Posted 23rd of October to the Southland Times Newspaper Invercargill NZ
James Weir Wrote in this Newspaper Oct 22nd that New Zealand had an Influx of 45,400 people in the last 12 months
and a lot of them returning Kiwis, but where do they all plan Fit?
All the good Jobs are in Auckland and they can’t cope with their infrastructure with the population they have.
Christchurch is wasted after those quakes with thousands of houses gone forever. Wellington and Dunedin
have very little room to expand and Invercargill has a few clouds hanging over it literally and figuratively....
The Heartland seems to be sparsely populated but I wager our returning sons and daughters from high paying overseas gigs are not looking for service Jobs that don’t pay.
Let me Guess, they will all want Trophy Homes on Trophy Properties.... In or around Auckland... Failing that, a Queenstown style B&B of their own.
Yes it’s another kick in the guts for the kiwis who stayed on scratching out a living who see their property dreams disappearing over the Horizon because they “stayed on” here to support Family & friends or because they did not have the cunning luck to have inherited wealth. Now it seems the National Party with it’s inherited base has to fix this mess because the Labour Party is out to Lunch with it’s internal power struggles. So just what is the answer from the Beehive? Hard Work! More Growth and More People they say!
I fear pretty soon the Whole Country will be out to lunch if this is the extent of our political vocabulary because in stark reality they are telling us to shut up and find more luck.
