Nat’s health policy doesn’t add up.
The National Party policy on waiting lists shows they either have no new ideas about health or they aren’t telling New Zealanders the whole story.
Minister of Health David Cunliffe said the National Party plan simply didn’t add up and was a pale, unimaginative and unworkable imitation of current Labour Party police
“Either John Key can’t add or he simply isn’t giving the New Zealand public the full picture. I note Mr Key doesn’t tell us where these additional 800 frontline health workers going to come from.”
“Mr Key is being deliberately misleading or he simply can’t do his sums. Either way, such a man is not fit to be Prime Minister.”
Mr Cunliffe said the only way the National Party could make its figures for theatre construction work was by privatisation.
