New Zealand First has introduced a Member's Bill to introduce the 2020/21 Living Wage of $22.10 per hour.

"The left-wing government has been too stingy to back a living wage for workers, and instead has only set the minimum wage at $20 per hour- significantly less than the 2020/21 Living Wage." says dr imnofox.

"New Zealand First believes all workers should get fair pay for a fair day's work. It shouldn't be up to the government to top-up workers' wages through WINZ handouts. That's just the government subsidising poor treatment of working people."

When called out by New Zealand First, the GreenLeft and the Worker's Party were quick to point the blame at their coalition partners.

"Not even a week into the new government, and Ministers are pointing fingers and deflecting blame. Anyone could have expected this from a five-headed monster. When I was a doctor, everyone in the profession knew that one head was universal, two heads was standard, and three was unusual. But five heads? That is a mutant, call the Police." said dr imno on Twitter™.

"When this bill goes through parliament, the GreenLeft and the Workers Party will have a chance to turn their words into action by voting our bill into law. If what they say is true, I should have no trouble in finding majority support. Worker's deserve more from this government!" says dr imno.
