, to be led by Victoria University's Professor Bob Buckle. It is due to report in December, about the time that the government should be able to make some more realistic claims about the country coming out of recession. While the Key administration has backed away from cuts, is it instead re-gathering its forces for what could be a nasty attack on how the tax burden is shared in this country? (Notes from Tim Watkin)
